Last Chance For Panthers

Thursday night  football returns to the NFL Network only and the Carolina Panthers host the Drew Brees lead New Orleans Saints.   If Panthers lose their playoff chances are cooked for this year.  Last week I was a brillant 7-8  reducing my record for the year to 78-41.  If you can't get half of the game right just trying to pick the winners of each game how in the world can you get any when a point spread is added to complicate your life.  I have never bet on games with point spread but I thought I would take this week's Las Vegas lines and see just how I can compare both ways.  There are only 13 games this week and the Baltimore - Pittsburgh game is a pickem so I will give you my picks both who I think is going to win and then by the spread so here we go.

New Orleans -2 at Carolina.  New Orleans can't beat anybody on the road Lost 7 in a row.  I'm picking the Panthers so I guess that means with the Saints a two point favorite I'll take Carolina on both picks.  27-24

San Diego +2 at Miami.  I hope the Chargers have their two cornerbacks who have been injured back after a ten day rest.  If they do Chargers D will be good.  Chargers  win outright 31-17

Jacksonville +11 at Cincinnati,  Cincy wins and they cover and win by more than 11  34-20

Tampa Bay +6.5 at Cleveland.  TB has taken everyone to the last second.  I'll take Cleveland to win the game and Tampa keeps it close.  27-23 Cleveland.

Washington +2.5 at Minnesota.  This shows you how Vegas feels about the Skins beating Dallas.  They are underdogs to the   Vikes who win outright   27-23

Philadelphia +2.5 at Houston   What ever happened to Chip Kelly was going to change the NFL. seems the NFL has figured out his offense. I think Houston wins 30-26

Jets +9 at Kansas City.  Take Kansas City in a blow out 34-13

Arizona+4 at Dallas.  You got to be kidding me that Dallas is the favorite.  What was Jerry Jones doing on the field when Romo went down telling coach to put him back in.  Here we go again Jerry thinks he knows football and Dallas loses.  I think Dallas might win this one but by a point 24-23.

Rams +9 at San Fransico.  Can't see the Rams winning this game much less keeping it close    SF 27- STL 17

Denver -3 at New England.  I think this will tell us about both teams this year.  Denver wins they probably make it to Super Bowl.  NE wins AFC is up for grabs.  Denver 38  Patriots 27

Oakland +9 at Seattle.  I think Oak can be pesky on the Seahawks, I'll take Hawks but Raiders cover.  24-17 Seahawks

Ravens even with Pittsburgh.  I don't think Pittsburgh can play that great two weeks in a row  Ravens 24-21

Indy -3 at Giants.  Indy can score points.  They can also give up points but this is Eli who will give at least seven to Indy..  Indy 37-Giants 24  

There is a Thursday night ACC game which could be a rather good one. Florida St at Louisville.  You know Louisville is going to throw the kitchen sink at the Noles.  Louisville didn't impress me beat N C State but this is close.  FSU 31 Louisville 27
