The Vikings are a perfect 4-0 SU at home this season winning by an average of 11.0 ppg. Greg Schiano has done a very nice job so far in making Tampa Bay a more competitive team week in and week out.

10-18-12 Seattle Seahawks +7.5 v. San Francisco 49ers Top 6-13 Win 100 29 h 51 m Show
I usually don't get trapped by being short sighted when assessing a particular game. However, this instance is an exception to the rule. The Giants exposed many flaws in the 49ers offense last week and the Seahawks defense is more than capable of creating the same headaches for Alex Smith and company. Seattle is a perfect 6-0 SU&ATS in their last 6 games as an underdog of 3.0 or more winning by an average of 10.3 ppg. Can you say underdog value?

The Broncos are a perfect 6-0 SU&ATS in their last 6 games as a division away favorite or underdog of 7.5 or less winning by an average of 14.3 ppg. All of those contest with quarterbacks that are nowhere near the level of Peyton Manning. The Chargers are just 2-4 SU and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 division home games. The Broncos are much better than their 2-3 record may indicate as they've played a brutal schedule to this point. The books must agree when you look at the current line which is virtually an even game.

The Jets will also be without 2 of their best players for the rest of the season in Santonio Holmes and Darell Revis. Houston has looked unbeatable in their first 4 games of the season. The general public has responded exactly the way the books thought they would. When it looks this easy it rarely is.

Seattle is a perfect 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games as a home underdog of 2.0 or more including 6 of those 7 games outright. The notorious 12th man in Seattle is far from a myth as it's historically been one of the toughest of places to play for visitors even in the leanest of years for the Seahawks. Seattle is also a perfect 4-0 SU&ATS in their last 4 overall as an underdog of 4 or more with an average margin of victory being 14.7 ppg.

09-20-12 NY Giants +3 v. Carolina Panthers Top 36-7 Win 100 7 h 28 m Show
I am totally aware of the key players the Giants will be without this evening. Starting wide receiver Hakeem Nicks, starting running back Ahmad Bradshaw, starting offensive tackle David Diehl, and #3 receiver Dominick Hixon. However, we have seen this from the Giants before and the resiliency they've shown in recent years is 2nd to none. The so called experts out there that base their selections on reverse line movement and going against public money will tell you the Panthers are an absolute steal this evening. The books have adjusted this line from it's opener due to the Giants injuries and not because sharp money has gone the way of Carolina. You can't factor into the line the heart of a champion which is exactly what the Giants are and they will exhibit that tonight on a national stage.

There's a lot of hype surrounding this national telecast with most of the attention being paid to the Denver Broncos and the return of Peyton Manning. However, there's a quality football team they will be facing tonight who will be playing in their home opener. The Atlanta Falcons are a very profitable 7-0 SU&ATS in their last 7 non-division home games as a favorite or underdog of 3.5 or less. To say the Falcons have a home strong field is an understatement as they've gone 27-6 SU in their last 33 at the Georgia Dome.

Any non-division home favorite or underdog of 3.0 or less that's coming off a non-division game, they've won 12 or more of their last 32 games overall, and the total is 50.0 or more is 12-0 SU&ATS since 1981.

Dallas comes off a huge road win versus the Giants and consistency hasn't been their strongest attribute in recent years. With expectations high the Seahawks will be in urgent mode in their home opener desperately trying to avoid a 0-2 start.

Any home team coming off an away favorite SU loss versus an opponent coming off an away underdog SU win is 31-6 SU since 1980. Since we are getting points with the home team in this spot the SU number takes on added significance. Play on the Seattle Seahawks plus the number.

09-13-12 Chicago Bears v. Green Bay Packers -6 Top 10-23 Win 100 52 h 44 m Show
Going back to the NFL Playoffs the Packers have now lost 2 games in a row at Lambeau Field. If you consider that they won 19 of their last 20 home games prior to this temporary 2-game slide then we can assume the home side will be in a foul mood. The Packers are a dominating 7-0 SU & 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games versus the Bears as a favorite of 3.5 or more while winning by an average of 14.0 points per game. Green Bay is also a profitable 6-1 SU&ATS in their last 7 games as a division favorite of 6.5 or less.

Any Thursday NFL home favorite that's won 20 or more of their last 32 games is a sparkling 23-5-2 ATS and 28-2 SU since the start of the 1994 season. If they've won 24 or less of their last 32 home games while scoring 34 points or less in their previous game, and they're facing an opponent that's won 10 or more of their last 32 games the angle improves to a perfect 10-0 SU&ATS.

For starters we're talking about an away favorite who is 7-28 SU and 10-25 ATS in their last 35 road games. In addition since 2008 the Seahawks are 0-8 SU&ATS in their first 2 road games of the season losing by an average of 21.1 points per game. We also must not forget that although impressive in the preseason their starting quarterback Russell Wilson is a rookie 3rd round draft choice. Since the start of the 2007 season Arizona is 11-4SU&ATS as a home underdog of 2.0 or more.

Any home underdog or favorite of 2.5 or less in its opening game of the season who won 8 or more games in the previous season, and they've won 21 games or less in their last 32 at home is 10-0 SU&ATS since 1990. The home team has won those 10 games by an average of 9.8 points per game.
09-09-12 Carolina Panthers v. Tampa Bay Buccaneers UNDER 47 Top 10-16 Win 100 66 h 14 m Show
Tampa Bay knows heading into this contest they can't afford to get into a high scoring affair with anyone this season because chances are they don't have enough bullets in their gun. The Panthers have really focused during the offseason on improving on the defensive side of the ball and what better way to start the season than against an offense the figures to be challenged for the better part of the upcoming season. Both head coaches have made their marks by coaching defense and doing it well.

Any division home underdog of 4.0 or less in the opening game of the season that won 11 games or less the previous season, and they're facing an opponent that won 15 games or less in the previous season has seen 26 of those 29 games go under the total since the start of the 2003 season. If we tighten this up a bit more we find that if the total was 41.5 or more then all 14 of those games in that identical situation all went under the total in that same time span. Play on this game to go under the total.
09-09-12 San Francisco 49ers v. Green Bay Packers -5 Top 30-22 Loss -105 47 h 16 m Show
The Packers are 10-1 ATS in their last 11 regular season games as a home favorite, including a perfect 5-0 SU&ATS if they're a favorite of 10.0 or less winning by an average of 19.2 points in those 5 contests. The Packers will enter the season with a bad taste in their moths after putting together a stellar 15-1 regular season in 2011 then stumbling in their opening playoff game versus the Giants to shockingly see their season end prematurely. Now the Packers take the team in which what many are predicting will get to the Super Bowl out of the NFC in the San Francisco 49ers. Lambeau Field is a brutal place to play for visitors under ordinary circumstances and this situation qualifies for anything but.

Any home favorite of 3.5 or more that's playing in their season opener after winning 15 games or less in the previous year, versus an opponent that won 11 or more games in the previous season is 14-2 ATS since the start of the 1993 season. Play on the Green Bay Packers minus the number.
02-05-12 NY Giants +3 v. New England Patriots Top 21-17 Win 100 8 h 33 m Show
Beating the Patriots twice in one season during the Brady/Belichick era is a rare feat indeed, with only the 2005 Broncos, 2006 Colts and 2010 Jets accomplishing the task. There's very good reason to believe the Giants can join that exclusive club, however. While New York's Week 9 win in Foxborough shouldn't be used as the sole measuring stick when breaking down this rematch, the fact that it came without a pair of prime offensive players (WR-Hakeem Nicks and RB-Ahmad Bradshaw) is certainly noteworthy, as is the fact that the Patriots still had their best pass rusher in Andre Carter available as well as tight end Rob Gronkowski at full strength. And while it's true that New England's much-maligned defense has been performing at a higher level during this pivotal stage of the season, so has a Giants' crew that's been making life miserable for enemy quarterbacks in a strikingly similar way it successfully contained Brady and his playmakers the last time these teams met up in a Super Bowl. Considering the recent history of this series and the track record of both Manning and Brady in clutch situations, it wouldn't be the least bit surprising to see this game come down to who has the ball last. But when factoring in New York's better recent results in the turnover department a critical determinant to the outcome of the last meeting between these two the Giants appear are the more confident team and the winner in this contest. We will take the small number as an additional bonus. Play on the New York Giants plus the number as a 100* Top Play selection.
02-05-12 NY Giants v. New England Patriots UNDER 54 Top 21-17 Win 100 7 h 31 m Show
The Giants have seen 5 of their last 6 games go under the total. The lone over came in the playoff game at Green Bay in a 37-20 win surpassing the total of 54.0. However, it should be noted that both of Green Bay's touchdown drives in that contest were aided by questionable 3rd down defensive penalties on the Giants. Those two penalties occurred with the Packers floundering in their own territory and resulted in 1st downs after the Giants had apparent stops that would've forced punts on both occasions. In their three playoff wins leading up to the Super Bowl the Giants have allowed just 13.0 ppg. In addition the Giants have recorded 9 sacks and created 6 turnovers in their three playoff wins.

The much maligned Patriots defense ranked next to last in total defense in the NFL during the regular season. It should also be pointed out that New England was in the middle of the pack (15th) in scoring defense at 21.4 ppg. They've covered up a lot of weaknesses on that side of the ball with a bend but don't break mentality. The Patriots pass rush has created 8 sacks in their two playoff wins.

The last but not least factor in my strong opinion on the total is these two head coaches. Both Bill Belichek and Tom Coughlin are masters of when given ample time to prepare taking the opposing offenses strengths away while forcing them to operate out of their comfort zones. Play on this game to go under the total as a 50* Top Play selection.
01-22-12 NY Giants +3 v. San Francisco 49ers Top 20-17 Win 100 45 h 23 m Show
The Giants have the edge here in playoff experience both from a player and coaching standpoint. The core group from New York made a similar run back in 2008 with the exception with all 3 wins that earned them a trip to the Super Bowl in that playoff year came on the road. This year they opened with a home win over Atlanta before totally dismantling the 15-1 Green Bay Packers on the road.

The 49ers led the league in takeaways and turnover differential. Nothing was more evident of that than in their opening playoff 36-32 win over New Orleans forcing the Saints to turn the ball over 5 times. Against a veteran quarterback Eli Manning who's playing the best football of his career and two veteran running backs (Brandon Jacobs & Ahmad Bradshaw) they won't be as fortunate. In addition they won't have the luxury of facing a defense like the Saints that relies on elaborate blitz packages to put pressure on the quarterback, while in doing so leaving their defensive backs in single coverage all over the field. The Giants are adept at getting pressure from just rushing four and leaving seven in coverage. In doing so Alex Smith isn't going to be afforded some of those ideal matchups he had last week and will be nowhere near as effective.

Since 1984 any playoff team that's coming off a home underdog SU win is 0-13 SU.

Any playoff favorite or underdog of 4.0 or less that's coming off an away underdog SU win is 8-0 SU&ATS since 1990. The Average margin of victory in those 8 games was 15.3 ppg. Play on the New York Giants as a 50* Top Play selection.
01-22-12 NY Giants v. San Francisco 49ers UNDER 42.5 Top 20-17 Win 100 25 h 14 m Show
The Giants' pass rush has come alive during this current four-game win streak with 17 sacks, including four of Aaron Rodgers last Sunday. The emergence of second-year Pro Bowler Jason Pierre-Paul, return of Osi Umenyiora for the Dallas game and the improved health of Justin Tuck have boosted one of the league's most fearsome units. unlike New Orleans the Giants have been able to get to the quarterback by just rushing four and keeping seven in coverage. San Francisco quarterback Alex Smith isn't going to find those favorable man on man situations that he encountered a week ago.

The 49ers, meanwhile, had the league's top rushing defense in allowing 77.3 yards per game as well as a pass rush led by rookie Aldon Smith's 14.0 sacks. San Francisco earned a reputation for delivering bone-crushing hits while tying for the league lead in creating 38 takeaways. San Francisco was also #4 in total defense and #2 in scoring defense in the NFL during the regular season.

Since 1983 any road team coming off an straight up win by 14 points or more as an underdog, versus an opponent coming off a home straight up win, and the total is between 35.5-42.0 has seen 24 of those 29 (82.8%) games go under the total. Play on this game to go under the total as a 100* Top Play selection.
01-22-12 Baltimore Ravens +9 v. New England Patriots Top 20-23 Win 100 42 h 55 m Show
Hidden in the fact that the Patriots are such an explosive offensive team is the fact that they were rated next to last in the NFL for total defense during the regular season allowing 411.1 yards per game. The high powered Patriots offense will also be facing a formidable Baltimore defense with plenty of veteran playoff experience.

Baltimore's offense looked less than impressive in last week's home playoff 20-13 win over Houston. We can't lose site of the fact that was a Houston defense that was #2 in the NFL in total defense allowing just 285.7 yards per game. Joe Flacco won't be mistaken as a top five quarterback in the NFL but he's a much more dangerous passer than the Patriots faced last week in Tim Tebow. In addition the Ravens are much better at the skilled positions on offense than the Broncos led by all-pro running back Ray Rice (1364 yards rushing/12 TD'S). Rice is also an adept pass catcher with 76 receptions for 704 yards and an additional 3 touchdowns on the season. This game has all the earmarks of a game that goes down to the wire and could go either way which gives the underdog plenty of value in this spot.

Any non-division playoff favorite or underdog of 9.0 or less that has a winning percentage of less than .888, they are coming off a playoff non-division home favorite ATS win in which they scored 40 points or more, versus an opponent that scored 30 points or less in their previous game is 0-10 SU&ATS since 1980. The average margin of loss in those 10 games was 14.7 points per game. Play on the Baltimore Ravens plus the points as a 50* Top Play selection.
01-15-12 Houston Texans v. Baltimore Ravens -7.5 Top 13-20 Loss -100 14 h 35 m Show
The deciding factors in this game will be experience and home field. The Ravens excel playing in Baltimore and already own a home win over the Texans. On top of that, key members like Joe Flacco, Ray Rice and Ed Reed are all playoff-tested, while Ray Lewis is a former Super Bowl MVP. On the other side of the ball the major concern for the Texans will be the play of rookie quarterback Tyler Yates. He's more of a game manager than someone who can create plays. I look for Baltimore to get the lead make the Texans one dimensional and things to get ugly by early in the 2nd half. Play on Baltimore as a 50* Top Play selection.
01-14-12 New Orleans Saints v. San Francisco 49ers +4 Top 32-36 Win 100 25 h 39 m Show
San Francisco was terrific at home this season going 7-1 with their only loss coming in overtime to Dallas in week 2 of the season. Since that loss the Niners have reeled off 6 straight home wins to close the regular season with an average point differential of +20.1 in those 6 contests. In addition the San Francisco defense allowed just 43 total points (7.1 ppg.) over those last 6 home games.

If New Orleans has shown a sign of weakness this season it's been on the road where all 3 of their losses occurred. Two of those three losses came to the likes of St. Louis and Tampa Bay who were a combined 6-26 this season. They were nowhere near as dominant in their road wins as they were at home as well. They won at Carolina by 3, at Atlanta by 3 in overtime, and at Tennessee by 5. If you take away their opening road game of the season at Green Bay their remaining 7 road games were versus teams that were a combined 38-74.

Any playoff home underdog with a winning percentage of .750 or better versus an opponents with a winning percentage of less than .823 is 7-0 SU&ATS since 1980. The home underdog won all 7 of those games by an average of 15.0 points per game. Play on San Francisco plus the points as a 50* Top Play selection.
01-08-12 Atlanta Falcons v. NY Giants UNDER 48 Top 2-24 Win 100 12 h 39 m Show
This line opened at 49.0 and in spite of over 80% of general public money going on the over the number has come down to 47.5. This is a true indicator that a lot of sharp money including mine has gone on the under. Both of these offensives are very good but neither is as explosive as what we saw last night in the Lions and Saints contest. Contrarily both of these defenses are superior to the two stop units we saw play last night as well. Atlanta will lean heavily on their potent running game to keep the Giants talented front four off balance and not allowing them to pin their ears back and tee off on Matt Ryan. Tom Coughlin is an experienced playoff coach and knows you don't get deep into the playoffs by being one-dimensional on offense like his team has been for most of the season with their potent passing attack. I look for the Giants running backs Ahmad Bradshaw and Brandon Jacobs to play a key role in this game. Play on this game to go under the total as a 50* Top Play selection.

This is a rematch of a Week 14 game in Cincinnati, when the Texans scored a go-ahead touchdown with two seconds left for a 20-19 win. Houston lost three fumbles in that game but outgained the Bengals 412-285. The Texans defense matches up well with the Bengals offense, which relies heavily on big plays to receivers A.J. Green and Jerome Simpson. The Houston secondary, led by CB Johnathan Joseph, is one of the NFL

These teams played a wild one in Week 14, with the Giants scoring two touchdowns in the final 3:14 to win 37-34. Tony Romo is expected to play after missing most of the previous game with a bruised throwing hand. He may have to perform in adverse elements which is something he hasn't done very well throughout his career.

With both teams still having something to play for and the rivalry that exists between these two franchises, motivation isn't going to an issue here. That means it's going to come down to who executes the best, and the Chiefs seem to hold an advantage based on recent results. Kansas City's defense has been mostly terrific over the past four weeks, and Orton brought a much-needed spark and stability to an offense that was sorely lacking in those aspects. Oakland, meanwhile, continues to cripple itself with mistakes in all sorts of forms, whether it's turning the ball over in bunches, defensive breakdowns or a troubling plethora of penalties. The Chiefs are the more sounder of these two participants, and that grasp of fundamentals could wind up being the difference. Play on the Kansas City Chiefs as a 50* Top Play selection.

12-24-11 Tampa Bay Buccaneers v. Carolina Panthers -7.5 Top 16-48 Win 100 16 h 14 m Show
Tampa Bay has lost eight in a row SU, going 1-7 ATS during that stretch. And three weeks ago at home against the Panthers, the Buccaneers allowed 163 rushing yards and 38 points. Tampa Bay started backup QB Josh Johnson in that game and generated only 285 yards of offense against a Panthers team that stacked the box to stop the run. The presence of QB Josh Freeman should help open things up for the running game this time around, but it won't be enough to cover against a Carolina team that
12-22-11 Houston Texans v. Indianapolis Colts +6.5 Top 16-19 Win 100 27 h 15 m Show
While it's true that the Colts haven't been very competitive when going up against an upper-echelon opponent this season, there's reason to believe the front-runners for next year's No. 1 overall draft pick can give the injury- plagued Texans a run for their money. Houston's offense has hardly been a juggernaut in Yates' three starts, with the team having averaged less than 17 points during the 24-year-old's time at the controls, and Indianapolis has been respectable on the defensive end since firing coordinator Larry Coyer in late November and replacing him with linebackers coach Mike Murphy. That trend will continue for another week with the Texans still in the process of getting the offense in sync and the difference-making Johnson once again out of commission.

Any home underdog with a less than .500 winning percentage that's playing in Game 9 of the season or beyond, versus an opponent that's covered 6 or 7 of their last 8 games, and they have a winning percentage of between .600-.750 is 34-11 ATS (75.6%) since 1983. Play on the Indianapolis Colts plus the points as a 25* Top Play selection.

12-18-11 Baltimore Ravens -1.5 v. San Diego Chargers Top 14-34 Loss -125 47 h 25 m Show
The Ravens carry a four-game win streak into San Diego to square off with the surging Chargers on Sunday night. San Diego is coming off wins over Jacksonville and Buffalo by a combined 75-24 score. But the Chargers are just 1-6 SU and ATS against teams that have winning records, and that lone win was against the Broncos when Kyle Orton was still their starter. Baltimore is the best opponent the Bolts have played in a while, especially defensively, as the Ravens rank third in the NFL in both scoring defense (15.5 PPG) and total defense (278 YPG). Play on Baltimore minus the points as a 25* Top Play selection.
12-18-11 NY Jets v. Philadelphia Eagles -2.5 Top 19-45 Win 100 72 h 8 m Show
Lets not get carried away with the Jets 3-game winning streak. The three wins have come versus 3 teams that have been in a 2nd half of the season tailspin in Buffalo, Washington, and Kansas City. Philadelphia in spite of their struggles still possesses game breakers on the offensive side of the ball at all the skill positions. The Eagles defense is 2nd only to Baltimore with 42 sacks on the season. Look for that to be a key factor versus the Jets erratic quarterback Mark Sanchez who seems to make head scratching throws at times when under pressure. This is a chance for the Eagles to some amends for an otherwise very disappointing season. What better way than to beat a team vying for a playoff spot. The Jets are very lucky to even be 8-5 at this point of the season. The luck runs out here. Play on Philadelphia minus the points as a 50* Top Play selection.

12-15-11 Jacksonville Jaguars v. Atlanta Falcons UNDER 42.5 Top 14-41 Loss -103 44 h 59 m Show
Jacksonville has gone under the total in all 6 road games this season. The average total score in those 6 games is an incredibly low 28.9 PPG. That includes the Jaguars averaging just 11.2 PPG in those 6 contests. As bad as the Jaguars have been this season they are still are #4 in total defense, #7 in scoring defense, and #4 in passing defense in the NFL. The flip side of the coin is that their offense is last in total offense, last in passing offense, and #28 in scoring offense in the league. The one thing the Jaguars do well offensively is run the ball which is much do in part to Maurice Jones-Drew. However they will be facing an Atlanta defense that's #5 in the NFL versus the run.

The Falcons have gone under the total in their last 5 home games this season. As a matter of fact last week's 31-23 win over Carolina broke a string of 8 consecutive games going under the total for Atlanta. Mike Smith has seen 12 of 15 non-conference games go under the total as head coach of the Falcons with an average total score of 36.5 PPG.

Any road team in Game 9 of the season or beyond, that's averaging 150 yards or less passing per game, and allows between 230-265 yards passing per game has gone under the total 23 of 28 (83.3%) games since 1983. Play on this game to go under the total as a 50* Top Play selection.
12-12-11 St Louis Rams v. Seattle Seahawks -10 Top 13-30 Win 100 9 h 59 m Show
The decimated Rams would have been hard-pressed to come away with a victory in a venue in which they've experienced little success over the years even if Bradford managed to suit up, and there's practically no chance of that considering the deplorable state of the team's offensive line. Shutting down the league's lowest-scoring team should be no sweat for a Seattle defense that's been performing well in recent weeks with Brandstater at the controls, and Lynch stands a good chance of adding to his string of dominant games against a porous St. Louis stop unit. The Seahawks won't need to get fancy to keep their playoff dreams still plausible with another win; a workmanlike effort would do just fine.

Any Monday night favorite of pick'em that's facing an opponent that lost 5 of 6 of their last 7 games is 41-14 ATS since 1983. Play on Seattle minus the points as a 50* Top Play.
12-11-11 Buffalo Bills v. San Diego Chargers OVER 47.5 Top 10-37 Loss -110 71 h 60 m Show
Both of these team's major weaknesses are on the defensive side of the ball. Neither stop unit has had success at stop the opposition's running attacks. This eventually leads to explosive plays in the passing game. San Diego is finally 100% healthy with their skill positions on the offensive side of the ball and it showed last Monday night as they hung 38 points on the Jaguars. Philip Rivers has had a somewhat erratic year but versus a porous Buffalo defense he will have a field day. Ryan Fitzpatrick has fizzled a bit in the 2nd half of the season but not all is totally on him. The Bills are still capable of putting up points and moving the ball especially on this Chargers defense.

Any team where the total is between 42.5 and 49 points (BUFFALO), with a poor rushing defense, allowing 4.5 or more rushing yards per carry, after gaining 99 or less rushing yards in their past 2 games has gone over the total in 38 of 51 games (74.5%) since 2006. Play on this game to go over the total as a 50* Top Play selection.

12-08-11 Cleveland Browns v. Pittsburgh Steelers OVER 38.5 Top 3-14 Loss -107 9 h 33 m Show
Everything points to this game being a low scoring affair. lets face it you have one of the worst offenses statistically in the NFL with the Cleveland Browns. The Browns also feature one of the best pass defenses statistically in the NFL. The latter may be the most misleading statistic of them all considering Cleveland also is statistically one of the worst in the NFL at stopping the run. Pittsburgh has traditionally over the last 10 seasons been a very profitable play when playing over the total when they are installed as a home favorite. If it looks to easy it normally isn't.

Any home team playing in Game 9 of the season or beyond that has covered 4 or 5 of their last 6 games, and they have a winning percentage of .750 or better has gone over the total in 38 of those 48 (82.6%) games since 2006. Play on this game to go over the total as a 25* Top Play selection.

Any road favorite or underdog of 3.0 or less playing in weeks 10 through 13 of the season, versus an opponent that has lost 8 or more of their last 10 games straight up is 25-3 ATS since 1983. Play on the San Diego Chargers minus the points as a 50* Top Play selection.

12-04-11 Carolina Panthers v. Tampa Bay Buccaneers OVER 47 Top 38-19 Win 100 22 h 12 m Show
Tampa Bay's defense has struggled mightily all season. The Bucs are 28th in pass defense, 29th in points allowed, 30th in run defense and 31st in yards surrendered. Carolina has totaled more than 100 yards rushing in nine straight games. That trend will continue in this contest in addition to opening up the passing game for quarterback Cam Newton and wide receiver Steve Smith. Regardless of their 3-8 record and last-place tag in the NFC South, the Panthers have a bright offense led by Newton's 3093 passing yards and 12 touchdowns. Newton also has 464 rushing yards and has scored 10 touchdowns himself via the ground. In spite of all the turnovers this season the Tampa offense has respectable offensive numbers. They are 12th in passing (238.5 ypg) and 15th in total offense (340.2 ypg). The Tampa Bay defense hasn't been exactly world beaters this season ranking next to last in scoring (27.7 PPG) and 24th in total defense (370.1 YPG). Both teams will be loose with no playoff implications on the line. This has all the ear marks of an entertaining high scoring affair. play on this game to go over the total as a 50* top Play selection.

11-24-11 Green Bay Packers v. Detroit Lions +7 Top 27-15 Loss -115 14 h 29 m Show
Detroit is hoping to end two long streaks on Thanksgiving Day when it hosts Green Bay. The Packers have won 16 straight games and the Lions are 0-7 SU&ATS on the last 7 November holidays. The good news for Detroit is that Green Bay allowed 455 yards of offense to Tampa Bay last week while the Lions hung 49 points on Carolina. Both of these teams have been great over the past two seasons (Green Bay is 20-10 ATS, Detroit is 18-6 ATS), and the Lions are a stellar 14-5 ATS against NFC teams over this same span. My professional experience has shown when two hot ATS teams like this collide the definite advantage goes to the underdog, and even more some if they are a home underdog.

11-17-11 NY Jets v. Denver Broncos OVER 40 Top 13-17 Loss -103 4 h 12 m Show
This total opened at 42.5 and has fallen down to 40.0. I understand the reputation the Jets carry on defense, I also understand the Broncos threw just 8 passes last week while completing just 2, and I also know the books can't possible be this far off when setting this number. Let us not forget the Broncos are #29 out of 32 NFL teams in scoring defense.

Denver has gone over the total in their last 9 home games when the total is 46.5 or less. The Jets have gone over the total is 16 of their last 19 on the road including the last 11 when the total is 42.5 or less. Play on over the total as a 25* Top Play selection.

The Seahawks continue to keep up their tradition of being anemic on the road and very respectable at home. That's one thing that Pete Carroll hasn't been able to shake from the franchise from in his 2nd year at the helm. However as a home underdog versus an up and coming team like the Bengals, with a rookie starting quarterback, and having to travel across the country is a very favorable situation for the Seahawks. In addition starting quarterback Tavarus Jackson returns to the lineup after being out with an injury. Although not highly regarded by many around the league Jackson is still a better option than the veteran Charlie Whitehurst. Take the Seattle Seahawks.
