CRAZY NFL PARLAY: WEEK 10

BY ADAM GREENE

We wrap the week leading up to our NFL Sunday the way we always do, with a handcrafted gift of the perfect Crazy NFL Parlay.

If this is the first time you’ve stumbled upon our little scientific experiment here, let me tell you how it works. This isn’t some random group of plus moneylines. There are no blindfolds, tails, donkeys, dart boards or cornholes involved here. We are purposefully scanning the odds, lines and totals to craft the biggest payout for the lowest possible risk.

We’re taking the cash you’d drop on a breakfast crunchwrap meal at Taco Bell and turning into a Kawasaki Jet Ski. The NFL has a saying, “any given team can win on any given Sunday” and it’s proven every week.

Last week the Chargers, Commanders, Vikings and Raiders all made it happen. The universe’s natural state is entropy. Chaos is a regular occurrence so why not monetize it? Let’s rope this whirlwind and use it to craft a Scrooge McDuck-ian money bin that we can swim through in an old timey bathing suit. That’s the dream. I’m not willing to let it go just yet.

Here’s what I’ve picked out for you this week;

New England Patriots +110

Cleveland Browns +239

Houston Texans +240

Jacksonville Jaguars +146

Minnesota Vikings +135

Arizona Cardinals +110

Los Angeles Chargers +135

Washington Commanders +245

If you’ve read my Friday Afternoon Quarterback, Sunday Night Football and Monday Night Football previews, then you know a like a lot of these “upsets” for real. I hate it as much as anyone, but I think the Patriots will knock off the Indianapolis Colts in front of a bunch of drunken Germans Sunday morning. The Jaguars and Doug Pederson have the talent and the team to exploit the suddenly mortal San Francisco 49ers in Jacksonville. I feel the Vikings will have more than enough in the tank at home to handle a lackluster New Orleans Saints team. I like Kyler Murray to show up in a big way for the Cardinals and help wrap up Arthur Smith’s tenure with the Atlanta Falcons. Lastly, the Chargers have the offense, and now defense, to take care of business against a Detroit Lions team making a west coast trip. 

It’s the other games we need to talk ourselves into, so let’s do it.

Deshaun Watson wasn’t brought into Cleveland to boost the local massage-based economy. He was brought in to sign the worst contract in NFL history and beat teams like the Baltimore Ravens.

The Texans can score, play defense and are building something special. It’s the exact type of trap game that can catch the Cincinnati Bengals looking ahead a week.

The Commanders offense has proven, under offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy, that they can score points with pretty much anyone. They’re facing a Seattle Seahawks team that’s such a paper champion you could fold them into an origami swan.

A $10 winning bet on this eight-game parlay pays $23,813.59.
