RULES:

Everyone gets a 1-0 start for the Eagles winning on Thursday.

Most wins at end of regular season wins this thread.

All picks are straight up... no spread shit.

All wins count as one, all losses count as one, etc.

[Millennial_Messiah]

millennial_messiah week 1:

ATL @ PHI -- Hindsight is 20/20. I did pick the Eagles a long time ago, for the record. However I'll give everyone who participates this win.

BUF @ BAL -- Don't really like either team this year, but BUF is truly awful with no QB or OL this year.
PIT @ CLE -- Cleveland shouldn't be winless this year by any stretch, but I don't buy from Hard Knox that they're quite ready yet.
CIN @ IND -- Andrew Luck's return. Colts roster isn't great, but Bengals should be one of the worst teams in the league this year as they bottom out and rebuild.
TEN @ MIA -- Not too big on either team this year, but Tennessee has a somewhat better QB and slightly better roster.
HOU @ NE -- Texans always put up a fight in these games, and they have two monster DEs, but they can never quite beat Brady on the road.
KC @ LAC -- Could go either way, but Philip Rivers is overdue for a good year. They'll start off well this year for a change.
JAC @ NYG -- This is my upset pick, but I think the Giants are improved from a year ago and with the return of OBJ, will find a way to win their home opener this year.
SEA @ DEN -- Never, ever, pick against the Broncos at home in September. Almost impossible to win in the altitude paired with the heat. And Seattle stinks on the road.
SF @ MIN -- Could go either way, but the Vikings are very strong at home when they're good. Don't see Cousins losing his big debut at home.
TB @ NO -- A clear mismatch.
WAS @ AZ -- Redskins have an experienced QB. They're the better team. AP returns to 'Zona. Cardinals are another team with 2-3 star players and a bad roster.
DAL @ CAR -- I don't think the Panthers' offense is good enough to move the ball bunch on what will be one of the best defenses in 2018.
CHI @ GB -- Bears will be good, but they need time to jell. Week one at Lambeau isn't favorable for any road team, and GB has by far the better QB for now.

NYJ @ DET -- Don't like the Lions at all this year, their roster is crud and they're worst in their division by far, but the Jets are in total rebuild.
LAR @ OAK -- Rams are simply better team by far. Analytical millennial coach vs. dumby hellbent on playing '90s ball. No home field advantage for OAK here.

[Millennial_Messiah]

@spurraider21 week 1:


ATL @ PHI

BUF @ BAL -- lopsided matchup
PIT @ CLE -- lopsided matchup
CIN @ IND -- really want to take the bengals, as i think it will take luck a few games to get his feet wet (though i think he'll have a great comeback season). but when in doubt, i'll take the home team.
TEN @ MIA -- tannehill is getting slept on here. i like them at home. titans will take a few games to get rolling
HOU @ NE -- patriots are notoriously mediocre to start the season. houston is locked and loaded this year. brady will look bad, people will start saying "he's done" and then by years end he'll be a top 3 qb
KC @ LAC -- kept going back and forth on this one. chargers usually dont start off that well, bosa is out, secondary banged up. chiefs O is going to overwhelm, even with mahomes throwing a pick or two
JAC @ NYG -- tough pick. not a big fan of jags on the road, and giants O should bounce back in a big way. they finally have a running back, and OBJ is nuts. but jaguars roster is top to bottom just so much better...
SEA @ DEN -- keenum isn't much, but he's an upgrade to siemian/lynch. broncos O will be solid this year, and pass rush is what it is. seattle is gonna be bad this year.
SF @ MIN -- 49ers will be a fun team this year, but vikings are stacked and at home
TB @ NO -- easiest pick of the week. at home vs inferior team with backup qb
WAS @ AZ -- i think people are sleeping on arizona a bit. i know bradford will inevitably go down this year, but until he does, he's still effective enough. and people forgot how good dave johnson is. i love peterson, but washington is bad
DAL @ CAR -- just a better team than dallas, and at home. cowboys are gonna be ugly to watch this year tbh
CHI @ GB -- really wanna be edgy and take the bears, but can't in lambeau

NYJ @ DET -- not takin a rookie qb on the road. detroit is mediocre, but stafford will put up some points and i dont see Darnold keeping up on the scoreboard
LAR @ OAK -- weekly homer special

I was into ATS wagering for years. You simply cannot win without doing homework, which is very time consuming.

Go ahead tell me what teams suck ATS heading into a bye? Who sucks as a RD. who shines in the role of HF? And it goes on and on....

What team has never covered in the eastern time zone? Who is 22-1 ATS at home vs the AFC West?


Just have some light weight fun without all that, yep...SU.

10-4-1 for week 1.

[spurraider21]

8-6-1

[Avante]

So we count the Eagles game?

11-4-1

Why a loss?

You simply cannot take a rookie QB on the road in his first game, so I had the right side.

Same with Chiefs on the road vs Chargers, sorta.

Ok the Skins are better than I thought.

Nobody saw Buc's beating Saints.


It usually takes me a few weeks to get the new season. Usually hit 9-11 I don't expect anything different this season.

[spurraider21]

neither DD nor I counted the eagles game

My first thought was Ravens, this was because the Bengals have totally sucked in any.....only game going on..."spot". Then I started thinking about the Ravens. So they beat up on a no QB Bills team at home......big deal.

So how can I ignore the fact the Bengals have sucked in night games?

Yep, struggling with this. So in search of a reason to pick a side.

The Bengals John Ross could beat Tyreek Hill*** in a 40, his 4.22 the fastest 40 ever ran at the combine.

*** Hill winning everything over that, he has speed endurance something Ross doesn;t have.


Hmmmm?

As the league pointed out Friday, home teams playing on all other days than Thursdays have won at a higher clip (https://twitter.com/NFLfootballinfo/status/518069063650521088) than Thursday home teams since 2012. Indeed, this is true.
But what happens when we expand the search back to 2006, when the NFL added a Thursday-night package of games?
At that point, the pendulum swings a little more toward the home sides.
According to the Spreadapedia (http://spreadapedia.com/nfl-point-spread-database) database, home teams have won at 62.4 percent clip on Thursdays since 2006. This 58-35 mark includes NFL Kickoff and Thanksgiving games.
By contrast, on all other days in this same span, home sides have won at a 56.6 percent rate (1,140-873-3).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There is a reason this game is now a pick em. Did open with the Ravens a small road fav. The public jumped on the Bengals.


I found what I was looking for, a reason to back a side.


The Ravens are 1-5 in their past six games at Paul Brown Stadium, with the average margin of defeat over 10 points per game. Quarterback Joe Flacco has struggled throughout his career against Cincinnati, amassing 19 touchdowns, 23 interceptions and a 72.3 passer rating in 19 games.

Yep, backing the Bengals in this "spot".

[Millennial_Messiah]

I update the standings at end of every calendar month... Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec.

[Avante]

Really had a hard time with this one. Fist it was the Ravens, then Bengals, then.....

I did find some things favoring the Bengals in this "spot" and they are at home. So as I said...Bengals.

But....????

[TheCultOfPersonality]

11-4-1


I got the Bengals for this game (this was a tough one), and I will have the rest of my picks later.

[Spurtacular]

Can we get a no conditions clause? Make a pick and stick with it.

[Avante]

This is what homework will get ya.

Week 2


CAR @ ATL - Falcons quarterback isn't good, and they have too many big chess pieces missing. Carolina out for blood this year, their defense is incredible.

LAC @ BUF - BUF's roster is awful and shouldn't win more than 2 games this year.

MIN @ GB - Never pick against the great Aaron Rodgers at home. Aaron Rodgers is the GOAT and it's in Lambeau.

HOU @ TEN - really, they're going to trot out Gabbert? Texans rebound here after a rough week 1 matchup.

CLE @ NO - Any given Sunday, but no way the Saints can lose again here, right?

MIA @ NYJ - God damn that Darnold guy is good. It's about damn time the Cheatriots get some real competition in their division for a pleasant change.

KC @ PIT - Steelers have had their number in recent years, but these are different teams. They can't stop Mahomes the way they stopped Axmiff, Bell is still out, and Big Ben has regressed.

PHI @ TB - Fitzmagic's luck runs out against this elite opponent.

IND @ WAS - Adrian Peterson may be the real deal, and Chris Thompson is the perfect complement to him. Axmiff always plays well after moving to a new team, and the Colts' defense is atrocious.

AZ @ LAR - Love Fitzgerald but the Cardinals have one of the worst rosters in the NFL this year, a new coach who isn't good, and the Rams are big dogs in the NFC.

DET @ SF - Detroit continues to be garbage in 2018. Garoppolo returns to his usual form because he's at home and not playing the mighty Vikings defense.

OAK @ DEN - Don't, I repeat, DON'T, bet against the Broncos at home in September! Almost impossible to win on the road in the heat AND altitude. Seahawks paid for it, all right.

NE @ JAX - This one is extremely tough to call, but the damn Cheatriots always tend to win these road regular-season-AFC-championship type games every year. Plus, Fournette might not play or be 100% if he does. Shame on the NFL for scheduling this one in week 2.

NYG @ DAL - The Giants simply aren't good, and the Cowboys rebound from an expected stinker in week 1 at home. Good vibes all around on a Sunday night at home. When's the last time the Cowboys have lost a Sunday night home game? And it's not like they don't play a lot of them. I count zero in the Zeke era with Zeke playing.

SEA @ CHI - Major talent mismatch here. Chicago rebounds from their tragic loss of a big upset win last weekend to beat the Seahawks who are a bad road team and don't have a very good roster.

I'd almost be willing to say, we should all agree to omit ties as well as TNF games (EXCLUDING Thanksgiving games which DO count)... besides the fact this thread started after opening TNF night, not everyone has time to make picks in the middle of the week...

everyone agreed?

[Millennial_Messiah]

Can we get a no conditions clause? Make a pick and stick with it.

Agreed. No "pick GB if Rodgers plays, the other team if he doesn't..." crap. It's one game, take the L, maybe you'll get a surprise W, no excuses.

for example, my GB pick still stands if Rodgers doesn't play. I think Kizer would be enough to beat MIN at Lambeau, tbh.

Arizona has....... who? Sam ****ing Bradford? :lmao


They just don't have a good roster. It's 4 stud players (2 on offense, 2 on defense; one of the 2 on offense is ancient) and the rest of the team are total scrubs. Also, their new HC is terrible. Arians was good for 3 additional wins in spite of a roster. Wilks is not.

my expectation was for Seattle to go 2-14 this year and I'm not changing that. their roster sucks

Jets/Browns is TNF, dude. Honestly, just skip TNF and give people the full week. One game ain't worth a half-the-time deadline.

Easy pick over Cowboys tbh. You’ve always been a massive homer

[Millennial_Messiah]

Easy pick over Cowboys tbh. You’ve always been a massive homer

I admit to the homer thing, but Seattle's offense has been consistently awful since about 2015. Especially the run blocking, and I don't think Wilson has had the read-option threat in a long time.

yeah but even against the best of defenses, wilson generally finds a way to sneak in points. seattle defense is still solid but not elite. cowboys offense is inept right now. seattle at home was a slam dunk

[Millennial_Messiah]

I think going forward, now that Carson looks legit and is the first guy since Lynch who can actually run without elite o-line blocking, they need to get back to the 2012-2014 era zone read option stuff because that good shit makes DLinemen tired and makes mediocre OLinemen look better than they actually are.

Also makes the team's own defense look better because of time of possession. Last year Seattle's defense looked worse than it is because Seattle always went 3 and out nearly every drive in the first 3 quarters of every game.

Good news for Seattle is no San Francisco this year because Garoppolo is done.

[spurraider21]

carson is clearly a better back than penny... but the seahawks felt inclined to keep penny involved after investing a first round pick in him.

they made a PR decision instead of a football decision. committing to carson was always the right move

[Millennial_Messiah]

whoops

[Millennial_Messiah]

Carson looked elite at the beginning of last year, but he broke his leg in like week 4 so we'll never know how far Seattle would have gone with him last year.

As for the Penny pick, WTF. I don't get why they didn't draft a corner or pass rusher there? I know they see Flowers as the next Sherman and all but I think he's more like Browner.

Brees has a chance to set two big milestones today

If he passes for 418 yards, he will become the NFL's all-time passing yardage leader.

If he throws 4 TDs, he will get his 500th career regular season TD pass.

It's at London, so probably more Seattle/Wilson fans than Brokeland. Not the Link but it's a neutral site at best for the Gruden Grindrs.


The Rams loss wasn't their SB, either, it's who they are... roughly 10-6 and a potential wild card. They have a really strong running game this year and Wilson can still throw a beautiful deep ball. Their defense is what it is, middling with the L.O.B. duo on IR never to return, their pass protection is still below average. They are what they are, a surefire 2nd fiddle in a division with the best team in football and two bottom feeders.

:lol i know need to stop picking the raiders every week at this point, they're killing me. but its bad juju to go against my team, so ima keep doing it

but 8-6 going into monday night

[spurraider21]

the redskins are such an interesting team... i think they're going to pull off a lot of sneaky wins against good teams

but they're going to struggle against any offense that can get on the board early (showed against indy and more notably, new orleans). the skins might be the worst team in the league playing from behind. alex smith has never been a good comeback QB and the skins lack anything resembling reliable weapons down the field. their only good receivers are reed/davis, crowder and chris thompson. all are short yardage, over the middle types.

but any time the game is close, tied, or the skins are leading, they can just feed adrian peterson who is actually having a pretty good year. the more they get him the ball, the better they'll be. and their D is not as bad as New Orleans made it look

9-3 heading into monday

[spurraider21]

the redskins are such an interesting team... i think they're going to pull off a lot of sneaky wins against good teams

but they're going to struggle against any offense that can get on the board early (showed against indy and more notably, new orleans). the skins might be the worst team in the league playing from behind. alex smith has never been a good comeback QB and the skins lack anything resembling reliable weapons down the field. their only good receivers are reed/davis, crowder and chris thompson. all are short yardage, over the middle types.

but any time the game is close, tied, or the skins are leading, they can just feed adrian peterson who is actually having a pretty good year. the more they get him the ball, the better they'll be. and their D is not as bad as New Orleans made it look
4-2... nobody thinks they're any good and yet they're 2 losses ahead of philly/dallas for the division lead

Dunno about that; but I took the GB +9 on a couple tickets.

Dunno about that; but I took the GB +9 on a couple tickets.

Aaron Donald is the best defensive player in football, and the best and by far the most paid player on the team.


Yet, he's not even the best Aaron on the field in this Sunday's game.


That's why the Rams lose.

Love Sherrels. Consistently gets 10 yards on PR's to lead the league without the big runbacks.

I believe the Patriots are the better team.

[Millennial_Messiah]

I believe the Patriots are the better team.

Patriots' defense is worse..... watching the Falcons-Redskins today I think trading HHCD was the right move, he's always late to the punch and sells out too hard to get acrobatic picks.

[TheCultOfPersonality]

Never thought the players the Packers traded away were needle movers anyway so they won't be missed.

We'll see about the Packers vs Patriots.


On a side note, not surpised about my picks of the Redskins, Jets, and Ravens lost.
