Colin Wynner

Pretty much a regular
Last week lop-sided plays went 3-5-1; the pool as a whole was 39.2%, so a rough week in the NFL.

That Dolphins line just reeks of a trap and the numbers above suggest that this is a heavily bet public game. It is worth noting that this pool originated in Colorado and, as we see with CU, there is still a heavy Rocky Mountain state presence. Bills/Commandos seems like weather might be a factor, I can see that game being tight as well.

I will be looking at the Bucs (hold your nose) Monday night if the pool does well on Sunday (Dolphins, Bills, Pats, Seahawks, Chiefs and Cowboys), especially considering the number of parlays/teasers will be riding on the Eagles on Monday.

My plays in the pool - this was a rough week to find anything I liked.

Colts +8
Raiders -2.5

Good Luck!
 
I said it in the other thread, but really appreciate this.

Fun info, nice to get a different perspective than what is normally slanted sportsbook numbers.
