    Kissed my sister today but I got a sneaky hunch.
    Jets defensive touchdown anytime +700 for 50

    I was right that the only TD the Jets would score would be on defense but it didn’t happen.
    Team only meeting earlier in the week in the Bills locker room. They know this is a must win tonight. I’m not discounting that the Bills are at home, fired up and have 3 winnable games ahead. I’m all in tonight at -7.

    Bills -7 for 100

    I can't see the Bills losing but Monday nights matchup might be a made for TV special 27 21 Bills W

    All that talent gone to waste. I’m just disgusted and disappointed. Oh well, still gotta get up and work so back to work. I’m off tomorrow so I’m watching the whole game tonight, (if it stays competitive)
    After the Bengals showing last week how could I possibly think they’d March into Baltimore and come out with a win? Like the Bills they look off and the defense is not very good.

    The fishiest line today is the Rams favored over Seattle?? They’re just begging you to take the Seahawks so
    Rams -2 for 100

    Houston-4.5 for 25

    Mystery to me why Cleveland is favored despite being at home. Their QB is out. And Pittsburg plays good defense.

    It didn't help.that the Rams didn't really decide to play until the 2nd half, Cupp dropping that TD on the free play was not helpful either

    Pittsburgh Offense is pathetic, the only reason they have a wining record is their Defense, we all knew that Cleveland game was going to be a low scoring slugfest, Cleveland has the better D and did just enough to win on Offense.

    I think that spread was correct and if it was in Pittsburgh I'd say it would have been a pick em

    And as of Thursday I don’t see anything that pops out. I’m so tempted to take Buffalo and the points as I feel every game for them is a playoff game now. If they have really got their sh$t together they can beat anyone

    Geno Smith is active but Walker is not for the Seahawks. Geno nursing a sore elbow against the 49ers without Walker is a bad omen.

    Jets +9.5 for 25.
    I just want to root for the Jets and make it interesting for at least the first quarter. Lol

    Since I have some money on Jacksonville winning the division. (How about those Texan!! Definitely the surprise of 2023.)
    I’m laying a few dollars on the Jags this morning.
    Jacksonville ( I got them as a pickem) for 50

    Ok so I admit I’m a homer and blindly optimistic. Every game for Buffalo from here on out is a playoff game.

    Buffalo + 3.5 for 50

    Something fishy about this line.
    Baltimore favored by 3? Shouldn’t it be 5 or 6?
    Baltimore-3 for 50

    Cowboys averaging 35 points at home this season and are on a 13 game home win streak. They’ve won each game by 20+ points. Catch us every game is against teams with losing records. Playing a second place schedule has its perks and disadvantages. Weak competition doesn’t prepare you for the playoffs where every week is against a winning record.
    They might win, they might cover but I’m going against the odds and taking the under.
    Under 47.5 for 25

    I’m taking a huge gamble thinking the Rams will keep this game close. I think they can score.
    Buffalo has beaten KC at KC the last two years in the regular season. This is the 5th game in a row, 3rd season in a row in KC. How’s that happen?
    Hate the Cowboys, never bet them but I think Philly is vulnerable. Don’t ask why.
    I really like Cincinnati and Houston but refuse to root for them. But I need the Colts to lose so Jacksonville wins the division for my futures. Oh the torture
    Rams +7 for 25
    Bills +1 for 25
    Cowboys -3 for 25

    Minnesota has been under 10 of their 13 games this season and starting their 3rd string QB against the Bengals 2nd string QB. I mean, what could go wrong?? Lmao

    I’m not mad about losing the under, or even the Broncos. I’m more pissed pushing the Cincinnati game where the Vikings snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. A 7-7 Bengals team would have been beneficial to the Bills.

    Dolphins-Bills AFC east title, #2 seed.
    Huge viewing audience, Huge TV rating. Huge commercial money. Mega gambling money. Talking heads all week long previewing this game with NFL fans tuning in. NFL in 7th heaven.
    There is no way this plays out any differently.

    Just curious why you didn't tie the Buffalo moneyline in with the Baltimore moneyline on a 2 leg parlay? Your odds would have been approximately -135 or -130 for your scenario playing out.

    Good thoughts. I’ve never played a money line before so I really don’t know the ins and outs. I try to stay in the box of my knowledge but I wish I would’ve known this.

    Fair enough. I have Buffalo to win in every moneyline parlay that I have going this weekend. While adding more games does add more risk, it also bumps the payouts or reduces the amount needed to wager for the same payout. I feel like the Bills winning today is about as sure as sure gets in NFL-speak, so I'm not too worried about that game. 🤞

    Good luck!
