No offense everyone but...
What was everyone doing betting so heavy on two under achieving teams in the chargers and Texans???

The Chargers have been awful all year what made anyone think they would be able to cover a 15 point spread against a division foe?

The Texans flat out stink, why everyone was betting them against a Tough ravens D with Sage starting is just beyond me.

The picks this week just didn't make sense. BOL to all of you though i know you will turn it around next weekend

Picks that dont make sense make money in the long run......stay the course.

Big Guy you should rename yourself the Mondaymornig QB.
Hindsight is 20/20. This site and the cappers here have won me more money than they have lost me. Nobody is putting a gun to anyone's head, it all boils down to "you" pulling the trigger.

And I like San Fran......thats what makes betting so nice. If we all liked Arizona the line might be 14......you should thank suckers like me for allowing you to bet great teams at better lines....not call me out for being an idiot.

PEACE

Great line.....Stay the course....

I was hungover as could be yesterday....I was so bad I had a hard time reading and tracking everyone's plays here.....I played 3 games in the NFL yesterday and lost all three...

I got lucky though as I played them for very small amounts....People don't need to jump ship.....Things will turn around and all will be good.....Such is the life in gambling....

Ban or Basement????? I dont think there is anything that is more annoying than someone who posts these kinds of threads after the games are over. This guy had his Game of the Year on Detroit(+6). That part he forgot to tell you guys

Besides kicking people when they're down, what else do you enjoy? I would guess.....you like to spend your weekends at children's hospitals pointing out how sick they are. You are that guy!!! Congrats class act!!!

1) Chargers have a load of talent on both sides of the ball, you can't argue against that. On top of that they are at a bye week, line opened at -14.5 which looked like KC bait, and KC has looked absolutely terrible on the road not to mention starting their 3rd stringer QB.

2)Houston line opened up at +1, public bet the ravens as a road favorite like there was no tomorrow yet there was no line movement, and huge action on Houston just 15 minutes before kick off making the texans 2 point favorites. Sage is also not as bad as everyone thinks, mr.monday morning.

3)Detroit LOL
