Anyone else ready to pound SEATTLE -5 againt Minnesota?

jinxpro13 · 10-30-12, 09:06 AM

ready to pound it hard and deep

don't see ponder doing anything against seattle's D. AP will carry minnesota like always, but I will be taking seattle ML everywhere this weekend.

I like Seattle in this spot, I see the Vikings struggling on offense vs Seahawks D in this game, and the Seahawks offense is starting get better each game.

Pound it.

Anything over 7 I would beware. Russell Wilson has been iffy, a turnover could be the difference in the game.

RalphWayne · 10-30-12, 01:53 PM

playing in Seattle is the biggest advantage here. Ponder never been in that kind of environment yet

celtics3388 · 10-30-12, 02:53 PM

Certainly not taking Minnesota..

MobFade · 10-30-12, 03:04 PM

Hmm. Don't really like either team in this spot, but Seattle's WR depth has been depleted for this week. Baldwin and Obomanu questionable, Braylon doubtful leaves Sid, Golden, Charly Martin. It's been speculated that they bring Jermaine Kearse off the practice squad, or maybe sign Lockette off SF's practice squad if some of these guys can't go.

Agree that Ponder hasn't seen anything as intense as the CLink is on every down, but Seattle's D has had 2 weaknesses exposed in the last 2 weeks. SF ran the trap with unbelievable success, and the Seahawks D has been unspeakably bad on 3rd down.

Hawks-5 is a little too high for me right now, but I think they're the play on the ML or if this goes to -4 ... would wait to see where the money goes.

I am actually a resident of Seattle and a fan of the Hawks.

but i will be taking Minnesota with the points in this spot...

Love the game in a 12pt teaser, moved Minnie up to +17, Seattle doesn't have the offense to beat anyone by more than 10. From a straight play perspective I think -5 is a little high given the fact they do not score points easily and Vikes will be motivated.

17-13 Seattle

This game opened -3. You've already missed two key numbers. Squares will never learn..

So taking a 12 point teaser at +15 would have been better than at +17 because you're coming off +3 instead of +5? The penetrate?

If you like the dog, you obviously wait to see how far money will move it in your favor.

all over Seattle here. they were unlucky to lose to the lions last week

OK that makes sense, but even as a Seattle fan I think -5 is too much. I don't think Minny is enough of a public team to get to even 5.5, and sharp action probably comes in on Minny as well. I see this line closing at 4.5.

eatdarich · 10-31-12, 10:31 AM

I'm on Minny with the points.....Too much to give up to a decent Minny team that is well rested!!!!

freakydave · 10-31-12, 10:48 AM

Seattle has won 1 game by more than 5 & in that game they were 3 point home dogs.I wouldn't lay 5 pts with seattle vs anyone.

shockey43 · 10-31-12, 11:53 AM

I'm teasing the under on this one to 46. Seattle shuts teams down at home and they don't score much themselves. This game will probably be a dog fight, don't see to many points being scored here

What books was the -3 available?
How long was it available for?

Good Luck getting that 3 for majority of posters here.

bigsmitty · 10-31-12, 01:12 PM

This originally seemed great for SEA and I do think they'll win but I don't think they'll cover. They have the defense and ability to chew up the clock so if I had to I would probably take MIN and the points but the best bet is probably to stay off.

I said two key numbers. Missing the 3 is understandable to a point, but what excuse is there to wait until it's -5?

Or if you feel like the line will go down you take it at what you think is the highest..... Not rocket science

tripled83 · 10-31-12, 07:24 PM

I like Seattle but 5 points seems like a lot here against a decent Vikings team.

shocka1212 · 10-31-12, 08:46 PM

5 points seems like alot.. but christian ponder has been stinking it up

Outhouse Tim · 10-31-12, 11:16 PM

Careful. Seattle has not been a HF all year. They have a rookie QB. Seattle WILL cover if they force turnovers with their solid D. Beyond that, not much separates these teams.

hockeynut · 10-31-12, 11:20 PM

I find this line as one of the strangest of the week. I'd have it as -2 or 3 at best. -5 is too much for this matchup IMO. I expect the Vikings to cover here.
