IMO if Trent Richardson plays the Browns will cover- although they'll still probably find a way to lose. This Eagles defense can be run on.

[DPG21920]

Richardson? The rookie RB who's been injured an unable to really get any action in will do well in his first NFL game? Don't see it, but maybe he is that talented.

Their Run D should be much-improved with the addition of DeMeco Ryans at LB and Fletcher Cox and others on the DL. Add to the fact that Philly will probably roll with 8 in the box anyway since Weeden hasn't proved himself capable yet, and Richardson should be a non-factor.

Saints -7
Dolphins +12.5
Falcons -3
Packers -5
Cardinals +3

Cowboys +3.5

[DPG21920]

i am shocked at how many people think the cowboys keep it close. maybe I am just way off on this one.

[DeadlyDynasty]

That game is a dog with fleas...want no part of it in the betting scheme.

[Blake]

No doubt wouldn't touch it with real money.

I just want to throw something out for tonights game.

[Blake]

It should be duly noted that unless avante shows up soon, that he has thrown all his chips on Detroit -7.

Iirc, per another thread

[DPG21920]

I would bet real money IMO. I know that might go against popular opinion, but when there is that big of a gap in o-line v d-line, I bet regardless.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Avante's glaring absence from this thread shows he is a true nutless wonder, afraid to put his rep on the line.


For shame.

[DPG21920]

In fact - tonight's game is DPG's crazy risky lock of the week

[DeadlyDynasty]

I would bet real money IMO. I know that might go against popular opinion, but when there is that big of a gap in o-line v d-line, I bet regardless.

I bet my 6 ($50 each) every week...but I can't touch the Dallas game b/c this is just the type of game the Cowboys would show up for (but still lose). I hear ya though...with the discrepancy in the trenches this could end up 45-17. Still, my gut's telling me to lay off.

[DPG21920]

You going to shadow me again? Let's see if I can sustain the ridic level from last year.

For shame.

What day is it? You never ever make picks this early in the week.

Rookies

I'll be here before the games with 4 winners, yep 4-2 very realistic. Obviously the Giant/Dallas game was not a play.

My Ram/Lion play is sooooo strong it doesn't matter.

Right now we only have history to go with which is ok but it does get easier as the season progresses. I usually only play the strongest play this early, and will only play Lions laying the number as far as real $$$$$$$ goes. Once we get a real read on 2012 then I start rolling.

pffft.....rookie..

[Avante]

pffft.....rookie..

So much to teach so little time.

There is no team in the NFL more lame in week one than the Rams. Especially on the road. As we will see.

[DPG21920]

Can't win em all coach, just gotta be more right than wrong to make a dolla I saidddddddddd

[Flintstones32]

Where do you guys actually place these bets at? There a legit place that you don't have to worry about pay outs?

[DPG21920]

I don't place any real bets unless I go to Vegas.

[Blake]

No doubt a fat ol like you doesn't have much time left

[Dex]

Already made my money off the game last night. The only thing better than winning a bet...is winning a bad bet.

LMAO Giants

[Blake]

Saints -7
Dolphins +12.5
Falcons -3
Packers -5
Cardinals +3

Cowboys +3.5

I'm taking my Falcons pick off the board.

Eagles at -8.5 instead.
