Bobby Maxwell Sunday's winners... 500-Unit NFL Book Buster - NEW ORLEANS SAINTS
The Dolphins have not been able to deal with the Colts’ passing game or the Chargers’ passing game. There’s no way in hell Miami’s defensive backfield is ready for the Saints’ onslaught that is about to hit them.
New Orleans has the NFL’s most prolific offense, averaging 430 yards per game and 38.4 points per contest. Throw in the fact their defense isn’t all that bad and this looks like a perfect matchup for the Saints.
Miami is going to try to control the clock with the rushing game, and while it is the league’s best rushing attack at 177 yards per game, they can’t eat up the entire quarter with each possession. The Wildcat offense will do its normal thing and put up some yards, but the Dolphins aren’t going to be able to keep up with the Saints.
This game is going to resemble the Dolphins-Colts Monday Night Football game that saw Miami dominate the clock, but the Colts come out and score in four or five plays whenever they got it.
New Orleans is on several ATS runs, including 15-5-1 overall, 5-0-1 on the road, 4-0 against teams with losing records, 17-5 as a favorite and 6-1 as a non-division road favorite. Miami is on ATS slides of 15-36-1 at home, 1-4 as an underdog, 2-5 as a home ‘dog and 0-6 against NFC squads.
This game could get ugly for the Dolphins quickly. Lay the chalk and play the Saints.
100-Unit AFC West Wipeout - SAN DIEGO CHARGERS
The San Diego Chargers have their backs against the wall and have got to shift to must-win mode. This team is too talented offensively to think they aren’t going to walk into Arrowhead Stadium today and light up the Chiefs’ defense.
I know these teams played two thrillers last season, but San Diego has got too much talent on offense to be stifled in this one. Philip Rivers and the passing game is ranked fifth in the NFL, getting 284 yards per game through the air. Rivers has several talented targets in Vincent Jackson, Antonio Gates, Malcolm Floyd and Chris Chambers. Look for the Chargers’ coaching staff to put the ball in Rivers’ hands and let him go win this game with his arm.
Kansas City got its first win of the season last week in Washington, scoring a 14-6 win as 6 ½-point underdogs. The Chiefs just can’t seem to score enough points to be able to stay in this game. And their defense is giving up 24 points a game, including ugly losses to Baltimore, Philadelphia, Dallas and the Giants when they gave up 26 points or more. Offensively, Kansas City is 30th in the NFL, putting up just 259.7 yards per game.
The Chiefs are on ATS slides of 2-6 overall, 4-12 at home and 2-5 as an underdog. Meanwhile, San Diego is on several solid ATS runs, including 21-9-4 against AFC West opponents and 6-3 in the last Nine as a favorite in AFC West games.
Loving the Chargers today in this must-win situation. Lay the chalk and play San Diego.
