Monday Night Football

bigboydan · 10-30-06, 01:03 PM

I don't think it's that tough at all JJ. I'm taking the Vikings in this game.

durito · 10-30-06, 01:12 PM

I like the Vikings here too. Home team underdog on Monday night + Minnesota is a good team and I think New England is overated. This was the game I liked the most all week. Need a win here for a profitable weekend.

HAPPY BOY · 10-30-06, 03:26 PM

New England is getting better and better each week. Brady's found rythm with his new recievers. I like New England tonight. Gl

ivyconniver · 10-30-06, 03:27 PM

The public is on NE, the line has gone the wrong direction, but i'm still on NE.

isetcap · 10-30-06, 03:36 PM

The Patriots have one impressive win this year when they beat Cincinnati who let them rush for over 200 yards. I'm not sure that has me convinced that New England is the play for tonight, especially considering Minnesota's defense is unlikely to make it quite that easy to run the ball.

hanco21 · 10-30-06, 04:30 PM

New England -1 is the play tonight. There is no way Minnesota repeats their effort like last week in Seattle. The public is all over Minnesota because they play well vs Chicago, etc (strength of schedule). Look for Brady to play his best game of season and New England's D will finally wake up. New England by 10.

jjgold · 10-30-06, 04:50 PM

I am going with Minny because Pats look to easy.

Tell me why:

"There is no way Minnesota repeats their effort...in Seattle."
"Brady to play his best game of the season..."
"New England's D will finally wake up."

I see a lot of unsupported statements here. The only thing supported is why the public happens to be backing Minnesota, but even that is questionable considering the line is moving against New England as money pours in on that side. Are you guessing these things are going to happen or do you know something that leads you to believe they're going to happen? I'm genuinely interested as it could definitely me help properly evaluate this game, and on my own I don't see any special reason why these things will happen.

I do not agree. Simply check SIA lines (against public). Minnesota +2.5 even...

bigboydan · 10-30-06, 05:23 PM

Lucas, Backing up your SIA claim, heres the latest consensus numbers on this game from carib:

Patriots vs Vikings (Week 8)(ESPN)

Vikings 28.52%
Patriots 71.48%
34236 Bets

I like the two teams to come out with a tie in this one.

That could end up being a very impressive call. Are you putting money on that outcome?

Find me a prop for a 13-13 tie. Not only to I want to bet it, I want to bet the exact score as well.

isetcap · 10-30-06, 05:31 PM

Vikings 28.52%
Patriots 71.48%

Wow, I guess taking New England in this would have to be considered a "sucker bet". I wonder if we can receive confirmation from the Dictator of "sucker bets".

It's really quite exciting that the public might be playing New England tonight. That just never happens.

I love that guy on your avatar. I've submitted a proposal to Pinnacle for your requested wager. We'll see how they respond.

Lucas · 10-30-06, 05:38 PM

Owned what is the lowest odd that you accept for 13-13?

Talk about a shot-in-the-dark number.

I say Pats team total under is the play, both the VIkings and under look good, but it looks better, got U21 -105 at cris. Also now if anyone ifs playing at Cris they are dealing -106 essentially with the double loyalty program.

I believe the New England is improving each week and Minnesota played their best game of the season last week and they won a game unexpectedly. On the strength of schedule the Vikings have played better teams narrowly losing to Chicago and I believe that is what the betting public is seeing. They think Minnesota is better than what they are. The line opened at -3 and is slowly being bet down. My reference is under the SBR Odds where is gives you ats, etc. New England will cover this game.

I mean come on Michael Irvin picked Minnesota and he is an idiot.

You're probably right about that.

rm18 · 10-30-06, 08:34 PM

he always picks the team with more guys from the U, don't read too much into it.

Thats one negative for Viking backers. Irvin on them, oucher.

Brady is killin the Vikes

gummo · 10-30-06, 09:51 PM

Nice Monday night gift to the public.

hanco21 · 10-30-06, 09:58 PM

Not over yet, don't jinx it.

Seattle Slew · 10-30-06, 10:08 PM

Best half of the season for the Pats. Dominating performance so far. This is not the crap defense Minnesota faced last week in Seattle.

ivyconniver · 10-30-06, 10:17 PM

just have to do it again in the 2nd half

hanco21 · 10-30-06, 10:34 PM

Now thats how you answer back after a Minny TD. 24-7 baby.

SIA always has inflated lines. (scalper heaven), I trust pinny's lines over SIA any day. I really think SIA banked on New England tonight shading the line against them for scalpers. Sia made a killing tonight.
