I don't get why people are high on the Raiders, they don't have a QB and Herbert is back. They have a disgruntled WR and a bad defense.

I'm not high on the Raiders, just think the Chargers are gonna be ass this season too and it's effectively a home game for the Raiders.

2-4

It's crazy almost everyone picked the Browns to win but underestimated how good the regular season cowboys are.

[Millennial_Messiah]

12-4 week 1, pretty damn good!

BUF @ MIA - Bills win by a score similar to last year's outcome, Miami looked terrible against Jacksonville at home


Sunday, 09/15/2024

SEA @ NE - Patriots have a razor thin pathway to victory in any game, and they Belichick'd the sluggish Bengals in Belichick's first game out of the league, but they won't get far
LV @ BAL - I expect this to be a blowout in favor of Baltimore, one of those early season Ravens 45-10 type games, this one simply isn't fair
SD @ CAR - Herbert is still a premium quarterback and Bryce Young is one of the worst if not the worst fulltime starter. Harbaugh goes to 2-0
CLE @ JAX - I don't like Jacksonville's O-line nor do I really trust their defense anymore. Bounce back game for the Browns imo.
NYJ @ TEN - Typical Aaron Rodgers 'r-e-l-a-x' bounce back game against inferior opponent, though he's never been the greatest road warrior
NYG @ WAS - Don't really like either team to compete in 2024, but Danny Depression is really on a whole different level of derpage right now
TB @ DET - Mayfield and the Bucs showed off against a bad WFT at home, but in Detroit they shouldn't have any such luck.
IND @ GB - I have the Packers winning narrowly and ugly with the bad backup QB, but this could prove to be a bad pick. The Colts are scrappy against good teams but under Steichen lose the games they should win.
SF @ MIN - Vikings won this upset at home last year, but c'mon man, it's the Niners. Could be close. They're relatively healthy this year, so I'm taking the Niners.
NO @ DAL - Saints beat arguably the worst team in football and in sports by a lot, but Dallas hasn't lost a regular season home game since Dak Prescott broke his finger against Tampa in Week 1, 2022, over 2 full years ago. Great regular season home team under McCarthy. Dallas wins by two scores.

CIN @ KC - Something's a bit amiss with Burrow one way or the other; he'll get it right sooner than later, but don't see them walking into Arrowhead and winning this time of year. Chiefs by two scores.
PIT @ DEN - Clearly the Steelers have an elite defense and Denver doesn't have an offense. Tomlin is one of the best at "not fucking up" these type of situations.
LAR @ AZ - Rams were good enough to win the Detroit game but again unlucky on the coin toss. They should manhandle the hapless Cardinals.

CHI @ HOU - Don't see the Bears winning on the road against this loaded offense with 96 yards of total offense. CJ Stroud isn't Will Levis. Texans reasonably comfortably, they just need to be disciplined on special teams and not make dumb mistakes; that's the only way the Bears can win football games right now.

Monday, 09/16/2024

ATL @ PHI - Should be a relative rout for the Eagles, who own both Cousins and the Falcons in recent history. Eagles by two to three scores.

4-1-1, 6-5-1 on the season.

4-1-1, 6-5-1 on the season.

Bizarre that you can have a tie in a spread pickem but not a tie in an actual game. I've always said the spreads should never be whole numbers. Nobody likes chopped pots in betting any more than football teams like ties in overtime games.

I went 32-0 last 2 weeks.
