RED's Week 1 Discussion (lets talk it out)

[Chicago RED]

Lets cap some games guys, this is what I have up on the radar so far and just some thoughts, rants, raves etc..

On The Radar

GB-3 I think GB is gonna be super strong this year, they may even go all the way. They have a mean ass Offense. But the one thing that has bothered me with this game is the line, it just seems to good to be true.
In the last 10 games in this series PHI is 6-4 and GB has not won a game on the road Vs. PHI. Since 1997 PHI has been 5-0 at home Vs. GB. <-- Is this one stat enough to take away from what I and most are thinking is a sure thing?

NE-4 Brady and the Pats at home, this one just looks tasty. I know NE lost one of there best Defensive players this year. Brady has to re-sign a contract soon as well. I see NE coming out strong in this one, I know for a fact that NE will be one of the teams that will allow a lot of points this year. I also know that not many will be able to stop Brady from bombing that ball down Field, Does not matter how great the D is, Brady gets it done. I Think Vs. CIN we are gonna see a offensive show down, But CIN will not be able to keep up with NE.

SD-4.5 O/45 To me this game may be great for a teaser, san dog should take it SU with ease Can see some points here as well from KC, San dog allowed pts last year and I do not think I will see much of a change this year. Strongly considering teasing San dog and the over 6-7pts should be good.

Strong considerations, Thoughts, Guesses. etc..

PIT ML +115 <--Dixon may have enough, and we know there D does.

DEN +3 O/40 <--They can blow this or hit it (maybe tease) or lay off

IND-2 Just don't know about this, which Indy will show up to play. Also Manning is getting picked off a little more then he has been. Tough call. Indy may not be as great as most think this year, or they do have the skill and ability to be everything and more, I do not think they will be playing hungry this year, but I could be very wrong & I may just eat those words.

SF-3 San Fran knows eats & sleeps football. This is a hungry team with nothing to lose. Look for them to possibly have a little better season then 8-8 this year. They may even win 10+ San Fran will be better then most think this year.

STL+4 Kinda like the hungry home dog here Vs. an ARI team that just don't have it all together.

BAL +2.5 U/35.5 This one may be worth a 7.5-10pt Teaser BAL + pts and the under.

Very solid reasoning, cant disagree with any of what you said.

[FalconFreak]

thanks for all that info, all looks reasonable and I am to dam lazy to dig it out

[Chicago RED]

Any other games, info, or write ups, anyone else wants to add. Lets get it all talked out and out in the open before Week 1 starts.

I like N.O Over 48. Thoughts?

Thursday seemed to be one of the toughest games on the board at first glance, but now due to line movement the game becomes more clear to me.

I see it like this: Father time may have just caught up with father time himself. Farve wanted to go out with one more win in the big show. But I feel that last year was his year and he got stopped & abused bad towards the end of last season.

MIN wants there revenge here, even though this game will not be a blowout, I do see NO taking it down. Look for Farve to be a little rusty and make some mistakes early on.

Looking at a saints 24-21 Win. Teasing this and taking the Saints +1 or 2 and the Over of 41-42 may be a good wager. However I must say I do not like betting the Super Bowl Champs in the first game of the season.

INDIANAPOLIS AND SAN DIEGO will lose the first road game IMO.

Any reasoning or writeup's behind these two predictions Earl? Just so we could everyone a couple different view points on some of these games.

[Chicago RED]

Also if anyone wants to add some other games that I did not mention in my original post feel free to jump in. The goal of this thread is to talk out the games and get a couple different opinions on how games will go on Sunday. So lets try to make this thread jam packed with information for everyone to reference on for Sunday.

[Earl]

If I had more time I would explain. But i will give you what I have in mind on why. Just can't do it tonight I have to work tomorrow.
