Default Norm Hitzges - Redskins maybe a "triple play"

OUCH. Norm just said Redskins may be his first triple play pick of the year over the Cowboys.

Cowboys are a 3 point favorite this Thursday. The line started at -6 for the Cowboys. O/U started at 46.

He implied that the Redskins will win, win by >3 points and maybe the combined point total will be > 47.5 points?

Not sure on the 3rd one.

dont think that what this means..but i could be wrong..

not only do the redskins not have to win..they just have to lose by less than 3

with that said, a triple play for norm probably just means that he likes it a lot..a single is probably something he semi likes..like a lean..a double play probably means he likes it enough to bet it..and a triple play is probably his biggest play so to speak, like a game of the year type of situation

When you listen to his picks he'll say "TEAM minus the points" or "TEAM plus the points". In my feeble gambling knowledge, the first is a single play, second is a double play.

I could be, and probably am, wrong.

And we are supposed to care what Norm says because why? I like his show, could care less about his picks of the poll.

Pole*. He's Polish.

He puts a lot of time into gambling odds and has weekly picks. He has a somewhat good track record this year. It's still interesting considering he does his research more than probably any of us on here.

Bottom.

He does none of that research. His interns and the other guys on the show do it all for him. My dad used to bet college and pro games using his picks because he was fascinated with how much he thought he knew. Never more than broke even over his years.

I dunno.

Win by more than 3 in the over is 3 single best in one. Of course, winning satisfies the straight up and the spread bets provided you pick the underdog.

Simply covering the spread and covering over is only 2 bets.

I think robert might be right.

Breaking even is pretty good against Vegas spreads.

I've never seen a post on here referencing anything positive Norm has to say about the Cowboys. Is he like the local Ed Werder???
