NFL finest bets, Week 9: A Scumbag likes teasers (Cowboys, Saints!) in a weekend of gross football

This practically fits our system of home underdogs coming off of a win as a roadway pet. Since Carolina was home last weekend, it is not totally in positioning with our wagering system, however offer me the points.

Dallas is playing in a divisional videogame versus the Eagles. You understand I like to take the points there. I believe Dallas can keep this one close and even threaten to win the videogame.

The Saints are going to requirement all the wins they can get to win that soughtafter Division title. I believe they bring their A-game in front of a fired-up crowd to get them to 5-4 and in excellent position to compete for the NFC South. I’ll have a little parlay if the numbers are right on this mix as well.

If you watch the videogames and not the box ratings, you will understand how bad Seattle hasactually been. Baltimore must take care of organization at home. [Ed. note: This feels like a shot at me for backing the Seahawks a few times. It’s also where I’ll point out they’re 4-1-1 against the spread in the last six weeks and the only miss was by a single point against the Bengals.]

This is a situational handicap that I will constantly play. The week after a coach gets fired, insomecases the gamers respond well. That, integrated with the reality that they are playing the Giants, makes Las Vegas the chosen side for one system.

Scumbag locks last week: 1-1-1 (.500), +0.5 systems
Scumbag locks year to date: 17-10-1 (.625), +12.5 systems

It is worth keepinginmind that this is the most traditional New England Patriots week of all time. I would usually be hammering them, however they haveactually been so hard to trust, I may have to back off. Bill Belichick vs. a veryfirst year QB, the group in desperate requirement of a win, and a home crowd who requires something to cheer for. I’m not on them yet, however I might see this being a dominant Patriots win.

The Detroit Lions put in work to not cover on Monday night versus the Las Vegas Raiders thanks to turnovers. Fortunately for me, Jimmy Garoppolo stays notsure that Davante Adams exists and we left with another lucrative week.

This week, I’m banking on a bounce-back from a Chiefs group that looked damaged last Sunday. There are a coupleof variables in location for this Frankfort videogame, however the truth stays Tua Tagovailoa is 1-6 in begins versus 2022 playoff groups and those slated to make the playoffs in2023 Maybe this is his development, or possibly getting Kansas City getting its [expletive] beat is what the Chiefs required to increase up and make that record 1-7. I, of course, reserve the right to feel foolish when Tyreek Hill ratings his 3rd goal of the earlymorning.

The Saints aren’t excellent, however the Bears are a mess and Tyson Bagent, inspiteof what last week’s broadcast group may inform you, is not the kind of gamer whose videogame movie Justin Fields requires to be studying. A complete goal on the roadway is a hard spread to conquered for a quarterback who now has enough experience for challengers to coordinate versus, even if New Orleans hasn’t been especially great inside the Superdome this year.

The Cincinnati line recommends Buffalo is a couple points muchbetter than the Bengals on a neutral field, which would haveactually been precise early in the season however I’m not so sure about now. Joe Burrow appears totally healthy and the Bills’ secondary is worrying enough that they simply paidtoomuch for Rasul Douglas, who’d offered up a 109.0 score in protection as a Packer this year. I wear’t love-love these lines, however I’ve persuaded myself there’s worth in all 3.

And hi, if we’re consistingof prop bets, Rachaad White, who is av
