Yep, pretty much how I see it. And we all know by now, Kyler always looks good to start a season. But by mid-season things start to fall off for him. And for damned sure Harbaugh is going to make things as uncomfortable for Kyler as he can. [Reply]

Decent chance we're looking at a shootout in that one.
The other game is likely to be awful. I expect LAC will win simply because Kyler is Kyler, and I think LAC has the better coach.
I’ll tail you on those. Those seem like decent bets [Reply]

Btw, for the degenerates out there: I took the Under for Herbert to rush for 10.5 yds. Seems like a gimme since he’s only eclipsed that number once (17) this season, and with that bad wheel they aren’t running him at all. He’s averaging like 5-6 yds /gm, I think
The other one was the Over for Dobbins rushing. ARI has only kept one RB under their total this season. Giving up something like 150 yds/GM to RBs. [Reply]

I also put Herbert under rushing yards straight and on my miracle parlay. They won’t pass a ton and even if he does the Cardinals pass rush won’t force him to run even if he was healthy. As it is the few times they pass he’ll probably find guys open anyways given the Cardinals defense. [Reply]
Ravens/Bucs feels like a 34-24 game in favor of the Ravens. Chargers/Cardinals could really go any way. Have no feeling whatsoever on that one. [Reply]

I feel same as you on Ravens/Bucs. I also expect the Chargers to win. The Cardinals just have no talent at all on defense. And Kyler can put up some numbers but I don't trust him to make plays in key game situations to win it. [Reply]
