First of all, the Bills beat Montana in his second to last NFL season, with a much better team.

Second, as far as betting goes, I don't understand people betting against the Patriots, so I like them and the Vikings with the over on the Eagles game. I'm not touching the o/u on the Pats game, I could see a 3-0 score or something a lot higher.

You like the Vikings in what, the NFC consolation game? Coulda sworn Philly spanked em last week and sent em back to Minnesota.

I assume you meant Atlanta...but couldn't resist [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Yeh, easy to say that now. Of course at the time, everybody and their brother was picking the Chiefs after they beat the red-hot Oilers (who had won 11 straight with a great defense), and Montana was still playing well.
The point is - outside of the Giants SB - the Bills won all of the games they were favored to win, including all of their home games.

But when has the general public known anything about football? Just look at last week.

Okay, the Falcons were pretenders after all, at least on grass against a good defense. At least I got the early under pick correct.

We'll see what happens for game number 2.

I'll get you for that comment next year, if you don't turn tail and run again like you did THIS year!

Of course, just like my "3+1" season, I'm only around .500. This weekend makes me 10-10 for picks for the playoffs (with the most wins coming on the o/u picks, I believe).
