interesting. I just don’t think Tua qualifies though IMO. He missed a few games but not that many. 
 

Of course on the flip side Hamlin missed even fewer games than Tua. But drastically different degrees of injuries of course. 
 

My guess would be Odell would win before Tua. Then you have Kyler Murray, Stafford, Von Miller. 

I dont think hes even going to play this year (is he?). aside from physically (injured Dec 12th) being able to play.... theyre the run away favorites for #1 overall. if i was them, id sit him to let him fully heal, but im definitely not rushing him back to play a game or two, to possibly have him jacking up sliding to #2 or #3. (Side note, do they pull a Bears and move down if they land #1?  Early reports: 

Quote

Mike Jurecki is the best team reporter in the business, and he said on Twitter that if the Cardinals obtained the No. 1 pick, they would trade the selection to a team like the Buccaneers/Raiders because they're stuck with Kyler Murray's albatross of a contract.

 

Dont expect much out of Stafford. Id be cool with Von though!! haha

I know @ArdmoreRyno use to run a handicapping website

 

Seriously let's figure out the two Bills drive sharps... Versus the marks

 

And let's have fun doing it

 

Keep your own record against the spread in this thread

[Beast]

Take Navy +20.5 at Notre Dame on August 26th.

Navy has been known to play the Irish tough and Navy’s style of offense translates better in an early opening game.

Look I was mostly just joking originally but if there are people looking for advice on wagers you might as well tell them the truth

 

Moneyline favorites do not win enough to be profitable

Absolutely..   and I was going to add that you're not going to make a lot of money on the money line... I usually parlay my money lines

 

Unless you're betting underdogs, then there is some money

 

But if you pay attention there's always a groove you can ride during the season

 

@GoBills808who do you like week 1 CFB (spread)

 

 

 

Love this thread already lollllllll

Who died and left you a the sight gambling "expert", just another LAMP thread

 

Gambling on football is as old as the sport

 

I'm sure plenty of people have been gambling on football for 20 years here... That's why it's fun to start a thread where people share their picks

 

Where did I ever say I was an expert? I said I'm only going to share things that I am spending money on myself that I consider a lock 

 

And I have friends who are legitimate sharps

I don't bet college football, don't follow it closely

 

I'll leave my NFL wagers here and some golf and Champions League bets

 

All real tickets, if I break even over the season I consider it a win

Golf? And yea I was around 54% against the spread last season 

 

My original quote to you shoulda specified money line ... I know it sounded ridiculous

Up in the air on that one.. but your points I think are the swaying points

 

Tough to stop the triple option week 1..  it's also in Ireland which I don't know if that benefits Notre Dame

 

I can see Navy covering...

Someone placed 75k on Alabama vs MTSU

 

-25000 money line 

 

$75,000 to win 300

 

But hey... It's 300 bucks

The way to beat Navy badly is having top level athletes at receiver, like Marvin Harrison Jr. types. If you have to run a lot or short pass it the score will likely be low scoring and getting that 22 pt lead would be difficult.

Yeah I read that when it happened lol

 

Still a million to win 11k is a little over 1%

 

-25000 is less than half that

True...  But I guess if you have the money ? It's gonna be nearly impossible for Bama to lose to middle Tennessee State

 

Not one kid at MTSU could get a scholarship at Alabama

 

But there's definitely smarter bets to give you a better return

Who upset Bama 2 years ago? Was someone the equivalent of MTSU! Or maybe the team just took them to OT in a nail biter

It wasn't a great football team but they're an Sec program
