the cross country thing has nothing to do with whether a team plays the week before or not...it has to do with having to take a five hour flight and travel three time zones to play an nfl game

ah...so they are parachuting in during the national anthem. yep, they may be tired.

it's the first time someone of these people have even seen an airplane.

again....and ill go slowly this time...i am talking about betting here...not the real world...and the fact that there is a 3-0 home dog vs a opposite coast team this week throws up many red flags

Wingspan · September 26, 2006, 12:36:12 PM

except you're leaving football analysys out of this...so 3-0 could be 0-3 and it doesnt matter.

Like, for instance, that the Ravens really aren't that good? I could have told you that.

i'm not touching that game, it's a toss up to me. i think the ravens could easily win though. people underestimate how good of a QB Drew Brees is. Rivers is no Brees.

all that stuff means nothing

find me the last time a team predicted to go to the playoffs started out 3-0 and was an underdog at home against an opposite coast team who isnt anything special

ill bet its never happened

could the ravens win sure...but this line points so far towards the chargers its not even funny....chargers +2 = stone cold LOCK!

lead piper of the weekend

giants -4.5

no way the skins should be getting that many points against what should be a winless giant team

PoopyfaceMcGee · October 06, 2006, 08:24:38 AM

So, whenever a line seems out of whack to you, you bet the OTHER (meaning the less obvious) way, because you assume there's something the oddsmakers know that the general public doesn't?

Personally, I think the Giants are all set if they can find a way to cover Santana Moss. Meaning I'd probably put my money on the skins to at least cover the spread, because the best answer the Giants have for Moss is R.W. McQuarters. That's a whole world of hurt.
