JR's Plays of the Day thread

[Jrgum3]

Stupid Browns cost me a perfect 2-0 day but lets face it betting on bad teams is a recipe for disaster especially in the NFL. Here's the thing though if Jameis doesn't throw two pick sixes they cover so I feel like I made a good bet it just lost because of randomness. The NFL has been very unpredictable this year which is probably why I'm having a crappy season.

JR I’m probably the only guy who knows this star because I’m a Tampa Bay fan and has to put with him for years…

Jameis Winston’s first NFL pass was a pick-6

His last pass for Tampa Bay was a pick-6

He threw 30 interceptions his last year with the Bucs

He’s a cool guy these days but will always be an awful QB

Thats why he'll never be a starting NFL QB. He is a gunslinger though he'll throw for a bunch of yards with 4 touchdowns but there will always be a few picks sprinkled in there.

2-2 day yesterday as I go 1-1 in both college hoops and NBA. Scanning the card now for some winners I'll be back later with my plays for today it's a pretty good card in NCAAB and there's less NBA games today but maybe I'll find something I like.

Tough end to my night as the Trojans could not hold on to the lead they built at halftime and ended up not only losing but failing to beat the spread at home. Just a tough one but I'm not sure USC is that good so it's not surprising although they did play better tonight than they did when they played in their game against St. Mary's and got destroyed.

12/5/24

NFL
Green Bay Packers +3.5 -116 1.16u to win 1u
Jordan Love o253.5 passing yards -114 1.14u to win 1u

Huge game Thursday in the NFL as the Packers and Lions meet up in Detroit so I'm getting my plays in early. I think this will be a close game between two teams that had plenty of time to prepare for this game because they last played on Thanksgiving. I anticipate a shootout in the dome but I didn't like that the total got to 51.5 so I stayed away from betting the over even though I think it gets there since it's being played in the dome and both teams are battling injuries on defense. I took Jordan Love's passing yards over because I think he's going to need to throw a ton just to keep up with Detroit who has been a juggarnaut offensively at home. Due to this I think he goes over a reasonable total of 253.5 in a game I expect there to be a lot of points scored.

As for the side I really like getting more than a field goal with Green Bay. I don't think they lose by double digits if they do lose this game like they did when they played at home against the Lions. I feel like they're the healthier team and are live to win here but I'll just take the points because I expect this to be a close game that could go either way with how good Detroit has been at home.

Beating one of the most powerful teams rn is going to be a big win for Green Bay if ever. I love to see how this ends.

This is the first time I've ever done this but I'm betting against the ol alma mater tonight and taking the Billikens plus the points. I like USF but I feel 9 is too many points even on the hilltop where USF typically plays well. St. Louis hasn't been great this year so I'm a little worried that USF just rolls here but I think this is a close game and 9 points is a bit rich for USF to cover.

St. Louis hasn't been great this year so I'm a little worried that the line actually went up from the opener because it seems many people think USF is going to roll here but I think this is a close game and 9 points is a bit rich for USF to cover.

Well the truth is I'm a Kentucky fan first and a USF grad second. I went to many USF games as a student though they were always a good time because even though USF didn't really have good teams they played hard and the games were at least entertaining for the most part. Luckily USF and Kentucky don't play much because if that happened I'd actually root for Kentucky to win because that's my ride or die all day. I'd probably hope for a good game or something along those lines but the Cats to pull it out.

 

[Jrgum3]

3-3 day today so not too bad but not great either as I finish slightly down on the day. We have some conference championships tomorrow in college football plus some NBA and college hoops although it's typically a lighter card in college hoops on a Friday so we'll see what plays I have there if any.

Jrgum, you are working it like a true degenerate. Squeezing out +days with the occassional loss.
I got you up about 8 units over the last two weeks.
Keep pounding away.

They just might be able to pull it off. Boise is good at home but it is very difficult to beat a team twice in the same season. I think this is too many points especially when I consider UNLV to be live to win here.

 

[jjgold]

This guy keeps tremendous records

 

[Jrgum3]

2-2 today as UNLV gets steamrolled by Boise State who earned their place at the table so to speak as they all but guaranteed they get a first round bye in the playoffs by winning this game. I went 1-1 in NBA with Boston not going over their team total in the first half but Lebron easily clearing his points prop in an Overtime loss to the Hawks. West Virginia covered for me to start my 2-2 night as Georgetown lost in their first true road game which seems to be a theme across the country in college hoops.
