In honor of Omar...

[Riderx]

Omar used to post huge consensus numbers on teams from Yahoo that were "play against" plays. I forget the number but I believe it was if a team was 80% or higher, play against them. Also, it seemed to work only up to a certain week# but I forget what it was, maybe week 10?

Omar...if you're out there...like to hear your input. Thanks.

Anyways, T'Bay was 93% and the play was on Dal+...which won on Thurs. night.

There are seven more plays. These are the "play on" teams and the % picked:

Det +8'...6%
Cle +5'...6%
Chi +8...7%
NYJ +3...10%
NOr +3'...10%
Pit +6'...12%
Ind +2'...14%

Again these are the "play on" teams.

May be some good m/l winners in there.

BOL!

Hey, RiderX. Sorry I'm so late to the party this year. I've been putting most of my time and effort into Best Ball drafts. Now that I'm done with that, the focus is back on sides and totals.

The Cowboys were a pick for me on Thursday because Joe Public was not on their side, but that's not normally the plays I post here.

I typically look for a situation where the public does not like the home dog.

When looking at the Pick Distribution at Yahoo, be sure to select the SPREAD only tab, as shown below.

















































































































The Saints are at home, and only 20% of the contestants picked them, so Saints is a play for the system.

Detroit and Indy plus the points are a lean. Add in the Bengals too. Those are the dogs I'm looking at. Maybe I play them, maybe not.
Hope this helps. GL to all!
