Good call so far.

Halftime adjustments can be huge, though.

Maybe the Saints will ignore what got them to the SB last year and decide to increase Bush's rushes from 10 to 20 per game, but I kinda doubt it. 7 touches for Bush tonight (2 carries). Barely saw the field in the 2nd half (1 carry). Thomas had 18 carries in the 2nd half. I think its pretty clear who the main RB is for NO.

where was the running game for Minnesota in the 2nd half? Rely on the 40 year olds arm. Hilarious.

Almost took Saints -5.5 for a bundle, but backed off the last minute.

There are a lot of gamblers who are ready to strangle Garret Hartley.

I am happy that I went against AP tonight. He had a mortal night and didn't hurt me this week.

Ok guys you have to help me out here. When I was in Vegas at Casears I took the Vikings +5 for tonight's game. Obviously it was 14 to 9 for a 5 point spread. Do I win or just get my initial investment back? I am so used to betting the favorites that I forgot what happens if there is a tie for the underdogs. I know if it was -5 Saints I would have lost...

Btw, what a pathetic showing by both teams. The only guy who looked somewhat worth something fantasy wise was Shiancoe.

I think that is a push and you probably lose your investment.

Thomas looked pretty good tonight as well.
