What do you mean that there is no way that should have happened? First,
the Falcons are legitimately a very good team - they have a defence that
can keep any game close, and one player, Michael Vick who can
single-handedly win a close game if it comes down to it. Moreover, Green
Bay's defense has been suspect all year - and they were playing without
perhaps their best defensive player - Darren Sharper. Additionally, they
were also missing Brett Favre's favorite target - Donald Driver, leaving
them without any quality wide receivers. So, while I didn't necessarily
anticipate Atlanta's domination of Green Bay, its not like it was....
well..... *unpredictable.* :)
BTW - I moved into second place in his office pool this weekend, by a
margin of 100,000 to 97,706. (points represent "monopoly money" used to
bet against the point spread for the duration of the NFL season. Behind
me are players at 97534, 84500, 80000, 52000, and 50000 - along with a
large group of others who have less than half my score (so can't catch me
next week, at least, if I don't bet.) )
So..... given that real money is awarded to the Top 4 finishers, and they
are three weeks remaining in the NFL season, does anyone have
recommendations for an optimal betting strategy for this week?
