A not-so-stellar 1-2 week, but I'll take it, considering how the KC-Buffalo game could have turned out. The Raiders hung in there for a bit, but have the bad mark of being the first double digit divisional dog to lose ATS. The Panthers - Eagles tilt was busted from the beginning; turning the ball over that many times on the wrong side of the field is a killer for the under.
Speaking of the Eagles, how about that Mark Sanchez? It will be interesting to see if he can continue to play well down the stretch. If so, I'll be interested to hear how the talking heads spin it-- Sanchez having NFL-level talent for real, or just a beneficiary of the system.
I almost took the Saints last week at home as short chalk against a previously reeling SF team; glad I didn't. Though the Saints should have covered (that call on the GW TD at the end of the 4th was pretty sketchy), they didn't. Dodged a bullet there. The Saints are still 4-5 and still basically in control of the worst division in football.
The Jets were surprise winners over a Steelers team that has looked like a real contender the past few weeks. Such is the NFL; once teams start believing the hype, they lay an egg. I really didn't see this coming here, as Mike Tomlin's teams are usually pretty mentally tough when it comes to let down games. Vegas cashed some nice money on this, I think.
Chicago is playing such terrible football right now, but this is a team to watch. They could be deadly ATS with all those weapons, and there might be a spot at some point in the coming weeks to back them. Or, they could just continue to be hardcore terrible.
NFL 2014 Week 10: 1-2
