Vegas Here I Come! Liking My Chances Sat & Sun Playoff Games

[Drunken Monk]

Getting ready to head to Vegas for tomorrow's and Sunday's games!

Sat. Games:

Seattle Seahawks+8 (10 units) Everyone say that Hawks cant play in cold weather, no running game, road record and weak division. (all are true)
But, its play off time. Seattle went in CHicago last year as 11 pts underdog
in 20 degree weather and played pretty well and finally lost in OT by a fg.
Seattle defence is alot better this year with Kerney at the end and 2 probowler LB and some decent Corners.
Branch is back to spread the offense with 3 other WRs, not sure how GB
can cover all 4 with a bannged up CB that they have.
Favre is 2-6 in the play off with 17 INT in that span, with a rating of 58.7
(Can you say Ryan Leaf type of performance)

JAX+13.5 ( 4 units) This game is hard to figure out, NE might be exposed with recent teams playing them tight, i know maybe Pats are waiting to unload more fire power this Sat and step up on defense but i think Jags can throw punches back, i dont see how they can cover this game. 16-0 is now in jeopardy!!
Jax secondary scares me, giving up tons of yards playing PIttsburg last week.
If Jax can run the ball and keep Brady off the field, i think Jax have a small
chance of winning outright!! Liking the points here!!


San Diego+9 ( 4 Units) Iam hearing that Gates might not play and Harrison is back for Indy. Public is all over Indy now, by game time. I will be leaning towards SD. My original teaser 3 i placed couple days ago, I picked Indy -2.5 to win. So hopefully if it lands between 4-8, i will win both bets.


NY Giants + 7.5 (4 units) Romo is not himself lately, I dont blame him for having Jessica cleans his pipe right in the middle of the play off in Cabo (wouldnt you?) I just think its bad timing to head to a vacation spot right before a big game.But his 1-7 Int in 3 weeks is terrible.
Giants defence line is under rated, i think the front 4 will rattle Romo and he will make some bad throws, which will lead into Turn overs.
NY Giants are 8-1 on the road this year!! that is a very impressive record regardless who you played. liking the points here.

So taking 4 dogs this weekend!!
2 might win out right!!

Here is my 3 team teaser i placed earlier (10 units)

Team 1 NFL [101] SEATTLE +14-110 Jan-12 16:30

Team 2 NFL [106] INDIANAPOLIS -2½-110 Jan-13 13:00

Team 3 NFL [107] NY GIANTS +13½-110 Jan-13 16:30

Risking $500 To Win $850


Best of Luck Everyone!!!

im going the same way with all but one pick. seattle is to good to get lown out and i think they actually have a pretty good shot at winning this one. th packers are young and as you said banged up at corner. the toughest one to choose is the cowboys giants game but im looking at this one as hot vs. cold. the cowboys have lost focus and at owens is not at 100%. eli has gained some confidence the last couple of days and he tore apart a pretty good bucs pass d. and i also agree with the jaxonville pick, not just because the way the pats have played close but beause jone-drew and taylor will both have big days. pats win by a td.

as for the one i dont agree on and think you are crazy for not laying it all on the colts. the colts should have won when harrison didnt play and manning threw 5 ints, neither of which are going to happen. the colts are halthy and have a defense that is capable of shutting the chargers out.

good luck tho.

sorry fellas. Happen to think that Green Bay is the best play of the weekend. Pub loving up Seattle driving the line down. Packer-backers wait until game-time and get it at 7.

colts will cover

Favre will need better protection, slant pass will not work all day.
Kerney,Tatupu and Petersen will be all over Favre(can you say INT?)

Maurice Morris takes over running game for Alexander!!

Hawks rolls !! lol

[bigpink74]

hawks on the road vs favre in one of his last chances.

hawks can't even beat the cardinals consistently on the road. they back into the playoffs every year since nfc west sucks. and ryan grant is the number 2 rusher over the 2nd half of the season. pack all day

i've learned one thing about the hawks last few seasons never take them on the road.
