NFL Sharps Picks: Week 14

what was the Raiders/Chiefs line they used and NYJ/SD?

@Obi

Those consensus picks are the FIELD consensus, not the leaders' consensus.

Follow to link below to see that in last year's contest, not a single time the consensus picks managed to go 5-0. Moreoften it was 3-2 and 2-3 with a couple of 4-1's pushed in between, but those were just 2 times. Also the sharp's picks didn't pan out really well. Just to show how difficult it is to handicap the NFL in particular and sports in general.

Guess you'll have to do it yourself, instead of relying on the smartboys from Vegas.....sigh! :)

I read JETS & UNDER like a book. My write-up was pretty much the plot of the game haha. BIG MONEY!!!!

FINS@JETS MNF TONIGHT

I understand Fins +7 is generous considering the instability of Jets offense. Sanchez looks awful, Greene cant establish the run, they have had offensive line problems, Mason was just traded, Holmes is complaining he doesnt get the ball enough and they need to throw more deep balls. They are all pointing fingers, are unfocused, and their once promising last years team is on the verge of collapse.

That being said, how can you bet on the Fins? I noticed the winnless teams ATS trend is in favor of the Fins covering tonight but I want to ask, how? The Fins are 0-4 for a reason. And now they have Matt Moore as their starting QB. Clearly, he will struggle against the tough Jets defense who will be licking their chops against Moore. Thomas will find it difficult to establish the run against Rex Ryan's stout defense and blitz scheme. Bush has not been anything to talk about at all, unless he is in open field with no defenders around him, which wont happen against the desperate Jets. On top of all that, the Fins #1 playmaker on offense Marshall has started he will be ejected before halftime for fighting. How are they going to score?

I see the once decent, ball control, run game, tough defensive, desperate Jets possibly getting it done at home, where they have not lost yet, because they love the hype and attention. This should be a slow, clock management, defensive, run game with not many big plays. Both teams are out of whack and have been pathetic as of late.

I could see the JETS-7 & UNDER 42 tonight.
It seems like a long, drawn out, ugly game.
I dont buy the sharps are jumping on the Fins.
Judging by Walt's Sharps Page, most of them are on the Jets.
And the sharps record this week is crushing the public.

Good Luck. Let me know what you guys think. I think the Jets have to perform tonight or their season is over. I believe they get up early and rely on their defense to not allow the Fins to make bigs plays. I dont see how the Fins can make big plays, if any plays for that matter....

So Walt, what do you make of the sharps picking Dallas? I really liked Dallas a lot until I read your preview. They get all starters in that secondary back, and should also be healthy again on the offensive side. Romo is gonna torch that Pat secondary. But, of course he could opt to throw the game away late, but they could still cover.

The Giants are a easy cover today They will not come out flat and will play hard for the crowd after last week and win 23-17

@Walt

Your picks are looking good, should be a 4-1 week, minimum. Hopefully a 5-0 week.

Kinda confusing if I pick 4 teams differently from the Azurri.99 team, while they went 10-0 over their last 10 picks.....

10-3 over my last 13,
Gonna make for an interesting Sunday. Good luck everybody!

Thanks,

As if I don't have enough on my mind when it comes to picking a winner lol.

Seriously though, I like to know the opinions of other cappers, even if I do feel like it just makes it harder to make a decision.

the panthers roll into atlanta and pull off a shocker 27-26 (PANTHERS PLUS 4)
saints roll over bucs 41-20 (no minus 6)
dallas loses it late again, but covers 26-23 (dallas plus 7)
bears bounce back big 24-16(bears minus 3)
philly finally gets it done 27-21 (eagles minus 3)
THE UPSTART BENGALS MOVE TO 4 AND 2 (but dont cover winning 20-14)
who dey

Kick ass job, Matvei!
