Guru's Golden Picks: Arena Week 8

[AFLGuru]

37 seconds left, Philly using a timeout... 2nd and about 10 for Tampa after a penalty and a completion, around the Philly 20.

 

[AFLGuru]

OT in Chicago

 

[AFLGuru]

4th and 4, 32 seconds left for Tampa... play of the game...

 

[AFLGuru]

That's the ball game boys and girls. Philly needs forward progress twice for the game.

 

[AFLGuru]

And if anyone ever asked when a 69-63 game is an under game.......

 

[AFLGuru]

Okay, so Tampa MIGHT get another shot at this due to Philly's ineptitude going FORWARD!!!

 

[AFLGuru]

It's 4th down and there's 10 seconds left in the game... If Philly's smart, they'll let Graziani run all the way back through the end zone for a safety... Kill all the time you can.

 

[AFLGuru]

So the ********* are kicking....

 

[AFLGuru]

OMG!!!! Blocked!!!!... Tampa has 5 seconds and the ball of the Philly 15.

 

[TampaLuke]

Shane Stafford freaking SUCKS!!!!!!!!!

 

[AFLGuru]

Philly survives... Not a terrible throw by Stafford, but a nice play by Todd... So we picked up our under in the half and over for the game, but not our Tampa game... And new Orleans just won it in OT.

 

[TampaLuke]

That is the first time a Philly team has beat a Tampa team in any sport in three years. And they did it with their weakest team. I am pissed.

 

[AFLGuru]

Yeah Luke I know.... Don't feel so bad though... 4th place in the division ain't so bad... lol

 

[TampaLuke]

We can leap the Preds with a win at home. Although I am not about to defend this team with Stafford under center. Did you see the defensive play of the game? That was the worst throw I have seen. Stafford should have got the award.

 

[AFLGuru]

Lol... yeah... LOTS of football left to be played in this wacky division. But if the defense keeps this crap up, they're in trouble.

 

[AFLGuru]

Anybody here for the Colorado updates?

 

[AFLGuru]

Crush up 2 scores already on Columbus and they're getting the ball first in the 2nd half.... 21-6 end of 1.

 

[AFLGuru]

It's 28-22 Crush at halftime getting the ball first in the 2nd half... Tempting 2nd half lines... I'll get back to you all...

 

[AFLGuru]

Don't like the spot we're in here with the under... we'll go back and try to grab our middle here...

Colorado/Columbus over 50 2nd half (+100 2 units)

 

[AFLGuru]

Yeah, with the way this has been going, I wouldn't put a ton of points past these two teams. Neither team has taken in a lot of penalties, nor has there been much rushing the ball. Columbus is more prone to taking in stops, but Colorado has only been stopped once. Still, if Colorado stays up a couple scores, we'll be seeing some onsiders. Let's protect ourselves for a nice week regardless and hope that Colorado grabs out cover in the 2nd half.
