This week's NFL games, versus the spread and over/under?
I'm in a pool where we have to pick the winner against the spread (if you take the spread away from the favorite's point total, who would win the game?) and the over/under for each game (will the total points scored be more or less than the over/under amount?). Who would you take for each of the games (these odds are what the pool is using):
Favorite (spread) Underdog - Over/under
New Orleans (7 points) over Arizona - 56-1/2 total points
Indy (6-1/2) over Baltimore - 44-1/2
Minnesota (2-1/2) over Dallas - 46-1/2
San Diego (8) over NY Jets - 42-1/2
I think Arizona wins or New Orleans does, but by less than a touchdown. So, I'm leaning toward Arizona. I'm also leaning toward the over (for example, 31-27 is over).
I think Indy wins, but not by a touchdown or more. So, I'm leaning toward Baltimore. I'm also leaning toward the under (for example, 24-20 would be under).
I think Minnesota wins by more than a field goal. So, I'm taking Minnesota. I also anticipate a high-scoring game, especially by the Vikings. So, I'm leaning toward the over.
I think the Chargers will win, but I don't know if it will be by 8 points or more. So, I'm leaning toward New York. I also think it's going to be something like 21-17, which is the under.
