Even without Mayfield the browns are doing good with their replacement Case Keenum.
They are up 10 points early in the final quarter and with Beckham Jr. getting some great catches in the frame earlier, it looks like they will steal this one away from the Broncos.

[ralle14]

Broncos made it interesting in the second half but the Browns were able to hold the lead in the 4th quarter and close things out in the final possession.

For today, I got a five legged parlay on the Bucs, Packers, Rams, Pats, and Cardinals@2.10 confident on all these five to hit, earlier i'm leaning on the Ravens handicap but wasn't too confident on it. I feel like the Bengals have what it takes to keep the margin down to a field goal.

[ralle14]

Smooth win on the five team parlay was a bit worried on the Rams but they recovered nicely after the first quarter. On to the next, I have the Saints -3.5@1.80 I could see the Seahawks keeping this one close but the Saints just looked better as of now.

Also good thing I locked this one yesterday now that the closing line swung hard on the side of the Saints as the spread is sitting at -6.

Yeah, after looking at your picks I was wondering about the rams because when I checked the score they were down. But then saw today they won by 3 so your betslip was a good one. Still rolling along with those wins on NFL parlays. Nice one!

I had the saints today with the over 41 points but it seems everytime I bet on them they always end up losing.
It is only the 1st half but they only had a field goal and looking horrible.
Will watch until the 3rd qtr to see if they come alive late in the game.

[rdbase]

Seahawks kept it close as ralle14 had predicted but way too close as the saints only won by a field goal.
Their offense was very poor and it was a flip flop for Kamara having over 100+ yards receiving and only around 45 yards rushing. He usually has a great running game and receives a couple of times, so anyways my betbuilder lost again due to that reverse in offense by him.

Hey. Thanks for the heads up, put in all my picks on new Sportsbet prediction contests thanks to the alert heh. So my outrights are looking poor except Packers, who play tonight (or morning my time tomorrow) so I guess I'll be rooting for them the rest of the way.

Dolphins especially looking dire with odds above 100/1 now. All the rest of the picks I made are on far higher odds than when I picked them. Wonder how much money people make from idiots like me picking almost randomly ha ha.

My picks for my record: Packers - Seahawks - Steelers - Dolphins - Patriots

[ralle14]

I've pulled the trigger on Cardinals -5.5, earlier I just want to take the moneyline since I got burned by the Saints on my last bet. I know the Packers are missing some key players but for some reason, I think this will be a back and forth scoring game. We'll see though, I don't know if it's just me but i'm not too convinced with the Packers recently I feel like they're somewhat overrated at their current state.

Edit : Another loss, Packers D putting in some work and Rodgers making every possession count. Both teams exchanging touchdowns in the second half but the Cards D can't get any stop.

^^
Last play of the game came down to it and I don't know how they didn't score on that drive.
The receiver wasn't even looking in the direction of the throw to him and it got intercepted in the end zone.
That is some very tough luck for the Cardinals.

[rdbase]

Didn't know about this til late last night. I watched this game and saw the reaction when Tom Brady's receiver realized he gave the ball to a random fan in the stands then had that whoops moment.
As everybody who follows the NFL heard about this earlier in the week inregards to Tom Brady's 600 TD ball and how he was trying to get it back from the fan who was gifted it during the game.
He went over to offer a signed jersey instead. That ball is worth more than six figures easy a couple of years down the road (remind you of a certain thing we all value here on the forum? ) so Tom decided why not give him an entire BTC instead.
Since he is now a media influencer doing prime time commercials for FTX.

Still not bad for the Bucs fan, even though the ball is worth more who would've thought you'd get a reward worth $100k for receiving the touchdown ball.

For the SNF later today i'm taking the Vikings -3.5, the Cowboys tend to give up a lot of points and with Dak Prescott being questionable I don't know how their offense will keep up.

Also, what a win from the Jets, I didn't have any bet on the game but there's a lot in our pool who took the Bengals, and nearly half of the pool got wiped out. lol

[ralle14]

Vikings got a decent start at the half but the Cowboys manage to bounce back in the second half to secure the win. These backup QBs are killing it, first the Jets and now the Cowboys.

Going with the Chiefs -10.5@1.91, I know the Chiefs aren't in a good position recently but I don't want to overthink it too much. I'm also thinking of taking the over as this game could potentially end with a 40-20 scoreline.

Can't forget about the Saints are using their backup QB since their regular starter Winston had been confirmed to be out for the rest of the season.
His leg didn't look right when he got tackled. Looked like it was made out of plastic the way gumby legs bend.
Cooper Rush for the Cowboys was really good storyline for him. His parents were in the stands to cheer him on as I heard they have been to every single game he had played in since he was a child. It was kind of funny watching the last touchdown to seal the win for them.
Cooper passes to Cooper for the winning TD.
Yesterday's matchup could of ended up the exact same way as all those three matches with their backup QB did for Mahomes.

Waited a bit on the live lines to go down and took Colts over 26.5 as I honestly don't like going for the double digit spread on the Colts after that upset win from the Jets.

In the last three matches the Colts are scoring at least 30 points so getting at least four TDs against the Jets shouldn't be that hard.

Edit : Winner, Colts with 28 points in the first half.

Was a good call on your part ralle14. Congrats once again to you!
Took over 45.5 pts for the entire match and was well surprise the way they were just flying thru the end zone in the first half and with the Jets QB getting taken out early with a hand injury it was surely an easy win for the boys in blue for this one.

The weekend looks like another tough schedule for all teams involved.

The weekend looks like another tough schedule for all teams involved.

I agree the scheduled matches this weekend seem tough, Chiefs vs Packers, Panthers vs Pats, Bengals vs Browns, etc and combining it with the returning players just feels like a trap.

Anyway, i'll still go for a two team multi between the Ravens and Cowboys boosted @1.69, i'm also thinking of adding the Dolphins in the mix but the Texans are getting Tyrod back so I skipped it.

Edit : Things are looking brutal for both teams after the first half Broncos leading 16-0 and Vikings leading 14-3. 

[ralle14]

I have to say this week was one of the worst betting days for the NFL as nearly half of the underdogs almost won and more than half covered the spread.

Taking the o16.5 points on the Bears super boosted @2.08 since I can't push the handicap to +9.5, two touchdowns and a field goal should be doable for the Bears as the Steelers have been dropping more points at home.

This screencap should say it all for the weekend:

Absolutely disastrous if you bet on any of the matches over the weekend.
Just with that Jacksonville score line of 9-6 with them winning vs the Bills was enough to call it quits.
Your prediction on the Chicago game looks like a winner.

[nfl nerd]

Absolutely disastrous if you bet on any of the matches over the weekend.

wut?
Hardly a disaster if you bet on the dogs.  Maybe for you betting the favs.
