I think you're gonna get rocked on all 3 of those picks. Miami's D isn't that good anymore and Tenn. isn't as good either.

tennessee will be destroyed by the colts, what the [censored] are you doing here? Didnt u see them last week?

also, betting against t. dungy and the colts is bad in general because they are very focused and unemotional and will deliver the goods. I wouldn't be suprised to see them go 16-0.

solid analysis, bet me they don't go 16-0?

I made a typo in my first post, as per the odds I listed above the first bet should read say risking <u>2.2u</u> and not 2.3u.

Typical public thinking.

I feel even better about my picks now that I find out what the squares think.

I would really like +4 and +7.5 on both of those games. It appears as if I'll have to wait until Sunday when the squares bet them up.

Tennessee -7 (or maybe 7.5) is not bad in my opinion. Both Colts/Titans games were close last year. Not a whole lot has changed in Indy but for whatever reason, last game and in their last 3 games last season their defense looked good. Tennessee was a solid team all last season after Young got the starting job. I didn't take this bet personally, but it's not bad. Colts looked great last week but they were also up against one of the worst 2ndaries in the league.

As far as Dallas in Miami goes, I don't see anything great going on in Miami. I said it in the other thread, but you guys are talking about a 6 win team last year with an offense barely capable of scoring anything up against the high scoring Cowboys. Even in the Cowboy losses last season, the opponents needed to put up 20+ to win. I just don't see Miami doing that. I took the line at -3.5 for Dallas.
