Last week was a great week straight up but disastrous against the spread. In fact, we’ve been pretty poor against the spread all season. If you took all our bets collectively, you’d be missing a finger or two by now. But, like every good gambler, we know that being above water is just around the corner.

This week features some great matchups: Cowboys at Ravens, Giants at Niners, and Packers at Texans. We’re particularly looking forward to whether Victor Cruz bitch slaps Carlos Rogers for disrespecting the memory of his meemaw. (Yeah, it’s gotten that personal.)

RJ is cruising around the Bahamas with some models after hitting a hot streak at party bingo so Mike Ciccarone steps in for him this week on the show.

Locks of the Week

Vegas Vinny: (1-3-1, Balance=$880) Apprarently, nobody wants to do weekly Lock write ups anymore. And I can’t blame them. It’s hard to come back from a tough loss and have any faith in what you’re saying about a game being a lock. If taking Denver over New England last week wasn’t enough of a departure from the norm, I’m going full slumpbuster this week.

Take the ugliest game you can find and put money on it. This week that game is Bill at Cardinals. What happens when you spend all your money on upgrading your defense and end up the worst defense in your conference? Buffalo is what happens. I’m not on the Cardinals bandwagon, especially when they have no running game and Kevin Kolb ends up on his ass after 1/2 of his snaps. But I know ugly when I see it and the Bills are ugly and we still haven’t discussed the offense. $110 to win $100 on the Cardinals (-4.5)

BostonMac: (3-2, Balance=$865) $55 to win $50 on the Seahawks (+3.5)

RJ: (1-4, Balance=$830) $110 to win $100 on the Giants (+6.5)

Burton: (0-5, Balance=$0) $110 to win $100 on the Browns (+1)

Mike: (2-1-1, Balance=$1045) $55 to win $50 on the Ravens (-3.5)

Trevor: (3-1, Balance=$200)
