I did this a few weeks ago and I would like to stick with it. My apologies for not doing this last week. That was a busy all-around week, but we are here to 'work' this week...

Funny that I bemoaned not jumping on the Rams-Eagles 46.5 early line that came back out at 50.5. Of course we had that weird 2h today. Lucky, I guess...

The first thought here, scheduling wise -- San Francisco

They play week 6 in Cleveland and again go multiple time zones for the Minnesota game.

What a GREAT Sunday night game -- really looking forward to it!

We have road chalk in 7 of the 13 matches.
 
I have no idea why Jacksonville is favored on the road in New Orleans? That's crazy to me. Trevor reliably struggles against strong pass defenses and Etienne won't do much, either, methinks. But I don't think Saints will have an easy time scoring, either.

Commanders seem like a must with that small number at Giants. How many sacks are they going to get?!

Will get knee checked out
October 15, 2023
Following Sunday's 37-20 win over the Colts, Lawrence indicated that he feels okay, but noted that he is slated to get his left knee checked out , Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Per DiRocco, Lawrence indicated that he wasn't sure if he twisted his knee but did relay that there is some bruising. On the plus side, the QB wasn't sporting a wrap, sleeve or brace on his leg after Sunday's contest, but with the Jaguars heading into a short week, Lawrence's status will need to be monitored closely as Thursday night's game against the Saints approaches.
 
Totally agree. Thought TB -3/-3.5 for sure. They should have saved the creamsicles for this week.
 
At first glance I was all over Leos as dogs...but Leos look problematic against mobile quarterbacks dating to end of last year vs Fields and they allow the fourth-most yards to tight ends. On the other side, running back depth issues look worrisome against stout Ravens run D.
 
I won’t be betting Balt coming back from London but could see Leos dropping one here. I teased Det +10 with Seattle.

I think teams are undefeated coming back from London. I read that traveling westward is easier on your body than traveling east
 
Will the scheduling catch up to jax tonight ? 2 weeks in London back for a game then short week on the road
 
Saints great at stopping the run. Not so great at pass rush. I feel like we are getting a very good team at a discount because of Trevor being banged up. Would they really risk having him play if he was that bad? Probably not given their aspirations this year.

On the other side we get the Saints with a banged up O line vs a good pas rush. We have Carr who struggles vs pressure. We have a Saints offense who are not gonna light up the scoreboard regardless.

I feel like it’s a good spot to take a chance that Lawrence’s knee is just all smoke and mirrors.

My main concern is just that I haven’t seen Trevor perform well against strong pass defenses
 
Really interested to see the Steelers offense this week coming off a bye with Dionte Johnson back and Warren expected to get more touches. Expect a few wrinkles and some points (finally).
 
rams offense couldn't score in 2nd half vs philly nor 1st half vs arizona - their pass game was actually very weak - that would be concerning to me. Simple handicap is stafford vs picket, mcvay vs canada but not that easy usually.

Arizona I think will be able to run on seattle- don't think seattle is a relieable favorite at all for survivor and if everyone is on them; u want to be off them

Falcons can't really run anymore; probably because everyone just stacks the box and makes them pass which is what you want them to do

Lions cant defend mobile quarterbacks and are due for a loss - have played a gauntlet of no bodys.

I'll pay to see giants put a competent game together twice. Not sold yet.

Very interested in Arizona. It does look like Seattle pass defense has been putting together longer stretches of good play, lately

Agree on Lions. Tight ends also do well against them. I think it’s a good matchup for Ravens ‍⬛

Tonight's line reeks regardless of -6.5 or -7

Seems like they are begging for SF money, could easily have set the number at 9.5 and gotten about the same action

Seeing early split of 81% SF and 19% Minny. Good thing there's a baseball game at the same time.

Public doesn’t care that Trent, arguably the best player in all of football, is out.

They can scheme to make up for Debo being out.

A less than 100% CMAC is a problem.

They desperately need Greenlaw on defense. If he’s out (questionable now) they’ll be in trouble.

Kyle knows Kirk and they’ve done well vs him in the past. If JJ was playing I think the 9ers would lose. At this point I just want them to sneak out a W. Playing ML in exotics. No spread.

Yeah there are so many moving parts to this game, seems like you could twist yourself into a pretzel trying to cap it and that's simply not worth it
