NFL Week 12 Review
Three bets for me last week. Here’s how I got on.
DET + 6
DET 15 GB 27
LOSE
Yes the Lions let me down at home on Thanksgiving (not for the first time). Aaron Rodgers wasn’t his usual uber-crisp self (22-32) and GB only ran for 45 yards. But Matty Stafford threw three picks and the GB defence did just enough to keep this one outside the spread.
DEN + 7
DEN 16 SD 13
WIN
It’s always fun when your rag wins outright (especially when you’ve had a nibble on the “money-line” as well as the advertised handicap) and this was no exception. Tebow completed a Brees-like (for him) 9 passes and the most overrated player in the NFL Phil Rivers (10/1 for the MVP hahaha) could only move the ball 188 yards in 36 attempts. Chalk one up for the God Squad.
NYG + 7
NYG 24 NO 49
LOSE
I don’t really feel like talking about this one. The Giants got spanked, plain and simple. Money done.
