My nominee for NFL rectum opening (as my dad used to say)of the year is Jacksonville coach Doug Marrone.The Jaguars were up 13 points with 25 seconds to go and the ball on the Jets 1.They take a knee and the game's over.Instead Marrone calls a timeout and runs a regular play which results in a TD.Then to pour salt in the wounds, Jacksonville goes for a 2 point conversion (they failed).

Most unforgivable sin? I had the under.Well that fell by the wayside.

Well I got the Patriots over the Dolphins, in spades.Had the Falcons over the Bengals but Cincinnati got the winning TD with 5 seconds to go and win by a point.

Thursday night football is back as we go into the second quarter of the season.Trends and tendencies are coming into view which makes for a more rational betting environment.Tonight's game is the Indianapolis Colts traveling to Foxboro to take on the NE Patriots.The lines as I write this are New England by 10 with an O/U of 50 1/2.My question is why only 10 points? The Colts are not a good team, they are on the road, their best receiver T.Y. Hilton is out and they played deep into overtime on Sunday in a grueling loss to Houston.None of these factors bode well for Indy.One positive is that Andrew Luck has shaken off the rust and is starting to be the Luck of old.Unfortunately for the Colts, the Patriots came out of their September hibernation last week walloping Miami.The Patriots will often play back to back quality wins.Thus I see an easy Patriot victory.The question is the o/u.I think Luck will get enough garbage time points to push the number into over territory.And even with a 4 TD lead on Sunday, Tom Brady was still in the game late in the 4th quarter,not coming out until the last series.Bellichik likes to keep the gas pedal all the way down, regardless of the score.

YTD 3-4-1 (1-2-1 Win , 2-2 O/U)

darius leonard was a MAJOR injury for the colts.


he was listed as questionable and ended up not playing unfortunately.

Thursday Night Football for Week 6 is here and tonight the Philadelphia Eagles jump on a bus and take the 90 minute trip on I-95 to face my beloved New York Giants. The number is the Eagles by 2 with an Over/Under of 44.I am objective when it comes to blowing the cobwebs off my wallet but I will still take the Giants.I have a feeling the Eagles are one of those Super Bowl teams that have the magical one year than go back to the rest of the pack the next year.The Giants opened up their offense last week and almost beat the Panthers, losing on the second longest field goal in NFL history (64 yards).I will also take the over as there's enough offense on both teams to hit that number.


YTD. 5-4-1 (2-2-1 Win, 3-2 O/U)

That's it .The 2018 season is over for New York Football Giants.All the preseason hype was just that hype.You can't win with a Quarterback who's a statue in the pocket. It's 2018 you need someone who can move around.
The former GM Jerry Reese ruined this team with some of the worst drafts in history. Looking at all the good young QBs in the conference it's going to be a tough road back.
