Agree, I posted this on Friday elsewhere, but would still take it at +4.5

5* INDIANAPOLIS +6, +100 over Washington

This line is pretty bad. The oddsmakers are accounting for the fact that new coaches "want to win" and the fact that Dungy has been terrible the last 3 years in the pre-season with no Peyton Manning.

First off, the Colts have no Manning but have a wide open race for the 2nd and 3rd QB spots with Jim Sorgi, Quinn Gray and Jared Lorenzen, all who have significant NFL pre-season experience. The Washington QB rotation consists of Jason Campbell, Todd Collins and Colt Brennan. Colt Brennan will be getting his first does ever of NFL Pre-season speed here. The new coaches want to win theory is semi-true, HOWEVER, it is more true for new coaches taking over moribound teams who have missed the playoffs the last few years. They have to work on winning a fan base back in the pre-season. The Redskins were a veteran playoff team last year and now you have a new coach coming in and installing a brand new system with veteran players who have already won with the old system. Will they be picking up this new system for the first game in just 8 days of training camp. I doubt it. Reports out of Washington camp was that Todd Collins is having trouble picking up the system early on because he played in the same exact system under Al Saunders the past 8 years. The dog in any game involving a VIRGIN NFL head coach is 27-13-1 ATS in the last 41 tries simply because of this reason. Virgin head coaches that are dogs are usually taking over bad teams and do their best to instill customer confidence from the get go. Virgin head coaches that are favs are usually taking over better veteran teams and have trouble installing a new system for the team right away. Colts have the better QB rotation, the same system and a little history on the side. I am jumping out with a top rated play on this one.

if the Skins only get 1/TD and the Colts only get 1/FG in the 2H, i'm a happy camper!

Gray seems to pitch the ball better on the run. mann, i was really beginning to wonder about him there for a minute (well, i still do) Colts backups suck rocks. sure hope Peyton is alright come regular season ....

ya know, i can understand the Colts takin Gray from the Jags, but wtf were they thinking takin Lorenzen from the G-Men?!? jayzus, he's as big as their guards & tackles. i was really surprised they didn't have him sneak it on the 3rd & 1 at the end there ....

Colt sure looked good

whew! just glad i took the Ov to hedge my stupid Colts plus points pick. don't ask me why but i totally missed that Peyton was having surgery, and i listen to NFL Tv all day?

good call on the Ov Cubie & Fixer. thanks

GMen let me down with a Push, and the Bears flat-out lost for me.

Browns aint doin me any favors right now either .... Dorsey couldn't punch it in and instead pitched an INT on the Jets 14

hopefully my birds (Eagles & Seahawks) do me better 2moro

it's crazy i know, but that's just how pre-season goes Cubie. they're more concerned with seeing how they can convert in a critical situation, like a go-ahead & win play like that, than they are in actually winning the game.

only reason i'm betting the games is to test my gutt more than anything else? that's why i made more picks (above) tonite. i seriously doubt any system will determine the outcome of a pre-season game?

WTF?!?

Carolina - 2:11
1st-10, CAR27 2:11 D. Birmingham rushed to the left for 5 yard gain
2nd-5, CAR31 2:00 L. Ricard passed to D. Thompson to the right for 11 yard gain
1st-10, CAR42 1:53 L. Ricard passed to W. Buchanon to the left for 21 yard gain
1st-10, IND37 1:15 IND committed 18 yard penalty
1st-10, IND19 1:08 D. Birmingham rushed to the left for 9 yard gain
2nd-1, IND10 0:25 D. Birmingham rushed up the middle for no gain
3rd-1, IND10 0:01 J. Kyle rushed up the middle for no gain. J. Kyle fumbled. J. Baker recovered fumble

Panthers have the ball with 1/tic left on the Colts 10, and they muff the damned FG to win the game?!?
