cardinals / rams thoughts?

tripled83 · 10-03-12, 04:25 AM

yes take the cardinals. truly undervalued. i say cardinals 27-12

If the Cards are -1 at game time bet them, if the line moves to -2.5 or more no bet.

The Cardinals can't run the ball at all, and the Rams have one of the best secondaries in the NFL. Arizona is already one dimensional and will have to attack St Louis at their greatest defensive strength, which should make it tough to score. The Rams have had a tough time offensively as well, however with Steven Jackson playing through a groin injury all season, he's been limited. That being said, he had his best game of the season against the stingy Seahawk defense and I think this is his week to right the ship.

i got a feeling they are going to run thier streak to 7-0 till they run into 49ers or packers, i think they win this convincbly, people keep saying they are on the road so not much rest here and there, both defense is pretty good and i believe cards O-line is better but both obviously cant run the ball. the only worry is the kicker for rams which they hope will pull of the win, hopefully cards can get a touchdown or two and the kicker wont be relevant at that point

Home town team wins this, some say home field is not that important, I disagree in this game.
Crowd will be fired up, it'll be playoff atmosphere, Rams can go to 3 and 2 and become a player in that divison.
Kolb very well could get picked twice, and Bradford while still developing, ain't exactly chopped liver.

Early money is on the undefeated team, I'll play Peter Contrarian here and go the other way.

Home boys for me, nothing big, but Rams for the win.

ermzzy · 10-03-12, 09:23 AM

this one is going to be the toughest to call of the week for sure if not the whole season!

Agreed....Has the makings of a 17-13, 13-10 type Rams win.

OVER UNDERS IS now 39.5 it shouts TAKE THE UNDER let hope not so many mess ups like what tony romo did on monday which could have easily gone UNDER if it wasnt for all his mess ups

tripled83 · 10-03-12, 01:54 PM

Rams havent scored an offensive td in over 2 weeks. how bad does a team need to be before people admit how bad they are? cardinals easily.

skeetmasterc · 10-03-12, 02:15 PM

Rams ml

And you expect this for another 14 consecutive weeks?

What has betting the NFL taught us in the past, I don't know, 1000 years?

The obvious is hardly the play

pokerwhiz90 · 10-03-12, 04:13 PM

Under is the play - either Arizona's defense dominates and they win that way, or they both struggle and the Rams etch out a win

Dark Horse · 10-03-12, 06:12 PM

Staying sharp is the biggest challenge now for Cards. A loss here and there helps with that. Of course, they were going to be sharp for the home opener, and for the next two games against the Patriots and Eagles. But the next three games on the schedule? Miami, St Louis, and Buffalo. Easy to soften up. They played poorly against Miami, but won anyway. The win means there was no wake-up effect, so I doubt they'll be back to high intensity against St. Louis and would expect more of the same. Bottomline. High intensity Cards? No contest. Easy going Cards? St Louis.

this is as funny as the clown who said seachickens would score 42 last week..not sure if ya'll just not paying attention or what but lambs d is pretty damn good, only way zona sniffs 27 is with 2 special teams tds and the way patterson abused lambs last yr i think it a safe bet to assume he wont get many touches...

never easy with lambs bro....that def the side tho..

alamo · 10-03-12, 11:27 PM

Arizona on paper but then this game doesnt get played on paper.

agharah1 · 10-04-12, 12:24 AM

Bad offenses, good defenses, short week. So naturally the over is the play.

yep probably right..i play 1st half under on every thur night gm as they nothing but nfl cash grab shitfest but i like them a lot better when it teams more known for offense,,,figure this be the 1st one i lose on the yr but i play them all as i believe it a season long winner so i guess i cant pick and choose...

Siresco · 10-04-12, 02:13 AM

For some reason im leaning Rams And the Over. No Spread on 5Dimes each team is a pick.

Bbfromgpt · 10-04-12, 06:06 AM

Under and Rams Sharp!

Bbfromgpt · 10-04-12, 06:29 AM

Thing that worries me is since week 12 of last year the Cards are the best in the nfl record wise at 9-1

aufordboy · 10-04-12, 07:48 AM

Playing the Cards for a small play....leaning towards the over as well.

Snowball · 10-04-12, 08:28 AM

Arizona has a horseshoe up their butt.
I don't think the Rams are the team that pulls it out.
Sticking with the undefeated Arizona to roll onward for now.

And yet they were only 6-4 ATS. Hardly dominate.

theangryelf · 10-04-12, 09:02 AM

Rams Ml for me as well/ leaning the over too

Bbfromgpt · 10-04-12, 09:18 AM

If rams are in it or win it it goes under

PRIMO99 · 10-04-12, 09:37 AM

arizona.....
But more importantly kevin kolb

is the worse 4-0 team ive seen in nfl history....

For arizona to win this game there +/- differential will have to be +1 or more

guaran fu*king teeeeeeeeed

pokerwhiz90 · 10-04-12, 01:48 PM

guys its not going to be a blow out, a 3 point game and low scoring... just tease arizona and under for your smart folks

Clutchy · 10-04-12, 02:06 PM

I still think the Cards win this. STL won last week by a fake field goal. They can't put up enough points on O to beat the cards.

Final score 17-9 Cards.

This game will be ugly.

definitely agree, key matchup is the poor oline of the rams vs top 10 dlines of the cardinals - everything else, you can't really count on

OTL · 10-04-12, 02:15 PM

This is a dream matchup for the Rams. A team that can't run the ball vs their formidable pass defence. Kolb overdue for some turnovers. Game will be tight but I think the Rams take care of their home-field here.

I`m playing 1st half under, small amount though, and Rams +2.
