    Agreed. When the Texans learn touchdowns are always better than field goals, they'll be OK. They're not at the point yet where they can expect the defense to take care of things while the field goals add up.

    Good ol' PK picked 6 teams to win with a score of 23 or 24. He sure does put a lot of thought into those things.

    It will be half of a shoo-in for the Texans now that the dead weight of Slaton is gone.

    It will be an entire shoo-in if the rest of the dead weight called Kareem Jackson doesn't start.

    It would be pretty damn awesome to watch Texas beat the Steelers.

    ... Liesl being a huge Longhorns fan, of course, and someone who knows the NFL team playing Pittsburgh would, in fact, be the Houston Texans.

    Two-team teaser...New Orleans to -1.5 and Pittsburgh +10.

    That's a lock, right? RIGHT???

    The Burgh is double-digit favorite over the Texans? What?
    I'd bet the house on the Texans.

    Don't teasers usually adjust the line?

    Also, a line with Pittsburgh +10 would mean that the Steelers are the underdog, not the favorite.

    Pittsburgh is a four-point dog currently. A teaser would adjust it 6 points.

    Teasers are sucker bets ... Gotta win 2 picks for even money. Better off doing an action-reverse.

    Parlays are better but you need so much luck.

    The guy from the Snickers commercial apparently painted the field in Jacksonville today. The arrows alongside the yard markers are pointing the wrong way.
    Maybe Del Rio figured if they did that, the Saints' offense would have to go twice as far?
