Today's Line - Lessons Learned

Well folks I did it again. My two late bets went 1-1 and I diluted my overall record for the day. 8-4 is nothing to be ashamed of but I could have done much better if I had just let my early picks ride. Having said that I'm going to post my NFL and NBA picks now and then a bit later post my CBB picks. Time is short on the weekend for me...

Records have been updated so let's get to it.

NFL:

Bears (+1) @ Vikings: Bears need a win badly to stay relevant in the NFC North the Vikings are pretty much done. Even with the injuries to the Bears defense I think they contain AD and make Ponder beat them...which they won't.

Pats (-7) @ Houston: Pats are ridding high after their stunning win against Denver. Houston has folded on the season. Pats win going away.

Cards @ Eagles (-3): The NFC East is still up for grabs if the Eagles keep winning. This one will come down to the most efficient offense since neither team plays much defense. The Eagles have shown they can score in bunches, the Cards have had some success but won't be able to keep up against the Blur. This will be a shootout that the Eagles win by a TD.

Cards @ Eagles OVER (48): See above about it being a shootout.

Bengals @ Chargers OVER (48.5): Both teams score around 25 points a game and allow around 20. This one will be back and fourth with the over covering midway through the 4th.

NBA:

Nuggets (+1) @ Raptors: The Nuggets are on a roll with a 5 game win streak and playing efficient basketball. The Raptors have lost 2 straight and can't seam to get anything going on offense averaging 96 points a game to Denver's 104. Look for Denver to run and run as Toronto won't be able to keep up with Denver's style of play.

Warriors (-4) @ Kings: The Warriors lost a tough one at Oklahoma City on a last second 3. This tells me they are good as anyone on the West. The Kings not so much. I'll gladly give the 4 and take the splash brothers.

T-Wolves (+8.5) @ Thunder: Quite simply I don't think the Thunder will beat the T-wolves by more than 8.

Pelicans (+1) @ Knicks: The Knicks struggle with teams that have a big front court. Anthony Davis will have is way in the paint as New Orleans take another step to becoming the surprise team out of the West.
