First of all, I wouldn't stretch parlays out beyond 2 or 3 picks. The odds are against you, heavily. Parlays are cool as a side bet if you already have straight picks - then, when you actually hit a bunch of picks, you get a nice bonus.

Not sure if you were talking to me but it looks like you were...nowhere in my post did I say I had a parlay. Apologies if you were referring to someone else but the last few posts were from me so it looks like you misread my post.

I only make individual bets.

Winner Indy -1.5: I'll take Peyton -1.5 all day
Winner Tenn +4.5: This might be crazy....I hate Vince Young and have a weird fascination with Houston but a divisional game on Monday night...I'm going with Tennessee to cover....
Winner Philly -3: McNabb going back to the city he was born and raised in...DJAX is gonna torch the Bears secondary.
Loser Indy/Balt Over 44 I won with Indy and the over last week....Baltimore can score...(In before famous last words:) This is a lock!

Wow...I love when the lines are exactly where they should be...Colts by 2!

Tennessee won outright.
Philly squeaked it out (and DJAX indeed torched 'em)
Indy/Balt didn't turn into the high scoring affair I had envisioned.

3-1 on the week improves me to 17-9 on the year.

that was so bad

Pats vs Saints tonite
I think NE will be victorious

NE was far from victorious.

They looked like they had their heads on backwards.

Bad coaching decisions & poor execution from the players as well.
