UNCLE IRA

Philadelphia -6.5
at Washington

Jalen Hurts is emerging as a very dangerous quarterback.

Las Vegas -2.5
at Tennessee

This is the week Derrick Henry returns to form.

San Francisco -1.5
at Denver

JOE

Baltimore -3
at New England

Bill Belicheat has been a home dog in 19 games in New England. He’s 15-4 in those games.  

New Orleans -2.5
at Carolina

The slimy Saints, still bitter over last week’s loss to the Bucs, take out their frustrations on the Stinking Panthers. In an effort not to get blown out, embattled Carolina coach Matt Rhule agrees to tip pitches on offense so long as the slimy Saints agree not to beat his team by more than 14.

Dallas
at New York Giants -1

This is where Daniel Jones turns into a pumpkin. Micah Parsons triggers Giants fans when he walks onto the field for warmups wearing a Lawrence Taylor jersey.    

Bob The Bookie (Joe’s old college buddy)

Detroit
at Minnesota -6

The Lions can score, score, score — and cover the spread.

Last week’s record: Ira 1-2; Joe 1-2; Bob the Bookie 1-2.

2022 Season Record: Ira 2-4; Joe 1-5; Bob The Bookie, 3-3.
