Survivor Selections
Green Bay Packers (-8) – The ‘Pack is home for the first time in two weeks. Aaron Rodgers loves beating the Lions at Lambeau. Do you need anything further?
Nuggets: Favorite is 7-1, ATS in their last 8 meetings. Lions are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 meetings at Lambeau.
Miami Dolphins (-10) – Are the Browns officially the worst professional sports franchise right now? Maybe not, but they will lose to the better 0-2 football team that resides in South Beach. The Browns will be starting their 3rd QB in 3 weeks. Good luck, Believland.
Nuggets: Browns are 2-10 ATS in their last 12 games overall.
Dallas Cowboys (-7.5) – The Bears are terrible. Dax Prescott is better than any 2016 drafted QB out there outside maybe Carson Wentz. That “warrior” Jay Culter is out and the Cowboys just might make a run. Either way, they aren’t losing in Jerry’s World to the Bears.
Nuggets: Bears are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 September games overall.
Against The Spread Winners
Tennessee Titans/Oakland Raiders (OVER 47 ) – The Raiders pass defense is terrible. The Raiders like to throw a ton. You know what that screams? OVER> Who cares the Titans like to run and keep it close to the vest; Jack Del Rio likes to gamble more than me which means you’re never out of an OVER.
Nuggets: The OVER is 6-0 in the Raiders last 6 games in September overall. OVER is 12-5-2 in the Raiders last 18 games in grass.
Green Bay Packers/Detroit Lions (OVER 48) – A-Rodgers isn’t dead. The Pack will drop some points vs. a Lions defense that loves to give up yardage/points. Matt Stafford misses Megatron, but with new OC Jim Bob Cooter, the up tempo Lions will be an OVER player’s mistress.
Nuggets: OVER is 7-3 in the Lions last 10 games vs. NFC opponents.
San Diego Chargers (+3) – My Bolts are tough to gauge. Should be 2-0, but based on their 2nd half performance in Arrowhead, they sit at a respectable 1-1. Next up, Andrew Luck and the high powered Colts in Indy. The Bolts have lost two of their major playmakers the past couple weeks in Keenan Allen and Danny Woodhead. Plus, the Bolts suck on the road. Then why are you using them as a selection, you might ask? See below.
Nuggets: The Chargers are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 meetings with the Colts. The underdog is 8-1 in the last 9 meetings in this series. The Chargers are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 meetings in Indy.
Baltimore Ravens Angle
(PK, 47.5)
Not to pat myself on the back, but I’m 2-0 calling Ravens game’s in this spot so far. I mentioned the Ravens would struggle with the Browns and guess what, they did before Josh McCown went down.
Yes, they did enough to win.
But this week, I think the line screams how much Vegas thinks of the Ravens so far this year.
Guess what, I think the Ravens lose outright this week. Sue me.
Yea, maybe its that old fashion due theory. All I know is the Jags are better than 0-2; the Ravens aren’t as good as their 2-0 record says.
Jags 31-23.
I don’t know what’s going on in Green Bay, but something “aint right” up there. Maybe ARod just had a bad game last week. Maybe.
