Bouncebacks - Week 2

Last week: 2-1

First week of bounceback plays, but I'm not sure about playing any of them, because of who is favored and where they're playing.

The plays would be:

Miami -1 (v NE)

Houston -2.5 (v TB)

NY Giants +6 (@ DAL)

I like both favorites, which is usually a bad sign.

A couple of teams ripe to be faded: Indy off their thrashing of the Fins, Pitt after outlasting the Jets.

I have already taken:

GB -3.5 (homer play, but I honestly think a great defensive performance against Detroit is better than a great defensive performance against the Giants)

DET -5 (took it yesterday before the Bears imploded. The line actually dropped to -3.5; it's -6 now)

The reason for the hesitance on Miami and Houston...home favorites in their situation are great in October, so-so in September. Although it's not a lot of chalk. Tampa has a second straight road game, and they should have lost in Atlanta. Texans looked pretty average in L.A., but had a shot to win late.

I like the thought process here.

Miami I would avoid because a) NE also lost and b) theres a good possibility that Miami could really be this dysfunctional and have no desire to compete

Houston I like a lot because they do have a great defense, I dont think Tampa is the same Tampa from last year, they should have lost in Atlanta, Houston should be much better offensively in this game. 

Detroit is just too many points for my liking. I think Chicago is a lot better than last night indicated. This could definitely be a field goal game

Good luck GT.  

Miami will be hot and humid!!! I think Miami is trash, but good spot for them..espically 2nd half.

im a bucs fan, but I’m on Houston TW.

Bears have so many weapons, just not a Williams fan. I like the OVER

Season: 3-1

Took Miami -1 (on Thursday; it's -2 now). Detroit is up to -6.5.

Gonna wait on the Texans...I suppose I'll take them without any hesitation if Det and Miami both lose. If they both win I'll for sure swerve on the Monday night game. NYG I just can't do, no matter what. It feels like setting money on fire.

I would have fired McDaniel with five minutes left in the game. I'd have sent state police out to rip the headset off him and escort him off the premises.

Another of my books has Houston -2, so I've taken it.

I'm not sure where this Russell Wilson was when I bet on them. I swerved today.
