NFL Betting Trends - Chicago vs. New Orleans This Weekend
I tried to
think of a better word than “suckiness” but
I just can’t think of one at this
point and time. I mean, is the NFC ever
going to field a team in the Super Bowl
that can follow-up a great year with at
least an okay year? Mathematically, the
Saints are still in it, yeah, I get that,
but seriously, does anybody think that
this team on it’s third and fourth
string running backs, with a defense that
resembles that smelly cheese in your refrigerator
drawer, and with a coach who looks like
he should be bothering next-door neighbor
Mr. Wilson instead of calling plays behind
a laminated sheet of crap is going to do
anything in the NFL betting playoffs?
I don’t
and I love those guys!
What about
the Bears? Christ! Here I am cursing
on Baby Jesus’ Birthday,
as Ricky Bobby from Talladega Nights might
say, because…well, because I don’t
know what else to write about those guys.
They’re bad, man.
Let’s
re-cap, shall we?
Coming off
of a year in which they made the Super
Bowl, the Bears are 6 and 9 against the
spread. That’s right, 6 and 9.
Losers! Why? Because Lovie Smith, and the
rest of the Bears’ management made
some of the most questionable decisions
in the history of the NFL off-season. Okay,
not trading for Donovan McNabb is one thing,
but not even thinking of picking up Byron
Leftwich after the Jags let him go was
just stupid. How about cutting Tank Johnson
because of his off the field issues? Yeah,
that was great leadership.
Then, waffling
between the bastard NFL son that is Brian
Greise and the “I’m
not really a quarterback but I play one
on TV” Rex Grossman was just stupid.
All of this while Kyle Orton, the one quarterback
on your squad who you have the ability
to develop, sits on the bench in no-man’s
land.
This has
not just been a down year for the Bears
it has been a wasted year. They haven’t developed Orton, they got
their defensive backs hurt again, and they
didn’t get any closer to figuring
out what to do with Sexy Rexy. Again -
- Losers!
Of course,
the Saints weren’t any
better this year. They came into this season
with the two-headed monster, remember?
Deuce “Thunder” McCallister
and Reggie “Lightning” Bush?
Well, Deuce got hurt which wasn’t
his fault, but Reggie? Jesus! Are you kidding
me, Becky? If somebody breaths on him the
wrong way, Reggie took a knee all year
before getting hurt. The guy hasn’t
figured out how to play in the NFL odds
yet. Well, he’d better hurry because
those free meals at Delmonico’s might
start ending if he doesn’t start
producing.
But, Reggie’s issues weren’t
the three biggest problems with the Saints
this year. Nope, the three biggest problems
had to do with Sean Payton. First, the
Saints’ decided to draft Robert Meachem
in the first round. That was probably the
biggest Becky move of the draft. Instead
of going out and grabbing a serviceable
line-backer or cornerback, they took a
wide receiver that has played, oh, I don’t
know, in almost NO games this year! Heck,
I don’t even know what the guy looks
like!
Then, Genius Boy Patton gets together
with Guru G.M. Mickey Loomis and throw
6 million at Jason David. David, coming
off of a Super Bowl win with the Indianapolis
Colts, somehow becomes the darling cornerback
of the free agency period for the Saints.
Sean and Mick, the next time you guys want
to make a move like that, call me, okay?
Ever heard of a former Super Bowl MVP defensive
back named Larry Brown? How about Dexter
Jackson? Yeah, those guys took teams for
a financial ride after the Super Bowl too!
David is
terrible. The guy can’t
tackle and worse, he can’t play man-to-man
defense which, of course, is what the Saints
like to play in their defensive secondary.
How do you figure that?
But the worst
thing about the Saints this year is Sean
Payton’s play-calling.
Sean loves those screens and reverses and
double-reverses. Ever heard of a good old-fashioned
five and out, Sean?
The Bears and Saints - - both NFC studies
in stupidity and mismanagement.
I can’t
wait to see what the Cowboys and Packers
do next year!
Until next week, good luck!
