    why do you think Minn is only favored by 3?

    Vikings by 3 over Cowboys?

    I hate the Boyz, but the wrong team is favored.

    Always looking for original, better date VF20-VF35 Barber quarters and halves, and a quality beer.

    The little guy on one shoulder is telling me it's because the Cowboys are America's Team, and a heavily bet on one at that, and this line is a steal.

    The little guy on my other shoulder is telling me "Don't do it, someone knows something, it's a sucker bet"

    I think I'll stay away. lol

    Chargers -7 seems most interesting to me.

    What is the over on the saints game?

    My best value bet of the week is:

    Money Line Parlay on the Ravens and Cardinals to win outright - $10 to win $95.40

    Best Parlay:

    Vikings -2.5 and Chargers -7 is $10 to win $25.69

    Best 3 team tease (7 points):

    Chargers (PK) with Cardinals (+14) with the Over (37) in the Colts/BAL game

    I put a small amount of money on this bet ($10), except I have under 50 in the Colts/Balt game.

    The line is only -3 in the MIN/DAL game because with the exception of the game against a Giants team that clearly laid down, the Vikes struggled big time down the stretch, and the Cowboys have looked awesome, especially on defense. I think the Cowboys are going to win that game.

    That Jets line is way too low. SD's offense is light-years ahead of Cincy's offense. Revis will shut down VJax, but SD has too many other weapons for the Jets to contend with. And I don't think Sanchez can put together 2 straight solid performances on the road. If SD gets up 10-0, it's over.

    Until Warner chokes in a playoff game, I refuse to pick against him. 7 points seems like too much, especially with the way the Saints finished up the season.

    I'm having a hard time figuring out the BAL/IND game, but teasing BAL with the Under seems too good to pass up.

    On the Ravens bandwagon again, eh? I vaguely remember you loving them last year against the Steelers in the AFC championship game, too. I think this is the game with the biggest blowout potential. If Flacco needs to do anything in this game, the Ravens are toast.

    My picks are Saints, Colts, Cowboys, and Jets to keep it close, and cover, but lose...

    I don't recall, but I would believe you if you told me I was on the Ravens bandwagon. This year I don't like Baltimore to win, but I do like the value that you get with a money line parlay. It's easy to bet the parlay and then hedge by laying the points for $5 with the Colts. Seems like a no brainer to me.

    Gambling isn't about picking winners. It's about picking winners for the right value (return on investment).

    Nothing should be considered a no brainer when it comes to gambling. Never seems to work out that way.
