Parlay: (5 units) Atlanta Falcons -270 over Minnesota Vikings
Michael Vick, almost enough said here. Culpepper, even though he's off a good week for Minnesota knows that he can go back into the tank any week. Yeah they're playing inside here but this helps Michael Vick a great deal as well. Vick off a game in which he rushed for 64 yards and threw for up and around 180 should be plenty warmed up this week as he takes on the aenemic Vikings defense. They signed Fred Smoot but this team is still a choke and it has lost its only gamebreaker. Just a win here for Atlanta. Michael Vick makes too much happen. Minnesota doesn't have enough pieces left. Nate Burleson, even if he does play is nowhere near game form. Not good when you're talking about the teams #1 receiver. Marcus Robinson lost his #1 ability with a few years of ineffectiveness. Like Vick and the Falcons here. New England Patriots -200 over San Diego Chargers
The home streak, is what it's all about. Looking for teams that play with motivation, etc. Brady vs Brees in the battle of reliable QBs. Just don't see the Pats losing here as they haven't already in 20+ games consecutive. As long as Bill Bellichek is coaching the team always has more than a reliable shot of winning. They're up against a great offense but the Chargers defense is still suffering. Likely high scoring matchup here, edge to Pats, home side and fearsome home record over their last 25 games. Tomlinson is one hell of a back but Corey Dillon is gonna get his yards today.
Medium to high stake.
GL!
