Cousin Sal

I was watching late night sportscenter this morning trying to see who won the game last night and just generally catch the highlights.  (I am 9 hours ahead of EST)

One of the segments was game predictions by o bookie (I guess that is what he does) named Cousin Sal.  He was talking about who to take this weekend and this guy made every other talking head sound like they knew what they were talking about.

He told the fans to pick Jacksonville because Carolina's defense was a mess and Cam didn't have anyone to throw to.  Maybe the latter is an acceptable comment but to say our defense is a mess just blew my mind.

A mess? Really

He was picking against the spread (I think he had it -4) not necessarily saying the Jaguars would win. Honestly he was on fire last year with his picks and rarely missed.

The one key thing he mentioned was that the Panthers were something like 1-7 as road favorites (I can't remember the exact number). That definitely comes into play when betting spreads which is all it was about. I could see the Jags keeping it within 4 and so do a lot of other people because the line has moved to -3.

    • We don't have to tear down Dak to appreciate what Bryce did yesterday. Dak had 0 running game. If the cowboys were better, he'd be a legit MVP candidate if he keeps playing this way.  They did it with Ceedee last year, but they do a better job of anybody we play consistently of getting their best receiver off Jaycee.  Bryce was good too. If we just catch the ball that was intercepted, we probably win by 7+, and Bryce goes over 200 yards passing.  Biggest shift the last few weeks has been play calling. I thought Canales abandoned the run game way to early at times last year. This year he really seems to be sticking with it.  I still think Chuba is better at making 4 yards when there's nothing there, but Rico is better at making 30 yards when there's 6 there. I like the direction. Hopefully we can get Moton, Sanders and Coker back and really be dangerous. Our play action game is pretty deadly right now.  Unrelated: My favorite quality about Bryce right now is his ability to see the defensive hold and throw the ball there. He EXPOSES the officials when they don't call it. That one on Tetaroia yesterday late in the game was a bad miss on their part. 
    • That sacks allowed number lookin juicy!  
    • This is a game the Panthers should win... just the sort of game they lose. The Panthers have a bad habit that goes back years of playing down to the competition's level only to mess around and lose the game. The Jets game should be taken very seriously! But I want to enjoy the fact that they beat the Cowboys for at least another day or so!
