Around The NFL -- Week 9

PhillyPhreak54 · November 06, 2005, 11:26:18 AM

Not a whole lot of great match-ups today unfortunately...

Carolina @ Tampa
San Diego @ New York Jets
New England vs. Indianapolis (MNF)

No Roethlisberger or Bettis for Pittsburgh at Green Bay.

Green Bay's RBs might be ReShard Lee and Sam Gado (who?!?)

Atlanta goes to Miami and I think the Fish have a good shot at beating the Vick's.

If Ricky and Ronnie run like they did last week, Atlanta will lose.

chargers/jets is the early tv game where i live.

I agree, Dio. And ATL's run defense has been suspect. They let Smith & Stecker kill them a couple weeks ago.

And Jason Taylor and that defense can contain Ronnie Mexico. The Dolphins weakness is pass defense. Good for them that Saint Mike can't throw.

smokin ricky williams has a td.

I'm getting KC-Oakland in StL...

Are we still posting our gambling habits?

I went with:
KC -4 1/2
Cincy -2 1/2
NYG -10 1/2
Seattle -4 1/2

I bought half points on the Cincy and Giants games -- I hate tying.

Diomedes · November 06, 2005, 02:35:58 PM

If you haven't seen it, look for the replay of LaDainian Tomlinson juking Ty Law out of his jock for the TD. Pretty funny.

Father Demon · November 06, 2005, 02:38:52 PM

Ty looked like a cripple...

Since there was a lot of lines I didn't like this weekend I did a lot of teasers. I did 3 4-team 6-point teasers...

1st one:
SD (-1) @ NYJ
TEN (+8.5) @ CLE
CIN (+3) @ BAL
KC (+1.5) vs. OAK
$15 to win $45

2nd one:
TEN (+8.5) @ CLE
NO (+9) vs. CHI
JAX (-7) vs. HOU
PIT (+2.5) @ GB
$10 to win $30

3rd one:
TEN @ CLE (over 29.5)
HOU (+19) @ JAX
SEA (+1.5) @ ARZ
PIT (+2.5) @ GB
$10 to win $30

I'll probably do a NYG/SNF/MNF teaser too. If I do the 6 point teasers I'll get PHI at +9 and NE at +10 and NYG at -5.

this jets game sucks. put on some bowling.

PhillyPhreak54 · November 06, 2005, 02:48:30 PM

What? You don't like watching the no-passing Jets offense?!?!

All of these early games blow.

I've mainly been watching Tennessee/Cleveland, Miami/Atlanta and KC/OAK

Welbourn has looked horrible today. He's starting at RT.

Burgess has been eating him alive...

the game is kinda close, its just boring. the jets suck. i dont want to watch them. even the 4pm games arent good, except for seeing the giants potentially lose to the niners.
