Week 7 Plays (Continued)

New England -2 2 Units
Although Gronk is out and Mack is in I can't help but bite on a chance to take New England and lay less than a field goal...against Mitch Trubisky. I get that Mitch has put in a couple of big weeks but I am absolutely not buying into him whatsoever. I think he's still way too erratic and although the Bears do have some talent on offense I don't expect them to be able to match Tom Brady and Sony Michel today.

Tampa -3.5 4 Units
I think Cleveland is going to be really good next year, but I still feel they are a year away. Tampa has their flaws but they are a high powered offense and I'm still Jameis Winston's biggest fan. Cleveland has pieces on defense but I don't think they are a unit capable of stopping an offense like Tampa that has so many different weapons that can hurt you.

Detroit -3 2 Units
Brock Osweiler may have a few people fooled coming off that randomly awesome performance last week but I can assure you that I am not the one. Osweiler is still terrible and he did absolutely nothing in last weeks win other than check down and throw screens that Wilson and company broke for long gains. Additionally, Miami has a nice defense when able to scheme a gameplan but with Detroit's trio of receivers they have the type of balanced attack that will not allow for the Fins to stop.

Colts -7 1 Unit
Buffalo is not fooling Vegas and they are definitely not fooling me. With TY Hilton healthy again I think the Colts just have too many weapons for the solid Bills defense to consistently stop. With the Bills historically bad offense it just becomes a matter of time before Indy proves too much and pulls away. Indy's defense is also scrappy and going against Derek Anderson there is no reason to be concerned today.

Saints ML +125 1 Unit
This is just a case of taking the high powered offense over the high powered defense in the 2018 NFL. Although I do believe that the Ravens are a legitimately solid team I do not think they are as upper echelon as others and I believe as the season wares on they will show their faults. The Saints currently are clicking on all cylinders offensively and in the climate that is the NFL even a good defense like Baltimore could be powerless against Drew Brees.
