Alright, I’m going to do an unconventional Monday post here. To be upfront about it, I’ve gotten absolutely torched in Week 3 so far. Including my Thursday Night plays my picks are 1-6 this week. I also took the Bucs and 49ers on my own and those both lost as well. Shoutout to the Lions for covering +6 and being my only win of the week so far. I’m on tilt big time right now. I feel like Tony Soprano when he wanted to put Carmella’s spec house money on the Jets and she wouldn’t let him. It all started with the Steelers forgetting how to play football in the second half on Thursday. Then we had the Raiders who are currently the worst team in the NFL record-wise lose by 2 when I had them at -2. The Bengals and the Jets refused to score in the second half and hit their over. The Seahawks and Falcons remembered how to play football and hit the over when I had the under. The Bucs couldn’t move the ball and the 49ers couldn’t win a game where Russell Wilson overthrew every receiver he threw a pass to. Then there’s the worst beat of the day and I’ll tell you why. The Chiefs looked terrible and didn’t cover my lock of the week and that’s not even the worst part. They were my survival pool pick in both my pools after I had to buy back in last week because the Bengals lost. Ooh and I forgot, the fucking Patriots lost and Mac Jones is hurt so I have to watch Brian Hoyer get folded at Lambeau next Sunday. So yeah, it’s been quite a week for me and how am I going to try and close the week strong you ask? I’m going to bet on motherfucking Daniel Jones and the Giants. Surely that can’t go wrong right?

Look I don’t have the energy for fancy analytics on this game. Simply put, it’s probably going to suck, but we’re all still going to watch it. I bet against Cooper Rush last week and I’m going to do it again. Both these defenses are competent so I don’t see a lot of points here (take the under) and I just can’t fathom how Cooper Rush does this to me again even if he’s playing a lesser opponent. The Giants have found a way the last two weeks and I think they can do it again without Dak under center on the other side. The bet and money percentages are right around 50% with a slight lean to the Giants as well. I’m hoping the Meadowlands is rocking for the G-Men tonight and we can close the week out with a win, but in all honesty fade me because I’m cold as can be right now. I guess let’s play some football?

The Plays: Giants -1 and Under 39
