New Line are out. Books ready to punish for this weekend

bearmz · 01-04-09, 08:53 PM

Was on at Bookmaker at original posting of lines for next week's Sunday P-off games. A wild ride for Gi/Eagles line.

Opened at Gi-5/46'. Here it came: 5/4/4'/5'/4'/4. Missed the earliest ML, but got it, I believe starting at 4: Gi ML -?/200/210/260/230/210/200. Not much on O/U went: 40'/40/40'/stalled/41.

Car -435ML opened 9'/46'. No really early action then tot hit to 47' and then to 48.

All this in the 1st 15-20 minutes. No more needed. Having a hard time backing the Eagles, but someone does.

Early I like NY Giants -4, Baltimore +3, San Diego +6

andrewaxia · 01-04-09, 09:24 PM

I think the Giants line comes down to -3. I see the public betting the Eagles

I agree I will be waiting on this line. The public will jump like you said you said.

Did you see Donovan on the sideline chewing his fingernails during the game. He does that everytime they lose confidence. Westbrook bailed him out. They did not exactly blow this game open against the Vikings with a bad QB.

I love the Giants pick waiting on people to boost the Eagles up. I took them against the Vikings. Baltimore is the scariest pick. I dont know if Flacco will be allowed to just sit there in the pocket. NFL network will be playing these on replay all week. San Diego I cant trust them traveling to the Steelers in cold weather. I wish they will let LT play. I would lay the wood on this thing. He is puss.

G's pks · 01-04-09, 09:55 PM

They were talking on the radio about the cardinals being the worst team in the playoffs. I disagree the vikings were the worst team in the playoffs. The cardinals still are in the playoffs. Fun weekend would have liked to see Philly hitting on all cylinders against the worst qb in the playoffs...Jackson.

I'd love it if the line on philly went to -3, have no idea why ppl wud put their faith in philly tho??? they were so shaky tonite

Jones10 · 01-04-09, 10:13 PM

Liking the giants right now..especially if the line does more down to -3

Just as a first glance...I'll have to do some more homework. You make some good points.

w9ii9 · 01-04-09, 10:48 PM

I think people are gonna hammer the Panthers Sat night. Those guys have that 8-0 home record, Smash/Dash #2, Cards can't run the ball - can't play defense.

I would not get to crazy with smashing Carolina Panthers. Arizona are 10+. Thats a lot of damn points. I wish some would pound it to 11+ then one would have to consider it. Taking a running team like Carolina and you can get a not a backdoor cover but a sidedoor cover. SIDEDOOR COVER They are up by 10 and continue to run the ball I.E. New Orleans Saints game at the end of the season

Its gonna be hard to ask Sproles to put up 300+ total yards again. LT is such a puss. I still like the Chargers to cover, possibly pull out a win on the road.

Hmm. I just sparking it up, its Sunday. They could cover with the +6 for sure. I dont know about the win just yet. I need to find out who is officiating the game. Not talking about the play at the end. They were dominated on offense. The Steelers were called for over 10+ penalities in the 4th quarter alone.

400+ yards for the Steelers that day. Very similar teams.

If one would have to choose a blow out this upcoming weekend. Which would it be? I think it could be Baltimore rolling over the Titans.

mv09 · 01-04-09, 11:40 PM

Eagles +4
Ravens -3

Seattle Slew · 01-05-09, 12:42 AM

Minnesota did crush Arizona but obviously the Cardinals were not interested in playing that day. Talent wise, no contest. Arizona is superior.

Like a fool, I played Minnesota for a small play because I just didn't trust the Eagles. But the Vikings are such a garbage team. Lousy QB, lousy special teams, below average coaching. Chester Taylor should move to another team. He's a big-time player stuck behind Peterson.

why so

ManBearPig · 01-05-09, 02:31 AM

I dont know why everyone is so high on the Ravens...they beat a team that was lucky to even be in the playoffs and will have their resolve tested this week. I have to admit im a titans fan which kinda takes objectivity out of the equation so I won't be betting this one..although the under could be enticing here. I see a hardnose grind it out type game here. These two teams do have a little history in the playoffs and so they will go at each other pretty hard.

It's a pretty even matchup on the defensive side of the ball, but I have to wonder how the rookie Flacco will hold up in such a pressure packed situation. If TENN can get to him early and rattle him then he could be in for a long day. Otherwise this will be one of those games that comes down to the last posession and maybe even OT.

Do you see the line moving in the Titans favor during the week.

ManBearPig · 01-05-09, 02:51 AM

Do I? Personally...no. I think the money will be split pretty evenly on both sides so the line prob won't move much if any. I guess if anything more and more people could jump on the Ravens bandwagon and drive it down a bit but I don't see it going any higher than where it's at right now. This will hopefully be one of the better games this weekend and I'm hoping my team comes out on top so I don't wanna put anymore stress on myself and won't be betting this one.

First of all the worst team in the playoffs was Miami, they were 11-5.......Yeah sounds great but they had the 3rd easiest schedule in the NFL!!!!! Minnesota was playing at home and has the best defense against the run in the league. Philly was not able to run the ball for most of the day and Mcnabb managed to throw for over 300 yards. This Philly team is dangerous and will give the Giants a tough time next week!!

Jones10 · 01-05-09, 03:44 PM

The NY/ Phila line will prolly go down to 3 which I still like the Gmen in this matchup in NY...Also Azrizona getting 10 seems way too high even though Carloina is 8-0 at home but it won't be too cold their Saturday prolly 50's / 60's so Arizona pass O should be able to move the ball n score...Still very early though

EastsidaProduct · 01-05-09, 04:38 PM

Saturday:
Baltimore (+3)
Carolina (-10)
Sunday:
Philly (+4)
Steelers (-6)

The only reason I knew exactly how bad the vikes were... because being a bear fan I see them all the time. When they play the bears, packers and lions. They all had one thing in commom...they all sucked with terrible pass coverage!

Correct against the run the vikes are very good...its the rest of their defense that blows! Honestly one game the bears beat them 48-41 this year... Being a bear fan I shook my head and thought these are two of the worst pass defenses ever!

Philly beat NY without there top back. May cost ya. Carolina is a running team and once that get up by ten they will run the clock if its late. I.E the New Orleans game they played in week 17. I would wait on some movement in that number. Anquon is not playing so it could happen
