    If you don't take Giants -7, you need to bet a different sport
    Once again, we are supposed to believe that an over-hyped team will challenge the Giants in their home battle cage. The media is in love with the Joe Flacco story, but he is about to get his ass thumped by Kiwanuka and Tuck. They will swarm this rook an initiate him into the NFC East.

    The Ravens are supposed to have a great run defense but they still lost all three games versus good competition!! Brandon Jacobs was not supposed to be able to tear through Phili last week, but he did. He wasn't supposed to be able to tear through Pittsburgh, but he did. The Cowboys were supposed to stop him, they couldn't.

    Versus the top 16 NFL teams this year (Sagarin)
    Giants are 4-0
    Ravens are 0-3

    -Giants are 10-1 ATS vs teams with a winning record.

    -This year the Giants are averaging 30 ppg at home , and only giving up 13 ppg.

    GIVE ME A FU***NG BREAK, LINESMAKERS! You guys make me want to puke for this outrage to sportsbettors. Kill yourselves.

    Giants 27
    Ravens 13

    not saying your not right about the giants winning but i think your post is a little misleading, particularly when you say he tore through pittsburgh, 47 yards is hardly considered tearing through a defense in my opinion. Im also not sure he was suppose to be stopped by dallas, i mean steven jackson tore them up, why would they magically play good run defense against the giants. Again, im not saying your wrong, but i think your underestimating the ravens, also keep in mind flacco is a rookie, so you can either use the theory :
    1. He'll suck against a good defense with a good pass rush
    2. He's gotten better over time and he can at least compete with a good defense

    I personally think this game will show flashes of both, he'll get sacked and it'll limit the ravens points cuz those are drive killers, but if he hangs onto the ball when he gets hit it should be a close game in the end

      i'd lean ravens in this game, but i think its safer to just not bet it either way. i think a much better wager would be to bet the over
      2011 NFL: 4-0 ATS
      2010 NFL: 21-31 ATS (Stopped after Week 12)
      2009 NFL: 55-30-1 ATS
      2008 NFL: 57-36-2 ATS

      Overall: 137-97-3 ATS

            Not too sure how you are so confident this will happen? If Pittsburgh held him to 47 yards (although he split carries with Ward), and the only team with better run defense than PIT is the Ravens, then ?????? I see a NY cover, but by throwing the ball not running it.

            Maybe you're a Giants fan?

                  im not debating ur pick, i really have no side in this game, im just wondering why u thought giants ripped steelers in the running game with those stats i provided to u? it wasnt even close to being ripped, in fact if u watched the game jacobs was very pissed and whinning on the sidelines as he got jacked up a few times during the game

                        again disagree.

                        Ravens are better than people give them credit for, just like the Eagles.

                        Lean for me is Ravens +7

                        The Steelers owned Jacobs and the only team better than Pittsburgh at stopping the run is Baltimore.

                            especially betting sides on saturday's numbers.

                                hey, my numbers lean giants here as well -- but i don't play NFL full game sides

                                but there's a reason pinnacle has $30,000 limits and -104/-104 on this game -- and it's not because they like to give away money

                                  it was a close game, as expected. No surprises. I was on the wrong team but it wasn't as if the Giants blew them out like you made it sound they would.

                                  This should be a close game as well.

                                    Giants are probably the play, but this is not even close to a lock. In fact nothing in the NFL is a lock. I'm gona leave this game alone, but ppl here here are gona rip you a new one if ravens cover.

                                          I've never used the word lock. I do not believe there is such a thing. Giants -7 makes the most gambling sense, that's why I am confident. When I feel I am seeing a good number, I get excited. That's called being a confident gambler. If you're not confident, you should put your money in a savings account, collect your 5% interest, and let the men bet on the sports.

                                          If the Giants don't cover tomorrow and people want to slam me, then.... 1. I won't care, but I will expect the slams to at least be interesting......and 2. it won't matter because I will have already chosen my next play.

                                          Giants are the better team, period. They should win by at least 2 TDs. Anyone disagreeing with that doesn't watch the NFL.

                                              And yet you said anyone who doesn't take your play shouldn't bet football. That's absurd.

                                                      Let's comically assume -- for the sake of argument -- that the Ravens will completely shut down Jacobs, Ward and Bradshaw. The Ravens will still need to score points. How's that going to happen? The Giants are second in the league in pass defense (177.1 yards per game) and third in overall defense (264.8). The Ravens are 28th in the league in passing offense. So they will have to take to the ground. Problem is, the Giants have only given up 75 rushing yards per game in the Meadowlands this year.

                                                        This game will be close. Defensive type game imo giants and the ravens will struggle to put up points vs each others defenses.'

The media is in love with the Joe Flacco story, but he is about to get his ass thumped by Kiwanuka and Tuck. They will swarm this rook an initiate him into the NFC East.

                                                          The Ravens are supposed to have a great run defense but they still lost all three games versus good competition!! Brandon Jacobs was not supposed to be able to tear through Phili last week, but he did. He wasn't supposed to be able to tear through Pittsburgh, but he did. The Cowboys were supposed to stop him, they couldn't.

                                                          Ravens are 0-3

                                                          -Giants are 10-1 ATS vs teams with a winning record.

                                                          -This year the Giants are averaging 30 ppg at home , and only giving up 13 ppg.

                                                          GIVE ME A FU***NG BREAK, LINESMAKERS! You guys make me want to puke for this outrage to sportsbettors. Kill yourselves.

I could see the Giants being up only a field-goal or maybe even tied at halftime. You've got to give the Giants' running backs time to wear down the defense. Plus, Eli is always better in the 2H. In the 4th quarter Coughlin brings in Bradshaw as a fresh RB, and that is when the Giants usually break down their opponents' will and slam the door closed.
