Playing Catch-Up

Apparently I've been busy, because I haven't caught up on my picks results for a bit now. Lets see if I can catch up right now before I doze off.

Sunday, 1 Nov
DALLAS(-10)over seattle--Dallas won, 38-17.
minnesota(+3.5)over GREEN BAY. Minnesota won, 38-26. Here I took the money line, so that was Minn(+155).
new york giants(+3)over PHILADELPHIA. I blew my 3-0 streak on this matchup. Phily wins, 40-17.
NEW ORLEANS(-11)over atlanta.* New Orleans won, but failed to cover, 35-27. Roddy White and Roman Harper combined to win me my fantasy game, so I really didn't care, though I would have preferred to see Atlanta miss their late FG.
I'm pretty sure I had INDIANAPOLIS(-12.5)over san francisco. This line moved from 11.5 up to about 14. I remember thinking I had gotten a pretty good deal, considering where the line went. San Francsico kept it close, losing 18-14, so either way I lost.

Throw in my loss on Ole Miss, and I went 2-4 on the week, 2-3 on the pros.

*Monday Night

Sunday, 8 Nov
green bay(-10)over TAMPA BAY. After Tampa scored 21 at the end, I checked the score, and thought it was a push, 38-28. And it would be, except the wrong team won.
san diego(+5)over NYGIANTS. If I'd taken the Chargers at +3.5 you could consider this a reaction to last week. Rumor had it that Phillip Rivers has some sort of tell that telegraphs the Chargers' plays to the other team. San Diego also had to travel to the East coast. Still, when I saw the line move up to 5, I jumped on it...then it moved to 5.5 by gametime. The Giants don't deserve to be favored by five against anybody decent right now. Anyway, a last second pass to Vincent Jackson saved San Diego, 21-20. I got completely lucky here.
PHILADELPHIA(-3)over dallas. I may have to stay away from Phily the rest of the year. Dallas wins, 20-16.

I lost my tease of Oregon and Alabama, since the Ducks decided to get blown out by Stanford. On the other hand, I went ahead and did the quad tease I was taking about with 'Bama and LSU, and I won all 4 of those bets. The line had dropped to 7, so the teased lines were 'Bama(-1) and 'Bama(-13). The Over/Under had dropped from 40 to 38, so the teased over was 32, the teased under was 44. The final score of Alabama 24, LSU 15 fell in between the teased spreads and the teased over & under, so I won all four bets. This brings my record up to 6-4 on the weekend. Still, that's two losing weeks in a row on the pros.
