Too bad SF got banged up at DL and LB today. GB is very susceptible vs. the run and SF should be able to exploit that to some degree. I don't think they will be able to contain the GB passing attack without getting pressure from their front due to injuries.

When I was a teenager a quarter of a century ago just starting to get serious about sports betting and such, a cigar chomping, banker visor wearing, bookmaker that booked bets starting out in the WWII era by answering phones and recording all bets on fly paper told me when a football line opens at '2' that generally means "let the betting public decide which direction that line moves, either to three or to one"
I was wise to listen to all the old-timers when I was young, the knowledge they shared, the information that still applies today can not be learned in any textbook.Comment -
Good stuff. Yes always better to listen to the old timers. I'm old know what I'm talking about but the likelihood of some kid listening to me isn't that high. A lot of these kids fight over egos on message boards, why I came here-I'm done with Junior High, Junior.

Heritage is my go-to.
I have the US accounts just for other 'out's
Can't beat Heritage.
(well you can but the payouts are lightening)Comment -
Yeah generally the lines follow the sagarin ratings. Because of the bills blowouts the 2 hits the #
Used to do heritage, remember when it was betjamaica. with all the brick books around no needComment -
i remember back in the day getting usa today newspapers at the hotel door. everybody loved those color front pages. they'd have the sagarin ratings in the sports page
sagaring has several ratings, predictor, golden mean, i'd agonize over the #s. used to get pissed that he didn't say "this is the one to go with". now that i'm older it's easy-go with predictor. so much stuff becomes easier when u get older.
i remember sitting in a subway watching some guy get internet on his cell phone. that was revolutionary, i could not believe you can get it out of the air.
as of now got my eye on the sunday games. saturday games, hard to argue imo -3.5 tenn and -5.5 packers.
tampa bay brady still doing it without fournette brown and godwin. the tampa offensive line was key-they kept brady's pocket clean. so whoever plays the buccs, going to have to take a hard look on if they can get to brady. the glamour candidates of course are donald/rams and watt/birds. tb did lose an olineman wirfs, guessing he'll be fine, ankle injury. looking to bet against tampa, need an angle.
buff-kc i'm eyeing for sure. always like the prime time, prime slot games, the ones the public bets on the most, the so-called sharps bet on the most. both sheep and wolves get slaughtered. everybody is a sharp, everyone thinks they know better. lolComment -
all in on cheese super duper max betComment -
OF course KC defense made BIG BEN look as bad as he is only 45 yards in 1st half
NO team that LOST T B in season ever won a superbowl (saints DON'T count they went bench final 3 games of year massive injuries)
so far 3 playoff teams that LOST to T B are gone Patriots - Eagles- C boys - NEXT UP is BILLSComment -
Someone have the team history for the past decade? GB doesn't play the Niners well. Weather should be a factor but not health.
Warners lower ankle will be ready
Jimmy's thumb and right shoulder will be ready
Waiting on Bosa to clear and that would be the issue.
Won't call anyone out but they look healthy enough to me and have a great history. Buy +4 on the Niners and parlay it the over in KC/Buff game when weather is confirmed. That would be my suggestion.
Bol all!Comment -
WISH i had about $50 k cash to take all BETS on 49ers and i'll give you 8.5 points
THE 49ers offense DID Not score an offensive TD in 1st half
HORRIBLE Offense all season now with more injuries added after Cowboys game and i dont give a frig if Joey bosa plays HE is NOT THE QB
JUST like VON millers didnt help Rams vs Ravens or 49ersComment -
NI9ERS GOING TO GB and WINNING !!!Comment -
every edge you need about tonights game

PREVIEW
While the Los Angeles Rams will play host to the first-ever Monday night playoff game, it is the Arizona Cardinals who are feeling completely familiar with the lead-up to the all-NFC West wild-card-round matchup.
The Rams-Cardinals primetime showdown will be the third meeting between the teams, with the road team having won the previous two. Los Angeles is a 3.5-point favorite.
And while the Rams prevailed in a Monday night meeting at Arizona in December, it was the Cardinals who pronounced themselves playoff-worthy with a Week 4 victory at Los Angeles in early October.
Defeats in four of their last five games cost the Cardinals an NFC West title and left them with something to prove Monday. But that was also the case in Week 4, when they arrived in Los Angeles on the heels of three consecutive wins to start the season amid questions of whether their hot start was sustainable.
The Cardinals not only delivered a resounding 37-20 victory over the Rams that day, behind two touchdown passes from Kyler Murray and 120 yards rushing from Chase Edmonds, but they went on to open the season 7-0.
Having gone 4-6 since that undefeated start, the Cardinals are once again having to prove that their time has arrived.
"It's 0-0, and no one remembers the regular season," Cardinals coach Kliff Kingsbury said. "It's what you do here on out, and it's a real opportunity for us to take the next step and see how good we can be."
The game will not only be Murray's playoff debut, but it will be the Cardinals' first appearance in the playoffs since 2015-16, when they defeated the Green Bay Packers in the divisional round but were blown out by the Carolina Panthers in the NFC Championship Game.
Murray averaged 270.5 yards passing per game this season with 24 TDs and 10 interceptions. He had 383 yards passing in Week 14 against the Rams but did not throw a TD pass that day and was intercepted twice in a 30-23 Los Angeles victory.
"I like that we had two games to see how we played them, how they played us and what looked good and didn't," Kingsbury said. "So we can build off that."
The Rams had a hot start of their own, despite their early loss to the Cardinals, opening with a 7-1 record. Then came a midseason slumber when they took consecutive defeats to a trio of playoff teams, the Tennessee Titans, the San Francisco 49ers and the Packers.
The Rams were just 2-5 against playoff teams this season.
Quarterback Matthew Stafford averaged 309.6 yards passing per game with 22 TDs and four interceptions over the first eight games in a Rams uniform, but those stats fell to 267.7 yards passing with 19 TDs and 13 interceptions over the final nine games as Los Angeles went 5-4.
Stafford did help wide receiver Cooper Kupp to a Rams-record 1,947 receiving yards, while Kupp also pulled off the wide receiver triple crown, leading the NFL in receptions (145), TDs (16) and receiving yards.
After their midseason swoon, the Rams pulled together a five-game winning streak that included their victory at Arizona, but questions started anew after their 27-24 defeat in overtime to the 49ers to close out the season. The Rams blew a 17-0, first-half lead.
Los Angeles' offensive and defensive lines were dominated by the 49ers in the season finale, especially in the second half as San Francisco rallied.
"Whether we're playing at home, playing on the road, things are going our way, things aren't going our way, we continue to battle," said Stafford, who has not won a playoff game in three chances. "That's what it takes to win games in the playoffs, there's no question. Right now, it's testing us ... but we're a resilient group and we'll be ready to go."
Rams safety Jordan Fuller is out for the playoffs with an ankle injury and fellow safety Taylor Rapp (concussion) was ruled out Saturday. The injuries led to the Rams signing Eric Weddle out of retirement Wednesday and McVay said he will be activated prior to Monday's game. Linebacker Leonard Floyd (back) will play.
Cardinals defensive end J.J. Watt (shoulder), who hasn't played since Week 7, returned to practice Thursday and was activated Monday. Watt, 32, hasn't played for the Cardinals since Oct. 24. Days later, Watt underwent surgery to repair a torn labrum, bicep, rotator cuff and separated shoulder.
Edmonds (ribs, toe) is slated to play, while fellow running back James Conner (ribs) is listed as questionable. Left guard Justin Pugh (calf) also is questionable.
