I got back over the .500 mark last week and looking to improve on that to get back to .600. This week is very strange as many lines seem to be off. Some begging you to take a favorite who imo should have been favored by a lot more than what they are. Let's get to it:
Top Play: Seattle -8 - Hawks are on a 3 game losing streak surprisingly after horrible loss to Rams and lw loss to Arizona where Hasselbeck simply didn't show up. Seattle even after losing 3 games in a row can move back into a tie for first with a win here. Throwing out the miracle comeback by Rams, Hawks had been very dominating at home winning by an average of 17 ppg. Carolina has had some nice covers on the road but they are getting more and more depleted on both sides of the ball with their star players. I see Hawks getting healthy here as Carolina will go west for the 3rd time in the last 7 weeks. Only way imo Panthers stay close in this one is if Hasselbeck plays the way he did in desert lw. I don't see it happening.
Seattle 27 Carolina 10
Washington +1.5 - I am probably one of the few that has this Packers team figured out the last couple of weeks as I am 3-0 betting side in Packers game with Tenn, GB, and GB. Everything here looks to favor Packers in this one but I think that despite the injuries, Redskins team is improving. This team gained some confidence two weeks ago vs Bears. Though Chicago is terrible, they were able to manage the game and win. Gibbs has always been a master when having time to prepare and will use it their advantage. This game will not be a high scoring affair but Skins will hold down Favre and co enough while offense scores just enough with ball control by Portis to pull off the upset.
Washington 20 Green Bay 17
Top Play Baltimore +7.5 and mL - Call me stupid and definitely in the minority but I think Baltimore will pull the upset in this one. One thing I have learned over the years is don't get this Baltimore Raven defense angry. This defense is angry and motivated. Ray Lewis and Chris McCallister will make it personal vs TO in this one. For those that don't believe they can't do it, just remember how bad they made the Rams look in STL ly. Rams won due to turnovers but they had barely 100 yards of total offense in their house. They were very fortunate to win. Everyone who thinks Mahe or Dorsey can step in for Westbrook is right they can against normal defenses but not against Baltimore. Ravens will not have to worry about running game and make Eagles very one dimensional. If Ravens offense can hold onto the football, they will win this game as I think Ravens defense will get turnovers and score on at least one.
Baltimore 24 Philadelphia 17
Normal Plays:
San Diego -6
Kansas City +1.5
Minnesota -6.5
Atlanta +7
Houston -1
Best of luck.
