1billsfan Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Who do you like? 213991[/snapback] I like them too. Vick too quick for the McNabb's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkady Renko Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 I like them too. Vick too quick for the McNabb's. 213996[/snapback] I like the upset too. I actually think the road teams will win in both, when was the last time that's happened? I think it did in '92 when the Bills beat Miami on the road and Dallas did the same in San Francisco. I figure it may have later on, but can't remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 History says the Eagles will fold, I think taking the points is the smart play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsGuyInMalta Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 I'm going with the Falcons tomorrow...Something about the way Vick and Dunn are just tearing apart defenses make me think they can do the same to Philly.

bartshan-83 Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Not if that damn snow falls. I know Vick has won in Lambeau, but I would not bet on him if he's playing the best team in the NFC and there is a foot of snow on the ground with subzero temps.

I think you'll probably be able to tell the outcome after the 1st Qtr though. Either the Eagles romp, or they get a tight collar in the 4th Qtr of a close game.

stevestojan Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Yet another teaser BEGGING to be bet: New England +3, and NE/Pitts UNDER 41. Now waaay that loses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevestojan Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Steelers are getting the points. I'm still taking the Pats, though. 214097[/snapback] I understand that the steelers are getting the points... I'm playing the teaser (you add 6 points to any two lines and bet 1:1) Thus, I like NewEngland +3 (normally NewEngland -3 but add six to that) and UNDER 41 (the O/U is 35, but add 6 to it)... Like I said, gimmee... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevestojan Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Sorry ... never played teasers, just individual games. 214106[/snapback] Oh man, I used to ALWAYS play individual games... This year I tried a teaser, and won, and then won again. I won SIX weeks in a row... that's normally unheard of... For those that usually only bet the single games, you should consider a teaser. You get 6 (sometimes 7, depends on the book) points on each of two bets. You have to win both, and the payout is only 1:1. But your odds of winning are quite a bit better with those 12 total points... So, let's look at the Falcons/Philly Game. Right now, It's Atlanta +5 (or Philly - 5) and the over/under is 38. I am not betting this game, but if I was, I would again go with a teaser. Take Philly +1 (you are now getting a team that is favored by 5 and actually GETTING points). And UNDER 44. (the weather is supposed to be nasty - 38 is even high, but 44? No way). Again, I like the NE game muuuuch better, though... With a teaser, though, you could take NE and the UNDER in the Philly game if you want... any two bets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB2004 Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Who do you like? 213991[/snapback] I could see the Falcons winning the game against the Eagles. Of course as history has taught us it could be the Steelers against the Falcons. Best bet, Patriots and Eagles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the hell has no one figured him out yet? I mean, his game plans seem to always be SIMPLE, but different from the week before... I refuse to root for NE, but it's not like the Bills... I will bet on the Pats... Pitts just isnt that good, are they??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark VI Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 I like the Falcons because they ran the ball all year while the Eagles went through the air. Weather may cancel the passing game. Turnovers will be the wildcard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
