This week,

Philly +2.5
Pit +2
Denver +1
Dal -7.5
San Fran +3.5

I don't like any of these picks. Or really any of the games this week.

After a few weeks off, I'm back on the bandwagon...

GB -10.5 over Ten
Min/Wsh under 52.5
Atl +7.5 vs. Phi
KC +10.5 vs. Car
Sea +15.5 vs. NE
---
GB over Ten
LA/NYJ under 39
Atl -1 over Phi
Den/NO under 50.5
Car -3 over KC
Mia/SD over 49.5
---
GB -3 over Ten
LA/NYJ under 46.5
NO over Den
Arz -7.5 over SF

Pretty silly to have three parlays with a single common thread, but I just can't imagine how Green Bay loses to Tennessee...

I took carolina denver atlanta whatever their side of the standard spread was as a parlay...and then dallas +2. Ill probably add elliott over whatever their yardage number is.

Canucks opponent - 1.5 is going to be my favorite bet of the year. Im taking it every time the opponent isnt playing the second half of a back to back and this practice is nicely offsetting the dumb nfl parlays im doing.

Yes, I'll be able to quit my job soon if Vancouver keeps playing like how they should be playing...that 4-0 start for them was so awesome...

My power move parlay failed:
Steelers -4.5 (win)
Colts +7.5 (win)
Cardinals -7.5 (loss)
Chi/NYG over (loss)
Jax/Det over (loss)
NE -3.5 (win)

But I hedged it with...
Pit over Cle
Dal over Bal
Ind/Ten under 54.5
NYG over Chi
[another version of this contained KC -7 as well]

So, at the end, modest net gain...

I bet on balt, nyg, and miami to win straight up.

That's what I did. Quit, just wasn't interesting at the level I was betting.

Yeah i guess i should have clarified that my plan was to quit. I still have that preseason post romo injury bet on dallas to win the super bowl which looks delicious right now. If i win that ill probably take $20 to bet on a future and withdraw the rest.

Other outstanding bets

Nyg +2800
Lightning +1000
Mcdavid to win art ross +500
Man united to win...doesnt matter thats over.

I'm just saying that I was a few weeks into the NFL season and just didn't care about watching the games or betting on them. I was still on my initial deposit and played it till it ran out and then never reloaded. Maybe when life gets back to normal I'll start again. My thing was I used it to make games more interesting but I stopped watching the games completely.

Betting supposedly drives the NFL but in my case it worked the other way.

From above...

Came back with NFL:
Chi -10.5 over SF - win
Cin -1.5 over Phi - win
Den/Jax under 49 - win
Oak over Buf - win
TB +4 vs. SD - win

had six game parlay of the same, but with Det/NO over 54, that lost.

Tonight:
Phi over Fla
NJ -1.5 over Van
StL over Mtl
Col/Nsh over 5.5
Det/Wpg over 5

how was the o/u for Den/Jax 49? That seems like a easy bet

too bad I never look at o/u
