Florida State +8

Looking Back at Week 1: Results Home Team: 3-1 Straight Up, 3-1 ATS Favorites: 2-2 Straight Up, 2-2 ATS Under: 3-1 Against the Closing Number* (*Seattle/DC went over the opener but Under the closing number) Yards Per Play DC 6.3 Houston 5.6 Tampa Bay 5.5 St. Louis 5.3 New York 5.0 Seattle 4.8 Dallas 4.5 LA 3.9 Initial Takeaways At first glance you might think the clock rules favor the under with the clock running after incomplete passes except for the last 2 minutes of the half - but the clock really slows down in the last 2 minutes stopping after every play to spot the ball. Under was looking great in the Seattle/DC game until the last 2 minutes of the first half. Do any books offer in game wagers? Might be an advantage hitting the in game over at the 2 minute warning of the 1st half. There is more going for it on 4th down as punts out of bounds and into the endzone result in the ball at the 35 yard line I’m not sure key numbers exist in this league with the PAT rules Seattle 19 @ D.C. 31: (DC -7.5, o/u 51) Close first half. DC outscored Seattle 19-6 in 3rd Quarter (no points in 4th Quarter) DC benefitted from a blocked punt TD, INT TD where the receiver fell down, and Seattle fumble inside the 5 yard line. Potentially misleading final score based on that although DC did average 6.3 yards per play vs 4.8 for Seattle LA 17 @ Houston 37: (Houston -6.5, o/u 51.5) Close first half, Houston dominated the second half 19-0 Can’t find the exact number but If I remember correctly turnovers were something like 5-0 LA Hou QB Walker looked good LA benched starting QB Kanoff. Backup McClendon didn’t do anything Tampa Bay 3 @ New York 23: (Tampa Bay -4, o/u 52.5) TB looked horrible. As a Bears fan it looked all too familiar for a Trestman coached team. Lots of confusion and Murray looked bad. Oddsmakers loved TB coming into the season. We’ll see how much they adjust? St. Louis 15 @ Dallas 9: (Dallas -9.5,o/u 52.5) Stoops seems pretty disinterested? Dallas Starting QB Jones didn’t play STL kept the playcalling pretty simple for 22 year old QB Ta’amu. Not too many chances. Lots of penalties for STL STL defense made a lot of plays Looking Ahead to Week 2: Time to Prepare: -1 Day: New York (Gilbride), Tampa Bay (Trestman) Regular: DC (Hamilton), Seattle (Zorn), Dallas (Stoops), St. Louis (Hayes) +1 Day: Houston (Jones), Los Angeles (Moss) Travel Back to Back Home Games: DC (Hamilton), Houston (Jones) Back to Back Road Games: Tampa Bay (Trestman), St. Louis (Hayes) Long Flight: Tampa Bay to Seattle for 2nd Consecutive Road Game New York (1-0) @ DC (1-0) -1 day to prepare for NY (Gilbride), plus travel Think NY may be a little overvalued based on week 1 result but my theory is that was more a result of TB being bad than NY being good. We’ll see, but I lean DC in their second straight home game if line is under a TD. Tampa Bay (0-1) @ Seattle (0-1) Seattle with an extra day to prepare and long flight for Tampa Bay (Trestman) Lean: SEA. TB has a lot of figure out and a short week with a long flight to do it. TB was a road fav this week. If they are again I may hammer SEA. Dallas (0-1) @ LA (0-1) LA (Moss) extra day to prepare Need to monitor Dallas QB situation - sounds like Jones has barely practiced Initial lean to LA. St. Louis (1-0) @ Houston (1-0) Houston (Jones) 1 more day to prepare than St. Louis (Hayes) Contrasting styles. Hou Air Raid vs. STL RPO Initial thought is that STL offense will have a hard time keeping up with Houston offense My Power Rankings Houston - Really complete win on Saturday. Seems like the kind of league that June Jones could really be tough in. DC - Cardale Jones and offense looked good in Week 1 but they may have been a little lucky with blocked punt and pick 6 St. Louis - Only team to get a road win in week 1 and they did it as the biggest underdog of the week. Defense looked really good against a backup QB. Need to clean up the penalties but Ta’amu showed poise and skill. New York - Only defense to hold a team under 6 points in week 1. McGloin solid in 23-3 win. Seattle - Hung with DC on the road but special teams and turnovers let them down. Dallas - Disappointing home loss to open the season. Can Landry Jones turn them around? LA - Hung with Houston for a half before getting completely shut down in the 2nd half. Not sure how much of that was how good Houston is or how bad they are? Tampa Bay - Trestman’s team looked confused and Murray looked really bad. Brutal week one showing.

Seattle/DC Under 49.5 (-110) Loss, -3.30 Units Los Angeles/Houston Over 51 (-110) Win, +3.00 Units Tampa Bay/New York Over 51.5 (-110) Loss, -3.30 Units St. Louis (+9.5) (-110) @ Dallas Win, +4.00 Units Week 1: 2-2, +0.40 Units YTD: 2-2, +0.40 Units

Uhh not yet with these rules. Gotta get points here.

Go Cats

Trying their best to fuck us. Stop doing dumb shit guys

I like them too

St. Louis (+9.5) (-110) @ Dallas Risking 4.40 to win 4.00

Thanks Balco

XFL TB/NY Over 51.5

Nice, I’ll have to check it out

Tampa Bay/New York Over 51.5 (-110) Risking 3.30 to win 3.00

Will do FW. Might try to check one out for March Madness. Stopped by Hammond briefly a couple weeks ago

Yeah, I actually did. Was driving home from Tennessee and decided to test out the FanDuel app when in Indiana. Got some at under 51 so it ended up being a wash for me (but not my posted record). Pretty lucky the way that one ended. This league is looking like points

That was my approach too

Los Angeles/Houston Over 51 (-110) Risking 3.30 to win 3.00

Bullshit surge of points at the end of the half. Blocked punt TD, penalty after 3rd down stop leads to another 8 points, then a long ass FG because of the dumb kickoff rule

XFL Seattle/DC Under 49.5

Seattle/DC Under 49.5 (-110) Risking 3.30 to win 3.00

Totals up Seattle/DC 49.5 LA/Hou 50 TB/NY 51.5 STL/DAL 51.5

Let’s get it, sleepy

Starting QB Landry Jones likely out for Dallas but backup is Eric Dungey from Syracuse. I always liked him

Looking forward to it. Anything we like this weekend, tgf?
