Comments:
Writer | Comment |
---|---|
Erickson | What has happened recently to make GB anything less than a five-point dog? The Redskins are better than the Packers, and the line isn't treating them as such... I also really like the Cowboys this week, and dare I say it, the Browns, even though I'm sick of taking the Browns. |
Pianowski | Brief comment hiatus until I win a few games. |
Liss | For once, I really liked this slate especially the Seahawks at home against rookie Carson Wentz and the Vikings as a pick 'em at home against the underachieving Cardinals. Other teams I like: the Cowboys as only seven-point home favorites against a league-average Ravens team and the Browns getting so many points against a Steelers team that struggles on the road. I hate my Texans pick, but the line seemed generous on a neutral site. |
Stopa | I lost a lot siding with Washington at home over the Packers in last year's playoffs. Seems like a similar situation now, so I won't make the same mistake... Dallas is so public right now, the smart money has to be on Baltimore... I look for the Pats and Steelers to name the score in bounce-back spots against the league's true dregs. |
Del Don | The Dolphins are playing really well, and the Rams are turning to a QB who's by all accounts not even close to being ready. I actually feel confident in this best bet, for once. |
