wow, that was the craziest game since the 4th quarter 34 point comeback game!
as a buffalo fan, that was so disheartening. +5 turnover ratio, 1 kickoff return, 2 interception returns, and they STILL can't pull off a win? They had so many opportunities, caught so many breaks, and they still flounder in the final minutes. That was a pathetic performance.
look at it this way... if they lose by 1 point without scoring a single offensive touchdown, thats not bad :)
I've been a Bills fan for 20 years, and honestly, considering the injuries they have on defence, and that they have a rookie quarterback at the helm, it was a great performance. I think it's something they can build on, and take a lot of positives away from...Quote:

As a Cowboy fan, and a Buffalo hater, I am extremely happy with the final results. Even though Romo played poorly, they stil managed to win te game. WooHoo.:lmfao

There were some positives, yes. Their defense and special teams played great (if we don't count the last 4 minutes). But their offense was invisible. They had so many opportunities to ice the game with first downs, and they couldn't get them when they mattered.Quote:

Donny, New England will kill dallas. There is no question in my mind. I don't know what the spread is but I'm saying NE by 20+ points. I want to see NE destroy INDY as well
Spread will probably be 5 or 6.
The only thing I hate is that when the home team has points they usually cover. Since the beginning of the year Home team with + pts are way ahead.
Last week: 3 - 1 (Buffalo, San Fran and St. Louis covered, Kansas City loss)
WEEK 3: 2 - 1
WEEK 4: 4 - 1 (if I remember)
I will also take New England...
A healthy NE will win. They definitely need a healthy Maroney to win a title though.
Well, my heart says the Cowboys. But logically speaking the Pats should win. Having said that, considering the game is being played in Irving, it should be closer than what people think.
And I fully expect Romo to have a bounce back game after his worst outing in the Cowboys uniform.
Other thing going for Dallas is New England is 0-4 in Dallas. They've never won there. Its a tough suicide pool week too. I'm in a big one and I think if I can make it through this week my chances of winning will be severely helped. No w I just need to come up with a pick?
a big on eh? which one? cause I'm in a HUGE one ahah
I think were 300 or so but down to 177.
yeah, the one I'm in is 1300 poeple, down to 425

Thanks Willy...
I should do the same and keep track.
This week there are 5 home dogs and I don't see any of them winning (or covering).
KC +3, Jets +3, TB +3, Dallas +5 and Atlanta +3
What do you guys think?
Chambo
KC +3, Jets +3, TB +3, Dallas +5 and Atlanta +3
TB isn't a dog.
Here are the home dogs that covered this season, would you have picked any of them?
DEN -3
BUF
PHI -3
GB
NYG -3.5
DAL
CIN -7
CLE
IND -7
TEN
NO -5
TB
IND -6.5
HOU
SD -5.5
GB
BAL -3.5
CLE
CHI -2.5
DET
HOU -2.5
ATL
NYJ -3.5
BUF
PIT -5.5
ARI
PHI -2
NYG
ARI -3.5
STL
BAL -4
SF
DAL -10.5
BUF
Which ones would I take?? KC +3, Jets +3, Dallas +5 and Atlanta +3
I would take them all except for NE. I might go against ATL because the actual line for my pool is 3.5 and that 1/2 point is huge.
Sorry, you are right Tennessee is +3... Easy picking... Vince Young
I have pick 12 of these underdogs. I like underdogs at home but this week I don't know. It has to change at some point and go back to 50/50.
I think I will play the law of average and take all the visitors...lol
KC, Jets and Atlanta are playing 3 really good team. I know the Bengals don't have a good start but I really like their offense. It will be interesting like every week-end.
Thanks for your input.
Chambo
one last thing... its never 50/50 for home dogs. Its always closer to 60%-65% dogs
Thanks Willy for all those numbers. You are not too silly...
