Burnie’s Weekend Slate

2 – 2 thus far this week is not exactly what we’re looking for, but hey, I lost my underdog in the Stars, and Jake’s over missed on Thursday night along with EVERY Minshew pass attempt. So we’re .500 going into this fucking slaughtering that will be taking place in Miami tonight. I got a couple butthurt Noles fans hitting my line concerning my passion on this Miami -11. Boo Hoo. Jimbo is getting paid 100 mil to coach SEC football and your program is in the shitter. You know what’s more important than that bullshit, average ACC matchup? The king. Izzy Adesanya is stepping into the octagon and he’s only -175. THIS MAN IS A FUCKING KILLER. If Izzy somehow loses to Paulo Costa (who is an undefeated fighter himself) the entire week is fucked. Izzy -175. He’s a god. I’m thinking Izzy by TKO by the middle of the 3rd or it goes the distance. So slap the over on the championship bout as well.

Adesanya (-175)  O 2.5 (-134)

Now it’s time for football Sunday baby. Jake and I have some disagreements on picks this week so, for the first time, our records will be different, and you can start the ride or fade train on either of us… Please fade me, I actually prefer it.

Rams v Bills →    Bills -2 (Burnham)           Rams (+105) ML (Jake) 

Josh Allan could be a fucking MVP. Call me an idiot. Kid is a fucking monster. Jakespicks.com will be taking Rams ML which is ballsy, and I think he fell in love with what he saw last week against a shitty Philly team. Love, Love, Love the Bills coming out the AFC this year. The Ravens are obviously the favorite, but I think this Bills team could give them a run down the stretch. I feel about as comfortable with my pick as McVay does taking off his shirt in front of a Hard Knocks camera crew. Pumped to test the slogan “Don’t Fade Jake.” 

Texans v Steelers → Steelers (-210) ML

Buy the points to make it 3 maybe I don’t know. I think this could be the closest game of the week. The Texans really aren’t very good. I like the Steelers to go deep this season and even with JJ playing well on the defensive side of the ball for the first time in 3 fucking years, Will Fuller is not a WR1 and Desean Watson gets sacked so fucking much. I’m predicting 4+ sacks for what in my eyes is the best defense in the league.

Seahawks v Cowboys → 55.5 U

I’m very afraid of this game though I LOVE the Hawks this season and hate America’s team every season. This is just a scary bet. I think 55.5 is PREPOSTEROUS. Everyone just wants this game to be a huge points game. The Seahawks run D actually isn’t bad though their secondary has underperformed and their pass rush is now nonexistent. And before anyone chirps me for taking an under kiss my feet. I don’t like doing it, okay. But I have to.

Vikings v Titans →   Titans -2.5 (Burnham)     Vikings +2.5 (Jake)

Sooooo… We’re fading again. Jakespicks.com is quite adamant on this one as well. My problem with his pick is Kirk. I’m unsure if Jake watched Kirk Cousins throw the football last week, but he is definitely not an Adam Theilin fantasy owner. Well I am Jake; and I am also VERY high on this Tennessee team – their defense especially.

Packers v Saints → Packers +3

Wow. There are just so many good games this week and it is just absolutely horny. So its no surprise that Jake’s mortal lock of the week has come about. As you’ve already read the kids are taking the Packer’s points. I mean what do we have to explain here. The pick speaks for itself. If you’re betting Pack this week it means a few things. You’re In love with both Aaron’s  thus far, and you along with the rest of the world are convinced that Brees has a baby arm. Buddy thinks he’s playing catch in the backyard with his prepubescent sons. Literally haven’t seen Drew throw a ball more than 20 yards this season, and MT is supposedly out this week so… I like it Jake. Don’t fade I guess.
