Lock of the year

[Jimcs50]

Bet the farm, the house, the kids, the dog, the wife, the paycheck on my Redskins this week against New England.

Washington is getting 17 pts at NE.


I know nobody has been closer than 17 against NE(Dallas), but there are two reasons that lead me to believe that Washington will give Tom Brady all he can handle this week and therefore cover the spread.

1. Washington has the best secondary in the NFL

2. NE will invariably look past Washington to next week's showdown with hated rival Indy.


I am betting heavily on my Skins, so should you.

:smokin

[JMarkJohns]

I think it will be the Patriots toughest game yet, but I don't expect them to look past Washington. The 'skins are a very good team and I don't think their coaching staff allows the players to focus beyond the coming week.

I don't bet, so I have a question. If Washington loses, but loses by fewer than the 17 points, you win, right?

[Thunder Dan]

So far the Browns have come the closest to making it a game vs. the Pats, they lost by 17, but the Pats scored a TD with under 2 min on a fumble return...

However, I did read a handicappers blog and he said this "Don't bet against the Patriots. I don't care what you do but NEVER bet against them this year. I don't care if the line is -34.5, don't bet against them. If you think a line looks integuing you're better off just not betting on it because I told you DON'T BET AGAINT THE PATRIOTS"

[K-State Spur]

The Skins are too beat up to consider anything a lock. I actually like their chances this week. But if Rabach isn't back on Sunday, and Kendall, Smoot, and/or Moss tweak their injuries, WAS will have a hell of time just fielding a team, much less competing with the Pats.

If healthy, WAS is one of the few teams in the league that match up well with NE (relatively speaking of course). They've got enough secondary depth to match-up with all the NE wideouts. Their DL - while not great pass rushers - can control the running game without needing to bring up the safeties. They've got a running game that can pound the ball and control the clock. And they've got a big armed QB with fast WRs who can attack the Pats vertically.

However, Washington is far from healthy.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

For you newer posters, whenever Jim makes a thread like this, it's very safe to go the opposite.

Patriots 31
Redskins 10



Jim loses.

[Light Grenades]

It'll be closer than what most people think, but no way do I go against the Pats before Indy....

[OldDirtMcGirt]

Dropping some cheddar on Indy and Green Bay are way better bets.

[Brutalis]

NE will win, and lose to INDY. All the shit about them being better than the defending champs is squash!

[misterx91578]

i wouldn't say bet the farm

[J.T.]

I've been saying all week that Washington will come the closest to anyone thus far of beating NE, but they will still lose.

[Erect as a Bull]

Yea I agree that the Redskins are good and physical just like a lot of NFC east teams. The Skins and the Giants are 2 tough teams and its funny how the Pats are favored by 16.5 to the Skins and were favored by 16.5 to the Fins. Probably because they were on the road vs the Fins. I cant wait til they play at home vs the Fins. What do you think the spread will be in the game? And I wonder how much they will be favored over the Colts? If they are favored by more then 4 vs the Colts I would be shocked even though I think they will beat the Colts by at least 10. if both of them are undefeated and the Colts are the defending superbowl champs the Colts being underdogs at home is pretty crazy.

I think the Pats will win 38-13 though. Brady will throw 4 more Tds. :elefant:

[BeerIsGood!]

The Redskins will get lit up for 35+, and Campbell and that offense may be the only team that can't put up points on NE's pretty average and slightly shitty D. Dallas put up 27 even with their offense killing drive after drive with penalty after penalty. NE wins by 30.

[Jimcs50]

NE wins by 30.

:rolleyes


Put your money where your mouth is.

I will bet you any amount you want that NE does not win by 30.

It is easy to say shit, when you will not back it up with your wallet.

Name the bet, from $10 to $10,000

JIM: THE DAY AFTER THE GAME :spin

[K-State Spur]

Campbell and that offense may be the only team that can't put up points on NE's pretty average and slightly shitty D.

Campbell's been very good this year. But I challenge any offense to keep clicking losing 4 out of 5 starters on the line.

[Bigzax]

we make no excuses! buges will have them ready!!!

[K-State Spur]

buges is great, but we need rabach and kendall to get healthy. if randy thomas can be back by the beginning of December - that would HUGE.

[Bigzax]

they are starting fabini at rt instead of wade. good but not great news. is heyer still injured? that rookie can play!


i read rabach was a maybe...and i didn't know kendell went down!



i'm more worried about the health of our cb's!

smoot and rogers are gimpy...




who's gonna be on that welker guy...and IF the pats start tearing up our D, williams better start bringing the heat. none of this prevent bs if it ain't preventing shit anyway....

I don't need to make bets with dentists over the internet over something as trivial as sports to hide my insecurites. Maybe you should see someone about your mental issues, you've thrown your "million dollar" practice and money talk around more than once.

Kendall went down in the second half of the Green Bay game. He played against the Cards, but was in and out - and ineffective.

Rabach is listed as 'questionable.'

Heyer is still hurt. Jansen and Thomas are out for the foreseeable future of course.

Are you sure that you didn't mean RG for Fabini? That's where he has been playing. Wade is at right tackle (and nowhere near 100% himself). I haven't heard that they were going to move Fabini outside.

Overall, the patchwork line has done a pretty good job of protecting Cambell (except for when Pucillo came in for Rabach, teams have been getting a push up the middle all of a sudden). However, they haven't opened many holes for Portis or Betts. Defenses are overloading the left side so that the Skins can't run behind Samuels/Kendall.

[Erect as a Bull]

The only reason I really like the Skins is because of Portis :lol
I'm not going to say the Pats will beat them by 30.
But I think they will cover the spread.

There's no way the Skins lose by less than 17. And, there's no way that they're (Pats) looking past the Skins.

I said that Once and only once, but obviously it made an impression on you. The only reason I mentioned that was that you called me a loser. Losers do not have multimillion dollar businesses that they started up from scratch, that was my point, dickhead.

who is this guy and why does he have 2 of my favorite bands in his sig/avatar?

[jackseven]

Hardly a lock. While Redskins secondary is by far the best the Pats have seen, Washington's offense won't put up the points necessary. Keep in mind, the Pats have been slowing down in the second half against most teams. Last week they could have scored 70 if they wanted to.

The more I think about it, the more I see a somewhat close game in the beginning and then the Pats busting the game loose after they start wearing down the Redskins D. They'll have to try more, but in the end I see 41-17 Pats.

Redskins will try to slow the game down and control the clock, but the Pats will get up and force them to abandon relying mostly on the running game.

Once the Pats are up 14-0, Gibbs will start feeling the pressure to throw the ball and that will open the game up.

No such thing as a lock when going against the 2007 Patriots.

NE is that good (and the Redskins are playing very poorly to boot). The Skins secondary is the one place they matchup with the Pats, but with Smoot and Rogers out, they simply don't have the bodies to cover all these WRs.

Add in Campbell playing his worst game of the season, Brady being near flawless, and you have a blowout.

Good thing my jinxing only works in football and basketball.

I will win $1200 on the Boston Red Sox winning the WS....that makes up for the hit I took in this game.

3 starting offensive lineman out, over half of our D backs are out, receivers that are banged up, I guess it was asking too much for the Skins to give NE a game afterall.

Oh well, I have the World Series to celebrate and the Spurs to watch, not to menetion Aggie Basketball.....all is not lost.

:)

[ShoogarBear]

Jim, please don't make any bets or predictions for the Cowboy game.

[J.T.]

:lol @ the Pats for playing starters in the 4th quarter with a six score lead. I can see the postgame conference now from Belichick "Washington is a good football team. They definitely have the talent to come back and score and we felt that six scores in the 4th quarter was very possible for them"

The football gods will eventually punish them for running up the score. Probably next week, and then again in the playoffs. Both times by Indy.

[slayermin]

I just want someone to lay some wood on Brady.

[J.T.]

I find it incredibly hard to believe that the Pats don't think Matt Cassel could thrown goal line completions or run the ball in. Especially with a six score lead. They are now blatantly trying to outscore teams as badly as they can. Karma's going to be a bitch.

[Thunder Dan]

I wish they would take this garbage off my tv

[J.T.]

I hope the Colts get a lead this big next week so our #12 can go up against the Pats #12 in the fourth quarter and upstage him.

In Madden, 38-0 is often the score at the end of the first quarter if your opponent is a n00b and you know all of the glitches or guaranteed touchdown plays.

You could see they wanted Brady to get that third passing TD so bad.

[Thunder Dan]

[K-State Spur]

Your up 38-0 in the 4th Quarter and you go for it on 4th down? Kick the fucking field goal, play some prevent defense and get out of the game without any injuries.

If the Pats do this all season, I guarantee kharma is going to bite them in the ass or an ACL.

[J.T.]

im not doubting them, I'm just saying I've seen them both play 3 times this year and the Pats are at a different level. Nobody has come close to them.

My buddy that turned me on to Madden used to run the score on me all the time, then one summer I just played Madden every day and when he came back from summer break I would throw TDs on first down, recover onside kicks, rinse, dry, repeat all game. Finally I decided to kickoff after a TD and I hit sticked his kick returner, forced the fumble and took it to the house. He threw down the sticks and quit the game, I was winning like 60something-0 at that point and it was the 3rd quarter. Football karma is going to get the Pats back bad.

[JamStone]

funny thread

[J.T.]

And now we see Matt Cassel come into the game about four possessions after he should've. Belichick is a dirty, smelly cunt of a coach.

And I also like the continuing shots of Brady on the sideline with his arms crossed and that "Man I wish I was still out there padding my stats and running up the score" look on his face.

Ohh and Robert Kraft getting a handjob in the owner's box from some unknown male associate. I knew it.

[dirk4mvp]

wow

[J.T.]

Belichick would've tried to score 100 points in this game if he knew the Skins D would suddenly suck copious amounts of money cock.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

At this point, this is just kinda funny.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

GODDAMN YOU, Chris Cooley!

[Tippecanoe]

moral victory!!!!!!

[dirk4mvp]

oh noes, time to put Brady back in! The lead is in jeapordy!

[J.T.]

The FOX announcers are playing along with this thread almost perfectly.

[J.T.]

Onside kicking there was fucking retarded because all Joe Gibbs did was allow Belichick excellent field position to run up the score some more.

[J.T.]

I like how the lead is now too big for even the likes of Matt Cassel, but 24-0 still required Brady's services.

[ShoogarBear]

Well, it will be interesting to see how the Skins respond to this. They're not really this bad, but have been overrated by the locals all year. Either they will realize they're going to have to bust ass all year just to make the playoffs and come back next week with the nose to the grindstone, or they hand their heads and pack it in.

I played in leagues from 1998 to 2004, face to face and online. In one league I played in, you could keep your team if you return the next year.

The player that owned the Pats played a very similar style as the 2007 Pats. He would spread you out and pick you apart with quick passing plays. The past Maddens were horrible defending pick passing plays and "A" gap blitzes.

Anyway, the Pats owner was very good and he would blow you out if you didn't have a good day. Usually, he would win by 40 or more points and some felt in our league, running it up when he had the game in hand. I always felt this was unrealistic because what coach would risk injury if you were up four touchdowns in the 4th Qtr? But since injuries didn't count in our league from one game to the next, running up the score wasn't really frowned upon. Though it did get heated sometimes.

In the real NFL, everytime you keep your best players out on the field, their risk of injury goes up. That is the ultimate price for running it up.

No, you just don't know football. You made a horrible pick. The Pats look like the best team in NFL history and you bet against them with 17 points and the Washington Redskins who have a tough time scoring against average Ds.

[jackseven]

Hey Colts fan, it's going to get ugly this coming Sunday. Real ugly. So ugly, you'll be making excuses too. The Pats will run up the score against Colts too.

If teams have a problem with running up the score - stop'em. If you can't shut up. This is pro ball.

[Spurs rock]

I think it will be the Patriots toughest game yet, but I don't expect them to look past Washington. The 'skins are a very good team and I don't think their coaching staff allows the players to focus beyond the coming week.

I don't bet, so I have a question. If Washington loses, but loses by fewer than the 17 points, you win, right?

Yup, it sure was their toughest game. :rolleyes

[monosylab1k]

He should have kicked him in the balls.
or he could have coached his team to play a little smarter and with more heart and self-respect than to allow that ass-raping to happen.

[monosylab1k]

here's a post from a Patriots message board that sums up the whole "running it up" crap that people bitch about.


Expecting an opponent to "take it easy" on you is weak and classless.

Seriously. How pathetic.

You're SO BAD that you EXPECT the opposing offense to "take it easy" on you???

Your ego is SO FRAGILE that you require your opponent to STOP TRYING?

You are so unable to handle a large loss that you have to turn the blame away from your own incompetence?? How anti-American. How piss weak. Be men.

Giving up in such a manner is the epitome of lacking self-respect and class.

It is FAR MORE CLASSLESS to complain about an opponent running up the score than it is to play the game how it is supposed to be played as an offense or defense.

These people crying about us scoring points are beyond pathetic. They are completely classless. That goes for the accusing opponents and media members alike.

Jealousy is an ugly emotion.

He should have kicked him in the balls.

I want Brady to blow out a knee in one of these games where he is still playing with a 30 pt lead.....Karma is going to get you.

I'd say wishing serious injury to another player because they decimated your spread and lock of the week is pretty low.

[monosylab1k]

I dunno how many times I've heard this phrase today -

"The Patriots are so fucking classless! I hope somebody hits Brady and breaks his fucking arm!"

:lmao

[JMarkJohns]

Yup, it sure was their toughest game. :rolleyes

Yeah...

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

This isn't like college going for power rankings. This is the pros you show some respect, show some class.

[K-State Spur]

i'm as diehard a redskin fan as there is and i have no problem with the pats' scoring.

it was the redskin defense's job to stop them from scoring, not theirs.

what a pathetic performance by the D. yes, with springs as the only healthy regular corner, that makes the Pats a near impossible match-up, but 52 points? c'mon...

The problem with pissing off defenses is that someone is going to take a run at Brady eventually. An extra step or two before the hit, helmet to helmet, going low, etc. Someone will think the ensuing fine will be money well spent.

I have no problem with the scoring, just let Cassell run the offense in doing so.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

I'd expect a Lion fan to post this. It's been years that they've been praying for anybody out there to give them a morsel of respect.


Post what? An actual player's response?

[monosylab1k]

The respect for the game is shown by giving enough of a shit out ther to not allow your team to get their brains beaten in like that.

Tell that to Randall Godfrey.

for the record, in the event that one day pigs fly in hell while the Devil is ice skating hand-in-hand with the Pope and Hitler bakes a cherry pie for a Jew and apologizes for all that "genocide stuff" and the Jew accepts his apology and Old Faithful stops spouting and Ann Coulter appears on CNN saying "well maybe I don't look at everything completely rational" and Michael Bay makes a movie with a shred of artistic merit and the Patriots get beat 52-7, I won't bitch about anybody "running up the score" because if your NFL team has enough self-respect, they won't get beat 52-7.

[Chris Childs]

When I watched that game, it seemed like the Patriots knew everything the Redskins were going to do or throw at them.

I find that very suspicious.

No wonder everybody hates the Pats. Because they're always winning BIG.....EVERYFUCKINGGAME when they don't suppose to be.

Yep... those hating are doing such on the wrong team. It was the 'skins who failed to give a damn much after the second quarter. If they don't care, why the hell do you folks so much?

Blaming a team for attempting to become the greatest offensive team to ever play? That's bullshit! These are professional ballplayers getting paid millions of dollars to care enough to put forth a winning effort. These aren't college kids or younger who need a bit of real world shelter for fear of a fragile psyche. Every team in the NFL has the talent to compete any given week. Every team certainly should have enough heart to not want to get their brains bashed in. Especially after all the "they aren't much more talented/taht much better" talk they ran all week.

'skins got skunked, but what stinks most is everyone dumping on a team for playing up to its own abilities and demanded perfection.

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

How about if the Redskins are so offended... someone should've manned up and put a late hit on Brady.

You call that manning up? That's chicken-shit tactics. Take you whoopin' like a man, or MAN UP and stop them from whoopin' ya.

And it was interesting that Al Saunders lost communication with the sideline for a few minutes during the game. As if the Pats needed anymore of an advantage. It was probably a coincidence but who really knows.

As far as the running up the score thing, I didn't appreciate Belicheck going for it on 4th and 1, sneaking Brady, up 38-0 in the 4th. It didn't seem like they were running down the clock to win the game. They seemed like they were trying to pad their stats against a defeated, injured team. With Rogers getting hurt, and Smoot out, of course it was easy pickings. Joe Gibbs had some explosive offensive teams in the past but I do not ever recall him throwing on teams, up big in the 4th. He would smash your brains in and run the ball, run the clock.

To beat the Pats, you have to have all hands on deck. You have to think outside the box. Try to convert a receiver as an extra defensive back like the Pats did with Troy Brown. You will have to risk some one on one coverage with Moss to at least attempt to pressure Brady. And get some hits on that Wes Welker. I don't condone injuring anyone but you have to make him pay for catching all those passes in the slot.

[Erect as a Bull]

:lol Jimc and you called me a stupid Fucker?? :lol
But Congrats on Boston at least :(

and :lol @ JT saying this will be thier lowest scoring outing of the season.
You forgot that the Pats like to run shit up.

But IMO there is no such thing as running the score up in the NFL.
You are all professionals.
If you dont like it then stop it.

I actually like watching them run the score up.
I think its funny shit.

So JT what is your prediction for the Colts/Pats game next week?

I cant wait for that game. :elephant

[slayermin]

Gibbs did shake Belicheck's hand. They showed a picture on NFL Gameday.
