it didnt exactly format right...
if the spread is before the over/under point total then the away team is favored...if the spread is after the over/under then the home team is favored.
i have attached a formated list to this post

here are my picks:
Titans over
uBengals under
Giants under
uSeahawks under
Raiders over
Panthers over
Falcons over
Chiefs under
uCardinals under
Jaguars under
Redskins under
Niners over
Steelers over

Bucs under

Never got into the whole betting/spread thing as that would require something that I dont have, money. My understanding of it is very limited so instead Ill just simply give you my picks on winners.

New England Patriots:D
Bills:mad:
Dolphins (Ricky Williams is a machine)
Packers
Bears (I hate the raiders)
Panthers
Vikings
Cheifs
Cardinals (bah who cares)
Jags
Eagles (Phily ties prevent me from saying Reds because they will beat and possibly kill me)[close game tho]
Lions (trouble in T.O. town)
Steelers

:D :D Patriots won:D :D

Ohhhh yeahhhhh baby!!! That was a good game no that was a GREAT game. My faith in the Pats has been fully restored. They actually have a running game and some decent def now. Besides wanting to strangle those pinstripe wearing, flag throwing, azz monkeys, it was a good game.

Only got one wrong so far:P

ohhhhh woe is me
i didnt do well fellas....i went 1-12 with a push
nottttt tooooooo good.
and the one winner i got was a upset winner

went 7-13 on point totals tho so there is hope
went 4-13 on spreads not bad but could be better


betting parlays you have to get the spread and the over/right to win but if you do its a 3-1 payout instead of 2-1.
so at $10 a game i would have lost $80 on the weekend with monday night in the balance....if i win monday night ill only lose $50...if i was betting that is:roll:

heres the results if you can understand them...dont know how the formatting will turn out:::

Opposing quarterbacks have just a 29 rating when facing the Bucs D so far... Edgerrin James is not 100%... Marvin Harrison is tough to cover, but that presumes that Manning will have time to get him the ball...

That being said, I think the colts have a shot... Nobody knows former teams' tendencies like former coaches... just ask Jon "Chucky" Gruden... and the colts D is no slouch either...

Should be an awesome game, but the bucs D personnel is better than the colts offensive personnel... plus great D trumps great O... will come down to turnovers and special teams most likely.... but Bucs will pull out the W with their customary bludgeoning style of play...

Try reading the post you corsair-flying woman! :D :D

"...but Bucs will pull out the W with their customary bludgeoning style of play... "

That betting stuff is too confusing... besides, if I sat down and figured it out, there goes my paychecks :D

Picking final scores is pointless, you might as well pick dates by throwing darts at a phonebook...

How about them Falcons, huh? <---- cheap shot

yeah i saw that but i was looking for a score...Bucs are favored by 4.5....total points in game is estimated at 38.
will the bucs win by 4.5? will the total points be over/under 38?

hummm a method i havent tried yet.
you would be suprised at how close all the lines actually are.
i think its all rigged actually. there is too much money bet on the game for them not to be rigged. if its on the boards in Vegas then some one has the fix in.

Bah...they were looking good in the first half...then the wheels fell of the train.:wall:
