MNF comment

With the weather wreaking havoc before NE @BAL game, the casinos decided either to remove total of 48 (which dropped to 46) or only offer by itself (without parlay).

Since I tend to be a game day bettor, this was crummy but in retrospect turned out very good for me as I was unable to bet the dog/under combo (BAL +19/under 48) and thus only took the points. As it was BAL played far better than expected and the total ended up at 51 (27+24). The casinos in their defensive posture of not taking in parlays of side & total for MNF won less money than if they had just allowed parlays. Of course if you had the 6point tease parlay going you won w/BAL and/or under and/or over.

Turnovers killed BAL as the rest of the stats say they should have won. I'd bet on BAL and against NE in there respective upcoming games

not bad week, though work did have me limiting time to reviewing match-ups



notes: Only OAK QB Culpepper & BUF QB Edwards won as subs for starters - team depth is good, especially for BUF considering D started a lot of subs (compared to wk 1 starters)

NFL week 1

301 NO +5.5, over 53, I just expect NO to play keep away and run the ball more and IND to be efficient on offense, total maybe a bit high, but it's the opener and both QB's have been highly efficient in preseason.

406 HOU -3, under 38*** this may be a bit of a stretch, but w/KC having to rebuild their OL I just don't expect them to be as good and to continue their OL slide which began w/their OL retiring etc a couple of years ago

408 BUF +3.5, under 37 , hard to go against DEN, but it's the opener, the general consensus it BUF isn't good enough to beat DEN, but I'm taking a chance and I say BUF will win outright

409 PIT -4.5****, under 37, spread should be -14.5

411 TEN +6.5, under 37.5, JAC is at home, but they lost @TEN last year and I think TEN has "their number"

414 STL -1****, under 42 should be -10, CAR O is suspect and their D will wilt in the 4th qtr

416 GB +3, over 43.5**, this game I could be wrong w/the youth in GB failing to defend their home turf as PHI is among the top 3 teams in NFC

417 ATL +3, under 36*** I just don't expect MIN O to score and unless their D get's a pair of scores they won't win

420 WAS -3**, under 35 though D is good for MIA, just like the above team, I can't see their O scoring

422 NYJ +6.5, over 41 I expect a close game so taking the pts is the prudent thing

424 SEA -6***, under 41.5 the calls will begin for Gruden to lose his job w/this loss as SEA should demolish TB in their home opener

426 SD -6, over 42.5** I just don't trust CHI QB on the road

427 OAK -1.5, under 40*** , another one that's tuff to pick on a side

430 DAL -6, over 44*** tough to go against NYG since they are 2-0 (or 1-0-1)ATS last year vs DAL and w/CB Newman nursing a foot inj, I'd pick on that side, but I don't believe Strahan will play and 3-12 SU record w/Strahan really is hard to ignore

431 BAL +3****, under 40.5 CIN OL is the real question and I don't expect them to be able to stop the best D in the AFC (I call BAL D the best because they have the weakest O of all the teams w/a chance to make the playoffs)

433 ARI +3, under 45, should be interesting I could have gone the other way w/SF, I just think SF is farther away from making playoffs than ARI

Kirwan's Preseason Sacks

I just read this article "Now's the time to get handle on pass protection" and I wish I had read it earlier, I also would like to review this w/week 3 numbers added. It could use another column, interceptions, would be nice to see and perhaps completion rate as well.

time something I could use more of, but I have less and less of as time passes by ....

Using the numbers the article shows, you could expect better games (more wins?) from Houston, Oakland, Atlanta, Detroit this year and I guess I wouldn't get my hopes up for Buffalo, Carolina, Kansas City, Miami, Minnesota, NYG, Pittsburgh, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, & Washington.

you know I think I figured it out. Go to nfl.com/stats select By Player Category, choose Passing, then click on Team heading and voila, it's sorted by team w/sacks in the 2nd farthest from the right and Attempts just a couple of columns over from Team.

This makes it really interesting as STL QB Bulger has a rating of 51 and 2nd stringer STL QB Frerotte has a rating of 102.4

other hot backup QB's - BUF T Edwards, CLE B Quinn, GB A Rodgers, JAC D Garrad, MIA J Beck, NYJ K Clemens, SD B Volek, SF T Dilfer, TB B Gradkowski, and TEN K Collins

even worse is MIA T Green rated at 47.9

8/25 results - comments, 8/26 picks

winning plays: How I did:

IND & OVER 1-1, side:no, total:yes
TB & OVER 0-2, side:no, total:no
WAS & UNDER 2-0, side:yes, total:yes ***note*** game ended w/power outage
HOU & OVER 1-1, side:no, total:yes
NYJ & UNDER 1-1, side:yes, total:no
SF & OVER 0-2, side:no, total:no
SEA & OVER 1-1, side:yes, total:no
CLE & UNDER 1-1, side:yes, total:no
SD & OVER 2-0, side:yes, total:yes

***vegas I believed returned money on the BAL/WAS game due to the fact the game was not completed normally due to power outage ***

ATS 9-9 sigh 1/2 correct overall, I was a really mystified w/TB/MIA & SF/CHI game

I should've listened to Brent Crow radio Thursday archive @sportsmemo site, but I missed it and wasn't thinkin' of it.

DYK that the Station Casinos allows 6, 6.5, & 7 pt Teasers? Coast Casinos does as well and already has parlay cards out for Preseason action, which doesn't pay as well as off the board, but will have (depending on line/total movement) better numbers on game days.

HOU O appears to be much better, half of HOU D is good, other half well....,
I think Miami O&D will have problems,
I'm wondering about WAS is Gibbs playing possum or will they stink at the beginning just like last year?
ARI has definitely improved on O though run game could improve,
DAL D at times is too aggressive and can be fooled, O sometimes appears to be predictable or is it me?
DEN appears to have D issues and perhaps O as well, though this could be play calling
SD very good though I thought I noticed that when TE Gates appears to linger about 1/2 second in huddle longer than normal, then the play is going to him. I could be wrong there weren't many closeup to ID players, but @field level I wonder if LB's are paying attention and even if they knew could most LB's stop Gates? D is fine, though safety/CB mental lapses do occur. which accounts for ARI QB Leinart getting long pass play completions over the top.
CLE when will QB Brady start?

289 PHI 36
290 PIT -3
PIT*** and under

PHI 36 @ PIT -3

w/PHI U+6 2-0 O+6 2-0 fav 2-0 home 2-0
w/PIT O/U 0-3, U+6 3-0, opp+6 2-1

should be an under game PIT D allowed 7,13,10 pts, fav to win

*******************************************************

CIN -3.5 @ ATL 38

w/CIN opp+6 3-0 ATS, Over-6 2-0
w/ATL opp+6 1-0-1 ATS, O/U-/+6 1-1

should be an over game CIN D gives up 27pts x 2, ATL to prove something?

8/25 picks and comments for 8/24

due to other priorities I was unable to blog my picks for Friday's games. I did watch portions of STL @OAK and TEN @BUF. I believe OAK will be a much better team this year and you could bet on over the total number of wins for the season. STL needs RB S Jackson or they could have been playing much more conservatively, so I'm not sure w/them.
BUF w/o QB Losman or should I say WR L Evans will be in a world of hurt.
TEN is improving despite the loss of veteran players during the off season, though w/their schedule I doubt if they will improve upon their SU W/L record from last year.

8/19-20 results

1-3 ATS

should have known BAL D is so dominant just playing under total should win some $$$

so CHI motivation as loser of SB and using SB champion IND as measuring stick, really could have been CHI key point, despite QB Grossman experiment, QB Griese did play well

for the year 30-28 ATS

8/16 & 8/17 results

8/16 ATS 2-0 KC is in for a horrible year...

8/17 ATS 2-4 odd how I put an X next to TEN, but somehow I type NE ... sigh and I guess I should have picked PHI, but I ignored the 1st game back for McNabb factor.
MIN D looked great, though this is 2nd game in a row for NYJ that went over total. NYJ QB Pennington has never had the strongest of arms, but he tended to make smart decisions .... I wonder when we'll see Clemens start? midway thru season?
BUF vanilla O looks pathetic, ATL hmmm O looks like a few fixes and it could be ok.
OL's for both TEN & NE allowed too many QB pressures/sacks

I did notice... that every team (excluding Thursdays participant MIA 2-0 & KC 0-2 and NE 0-1-1) got rid of the goose egg for their ATS record they're all 1-1

as for Over/Under records, notables include CAR, NYJ 2-0, BUF, KC 0-2

for the year ATS 20-16

SD has depth at all positions thus earning my pick and I don't expect SEA QB Hasselbeck to play w/QB Wallace to start, but for how long?

SD QB Rivers will start but again for how long? same question w/QB Whitehurst and the others

officially, a no pick, but I'll take SD and the under

8/11 results

ATS 6-8

unexpected GB really did start fast, but PIT was uninterested?

TEN QB Young announced will not play one hour before game and WAS DOESN'T start fast

CHI doesn't appear to be deep

OAK OL plays well in 1st qtr (only game I watched - just 1st qtr and parts 3rd and 4th)

ATS 2-2

1st game CIN @DET, what I noticed is that QB D Johnson played much longer and was more productive than I thought he would be, thus my picks being totally off instead of Fav/under combo the winning combo was dog/over (CIN D did get a TD and DET D did fairly well)

2nd game IND @DAL, just as predicted, pretty much followed reports from blogs etc. thus 2-0 ATS in this game

blitzing D looks like a winner SU, covering -5? well I'd take the chance

historically Dungy's teams in preseason are decidedly uninterested in winning game and the under is even more prevalent
DAL new HC Philips leans slightly to winning ATS and even less toward the over
CIN HC Lewis is nearly the same as DAL coach
DET HC Marinelli was 1-3 SU (2-2)ATS last year and 1-3 O/U

HoF results

gee I thought it would rain at least once during the game, but somehow the rain stopped just for the game huh? Anyway my guess was on the $$ and I turned a nice little profit. We'll see if the rest of preseason has more "hidden" jewels.

I guess you can pretty much bet on PIT to cover as their intensity cannot be questioned w/their new coach. Meanwhile NO HC Payton is playing to the same tune as last year. You should be able to pick against them, but the total will be a bit harder unless you have a bead on their opposition, such as w/PIT .

I suspect in this Friday's game for NO that BUF should be favored and for PIT on Saturday they should be favored.

Friday, August 03, 2007

HoF game

261 NO 35.5 U**
262 PIT -2.5 X**

PIT HC is conducting tough 2-a-days, this should translate to a better chance to win this preseason game, covering the spread w/a D that wants the game. QB's look a bit better w/PIT and the drop off is noticeable w/NO.

note: NO in '06 preseason scored 19, 7, 14, 9 and allowed 16, 30, 27, 10 - an indicator that NO HC prefers to play possum in the preseason

This appears to be a 2-picker that will double your $$, of course PIT HC Tomlin could play possum as well, I lean toward the under...

Well I have found another impressive site to read for NO http://www.saintsreport.com/

The above link leads to "Sanders not ready to return" as in Bob Sanders IND safety. Even though its over a month old, reading the forum is informative and fun as you can read the opinions and highly insightful views of IND, NE, CHI and other tidbits, that reminds me that this is one of the best sites for NFL football

NFL interesting posts, writeups

Marquee matchup for 2007 - Covers.com
http://www.covers.com/articles/articles.aspx?theArt=138625&t=0

comment: SD has a decided edge w/Ron Rivera (former DC for CHI) when CHI visits SD in week 1. Current spread is SD -6, this could rise to -7.5+ my thinkin' is w/Rivera he'll know the weakness' of CHI O having watched/coached against them for several years as well as weakness' of the CHI D. If SD jumps to an early lead, CHI will most likely sputter.


Saint's sign CB, Colts have more holes
http://www.covers.com/articles/articles.aspx?theArt=137370&t=0

in their week 1 matchup getting 6pts may just be enough to get the cover, though NO does still have a secondary that could be upgraded. IND are the champs and the bulls eye is squarely on their backs. I expect IND to win but not cover...


ATL latest starter sidelined
http://www.covers.com/articles/articles.aspx?theArt=137708&t=0

ATL w/D in trouble even before training camp starts and new O and D schemes to implement will likely have trouble @ MIN

oops SB XLI

I liked the colt's and the over for the past two weeks, but I forgot to blog the thought. Funny how the rain, timeouts and Coach Dungy killed the total over 48. Props were really interesting, though I must admit I only thought of picking Hester to score the 1st TD ( I picked on TE Dallas Clark ).
The Bear's still have a good team, though they may need to change QB as their nucleus is very good and they are now in year 3 of their 4 year window (some will say year 2). I just thought that they've had a great D that will be just good next year, unless they find a substitute for S Mike Brown.

NO, PHI, and even WAS should be watched next season. I'd have put ARI in the mix, but they changed the coaching staff. I believe DAL and SEA will have down years next season.

My colleague Jimmy had only one loss in the post season (pick'n sides) very very good vs spread.

The AFC is still the best conference and with IND, NE, JAC and CIN should be watched. SD is still another year away. DEN is kinda in between. TEN should get a tougher schedule and may not do as well. NYJ maybe another team to watch, the draft and FA's will tell the tale.

whaddayaknow? Jimmy's correct and liked the over as well, though he says the NO@CHI game was much higher than expected

AFC/NFC championships

303 NO 43.5 X
304 CHI -2.5 O

305 NE 48 X
306 IND -3 U


Though I've made my best bet the under for NE@IND I'm not convinced. My colleague Jimmy says to take CHI and IND which is opposite of mine, but he's been right sometimes this year except w/WAS

Away dog combo won all games

Dogs won outright in AFC, Favorites won, but did not cover in NFC
a money line on my picks would've paid nicely

I picked the AFC perfectly going 2-0 in both games, the NFC had an over when expecting under and as the fav's couldn't cover

Wildcard results

ATS post-season

overall 5-3
favored side/total 3-1
best bets 0-1


I had tried a parlay card @Cannery and I lost on KC/IND game under 2 ints. I thought maybe KC QB Green might give up 1 int, but IND QB Manning being picked 3x was totally unforseen by me. Sacks were at 5 so that was another loss, but both DAL/SEA & NYJ/NE were under 5 sacks.

Tuesday, January 02, 2007

Wildcard playoffs

477 KC 51 U
478 IND -7 X
It may be better to take KC ATS, I just expect IND to win SU and cover

479 DAL 47 X
480 SEA -3 U
* hardest game to pick a side as both teams are 1-3 SU in Dec * (perhaps I should pick the under as my favored side/total) But I did notice that SEA has inj's - their nickel back/punt returner is out, CB Trufant is out as well. You might surmize that over the total is a better play. I just think the DAL D will hold down SEA O giving DAL the outright win

483 NYJ 38 X
484 NE -9 O
*** I expect NE to win SU. NYJ has only one loss vs division foes greater than 7 pts ***

485 NYG 46.5 O
486 PHI -6.5 X

end of regular season 2006
