murdoch is back

sorry for the long delay between posts, you're friend murdoch is doing some aerosvit codesharing at the moment and isnt able to keep up with as much ncaaf as he'd like. but since the nfl is international, and sky shows nfl games everywhere in europe, i'm going to pass on a special play today.

today, despite your better judgement, take the BILLS + 10.5 on the road against the bears.

let me begin by way of a warning;the birdman and i are playing each other this week in our fantasy league, he has grossman and i have mcgahee. maybe it's just wishful thinking but i feel like not only have the bills improved this year, but maybe, just maybe, the bears, and sexy rexy in particualar, might be starting to read their own hype. we all know what happens then. (see quinn, brady)

i'll be the first to admit that grossman is having a great year, hey, dr moonlight even gave me an orange #8, and i'll also admit that the bears are one of my favorite teams. but let's look at it realistically, that guy will get hurt sooner or later. you know it. i know it. lovie knows it. orton knows it. is today that day?

i dont know. what i do know is that buffalo will hit him a lot, and it wont be as easy for him agains the bills as it was against a soft seahawk team. a guy with that much of an injury history naturally doens not like to get hit. and he's going to get hit by the bills.

mcgahee breaks one or two and we're talking about a one possession game. and dont forget the jauron factor, he may not be hank stramm out there but , if anything, he knows the bears and their schemes.

today i see a couple of costly bear turnovers, and an improved bills O to keep this game within the number.

BUFFALO + 10.5 (**)
