Nelayan,
Week
12 Recap
Week
12 was nearly perfect for us as we went 6-1 ATS and 4-0
on the MoneyLine. It was the first real killer week since
we started the 2004 NFL regular season off with the 9-1
ATS run in weeks 1 and 2. Finally our philosophy of selectively
going against the public paid off. There were four very
nice contrarian underdog plays on Sunday that came through
for us with ATS and straight-up wins.

NFL picks and prior newsletters/write-ups.

AFC/NFC
Disparity
How
bad is the NFC compared to the AFC? AFC teams are 32-18 vs.
their counterparts this season. In the NFC, several teams sitting
at 4-7 still have a chance to make the playoffs. Meanwhile,
there could be an 11-win team in the AFC that watches from
home in January. Very sad.

Yes,
another contrarian play on the
underdog that I view to be the
better team. Everyone seems to
be on the Bucs this week. They
have certainly come back from
the dead behind the legs of Michael
Pittman and the arm of Brian
Griese. After starting 1-5 SU
and 1-4-1 ATS, they've bounced
back to 3-1 SU and ATS over their
last four games and now have
a shot at the playoffs in the
weak NFC. While a lot of it is
due to Brian Griese who I've
written about as being much better
than most people give him credit
for, a lot also has to do with
their schedule. When you face
play three home games against
Chicago, Kansas City and San
Francisco, you'd better go 3-0
or at least 2-1. The single loss
over the past month? To Atlanta
on the road. Now TB is laying
a field goal on the road. Seems
fishy to me. Meanwhile, no one
seems to have noticed the Panthers'
resurrengce. Possibly because
it's still on the upswing. I
think the leauge will take notice
ater they beat the Bucs today.
Carolina has gone 3-1 ATS in
their last four. They beat up
on the Cardinals and 49ers in
a big way and kept it close against
Oakland and Seattle. Yes, three
of those opponents were also
bad but I was particularly impressed
with the win against an up-and-coming
Cardinals squad. The Panthers
beat them 35-10 and that showed
me something. But, none of these
reasons are the primary one I
like this game. The biggest one
is a bit hidden. Did you know
that Carolina owns the best red-zone
offense in the league? That's
right. They score a TD 69% of
the time and put it through the
uprights 26% of the time the
time they get inside the opponent's
20 yard line. That's 95%, my
friends. Conversely, Tampa puts
up points just 60% of the time.
On defense, Carolina also does
a better job in the red zone
than Tampa. In what figures to
be a tight, closely fought battle,
I think this is a huge advantage
for the Panthers. We'll go three
units (3%) on Carolina +2.5 and
another 1-star (1%) on Carolina
to pull the upset.
Result:
Carolina 21, Tampa 14- Carolina pulls the
upset.

I'm
getting right back on the
Panthers again this week
in a big way. In
predicting the Panthers
win last week, I noted
that the Carolina's resurrgence
had yet to be noticed by
the league or sports bettors.
I predicted that after
they beat Tampa Bay, the
secret would be out. I
was wrong. They still aren't
getting the respec they
deserve in this one. Carolina
is better than New Orleans
and is riding a run of
solid play and confidence.
They should be favored.
Instead, we get a very
hot team getting points
against a poor team. Hallelujah!
Despite Carolina's early
season troubles this year
(they started 1-7 SU and
3-5 ATS), they have actually
been amazing on the road.
They are 4-1 against the
number this year away from
home. The Panthers are
also 11-2
ATS as a road
underdog of a touchdown
or less while New Orleans
is 1-6 at home vs. division
opponents. But let's get
back to these teams' recent
performances. Carolina
is a different team than
the one that started 1-7.
Over their past three games,
all SU and ATS winners,
they are averaging 31 points
per game and surrendering
just 17. New Orleans, on
the other hand, has lost
by an average score of
20-30 over their past four
games. Against good defenses
this year (TB, SD, DEN),
the Saints haven't scored
more than 17 points. The
Panthers, behind a hot
Jake Delhomme/Mushin Muhammed
combination and a rediscovered
Nick Goings, will score
more than that today against
the league's worst defense.
Goings has gained 227 yards
over the past two games
alone. The Panthers believe
while the Saints know they
aren't going to make it
this year. Five stars (5%
of your bankroll) on the
Panthers plus 1.5 here.

Betting
Recommendations and Unit Tracking
My star ratings equate to the following betting recommendations for
each pick. For tracking purposes on my site, my bankroll is assumed
to be an even $5000.
* (1
star) = 1% of bankroll (or $50)
**
(2 star) = 2% of bankroll (or $100)
***
(3 star) = 3% of bankroll (or $150)
****
(4 star) = 4% of bankroll (or $200)
*****
(5 star) = 5% of bankroll (or $250)
******
(6 star) = 6% of bankroll (or $300)
To
determine your bet amount, you should simply use the percentages
below, multiplied by your specific bankroll. It is my strong recommendation
that you never bet more than 10% of your bankroll on any given
game - ever! You should usually bet just a few percent.
There are no such thing as locks. See my write-up on Bankroll
Management.
