I figure I'd use you G since you're the only other person posting picks! Hope you don't mind!
I'm going with the Packers -3 at the half and -5 for the game. Yeah, yeah I know, some places you can get the Pack at -4.5, but since my book only charges 5% vig, why complain? I'm feeling the Pack coming out STRONG after losing to my Niners on Sunday. They made quite a few stupid plays, and frankly, even as a Niner fan, got jobbed on a number of calls. I think they come up for this game and take their frustrations out on the Bears. 14-10 Packers first half, final score 27-17. What say you?
Still looking at the Rutgers v S. Florida game, not sure as to if I'm playing it or not. That line took a huge dive from USF -10 to the current -7.5. It won't drop any further, 7 is the magic number, but the betting has been fairly even, maybe more on Rutgers, however a 2.5 point swing is pretty large. Books might be asking for more USF money with that line... people can easily buy it down to -7. USF has a pretty good run D this year, and that is Rutger's strength on offense. The Rutger run D is also good, but USF has a better air game. Tough call... any leans?

Ah no problem at all
Tough call on both games tonight
Would not be shocked at all if the Bears won outright tonight. Short turnaround week for GB and possiby no Jennings might hurt them.
As for the college game. No clue. Could see SFLA run away and hide from Rutgers, or it be a close game start to finish. No lean either way on this one for me

I lean USF because of their passing offense, but... man who the hell knows! I'm sticking with my GB picks, I have a good feeling about them tonight. The Bears could very well come in and take it, they have some big physical receivers, and GB dbs don't do too well against those types. Its too late now though, I'm on the Pack!

I LOVE the Indy pick... if only I could get it at +2, but I'll take the +1.5 offered. The KC pick I like, and will likely play that as well, however the Ravens one... that's a no go for me. IMO, that's the sketchiest line on the board! That being said, the Pats/Titans line last week was shady, and look how that turned out haha! But I try to avoid playing those games like the plague. I tend to overbet those juicy lines and end up as part of the general bloodbath!

He seems to get worse and worse each start and I think the Ravens D will be all over him as long as they take away the deep ball which is what Philly seems to live & die with

Lol yep - that was me. Stupid Raiders just couldn't get their kicker in to decent FG position. Ah well, there is always this week but I don't like my chances. "I'm going to see the horse doctor today. How the horse became a doctor, I'll never know." Dwight K. Schrute.
