4 TEAMS ENTER 2 TEAMS LEAVE, W.W.S.D. "WHAT WOULD SCHABES DO"!!!

    Here are my picks for the NFC and AFC championship games (how bout that for a arrogant title for the blog lol).


       NFC championship   Packers -3.5 over the Bears    over under 43

     Never has there been more hype for a football game in Chicago and Green bay than this one. these two rivals play twice a year but have not played in a playoff game since 1941.

      MY TAKE :  This game comes down to two words, Devin Hester. If he makes plays on punt returns and kick returns, he will either score or set up the Bears with a short field like he did against Seattle. If he doesn't the Packers are playing to good on both offense and defense (see Clay Mathews) for the Bears to beat them straight up, Butttttt I think Hester is the difference so I'll take the Bears (shocker) and the 3.5 and take the over...........................


        AFC championship   Steelers -3.5 over the Jets        over under 38.5

      MYTAKE :   The Jets are the love em or hate em team in the palyoffs this year and boy was I wrong on that game last week. This week is a different story. The Steelers are playoff tested (2 titles 2005, 2008) and With Ben Roethlisberger healthy, the Jets are going to have a hard time stopping him from making plays outside the pocket after the initial contact (he's the best in the business at extending the play) along with their defense (see Troy Palamalu) the Steelers finally send the Jets home. So I'll take the Steelers and give the 3.5 points over the Jets and take the over, 38.5 is way low dudes!!!.


Happy Betting

4 GREAT GAMES THIS WEEDKEND IN THE NFL, WHO YA GOT AND WHO'S GONNA COVER......

    What a great slate of NFL football we got this weekend. Two games each this sat and sun (ya baby ya) with Balt at Pitt sat 4:30pm, the fudge packers (sorry I mean Green Bay) at Atl 8:00 on sat, and on sun Seattle at da Bears 1:00pm then the most talked about game of the weekend, the NY (run our grills) jets at New England at 4:30 to finish off the weekend. Here's a look at each game with the spead, the over under and of course MY-TAKE!!!.

      Baltimore at Pittsburgh :  point spread Pitt -3.5 over Baltimore. over under 37.  
MY TAKE : The third meeting between bitter divisional rivals this year. Baltimore is a great road team because their defense led by Ray (I aint killed nobody) Lewis and Ed Reed make home crowds quite early, but Big Ben Roethlisburger is healthy (his nose still looks like s_ _t) plus their at home so I'll take Pittsburgh, lay the points and take the over (the defense will score points in this one).

      Green Bay at Atlanta : point spread Atl - 2.5 over Green Bay. over under 43
MY TAKE : The Packers are on a roll in all three phases of the game, special teams, offense (how good is Aaron Rodgers playing right now)  and defense. Atlanta with the best recond in the NFC should play well at home, but the ground game has lagged and Matt Ryan can't win it by himself, so take the Packers (can't beleive i'm saying this) and the 2.5 points and take the over (should be somewhat of a shootout).


       Seattle at chicago : point spread Chicago -10 over Seattle.  over under 41
MY TAKE : Stayyyyyy away from this game. If anything take Seattle and the 10 points. As you know I'm a huge Bears fan, but thats too big a number to cover. Jay Cutler is to hot and cold to predict this game, but I think he steps up and play well against the Seahawks and the Bears should be able to run the ball (Seattle is the worst team against the run in the NFL) so hopefully that will take pressure of Cutler. Go with the over in this one, the  Bears should score a lot points and Seattle offense is coming around..................


         NY Jets at New England : point spread New England - 8 over NY over under 44
MY TAKE : Will the Jets ever shut up!!!. Antonio Cromartie (aka toast) needs to just shut up and play after getting their ass kicked just weeks ago against these same Patriots. We all know Tom Brady is a stuck up pretty boy, but you don't want to piss him off (see Michael Jordan) when it comes down to a playoff game and their at home. The Jets are a banged up football team and their coach has a creepy foot fetish with his wife (at least make her wear high heeled boots, sorrry, that's my fetish!!!) so I'm Taking the Patriots to cover and the over gets crushed........................................ Enjoy the games everyone.
