    I’ve got Jacksonville winning the division in my futures $220 to win $200.
    With them 1-5 in last 6 I'm hedging my bet

    Tennessee +4.5 for 100.

    Huge game for Fields and Love later. Honestly how can you not take Green Bay in a blow out. I was wrong about Love as he’s just balled out lately. 16 TDs 1 interception. My #1 pick for late games
    Green Bay-3 for 50

    I’ve got a 250 future on the Bills over 10.5 wins. Normally I’d hedge this instead of adding ^^. So am I a homer, a dumb gambler or just over confident. A loss would cost me 450. I still have time to reconsider

    Am I missing something here? I mean am I? Miami going to 0 degrees Kansas City, the defending champions. Miami pulling people out of the stands. Miami 1-6 against winning teams averaging 17 points a game. Miami with Tua. Miami only getting 3 points? Ok talk me out of taking the +1025 and wagering it on butter fingers KC receivers at home!? Please stop me.

    i decided not to touch that game. you make a lot of astute points, but there have been many times this season when it felt like i broke games down in a similar fashion, only for the complete opposite to happen.

    if this was the KC offense from years past, i'd 1,000% be on board with you. but it's not. a terrible receiving corps that has made Mahomes look like a pedestrian quarterback. the defense has given them a piggyback ride to this point.

    Miami is decimated. they are going to be fish out of water in those temps (pun intended). they haven't looked formidable against solid teams. but........and here's the but that could result in the complete opposite happening.........they have firepower. would it be completely out of the realm for them to click on all cylinders offensively and outscore the Chiefs? like, no chance of that happening? man i'd be careful with that. stranger things have absolutely happened this season. for all of their problems, they still have a 4x100 relay team and therefore i don't think it's wise to totally count them out.

    The o/u line looks to hook under players with all negatives cited previously. Weather, Miami not a cold weather team,poor record versus winning teams, etc. It's tempting. So I will chase the over. Just curious with the negs. why a high o/u.

    I decided to spread out the wins. err losses and just enjoy the weekend. This goes against my rule as to pick a game or two that I really feel good about
    Cleveland-1.5 for 25
    Kansas City-4.5 for 50

    The thing about Super wild Card weekend or whatever it’s called there are always at least 2 upsets and 3 dogs that cover. Figuring out which is the problem.

    I’m so tempted to take Tampa just because of the way Philly has played. Mayfield has Goodwin and Evans and Philly can’t cover anyone. Ok talked myself into it. And I’m going against my golden rule. Never bet Tampa or Atlanta.

    I can’t think of any reason not to take Houston +9 on Saturday. They’re the hottest team in football, played the Ravens earlier (-Stroud) and Lamar and starter’s have had 3 weeks off. 3 weeks is an eternity. If they start slow and get down 10 I have no faith in Jackson leading a comeback of any kind. I might even drop a few bucks on the money line +340.

    i have no skin in this or any other NFL game this weekend, but what's strange is that i feel like i can analyze these games more effectively because of that. i said in another thread that i thought Houston would give the Ravens a game. i didn't think Baltimore was nearly as good as everyone made them out to be (via the eye test), and Houston is much better than the oddsmakers gave them credit for (via the eye test). i really felt the difference between those two teams was very thin -- a hell of a lot thinner than a touchdown and a field goal.

    whether or not they'll do it, idk, but Houston can definitely win this game. really wish Fairbairn had hit that FG, but they are right there. playing with confidence, nothing to lose, and backed by a QB whose moxy far exceeds his experience. that is the recipe to knocking off a #1 when people least expect it.

    they can do this. i hope they will for the sake of everyone who bet on them.

    For all the fanfare the OC for Houston was receiving he forgot how to have a simple check down for the blitz. He also forgot how to fill a blitz hole with a TE on a simple 5 yard curl. Stroud ran for his life without a receiver within 10 yards of the line. 3 and 8 before the missed FG he has 3 receivers running outs to the right.
    Defense was on the field way too long.

    Every thing has been stacked against the Bills this year.
    Tre White their best corner Achilles
    Matt Milano maybe the best linebacker in football broken leg
    Daquan Jones missed 14 games
    Those 3, 20% of the Bills salary and the heart of the defense
    In Philadelphia 14 penalties to 1 for the home team tied on a 60 yard field goal in the rain.
    6-6 with a 14% chance to make the playoffs
    Beat Miami in Miami to win the east.
    5 back ups go down against Pittsburgh and 5 3rd stringers finished the game.
    Kair Elam a healthy scratch for 14 games has an interception in the end zone
    AJ Klein called off his couch leads the team with 11 tackles.
    Gabe Davis to miss his 2nd game with a knee had 4 TD’s and 200 yards against the Swifties 2 years ago is out tonight.
    The narrative was Josh Allen is a turnover machine even though he has 44 TD’s and only 2 more INT’s than Mahomie.
    They have won 7 in a row when they were counted out by everyone.
    This is in Buffalo, the mafia and Josh Allen.
    Bills 34-13

    The playoffs haven’t been kind to my bankroll. Started at +1050. Ugh. And of course not kind to my Bills. We’ll get em next year.
    One thing I’ll be watching is Mahomes as an underdog again. Rooting against KC last week, rooting for them this week.
    I also still have two futures working
    San Francisco +350 Conference
    San Francisco +1000 Super Bowl.
    I’m up +1325 with futures so all in all with 3 games left a very good season. If San Francisco wins today I might hedge that SB wager.

    Kansas City +4.5 for 50
    San Francisco-7 for 50
