Sometimes it’s about the games you don’t want to play.I know that sounds like some bizarre “Talladega Nights” fortune cookie shenanigans but it’s a proper right in sports gambling. There are some games that warrant too many disasters http://www.lionscheapshop.com/cheap-authentic-ricky-jean-francois-jersey , too many unknowns, too many very dumb Football Men who think they know everything ready to muck the whole train up. There’s no divining these, no matter what the man on the voicemail tells you. He’s just there gibbering about units when he ain’t got a unit to spare.However, by obligation to this betting column I have to pick every game. I could just write a bunch of these off, but I can’t. It brings the record down, Sam. But rest assured, this week is full of traps, dangers and hurricanes that shouldn’t invite anyone. Short lines, long spreads Cheap Ziggy Ansah Jersey , teams imploding under their own ambitions, benching quarterback for whatever reason, trade deadlines and the abominable Oakland Raiders, Week 8 of the NFL season has become a minefield. Tread carefully.Last week’s record: 8-6-0Jacksonville vs. Philadelphia UNDER 42The right and proper thing to do right now is just keep selling on the Jaguars. There’s no reason to out-think yourself right now and believe there’s a turnabout. It might happen. It might not! The worst thing is, I have to pick every game, and I’d rather just stay away until this fire blows over. You know what that means, right? Time to take a total. But really you shouldn’t bet on this game and its two very sad teams.Cleveland +8 @ PittsburghAnother wretched, abominable line! Eight is no good for anyone. The space between a 10 point spread and a touchdown is no-man’s land, and should be avoided proper. But as we determined at the start of the column http://www.lionscheapshop.com/cheap-authentic-devon-kennard-jersey , we’re interested in setting off whatever mines and exploding corpses we can find.Detroit -2.5 vs. SeattleI generally have distaste showing off my reasoning for Lions games picks in these columns, for various reasons. One should never bet where there might be any heart matter. But in this case, you should know the Lions are 5-1 against the spread so far this season, and while I will doubt their success in the present there’s no reason to fade them against a Seahawks squad who haven’t covered on the road all year. In a week of miserable lines, this one is tolerable to pick.Kansas City -10 vs. DenverYep. This is what value looks like. Never mind that the Broncos nearly knocked the Chiefs off their pedestal early, I just have to ride high on Patrick Mahomes for the time being. This is the part of the season where betting on the NFL becomes decidedly un-fun. Lines get set excessively high or decidedly low, and the books have woken up to all your fun little secrets and edges and stomped them out ruthlessly, and everything looks like a trap.New York +7.5 @ ChicagoOh my god already just stop.Oakland +3 vs. IndianapolisWe’re doing that thing with the Colts again, I guess. We’re just pretending they’re good because they’ve got Andrew Luck and not bothering to watch a second of this team play anyone Matt Prater Jersey , right? The Colts suck.They are the worst secret of the NFL, a black hole where former players in suits at roundtable desks throw platitudes into and nothing comes back out of. They are the most lauded 2-5 team you could imagine. Rest assured, the Raiders are a despicable, evil mess and a lousy excuse of a Hooters franchise, but they’re playing in their own home, a west coast cry from the nap-ridden fields of Indianapolis. Ignore the Amari Cooper trade; it won’t have an immediate impact on what the Raiders do.Baltimore -2 @ CarolinaIs it me or have the Ravens played a NFC opponent nearly every week in October? I know that’s not right because I have the internet right in front of me and I could very well easily look up their schedule, but it just feels like it, okay? Sometimes your feelings are better than any facts. Go eat turpentine, Ben Shapiro.All the restMiami +7.5 @ HoustonCincinnati -4 vs. Tampa BayArizona vs. San Francisco OVER 42Los Angeles -9.5 vs. Green BayMinnesota vs. New Orleans UNDER 56.5Washington +1 @ New YorkBuffalo vs. New England OVER 44.5Detroit Lions players react to Quandre Diggs’ 3-year extension The Detroit Lions made Quandre Diggs’ three-year contract extension official on Monday morning. General manager Bob Quinn offered this statement on Diggs’ growth in his three years since being drafted in the sixth round:“Quandre has developed into one of our core defensive players and we are excited to come to this agreement that will have him as a Detroit Lion for the next four seasons Nevin Lawson Jersey ,” Quinn said in an official statement. But Quinn wasn’t the only one to offer his excitement for Diggs staying around. As Detroit Lions players woke up to learn the news on Monday morning, several went to social media to offer their congratulations. Most notably was Lions receiver Golden Tate, who himself is waiting to see if the Lions will offer him an extension as he enters the final year of his contract. Safety Charles Washington shared his thoughts via an Instagram story:Then there was Darius Slay, who was jubilant in the locker room Monday, conducting a fake interview with Diggs and asking how much he weighs with an extra $20 million. He offered this social media post:But there were a couple of former Lions player who knew Diggs well that wanted to offer their congratulations as well.Former Lions cornerback Alex Carter, who was actually drafted three rounds before Diggs in the same year, was clearly excited for his former teammate: Patriots linebacker, and teammate of Diggs for just over a year, Kyle Van Noy—who got his own extension last year—offered his thoughts on Twitter:And former backup quarterback turned analyst Dan Orlovsky: And former Lions fifth-round pick Caraun Reid: And you may remember James Ihedigbo Cheap Kerryon Johnson Jersey , who may have taught Diggs a thing or two about laying the boom back in 2015: Diggs actually credited James Ihedigbo, among plenty of other former Lions cornerbacks like Rashean Mathis, with helping him throughout his career.It’s clear that Diggs is—and has been—valued in that locker room for some time now. Thankfully, the Lions saw that and paid the man accordingly.
