Week 8: Pick the line 

Post#1 » by HMFFL » Wed Oct 22, 2008 2:47 pm

So, do you think your good at picking the games straight up? Trying pick the line and really see how good you are! Just like the pick'em bold your choice and as you can see I have the line. Unlike the pick'em we won't keep points for this but maybe we can start it next season along with the straight up pick'em game.

imo, it would be best to open this up after thursday since lines move quite bit during the week.

New York Jets (-13)
Oakland (+7)
Atlanta (+9)
Carolina (-4.5)
Dallas
Washington (-7.5)
Buffalo (-1.5)
New England (-7)
San Diego (-3)
Houston (-9.5)
Cleveland (+7)
Pittsburgh (-2.5)
San Francisco (-5)
MONDAY NIGHT:
Tennessee (-4)

My actual ticket for tomorrow, 9-5 so far in the season;

Carolina -4
Buffalo -1
New England -7.5
Oakland +7.5
Frisco -5.5

if i can go 4-1 it will be great first half of the season. bit concerned though, very rarely i bet on more than 4 games a week.

i find the games i wanna bet on by analyzing trends, home&road performance, dvoa, run&pass defense. then go ahead and make the final decision according to my gut. my gut isnt feeling too good this week but we shall see.
