1-0 for the week so far
$800.00 -106 Take 'Under' 37.5 Jacksonville at Miami (1 p.m., Sunday, Dec. 16)
This game means pride for the two Florida teams. That means that I think both defenses will have strong games. The last three meetings have happened over the last 10 years for these in-state foes. All three of them went 'under'. I think that this one will be an ugly game from the outset. We have two average quarterbacks and two strong defenses. Miami has only scored over 17 points one time in their last five games. The Dolphins are 2-7 against the total in their last nine games and the Jaguars are 1-2 against the total in the last three.
$2200.00 -110 Take #15 Denver (-2.5) over Baltimore (1 p.m., Sunday, Dec. 16)
this play is from the NFL 411 System.
Right now the Broncos are the hottest team in football. They have won eight straight and have won all of them by a touchdown or more. This team is rolling. The Ravens have lost two straight games. They are coming off an overtime loss at Washington last week. That was an emotional rivalry game. This team has been outgained in eight of its last nine games and they have really been struggling. Baltimore is just 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games and they are 0-5 ATS in their last five games in December. The Broncos have had extra time to prepare for this game. That will work in their advantage. Especially with the Ravens changing coordinators on offense in midseason. That does not happen very often. And I don't know how the Ravens will come out and play for Jim Caldwell. His offense was not very good at all in Indianapolis last year. And I don't think that Caldwell is going to get the better of Peyton Manning. Baltimore is in disarray. Denver is playing great football and needs to win this game to keep hopes alive for a first round bye in the playoffs. I like the visitors here to win a close game

$600.00 -110 Take First Half #323 Detroit (-3.5) over Arizona (4 p.m., Sunday, Dec. 16)
This is a first half play. The Lions have given up the lead in several losses. They get off to a good start. But the defense can't hold up. I don't know if Arizona has the offense to make this a competitive game. Arizona was embarrassed last week in Seattle. They are ready to give up on the season. There will be changes in the offseason and this team is looking to just get this season over. Poor play and injuries have killed this team. Detroit has more talent then its record. They will get up early. We won't worry about another second half collapse.
$2000.00 -105 Take #321 Seattle (-5) over Buffalo (4 p.m., Sunday, Dec. 16)
Seattle is playing great. They won 58-0 last week and they are playing as well as anyone. They are a hot team. Buffalo is not a very good team. They lost last week at home to St. Louis and this team has only won three times in the last 10 games overall. This team is just 4-9-1 ATS in its last 14 games against a team with a winning record. The Bills don't have enough defense to slow down Seattle's strong offense. I think Seattle will get the job done on the road here. They need this win to keep their position in the playoff race and I think they will get it easily and win this game by double digits.
$600.00 -105 Take #319 Carolina (+3) over San Diego (4 p.m., Sunday, Dec. 16)
Carolina looks like they are playing their best football right now. They won at Philadelphia on Monday Night Football three weeks ago. Then they blew out Atlanta last week at home. Now this team goes on the road to face the Chargers. San Diego is off an upset of Pittsburgh last week. But they are 0-4 ATS in their last four games after a win. The Chargers are 5-1 ATS in their last six road games and they have been better away from home Cam Newton is playing well. I don't think the Chargers will have an answer for him. This is a game that can go either way and I think that the points are going to hold up.

[h=1]What Sharps are Betting in Monday Night Football[/h]All of this week’s marquee matchups in the NFL were jammed into Sunday. But, that doesn’t mean that Monday Night’s NY Jets-Tennessee Titans matchup isn’t worth your attention. Before you decide how to handle tonight’s game, you should know what professional wagerers in Las Vegas are doing with their money.
NY JETS at TENNESSEE
Opening Line: Tennessee by 1, total of 42.5
Current Line: Tennessee by 1.5, total of 41.5
You can see that sharps haven’t been betting this game aggressively yet. A brief synopsis of what we’re hearing from our sources:
*Sharps aren’t buying into the “must-win” angle for the Jets. You probably know that New York is still in the AFC Wildcard race. They have the easiest schedule left of contenders, and both Pittsburgh and Indianapolis lost their games on Sunday. Sharps who did get involved here bet Tennessee. No sharps jumped on the Jets after the Steelers and Colts lost. There just is no early inkling of Jets support from sharps as a small dog, even though New York needs the game badly.
*Sharps who are rooting for the Jet are doing so in two-team teasers. The Jets became a qualifier for basic strategy two-team teasers when that line moved to +1.5. That meant you could cross the 3 and the 7 with a tease and get the Jets +7.5. Of course, sharps who teased the Jets with the NY Giants or with Baltimore have already lost those bets. Those who teased the Jets with Miami, Houston (early), or Dallas are still live. We should note that sharps who have access to “open-ended” teasers or early betting lines for next week will try to tie up the Jets +7.5 with options from Week 16.
*Sharp sentiment for Tennessee was muted, which is why the game only moved half a point. We’re beneath a key number. Real passion for the home team would have moved the number closer to three, and might have even touched the three. It’s best to say that sharps have largely passed this game through the week. Those who bet the team side line are rooting for the Titans.
*Sharps will fade any public money that comes in on game day, regardless of direction. Were squares to hit the Jets because of the “must-win” angle, they would take Tennessee at pick-em. Were squares to hit Tennessee, sharps would expand their teaser positions at an even better number…and would certainly hit the dog if the line made it up to a field goal. Sharps agree with where oddsmakers posted the game. They will disagree with wherever the public might move it.
For now…sharps are playing a waiting game. Those who bet preferred Tennessee and Under (or the Jets in teasers). Most felt the best options of the week came yesterday. Good options may present themselves before kickoff though if public money moves the line.
