Official Week #4 lines for "3+1 Challenge"

[kyro]

Alright. I suck at this. Fade away.


$400 Seahawks
$300 Bills (I know Losman sucks. But the Saints have just been terrible)
$200 Jets (I don't see enough points being scored in this game to make this a 7 point win for the Ravens)
$100 Giants (Bill Simmons told me never to back Martz on the road. Ever. So...go Eli?)

[STG]

$400 Ravens
$300 Cardinals
$200 Bills
$100 Raiders

[Vince Young]

$400 Raiders
$300 Patriots under
$200 Titans
$100 Patriots

[DeucesUp]

$400 Seahawks/Redskins OVER
$300 Jets
$200 49ers
$100 Chargers/Patriots UNDER


Seahawks/Redskins OVER36.5. This will likely be a run oriented game, but these are not the inept offenses nor the dominating defenses one would expect with a 36.5 total.

Jets +7.5. Just when I claim to be fading the Jets, they get a juicy line like this. Game will be way too low scoring to be giving 7.5 points.

49ers+3. The Cards have shown nothing so far and the 49ers have played a couple of decent games. I'll take the FG at a neutral site.

Chargers/Patriots UNDER47. Is this really the highest scoring game of the week?

It's been a rough, rough couple of weeks. Time to turn it around by going 4-0... I'm going to include some logic with my picks, but I do so at the same time telling everyone that I'm terrible at this.

I do think it's good to give reasoning, and I do think it's good to have faith in your reasoning. So even though I'd never trust myself with more than $20 on these, I'm giving my picks + reasoning ...

$400 - Raiders. The best winless team in the NFL, I think. They looked good against Philly and lost a tough one. They'll be looking to make a statement at home against a mediocre Dallas team. I hate this pick, however, because I think the public is overwhelmingly taking Oakland and that just doesn't bode well.

$300 - Texans. The Bengals have not played a tight game yet, and no one blows them all out. That's probably the worst logic you can have, but I think they're due. Texans will cover.

$200 - Packers. Favre and more than a touchdown? Ok. Panthers are overrated and the Packers aren't as bad as everyone says. I like Favre, and I think Green Bay may win this outright after a tight loss last week.

$100 - Eagles. I actually just saw this line, but after MNF I can't believe K.C. is spotting Philly points. Kansas City just looked ineffective on Monday, and is coming off short rest. Philly wins this one outright as well. This is another bet where everyone likes the Eagles though, so watch me get burned. I was going to pick against Washington, just because they're Washington, but this line jumped out at me.

Bengals $400
Raiders $300
Seahawks $200
Chargers $100

I seem to actually bet against what I pick here. I suck here, I'm making some money in real life. Maybe I can correlate the picks this week.

$400 - Houston +10 - As outlined in a previous post, I think the public is overloving Cincy, and this might be the Bar Stool Pundit theory pick of the week.

$300 - Vikings +6 - Vikes poised for a comeback?

$200 - Eagles +2.5 - NFC champs still should win this game.

$100 - Titans +7 - Picking the only home dog this week.
