The 2015/2016 NFL Thread v. yfw da jest win da superb owl

My boys have some catching up to do! Luckily they play Tom Brady next week. ;)

I was actually thinking about this bet yesterday and am probably screwed either way. The Bills got so many sacks last season because the offense sucked, couldn't stay on the field, and the defense had to be out there all the time. If the Bills offense keeps playing like it did yesterday the defense is going to see significantly less field time than last year.

Either way I plan on winning this bet!
 
Still elated after yesterday's Rams win. Easily the best win of Jeff Fisher's tenure, and possibly their best win in almost a decade. The young o-line, despite a few high-profile bad moments, looked okay, certainly way better than last year's o-line (Scott Wells and Davin Joseph, you are not missed). Foles didn't make every throw, but he ran a much better offense than Bradford ever did. And the defensive performance was downright inspiring despite giving up 31 points. Aaron Donald is going to have a hell of a year.

On the down side, why the hell is Isaiah Pead still on the roster? There have to be at least two dozen street free agents that could do better.
 
Yeah I was impressed with Rams over Seattle. Wish I could have watched the game but it was on during the Bills game. Seems like it was a scrappy game from the highlights.
 
the cowboys/giants game was really fucking entertaining last night. lots of entertaining moments, but the best part IMO was when tony romo dropped a snap, recovered it, and threw a pass for the winning touchdown with like 7 seconds left on the clock. which in a way sort of sums up the entire game -- sloppy but good.
 
rams defense lived up to the hype yesterday. can't wait for eagles game tonight.

I knew I should have watched that one. I went to bed early instead. :!
 
God I hate the fucking cowboys. Giants did it to themselves by playing that shitty ass prevent defense. Dallas had like 60 yards in 3 plays by just throwing it to the RB on the last drive. The Giants end of game management was just terrible. Oh well. But I am fucking pumped to see my Eagles play tonight. I was planning to attend the game but good seats where going for 250 dollars plus! Cant afford that.
 
I've been looking forward to seeing the Eagles play for the entire preseason/offseason. I think they're going to be really exciting this year.
 
Jennings said he was told not to score on 1st or 2nd down with goal to go and around a minute left. Wtf? It would have given them a 10 point lead. Morons.

I wish we still had Foles. Now I feel like it's just a countdown to when Bradford loses a leg...
 
a buck on each and a $50 parlay for the heck of it
got some baseball run line bets going too (nats, dodgers)


Nice. I like the confidence


I have a pretty strict rule that I never bet on NFL when it comes to football (only college) .... but I'm actually on the fence about throwing money down on the Vikings because I think they're going to blow the niners out.. and I think we're going to see a really strong performance by the Vikings defense tonight.

I also like your parlay.. and I'm considering doing it with a 6 pt teaser... So I can have [Vikings +4 and Eagles +3 (-110)] which is really not a bad bet at all the more I look at it... hmm lol

I just don't know about the Eagles tho... Especially going against Matt Ryan at home, where he's had a lot of success since he came into the league.. Atlanta plays a lot faster on turf

71% of the public is on Philadelphia too which makes me a little hesitant .. But 70% are on the Vikings as well. One thing I've learned is if you want to be profitable.. you want to be on Vegas's side as much as possible. Books got destroyed though this weekend with the amount of favorites that covered the spread

I'm sure that will all change next weekend lol

seeing some sparks now. sproles is pretty good to watch - so fast. bradford making some passes now. murray finally showed up. q4 should be interesting.

Im losing my mind guys. First half was the worst I have seen Eagles play under Kelly. If we manage to pull this one out it will be a miracle.
 
all the off-season talk said that the 49ers were going to be bad this year. they look pretty good tonight. kapernick is showing discipline, poise and smart decision making. the defense is doing a great job - ap has only 31 rushing yards and the team 207 total yards. and carlos hyde is having a career night.

I'm taking for tomorrow:

Eagles -2.5
Vikings -1.5

On the plus side, each loss and Bradford's eventual injury will only get Chip closer to the door.
