I placed a 1000$ bet on the Buffalo Bills earlier today.

Yes, thousand.

Here in Vegas a great deal of people are on Buffalo.

I spoke to a guy yesterday and I told him I expecT the Buffalo line to come down. It's down to 8.5 now.

Houston has to be the biggest sucker bet of the week.

People do realize Buffalo has beaten KC--which seriously might not win a game--and barely beat the Raiders on a 1PM EST start, where Oakland has lost 25 of their last 28? My money would be on New England and the over. Not saying BUF isn't a good team but this is a HUGE leap in degree of difficulty.

NE is just going to shred the Bills secondary. I'd never feel comfortable betting a team when it feels like the opponent is going over 35 for sure

If I had money on the game it would be on NE. I'll probably tease it down maybe with a 10 point teaser. I also like the over.

I saw some lines down to 8.5. The +/- has moved from 52 to 53.5 already too. I still like the over. I picked 39-30 in my forthcoming picks column.

Survivor fantasy pick o' the week is Carolina over JAX.

Patriots do not have Aaron Hernandez for the near future, and Ocho Cinco is still learning, so I expect the numbers on offense to diminish a little.

As long as they have Branch and Welker, Brady will still throw for 350+ yards.

This, uh, does not come as a surprise for either guy. The Bengals are seriously taking this whole Jailblazers thing a little too far. All they need is Isiah Rider showing up at practice stoned out of his mind and brandishing loaded semi-automatic handguns, then claiming "they still hang black people around here, you know"...

Very interested to see if Newton can put up 400 yards against the Jaguars defense. Jags have a very good run defense, but no so strong pass defense. He will have a shot at making it 3 games in a row. Think I heard somewhere it has never been accomplished before.

The NE line Is down to 8 points at the Hilton in Vegas.

Tampa is now favored to beat Atlanta by 2 points. Atlanta must win this game!

Cam Newton may show up but will the rest of the Panthers?

RIPskaterdude · Post #16 » by **RIPskaterdude** » Fri Sep 23, 2011 4:58 am

With Gabbert starting for the Jags and all the injures on D for the Panthers, I figure that Jones-Drew is going to get the ball 25-30 times for 100+ yards.

I swear when I heard that Bills over the Patriots, I knew it was a trap.
