4* Total Money OVER Cowboys/ Seattle 

Taking the COWBOYS. Going to sprinkle some ML in on these guys also. We have seen that both of these teams can score. And both can give up some points. We are already on the over. Something just tells me Dallas really shows up this week. I mean, Ok. Wilson with 9 TDs in his 2 games. But, Seahawks have been outgained (970 yards) in their two games. Dak and Dallas overcame multiple 15 point holes. Seattle is 3-7 ATS last 10 and that was with a great home-field edge. Dallas as a fave, eh, I'm leery. As a dog, I will bite - just like this live dog this afternoon. 8* Sure Shot DALLAS COWBOYS 

Taking the PANTHERS. So - we faded both of these last week with mixed results. I will gladly take Carolina even with no CMC here. Chargers already said Taylor the starter if healthy. Herbert was more than solid in spot start vs KC. And lets talk about that game for a second. LAC goes toe to toe before the bumbling HC makes another dumb call to punt in OT - like hey, KC hasn't scored that much today, we can hold Mahomes down. 58 yard FGs like chip shots. What a demoralizing loss. Tough to get off that matt after that one. Tough loss. Bad coach. Give me the points. 4* Money Maker CAROLINA PANTHERS

Taking the BENGALS. So - Cincy has cost me the last 2 weeks of NFL. I will now jump on the back-door kids. And honestly, I think they win this one outright. Fact is, Philly basically a .500 club since winning the Super Bowl. And their Super Bowl MVP is on the bench in Chicago. Cashed a Best Bet on Rams last week. We will fade Philly for the 3rd consecutive week. Give me the points. 4* Money Maker CINCINNATI BENGALS 

Taking the TITANS. We are Tenny again. 3 in a row on these guys. Look. I have a under future on Minny. Obviously, I thought they would be just ok. But this offense has been brutal. I say that even after they put up those points vs GB. This is a team in flux. The defense, a ZImmer staple, is bad. Colts should have scored 40+. I think Stefanski leaving the OC and heading to HC Browns is a problem. Diggs gone is a problem. No fans, a huge problem. Titans just grind out games and win. 4* Money Maker TENNESSEE TITANS 

Taking the PATRIOTS. We have the Hoodie vs Gruden. No contest. We cashed Vegas on MNF while riding the Over in our free pick video Sunday. Nice emotional win for the Raiders in their new stadium. Now they face the best HC and a QB who looks like he is healthy and back in Super Bowl Season form. Tough one for sure the way it ended Sunday night. But this is a team that just goes about its business. Let's flash back to when we had the Panthers in Week 1 over Vegas. That should have been a win for us. This coach won't make those mistakes to cost a team the win. Especially coming up a yard short last week. 2-0 and off a big win over the Saints. Nowhere to go but down for the Silver and Black. 10* Money Bomb NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS 

Taking the GIANTS. I get it. Higgs. How the F are we taking another crap dog! You are killing us with the Browns and Giants in Week 1 - Lions + Jets Week 2. Oh the pain. This line is coming down for a reason. SF is pretty banged up. Giants are in desperation mode. I get no Barkley. But that might actually help NYG since they will realize this is a passing league and they have some weapons. Won't be shocked at an outright win here. 5* Best Bet NY GIANTS 

4* Total Money OVER Nuggets/ Lakers 

4* Cold Cash TB LIGHTNING 

Taking BAYLOR. Taking a team that has yet to play laying nearly 20. Count me in! Especially against Kansas. Man this program is down. Les Miles really has his work cut out for him. Bears with a new HC. But he's a defensive guy so I expect them to control Kansas here. I mean really - we had Coastal Carolina as a dog outright over these guys a couple weeks ago. Bears put up a 61 spot last year. That would be nice. But I am thinking something like 45-10. 4* Money Maker BAYLOR BEARS 

Taking ARMY. Had these guys way back to start the season. Will grab them getting the nice points here. Any time I can get a team like Army, triple-option control the clock, vs a team like Cincy that thinks it can move the ball at will, I'll grab them. And look at this total, 45. So they think low scoring game. Army is going to score this game. Cincy hasn't seen the triple option in 2 years. This has one possession game written all over it. 4* Money Maker ARMY 

4* Money Maker WEST VIRGINIA 

4* Money Maker IOWA STATE 

Taking LOUISVILLE. Grabbing ML +130 also. Obviously I like the Cards. Had them as they lost to Miami. But Pitt isn't bringing speed or talent to the field. This is a team that can't run the ball vs Syracuse or Austin Peay.  And, giving the Canes 3 TOs doesn't help the cause either. Big game for UL here. Think the offense carries them this aftenroon. 4* Money Maker LOUISVILLE CARDINALS

4* Total Money OVER Miami/ Jags

Taking the JAGUARS. So, this guys bit me in the ass the last 2 weeks. Miami another team I backed last week. Look. We are already on this over at 46 and 46.5. I think we see some points. I just don't know if Miami keeps up. FitzMagic as I said is a yo-yo. Good, bad, great, horrible. Playing the Bills tough is one thing. They are division rivals. Always a tough one. Now they out of division vs a team playing way better than anyone though. Minshew Mania is real. Guy is off to a nice start. Obviously, I was wrong out of the gate on these guys. I thought dejected franchise. But, never quit vs Colts. And the Titans, who mauled them last year, they gave them all they could handle. I'll lay the short price on a short week. 4* Money Maker JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS

Taking the RAIDERS. Faded these guys and nearly pulled it on with some ML magic on Carolina. I will gladly take them  here as a nice home dog. As much as we liked the Saints and cashed them on the Free Pick Video, Brees was ok, nothing special. And he loses his #1 WR target. They still have weapons though. That being said, I think we pound them with Jacobs on the ground. Saints got 3 TOs including a nice pick 6. Upset in Sin City. 4* Money Maker LAS VEGAS RAIDERS

Taking the RAVENS. Huge edge at HC - and that is where these games are won. Ravens wasting no time making up for their playoff last year by blasting the Browns. Now they get a rested Texans team. 41-7 last year Baltimore. Houston looked great for us opening night. A nice TD on the opening drive. Then, nothing. Remember. the 41-7 game was 0-0 after the first quarter ended. After that 7-0 lead on KC in the first quarter, 31 straight before Texans scored with 7 minutes left in the 4th. Do we have to even go back to the playoffs. It was 21-0 Texans in KC after the 1st quarter and 24-0 before KC scored with 10 minutes left in the 2nd. Hello 28-24 KC at half and 41-24 before Texans score again. Ravens by double digits and off to the races. HC opening ahead in Houston. 4* Money Maker BALTIMORE RAVENS 

Taking the CHIEFS. How many times have the Chargers screwed me over. Over the last few years, holy cow. I am doing my best to get away! Look. They had chances to cover that number vs Cincy. Cincy though looks like a good back-door team as they are 2-2 after the Thursday game. That being said. Center out. Still learning offense QB who I actually like. A HC that should be shown the door at seasons end. Andy Reid basically on a bye with this extra rest. I think its something around 20-3. But who needs that when you are on a 10-0 ATS/SU run anyway? KC can dictate the score here. Double digits should not be a problem. 4* Money Maker KC CHIEFS

Taking the REDSKINS. Had both of these dogs last week. One undefeated will fall from the ranks today! - Look. I know everyone is down on Washington. But. I like the HC. Instant respect from the players. The offense is what it is. The defense though. Always tough. Like I said last week. It is a unit that gets overlooked. Make no mistake, they will get after Murray. And you know I like this kid and have high hopes for the Cards this season. Washington gets after the QB, and will force some mistakes and bad throws. If you can find a 7 great. Either way, I think this one plays close. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON REDSKINS

Taking the BUCS. Uh. You know I hate big faves like this. That being said, think we are in a good spot this afternoon. We get Tampa off loss at Saints and Brady not looking good. Panthers come in off wild one vs Raiders. Now. If you are in that kind of shoot-out with Vegas, you are in trouble vs Tampa. Rhule has to adjust to NFL defenses and realize this isn't Big 12 football. Joe Brady is the wonder OC from LSU. Well, that offense that made a Heisman winner for Burrow was just so adapted from his time as a Saints offensive assistant. The same offense they played last week. And same offense they play twice a year, every year. I don't think Carolina scores 20 today. And my numbers show 31+ for Tampa. 4* Money Maker TB BUCCANEERS 

4* Total Money UNDER Denver/ Steelers 

Taking the JETS. Going to be an ugly one this week. Grabbing NY here. Look. They looked terrible against the Bills. Couldn't get anything going early. 4 punts and a pick first 5 drives while giving up TDs on 3 of the Bills first 4 drives. SF losing last week not shocking. We had Arizona. And as I said then - Cards play SF tough. Now the Niners are flying east for an early start. Everyone expecting a blow out. No Bell, No Problem. Gore is ageless! Would you really be shocked to see him work over a team he played with for a decade? Everyone looking one way, we are going opposite. 4* Money Maker NY JETS

Taking the DOLPHINS. Yes we will go with another ugly home dog today. The sports world penciling the Bills in for the playoffs. Bills Mafia booking Super Bowl reservations. Me, I'm grabbing Fitz-Magic off a bad game. Guy is a yo yo. Double revenge spot as Bills won both last year. 4* Money Maker MIAMI DOLPHINS 

Taking the TITANS. Faded the Jags last week and they bit me right in my fat butt. Had Titans at a PK so I was happy. But really, that is a loss. FG kicking becoming something of a novelty I guess- a dozen misses last week? Look. We are getting great value here. This line should easily be double digits. But Minshew Mania is in full effect. FG kicking worries for the home team off a nail-biter. 42-20 last year here, 30-9 the year before. Safe to say Tennessee handles Jax at home. 4* Money Maker TENNESSEE TITANS 

Taking the LIONS. Ooh. This is a tough pill to swallow for sure. We were all over Rodgers and the Pack last week like white on rice. It would be easy to say, oh course GB will win this by a touchdown. I don't know folks. If things were that easy would there be billion dollar hotels in the middle of a desert? Lions already in mid-season form. They blew 7 4th quarter leads last year and are jumping into that deep end of the pool right out of the gate allowing the Bears to run off 23 and lose. I will say now that I think Matt Patricia is out of Detroit after this season, 100%. 4* Money Maker DETROIT LIONS 

Taking the RAMS. Eagles going to Eagle. We had Washington last week and the defense did exactly what I thought they would do. 8 sacks of Wentz. Injuries already piling up in Philly. Normally I don't simplify things by saying if you can't stop X, how will you stop Y. In a case of now preseason games and practices though, I will. Cowboys a much better team talent wise. Even if their new coach was as lame as the old one in the play calling. Rams have a lot to prove after last season. Can't see how their pass rush does not get to Wentz at least 5 times. They have the best guy on the DL in the game. Yes - early start west to east for LAR. But I will be more inclined to fade them next week at Buffalo since the Covid forces them to go home and not stay in nearby. McVay will have the offense exploiting Philly weaknesses. 5* Bets Bet LA RAMS

Taking the HEAT. Again. The money train continues. 4* Money Maker MIAMI HEAT 

Taking LOUISVILLE. Time for a little revenge. 52-27 Canes last year. But - things change. New QB under center for Miami. King comes over from Houston. He had a solid 12-82 on the ground and 15/23 in the air for 141. That was against UAB. UL brings back 8 starters on offense and defense. Home team delivers. 4* Money Maker LOUISVILLE CARDINALS 

4* PL Money TAMPA BAY

Taking APP STATE. Slow starting out of the gate vs the 49ers last week. But, we take a 97 yard KO return and this score looks different. Heck. They booted a 49 yard FG also. The defense looks pretty good. Yeah, the Herd blasted EKU 57-0. That was a glorified scrimmage. No practices and a tune up vs a bad team. Appy controlled a bowl team and made it look easy going away. No slow start vs Marshall who has to replace 7 defensive starters from last year. 4* Money Maker APPALACHIAN STATE 

4* Total Money UNDER - Was leaning ND here, but will just go with the total. I understand Irish didn't look good. But, the halftime adjusts worked as Duke went from about 250 yards at the half to just 82 after. Enter South Florida in off a 27-6 win over the Citadel. ND defense is not the Citadel. The QB was 11-16 for 68 yards 1 TD. That won't get things done. +3 turnovers isn't happening. I don't think Bulls get to 10 points. 

4* Money Maker NOTRE DAME 

Taking OKLAHOMA STATE. Time to release the Chuba. Hubbard ran wild on Tulsa last season going for 256. That 90th rank defense brings back 4 starters. So, safe to say they aren't loading up on 4 star recruits to fill the void. Cowboys always explosive on offense. 18 starters back for OSU including aforementioned RB and their QB Sanders along with his top 3 WRs. 10 starters back on defense should be able to corral Tulsa. 4* Money Maker OKLAHOMA STATE

4* Total Money UNDER Cincy/Browns

Taking the BROWNS. Had these guys and watched them get demolished on Sunday. Also faded Cincy and had to hold for dear life just to earn a push with the Chargers. So - First drive for Cleveland INT and 8 plays later a TD. Next possession. Run a fake punt and fumble the ball. FG. 10-0 just like that. But. We did come right back for a TD. Missed the PAT, and that should have told us we are going to be in for a long day. And it was. A 99 yard drive for a TD. We miss a FG - 70 yards in about 40 seconds, its 24-6 and we are done. Hunt and Chubb went for 130 combined which is nice. I don't see them playing catch-up vs Cincy. Ah the Bengals. I can't even write the Chargers HC name since he is so terrible. Maybe I should have said, he's a crap HC, and just stayed away. But Taylor was a winning QB for the Bills. Plenty of weapons. And, Chargers do what they do. Shoot themselves in the foot, time and time again. Last week Cleveland saw an MVP performance from opposing QB completing 20/25 3 TDs. Burrow led a great drive to put them in position to win or tie the game. But overall. Come on. 23-36. Pretty sure he was 8-12 on the last drive. All short stuff. 5 yards a pass. Short week for a rookie QB, on the road. Fans or not, it is a tough task. I think we have a great play here. Everyone down on the Browns saying same ol' Cleveland. While everyone saying, wow, Burrow nearly had a last minute TD drive negated by an OPI. That game was ugly because the players played ugly. Browns in a blow-out. 8* Sure Shot CLEVELAND BROWNS

KC got him for 9 hits and 4 runs in 5 innings way back in his 2nd start. Still sporting a .306 BA Against which is good for us visiting hitters! 4* Money Maker KC ROYALS 

Taking the JAYS. I know that NYY has reeled off 5 straight. Garcia beat the Jays his last start. What better time to face a guy then right after he beat you. Walker has been more than solid this season with a sub 3 ERA in his 8 starts. Maybe Judge or Stanton returns. I'm not scared. This is a great number for a team that is playing well and has already beaten these guys 2 out of 3. 4* Money Maker TORONTO BLUE JAYS

Taking the HEAT. Have to say. A little shocked Raptors forced 7 on Boston. Thought was ending quickly. But, here we are. Rested Miami. Boston off a rugged Game 7. Tough to get back on the saddle and find that energy so quickly. Heat must win this one if they have any thoughts of getting to the Finals. 4* Money Maker MIAMI HEAT 

Taking the TITANS. One. I like Denver to go Under their season win total. The loss of Von Miller is a big loss. Hopefully Tennessee will start pounding the ball and not an entire season to get their run game involved. I still like the offense and I think their defense should contain Lock and this Bronco O. 4* Money Maker TENN TITANS

Taking GIANTS -- First.. A quick Sunday recap on some games. I know some of you follow me on twitter if you don't you should real underscore higgs.  Saw a couple of you passing through AC yesterday. I'll be back this Sunday the 20th at Bally's Wild West Fan Cave -That is why we have a late update. Computer down! - Carolina. I thought we were going to win outright. I think we should have. Real tough losing that one. Colts. Hey. I had the Jags all wrong. I thought their were a team in chaos. Not so. Bad play by me. The Browns. Looking back maybe I should have stayed a way. First year HC with a team historically know for being terrible. I like the HC when he was OC in Minny. That is why I am holding Coach of Year tickets and thought it would translate to Baker Comeback POY tickets. We did hit other games to make it just a loser in juice. But not the start I wanted -

So - the GIANTS. At 3/3.5 I could make a case for Pitt. 5.5/6 - I am taking the added value here. Big Ben hasn't played ball in over a year basically. We saw some sloppy play yesterday. The guy is no spring chicken. Giants offense can score. At least they should with the guys they have. This is more fading of Big Ben and getting nearly double the points in one week after a number sat for months. 4* Money Maker NY GIANTS

4* Total Money OVER Cowboys/ Rams

Taking ARIZONA. I think Murray was pretty good last year. Not too shabby for a rookie. Arizona plays San Fran tough. No way around. Go look at the scores for the last 5 years. 10 pretty good games. I like Drake in the backfield. You have HOF Larry Fitzgerald still lead the young QB. And some other guy they grabbed named Hopkins is a pretty good receiver in his own right. Again, he gets even better with a HOFer to learn from and gives the young QB more help. Plus. I can't leave out Kirk. San Fran comes in off a Super Bowl loss. Hi, we cashed KC and it was great in the Fan Cave at Bally's AC. But, they are now the hunted. Let's see how they respond and in the meantime, I'll grab the points. 4* Money Maker ARIZONA CARDINALS 

Taking the CHARGERS. So Rivers is in Indy. I like Tyrod. Guy is 24-21-1 as a starter. And that is 3 full season as the Bills starter. He is 31, but I think people forget that for 4 years, he collected dust in Baltimore. Plenty of weapons. Hunter, Ekler, Allan, Williams. Got a rookie taking the field under center with zero pre-season reps. Yeah, good luck with that. Don't care how great in college he was. Bosa and Ingram will welcome him with open arms to the NFL. 4* Money Maker LA CHARGERS 

4* Money Maker TORONTO BLUE JAYS

Taking the PACKERS. I do like Minny. Was high on them last year. But, we do have an Under 9 Future ticket in hand this season. So, no fans. That for me is big. This is a place where Minny is 24-9 SU and 21-9-3 ATS (70%)! - No easy task I get it. But no fans. We must take that into consideration when getting points from road teams this season. Also - GB. I get everyone thinks they are down. But Rodgers is gonna Rodgers. 4-2 last 6 vs Vikes, and, they swept Minny last season. New OC, New DC, No Diggs for Minny. Dog outright in sight. 4* Money Maker GREEN BAY PACKERS

4* Total Money OVER Bears/ Lions 

Taking the BROWNS. I know everyone will be on Baltimore. Ready to redeem themselves. Well. I am a Cleveland believer. I have Comeback POY on Baker. I have Coach of Year on Stefanski. Look. 4 HCs in 3 years. How do you even fault Baker? This year though- new pieces on the OL. Gets a solid TE in Hooper - add him to Chubb and Hunt in the backfield. Landry and that fecal freak ODB. Back to the TE and OL. So they drafted a TE and still have 1st rounder Njoku and 2nd year guy Carlson. Stefanski had Case Keenum toss 21 TDs. He improved the Minny offense. I suspect the run game and short passing attack will play heavy here. I can't say anything bad about Baltimore except I think this is a lot of points to be laying out of the gate to a talented team. 4* Money Maker CLEVELAND BROWNS  

Taking the CAROLINA PANTHERS. Almost wrote Hurricanes! - Haa.. So we have the Raiders as road faves. Come on. I know Carolina is starting over. But please. What have the Raiders done to show they should be favored on the East coast? I think its safe to say we have the best player on the field in CMC out of the backfield. Teddy isn't a terrible QB when healthy. And DJ Moore had over 1100 yards receiving last year. 4* Money Maker CAROLINA PANTHERS 

Taking the FALCONS. Have these guys to win the South and a MVP ticket on Matty Ice. I think the offense will be as good as any in the league. Could have the best WR duo - Gurley, I know, I bad mouthed this guy all last year. But I think we see a rotation out of RB and he can contribute in limited carries. This is a passing team. Ah Seattle. Another team I have a future ticket on. Man. Wilson is a good QB. Guy is terrific. But I think the defense is suspect - and against Jones and Ridley they could be over matched. I will also be on OVER 49. On a side not, I think Dan Quinn is on the hottest of hot seats. Lost the Super Bowl in year 2. Lost to Philly in playoffs next year. Back to back 7-9 season. Win or hit the road coach. 4* Money Maker ATLANTA FALCONS 

4* Total Money OVER Seattle/ Atlanta 

Taking the COLTS. I'm a believer. Have these guys to win the South and Over their win total. The talent is there. I like the coach. And across the field is absolute chaos. If you can find odds on who is going to have the worse record in the league, throw a little change on the Jags. I guess this is kind of a square play. Lord knows that I have been on Jax after that AFC Championship run which seems like decades ago. Let the rebuild commence. 4* Money Maker INDIANAPOLIS COLTS 

Taking the REDSKINS. This line on the way down. On a Thursday no-less. So, lots o' changes in Washington underway obviously. RBs out HC out Front Office out Name out - But I do like the Ron Rivera hiring. I think people forget that the defense here is pretty solid. It just got over-looked by how bad the offense was. Now they have a real coach and I think Haskins will be better. Eagles are always littered with injuries. I think the back 7 can be exploited by a smarter coach. Remember, last year a worse Redskins unit held a lead on these guys on the road and Philly need a miracle rally to pull out a 5pt win. 20-7 and 14-10 half-time leads in both games last year. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON REDSKINS
