Default nfl week 9 picks 11/6

Total record: 20-18-1
Total units YTD: +2.2

Philly +3 (+110) (2 units)
Philly +155 - This is soon going to turn into a BSP-like pick with Owens out - "OMG Owens out holy crap back the truck up on washington omg omg omg" - Line was 3 before the news, line was 3 after the news. Andy Reid is 17-3 after a loss since 2000. He is also 35-10 in November/December including 3 throwaway losses at the end of seasons since 2000. I think the Eagles offense will look a lot different tonight, now that they dont have to risk a sideline/media blowup if they don't throw to Owens 138 times a game. The Eagles defense has been very back and forth this year, either fully clamped down and giving nothing up, or wide open and letting teams roll up 40. A trip to Washington against their fraudulent offense is just what the doctor ordered. "OMG OMG No Owens how do they score how can they win this game OMG unload on the Redskins!"

Chiefs/Raiders under 52 - Say with with me now "Chiefs UNDER!" - Chiefs back home, but with a dinged up Holmes - Larry Johnson will have to handle the carries today, and while he's a good back who can churn up the yards, without Holmes there the looks are a little different from the defense. Raiders playing their 2nd straight road game, a divisional rival game, in a very tough environment. This one has all the makings of a shootout, so I'm going under.

3 team teaser (+140)
Philly +10
Chargers/Jets over 33.5
Bengals/Ravens over 30
