Nurse the Hate: Hate the NFL Week 14



When I was a kid my family had season tickets to the Buffalo Bills.  My father and I would drive up in December, my mother having abandoned the idea of it being fun sitting outside in Buffalo weather in the winter.  Intelligent lady that one... I spent many Sundays in December brushing snow off a steel bench seat and then literally freezing my ass off watching bad Bills teams lose low scoring games.  Every season trusty QB Joe Ferguson would sport All Pro stats in October and watch them fall away as the seasons changed.  It's a tough place to play.  It's not only that it is cold, but the stadium is a friggin wind tunnel.  Balls sail all over the place while the league's ugliest fans scream horrible things from their fur lined snowmobile suits.  It's a real scene.  That's why I'm on the Bills and their legit defense over the Packers this week. It's a weird game for Green Bay, and they are due for a let down.  At home versus New England?  Jacked up.  Jumping on a plane to play in Buffalo?  Oh, we have a game this week?  Buffalo + 4.5

There has been an insane amount of coverage on how JJ Watt and the Texans defense are mutants that rip off opponents scrotums and laugh at the writhing victims.  I have no doubt that The Public believes the Texans are going to hang close with the Colts this week.  I am not of that belief as I am clearheaded in my vision of Luck and Co. dropping 40 on the hapless Texans.  The Texans have looked OK of late, but only because they have played shitty teams at perfect times.  The Colts are a handful at home, and there is no way Houston can score enough points in this.  Indianapolis is 67-3 against the spread at home.  OK, that is a total lie, but they are pretty good at home, especially in division games.  Indy -6.5 all day.

Season record:  19-13-1
