Results – 9/11/2011
It was a negative weekend for returns, but that was somewhat to be expected since the Saints and Packers played each other. Had the Saints won it would have been a positive weekend, but the Packer fan in me is willing to accept a bit less in returns for a head-to-head win against a strong conference rival.
The Chargers played a sluggish first half before putting together a couple of second half drives to put away the Vikings. The Vikes look like they are going to be bad on offense. Peterson looked good but McNabb didn’t do anything to move the team. The Vikes only scored 17 points against what was not thought to be an exceptional San Diego defense and 7 of those were on Harvin’s opening kick off return. The return was funny in one aspect: All preseason the pundits have been picking San Diego to be much improved. Part of their rationale was that the updated kick-off rules should make it so there would be more touchbacks. More touchbacks means San Diego’s horrible special teams wouldn’t have to attempt to cover so many kicks. Well, so much for that. Harvin took the first kickoff of the season back for a TD.
Here are the results:
Packers: 0.476
Saints: (1.00)
Chargers: 0.25
Week Total: (0.274)
Season Total: (0.274)
Here are next week’s lines. I’m still trying to figure out when is the best time to invest on a weekly basis. Right now the moneylines are not available so that makes it easy.
Saints -7 Bears
Packers -10 Panthers
Chargers Unknown Patriots – I’m assuming the line isn’t out yet since NE just played last night.
