Taking the RAMS. LA home after taking an ugly loss vs the Vikings. But make no mistake. Minny defense at home is 100 times tougher than a Saints unit, on the road to boot. Saints had to come all the back with some OT to score a win over the Redskins. Again, Washington defense a notch below who the Rams trot out. Finally. New Orleans outside, no turf. 4* Money Maker LA RAMS

Taking BUFFALO here. So. We had the Giants ML last week over KC. We bucked all the Andy Reid off bye trends. So what has changed? How are they a double digit favorite? These guys have stunk up the place since their fast start. Now, a little turmoil with the Bills. They bench Taylor. Backup tosses 5 INTs in a half. But we get Tyrod today. I think he will want to really stick it to his coach. He is looking for a payday after the season. KC defense not threatening at all in my eyes. 4* Money Maker BUFFALO BILLS

They seem to peaking. Jets were said to be an 0-16 team, though I was thinking they would win about 4-5 games. So here we are. As much blood Bowles has been getting out of this rock, the law of averages can, and will catch up to the Jets. They just aren't that talented. 4* Money Maker CAROLINA PANTHERS

Taking NOTRE DAME tonight. Now. Don't think there is any chance that ND gets back into the playoff picture. But 10-2 will get them a big bowl even if 9-3 with Irish pasted across their clothes probably does also. But I think the coach needs a win either way. They were pasted by Miami. I think they need to need to take care of Stanford by about 20. Stanford losses all on the road this year. But I didn't think this was a vintage Tree team to begin with anyway. Love should suit up at RB. At this time of year, everyone is banged up. That being said, I think the Irish win this one going away. 4* Money Maker NOTRE DAME

Taking OHIO STATE early today. So. Somehow, people in Columbus think that the Buckeyes can still get into the Playoffs. Not really sure how that happens. But rest assured OSU has the offense to cover this number vs Michigan. I know the Wolverines bring a defense every week. And taking a double digit home dog with the better defense is normally a recipe for success. But I can't back this Michigan team. The offense is just terrible. Last game on the road OSU was ripped 55-24 by Iowa. No way in God's green Earth does Meyer have these guys unfocused or prepared this afternoon. Especially against Harbaugh. Since that Iowa loss, 102-17 Buckeyes. Michigan might be within 10 at half. But I expect OSU to pull away and cover this fairly easily. 4* Money Maker OHIO STATE

We have cashed with them a few times. Dallas looking lost with no Zeke the last 2 weeks. I have never liked Garrett. You can go through my write ups over the years about how he is a terrible coach. But this team is still pretty talented. As I write this, no word if Lee is suiting up for us. He is a huge key to the Boys defense. But again. It is about perception. Is LAC as good as what we saw, and is Dallas as bad? I don't think so. Thanksgiving short week.

We know that LBST sometimes gets mauled and limps into Big West play with 3-11 records. So off a 29pt loss to West Va, and an 8pt loss at Oregon State, LBST players aren't in a doom and gloom mindset. But in this spot, not only do I like the points, but I might do some ML +575. Everyone knows Missouri just lost their star player for the entire year. It is one thing playing thinking he will be back. I thought that Porter was good enough to get the Tigers to the NCAA tournament. I mean, I think they are a bubble team without him. They lost by 18 to Utah, and then eked out a 67-62 win over Emporia State in a game that was tied 28 at the half. 4* Money Maker LONG BEACH STATE

Yeah, we have made some coin with them at times this season. 8-1 at home is huge and we cashed them once on the road. But I think having a back-up to the back-up in goal will eventually sink this team. It was a nice feel good start to the season, but there will be regression. People forge these guys were pegged to finish last in the Pacific. They are sitting 2nd right now.

At least when we look across the field, we see some offensive skill position players. Now. Getting Sark to get the offense going is an obvious problem. And to be honest, I think that Atlanta has a bit of a better defense even with the '12th Man' reigning down on Matt Ryan and company. And make no mistake. I think last year was the outlier in Ryan's career. I think he isn't a 38-7 TD/INT guy. But more to the averages he put up between 2010-15 where he was around 26-14 kind of passer. That being said. I think they win this one. 4* Money Maker ATLANTA FALCONS

Taking the EAGLES tonight. Ugh. Waited a bit instead of loading up early and we lose at least a point, maybe a point and half. Even with Elliot, I was leaning towards Philly. But after seeing the OL and problems last week, this is going to be a tough home game for the 'Boys. So. Birds with the week off. As I have said numerous times over the years, Garrett is a terrible coach. You see now, even with Dak, what Romo had to go through for all those years. Talent is great. Having guys around you is great. But if your defense doesn't help the cause, more often than not you will on the losing side of games. And, it hasn't happened much yet as Dak has wheels. But he will start throwing bad balls that will be picked. Lee is again banged up for Dallas. When that guy is healthy and playing, he totally lifts the entire defense. Eagles just look very good and out of their bye, we have to back the square play here. Thankfully, the Cowboys have a big public following, so instead of laying an even bigger number, we have a bit of an added edge. Philly by 10. 4* Money Maker PHILADELPHIA EAGLES

Taking the GIANTS here and going +360 on the ML. You can grab 10.5/ 11. I am looking for the bigger payday. Now. I think that NYG are absolute trash. What can you possibly say positive about them? What a performance at SF! I see reports a player sent a text saying we hate the coach. Watch. Then after the game, another one. Told you so. Geez. I am no fan of Ben McAdoo, or McAdoo-Doo as I like to call him. But the last time the nails were in the Giants coffin, I, along with probably a lot of other people were stabbed to death with their win at Denver. I'm not going lie. I get it. Andy Reid off byes (16-2 SU). Nearly unbeatable. Alex Smith, 1 INT on the year. I'm sure Andy Reid has no love lost for the Giants organization after being with the Eagles. So he will want to show no mercy. But again. I have to think. These guys are pros. This is NY. Do they really want to be an absolute joke on the season? I know Eli has the dumb look on his face, and McAdoo-doo is in over his head. But knocking off a pretty good KC team will at least make for a happy Thanksgiving dinner. I haven't read or heard a person NOT on the Chiefs. We will also be on the over just as a little hedge if NY has a complete no-show and we get another performance like the one they gave the fans vs the Rams. 4* Money Maker NY GIANTS

Tough to get in front of this hot New Orleans team no doubt. But , this is a decent number to be getting. And if things break right for us, forget the back door. We could be walking out the front door with a straight up W. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON REDSKINS

Taking the LIONS here. So, maybe this is a bit of a sucker line. Bears have been tough, especially at home. We had them in games here at home vs the Falcons, Steelers and Vikings. The offense is just so hard to get behind at times. Lions offense, though limited with the short passes, does move the ball. Defense improved. Look at these Lions losses. 30-26 vs Falcons, which, some say should have been a TD for Detroit. 27-24 loss to the Panthers. And a tough 20-15 loss to the Steelers. Saints lit them up in New Orleans. Can we say the Bears are on those kind of levels? 4* Money Maker DETROIT LIONS

Taking the VIKINGS. I do like this Rams team. We have cashed them a few times already. But in this spot, I have to go Minny. I think their coach is just better right now. That is not a knock by any means on the youngster on the LA sideline. But I think this defense will rattle the Goff this afternoon. Again. I am not knocking the Rams or their defense. They have an old dog in Phillips calling things that will trip up boy Case for sure. That being said, this should be a very good game. Rams 117-24 their last 3 games. But beating up on the Texans with Savage at QB and nary a defense to field and dropping a pitiful Arizona team 33-0 at home is nice for the fantasy fans. Let's not overlook Minny putting up a respectable 95 points their last 3 games, 2 on the road. So we can score a bit. As hot as the Rams have been, they are due for a market adjustment. I think it comes this afternoon. 5* Best Bet MINNESOTA VIKINGS

Taking VIRGINIA here. So this Miami team is still undefeated. Off a complete and utter domination of Notre Dame. I had faded the U against Va Tech and it bit me in the butt. I will do it again. Let us recap this roller coaster season so far. They have had 2 last second wins over Florida State and Georgia Tech. An obvious let down spot in a battle vs Syracuse, who, is surprisingly covering 5 in row as dogs before getting blasted by Wake. They really played down vs NC. Then they come out and smoke Va Tech and the Irish from jump street. They have no real look ahead with a trip to Pitt on deck. But lets be honest. They are near 20pt faves. Maybe they are a bit cocky with their freshly minted spot in the Playoff Bracket. Like I said. Off arguably their 2 best games. Short week coming up vs Pitt. They have an ACC Championship Game locked up. It really comes down them vs Clemson to see who gets a playoff spot. So I can see a flat spot this afternoon. 4* Money Maker VIRGINIA

Taking MEMPHIS here. Well, I don't like laying double digits with any team. But I think we still rate a nice edge. Memphis off their bye. Memphis has won the last 3 51-7, 63-0 and 48-10. I can see what you are thinking.. Oh revenge angle, huge. Now, the first 2 games, Memphis was favored by 20 and 22. Last year -3 on the road. Now 12. Look I do like the Mustangs. Nearly played them last week. But they are finishing up a tough run here. So back to back vs a team off their bye. While they faced Navy in a thrilling 43-40 last second loss. Down 34-11 and coming back to tie with 3 minutes left to lose as the clock hits 0. Tough one. That takes a bit out of you. A week before, you lose a back and forth 31-24 battle to undefeated Central Florida. How about that 38-34 comeback win over Tulsa before that. Or that 31-28 OT win over Cincy before that. I am not saying teams don't play close games. But there is a spot where you pull a clunker. SMU is bowl eligible. They wrap up their season with a winnable home game vs Tulane next. 7-4 is a nice year. 5* Best Bet MEMPHIS

Taking IONA. Had these guys last game, coming back again. Class of the MAAC. These guys are good. They just reload and move on. Weber is a good club. Should be battling for the Big Sky Championship. But I think it will take a bit for them to get it things rolling this year. Plus, this is a haul from Utah playing the Bahamas. We have an 0-2 favored over a 2-0 team. West Coast Baptist and Southern Utah are easy outs. Iona hung tough with Syracuse and lost at Albany who probably team 1A in America East. So this, as much as it is 2 mid-majors on a bracket buster Saturday in February, it is I think, a bit of step down for the Gaels. Sitting at 0-2, we might see the old circle the wagons play to get in the win column. 4* Money Maker IONA
