Guru's Golden Picks: Arena Week 8

[degenerategambler]

Got a good looking over in LA..

 

[AFLGuru]

I'm not very confident in this LA game to be honest with you... 7 points from a kickoff, and a lot of good returns, but the offenses don't look very fluent... Stoerner is overthrowing everything.

In San Jose, I don't know if the Sabercats offense has touched the field yet. They had two ridiculously quick answers to Grand Rapids TDs. Grand Rapids is up 20-14 with time left in the 1st quarter, so the over looks good there, but San Jose has yet to pick up a stop... As long as the offense keeps clicking, though, we're one stop from starting a romp. If anyone has that game on radio, it'd be real nice.

 

[AFLGuru]

LA's gonna find a way to win this game... Dallas just picked up a 4th and short to keep a drive alive. No coverage in the SJ game, just the DonBest scoreboard. Doing the best I can.

 

[AFLGuru]

Incredible... Statracker is running ahead of AFLNet... this is insane. This was the worst investment I made this AFL season... pissed away $60.

 

[AFLGuru]

28-14 Dallas after a LONG drive... killed a ton of time. Coming up on the 1 minute warning. 2 more scores would be real nice here.

San Jose up a point in stride against GR, over sitting pretty right now with 21-20 SJ and 11+ minutes left in the half

 

[AFLGuru]

1 minute warning in LA... 28-14 Dallas, LA ball threatening inside the Dallas 10.

 

[AFLGuru]

LA announcers talking about how good their QB is...

They rate Kaleo one of the worst 4 QBs in the AFL... way to go guys. Way to have confidence in your own QB.

 

[AFLGuru]

Great catch by Khori Ivy. 28-20 Dallas pending PAT... onside kick likely coming from LA.

 

[AFLGuru]

5 dry minutes in SJ. Maybe this means the Kitties came up with a stop.

 

[AFLGuru]

TD San Jose... so they DID pick up the stop. 28-20 Kitties. And if they go into the half up 8, they SHOULD be getting the ball first in the 2nd half.

 

[degenerategambler]

quick reply 28-27..

 

[AFLGuru]

TD Dallas... 34-21 pending PAT for Dal... 30 seconds left for LA to do something. Could open up a scary good middle shot in the 2nd half.

 

[AFLGuru]

SJ probably plays to kill the half here... I'll take 35-27 SJ at the half...

 

[degenerategambler]

Don't hedge your winning bet, unless you really feel the under in the 2nd half is a solid play on its own.

 

[AFLGuru]

Man, Dallas screwed out of a pick 6 because of illegal D... And now an acrobatic catch by LA... 1st down at the Dallas 15 with 9 seconds left... Remy's probably coming in here.

Told you degenerate, I'm not sold this is an over game. Stoerner looks pretty bad. Offenses just look pretty bad in general. Special teams has given us a lot of points. We'll see how the o/u looks in the 2nd half.

 

[AFLGuru]

Dallas drops another pick. We're fortunate here. Remy trying a pretty long FG attempt here with 2 seconds left.

 

[AFLGuru]

59 in the half... Great kick by Remy again. NFL will be calling this dude soon. So 46 in the second half for over... we'll see... I'm not sold we get 7 TDs in this 2nd half.

 

[degenerategambler]

If you like the line on the 2nd half under thats one thing. But middling winning bets at halves is another.

 

[AFLGuru]

You'll very rarely see me consider this. But this LA team looks more like the Arizona game offense than the San Jose game offense, and Dallas' defense has pressured Kaleo. Anything greater than 52 I'll play as a middle.

 

[AFLGuru]

35-27 Kitties with just under a minute left in the half. I've gotta imagine SJ is gonna onside kick to try getting the ball last in the half either way. 42-34 would be really nice too... lol
