    What a crazy ending... Arizona is a fun team to watch. Bills are too, I'm a big fan of Diggs

    Houston vs. New England

    @Sign Language vs. @Grimace aka Andys Father and @Tom Brady

    can the Patriots keep moving in the right direction after last weeks huge win over Baltimore? will the Texans slow down Cam Newton's ground game? who wins this one? thoughts?

    Dallas vs. Minnesota

    @KnobodyKnows and @Enigma vs. @Kon TimmyT

    both teams having down years but the Vikings have been hot lately. will Dallas horrendous defense be able to stop Cook? can Dalton's return help inspire the Cowboys to play better football? who wins this one? thoughts?

    i think we'll win, but not by a large margin. despite dallas having a down year...they still have guys who can make plays. Dalton obviously has a lot of experience playing due to how long he was the starter in Cincy. Dalton is a good backup to have. i say Vikings win 27-17

    Vikes will probably win but honestly I expect them to lose at least 1 of these next 3 easy games cuz that’s what the Vikings do, crush hopes once fans start getting excited.

    They’re 4-5 now with 3 easy games coming all at home. I’m already hearing fans act as if they’re 7-5. I’m not falling for it, ready for the inevitable letdown..

    Hope I’m wrong.

    Great win against Baltimore. If they can continue that type of run game, I don’t see why they can’t take that Houston game.

    @TimmyT Screwston will win if Cam has a bad game. Aside from that I see NE getting the W.

    Both teams are terrible. The Cowboys defense has really improved over the last few weeks, to be honest, but they should absolutely lose this game. Of course, because they should, I wouldn't be shocked if they would win. Which would piss me off. I want an incredible g.d. draft pick so we can trade back for a king's ransom. Vikes win a very close one. They should win by 14+ though. I think Cowboys going back to Dalton after Gilbert performed so well against PIT is a mistake. But whatever lol

    Yeah I expect the game to be somewhat close. Dallas has been horrendous but the Pittsburgh game was actually pretty promising. That being said, I expect Minnesota to win.

    Very interested to see how Taysom Hill does for the Saints. Always enjoy watching him.

    i can't wait to see how he performs too. i'm surprised they didn't start winston. but i guess because they're paying taysom a lot more and he's more familiar with the system, they decided to go with taysom

    but we all know taysom is a gadget/trick play type of a player. it'll be interesting to see how he does playing all of the snaps

    any of you do any NFL betting? I've been doing 2-3 each week lately and been having some success..

    This week I got:

    -under 49 total points Vikings/Cowboys
    -Falcons over 23.5 points

    it's pretty fun and gets me even more invested in the games, also nice to make some money although I haven't been betting any huge amounts.

    I love parlays lol, they're fun as f---..I used to do crazy big ones too like 6-8 games, but now if I do a parlay I'm a little more careful/wimpy and just do like 2-3 games lol.

    but yeah the big ones are fun for sure, worth throwing down a few bux when you could win a lot.

    Yeah, I definitely think that Hill’s familiarity with the system definitely played a big role in the decision. Also, I kinda look at it like “well you aren’t sure what you’re going to get with Taysom at qb every snap, but you pretty much know who Jameis is......average at best.”

    I’m the same way...way more invested in the games

    gambling makes all sports more interested...parlays are tough but like you said... big $$$ if they come through

    I try to a couple point spread parlays or moneyline but can’t do more than 3/4 games lol tough to get a good combination and good payout

    got a push on Hail Mary from Arizona / Buffalo game lol welcome to harsh reality of gambling...had the bills +2

    @Boos how many times does Doug expect us to watch this same uninspired Eagles offense before he makes a change?
