Thats a 1-5-1 stretch for the Korner over the last two weeks. I’m going to stick to saving my Saturday plays for PaidForPlay live every Saturday at 10:30eastern. We’re on Twitter @ PaidForPlay or on Youtube under DailyBreadMedia. I’ll keep on keeping on but remember, you have a choice to #FlockUp or #FadeTheKorner !

Rutgers +3 vs Nebraska o/u 49
The Play: Rutgers +3
Call me a homer! This line is wrong though. Nebraska beat Indiana and now they are back? Indiana trailed Idaho 10-0 at half, they had to take Western Kentucky to overtime. This Nebraska team fired their coach already and I don’t care who it is against, I don’t see how they are road favorites vs any B1G team, let alone a night game. Rutgers is starting to settle in. Evan Simon hasn’t been good but he’s been serviceable and has not been the problem. The reason Rutgers will win this game is the run game on both sides. Samuel Brown V is a budding star. The Freshman rushed for 79 yards on 15 carries vs Ohio State last week. The new offensive line needed a few weeks to gel, and Brown needed to be caught up to speed. On the other side, Anthony Grant has been explosive, but Rutgers has a tough run defense when they aren’t outsized by Iowa lineman. Nebraska will rip off more explosive plays than Rutgers, but the opportunistic defense knows how to capitalize on mistakes and Nebraska has shown it knows how to mess up. Rutgers has won its two close games by a combined 3 points, while Nebraska has lost two games by a combined 6 points. Rutgers is better coached, has an opportunistic defense, and lets not forget they have Adam Korsak a punt GAWD.
Rutgers 26 Nebraska 24

Jets +3.5 vs Dolphins o/u 46
The Play: Jets +3.5
I’ve been very high on the Dolphins this season, going 2-0 with them on the Korner. You’re giving me a field goal on a home divisional team vs a backup quarterback in Teddy Bridgewater and I have to take the Jets. That’s how much respect I have for Tua’s game, and I’ve been a Teddy Bridgewater fan. Teddy can place a ball well, but doesn’t have the arm to reach these speed demons. The Jets are healthy and riding high. Zach Wilson was inaccurate but it was big he delivered a win last week vs the Steelers. Breece Hall is looking comfier by the week and the receivers didn’t miss a beat with Wilson. I’m putting my faith that with Teddy in instead of Tua that Sauce Gardner can make plays on either Ty Hill or Jaylen Waddle. Sauce has been great but this matchup is another beast. With the Dolphins still working through some run game struggles I think the Jets got them at the perfect time.
Jets 23 Dolphins 21

Browns +2.5 vs Chargers o/u 47.5
The Play: Browns +2.5
The Chargers did a lot in the off season to improve their run defense but I still don’t like the unit. Now they have to go on the road to play the best backfield duo in the league. The Browns are led by Nick Chubb who is having his best year so far in his career. They had two tough losses but really could be 4-0. The Browns scored 3 points in two drives where they had the ball on the 1 yard line. They over thought it and did not give Chubb the rock. This time around I’m confident Chubb gets fed. The Chargers still have Keenan Allen banged up and he is questionable on Sunday. Austin Ekeler broke out vs the Texas but wasn’t explosive the first three weeks. The Texans are also the worst run defense so like Ekeler needed that breakout. The Browns are playing the Chargers at the right time, and they’ll have the Dawg Pound to back them up.
