Taking New Orleans Saints -3.5 today...... they are doing well (3 wins in a row) and are now playing a disaster of a Cowboys team that has fluked out 2 wins and that means they are ok? Please. If the Saints don't win by +7 points I will be surprised. It's a huge TV game that everyone in the US watches as they digest overeating too much turkey and the Saints love a big stage.

Cincy Bengals +9 (2.00 on Pinnacle): another game today has the Jets playing on only 3 days rest (and some lucky bounce wins so they are not too impressive), and looking ahead to a bigger game coming up. Cincy may not be amazing, but they don't deserve this big a tag considering the game means a lot to them (big audience and revenge for losses to NY last year).

Pats should win, but earlier this year they came off 2 big wins and went into Cleveland and got killed and Pats are off 2 big wins again and come into Detroit who doesn't want to be embarassed in front of their fans and big TV audience. Lions +7 is a nice spot for me, it pays 1.726 so I will take that for a bit of a smaller (3/5 stakes) bet. The Lions have covered the spread 4x at home so could do it again.
