    The Rams opened the week as a 12 1/2-point favorite. A Rams team that has been down by 20-plus points in three straight games. That tells you how bad Jacksonville is. Or at least how bad Vegas thinks Jacksonville is.

    Because the Seahawks are just going to give everyone a heads up as to when he will be back?

    And they have earned seven Pulitzer Prizes. Sports might not be their strong suit, but they tend not to sling shit.

    Shoot, the Rams only need to score 17 to cover. Is it possible this is the first game in NFL history to end with a 4-2 score?

    Meanwhile, the early line on Jags-Broncos is Broncos by 26 :eek:

    I saw 28, according to an SI tweet.

    Story had that tweet, but it looks like it was a bit premature, or what a different book might still offer.

    You have to wonder if the DEN-JAX spread goes even higher if Denver blows out the Cowboys this weekend.

    Not sure. I haven't checked the scores yet. Was hoping to check the Christian Science Monitor later to find out how I did. I mean, they have won seven Pulitzer Prizes.

    Seriously, dude. What the fuck is wrong with you?

    Unfunny people shouldn't make jokes.

    A 26 point spread on a NFL game is insane. I'm surprised it never got close to that with the 2007 Pats.

    It did. I think their game against the Eagles got up around 24.
