Yeah, but both teams LOVE to throw the ball and spread teams out. I could see 40 passing attempts by both Brees & Rodgers in this game which would favor the over.

those were my thoughts on last year saints vs vikings game, and it hit the under by a lot.

**sanchez** · 06-29-11, 01:48 PM

i feel like the public will pound the over, and then the sharps will take the under in GB vs NO

Also, if the lockout goes much longer, the timing being off for offensive execution due to lack of reps will be more problematic than time missed in defensive preparation. In short, pound the under until the lines adjust if the lockout persists.

I feel like that is what everyone is thinking like

**sanchez** · 07-02-11, 12:22 AM

the lockout will be over soon, i don't get why everyone is getting so worked up about it still

**nbarlotta3** · 07-02-11, 09:06 AM

**the-phenomenal-1** · 07-02-11, 04:37 PM

**lakerboy** · 07-04-11, 12:51 AM

bears are an easy play.

like the saints fading the superbowl champs.

**jahred6999** · 07-04-11, 02:29 AM

i'm liking the under, but you never know with martz

**MarlinsFan2212** · 07-04-11, 09:47 AM

Dallas +4

**sanchez** · 07-07-11, 03:42 PM

Anyone have a feeling on Indy Houston?

**kiknit** · 07-18-11, 07:41 PM

Its actually the Chargers who start slow, not Minny. Peterson and Toby in the backfield but the $64million question is who is going to be their leader? Ponder as a rookie...? Dunno if he has enough to come out of the gate firing. Peterson and Toby in the backfield are going to help...and I think they help just enough.

Vikings +9.5

**iwantcougars** · 07-18-11, 11:18 PM

i think joe webb is going to be under center at the start for the vikes, and i'm confident that he'll remain there unless he goes to d/l

**sanchez** · 07-19-11, 01:49 AM

you really think joe webb will start over ponder

i strongly disagree

**bobbyk1133** · 07-19-11, 02:13 AM

These lines are useless at this point. If you go back and look at how many dogs win in the 1st week there will still be a ton of value after rosters are more settled.

**ilciclope** · 07-19-11, 05:23 AM

[COLOR=#000000 !important]min +9.5. sd always starts slowly.[/COLOR]

I agree, tons of value on some of these dogs:

Saints +5 1/2, Lions +3 1/2, Eagles +4, Seahawks +5 1/2, Vikings +9 1/2, Raiders +1 1/2

Good chance week 1 will be week 9, so maybe a repost is in order...

Huh? Football will proceed as scheduled.... I promise

Only game we MIGHT miss is the HOF game.

Lockout will be lifted July 21... FA begins 28th....

**BetWeather** · 07-19-11, 10:38 AM

Best values week 1 are the Raiders and Green Bay.

**bigballer891** · 07-19-11, 12:24 PM

I love how you guys are trying to handicapp the games now, a million things are going to change between now and kickoff, free agency hasnt even started. The only thing that matters now is where the # is going to go.

No1 is handicapping anything.... we are giving opinions based on the existing factors... put your gun back in your holster there guy.... This isn't our first pony show.

**BetterBizness** · 07-19-11, 12:52 PM

doesn't hurt to be prepared... what the fuc else is there to talk about anyways?

**MYFOOTBALLGAME** · 07-19-11, 08:12 PM

Take unders Defenses will be way ahead of offenses

**MYFOOTBALLGAME** · 07-19-11, 08:13 PM

Dallas should win 11 games this year an easy over on team totals

**MYFOOTBALLGAME** · 07-19-11, 08:13 PM

Romo the Homo finally got hitched to prove hes not gay

From the look of early week 1 lines I'm not sure this is a blind theory you can go ahead with. Remember that totals jumped the shark last year and overs were hitting at unprecedented rates. Most of the early lines are well below the raised averages from last season.

squares are going to get roasted week 1 me thinks

**losemyloot** · 07-20-11, 02:46 PM
