Havent decided yet but lening towards Minn +3 and ML
only reason is for fading the public and I have lost my ass betting favs in the NFL

Minn hasn't been able to score many points except in 1 game this year, and the NO Offense is pretty explosive. Drew Brees is an elite QB... Minn gave up 4 turnovers in their last game.... They don't seem like they are good enough to get within 3 or 4 pts of NO, or am I missing something here?

I agree Hakrjak, what do you think about the O/U?

hakrjak · 10-06-08, 01:24 PM

My book is offering O/U 47.5...

I'm tempted to take the UNDER because NO's kicker has been shit recently, missing 2 FG's the last game of theirs I watched. Minn doesn't score many points, and will eat a lot of clock with Peterson. NO may be in a situation where they are trying to let their defense rest because of all the Peterson runs, so they may be running a lot of clock also.

What are your thoughts?

At first I was feeling the over but due to your reasons and injuries I am wondering. I have 2 3-team teasers and the over 41 is the final piece of both so I am debating on hedging them and taking the under. It is 46.5 at my book. I would like to get it at 47 but it has not moved today. It would be nice to hit 42-46 if I do but I may just let it ride. Seems like several are on the under at SBR.

It just went to 47, so I laid $55 on the under against my teasers. If between 42-46 then I hit all three bets and cash $315 (that would be SWEET!).

Nice... I just locked in a Dime on the Under 47.5, so good luck to both of us tonight

-- If NO beat the spread, I'll be pissed because my gut is telling me to take that one also, but I'm hanging back for now.

Yeah took NO -2 for 1st half and -3 for the game.

Good luck bud!

minnesota might be a good play.
they were touted to win alot of games before the year started
frerotte is an upgrade over t.jackson
minny should put up points against the no defense

new orleans is down 3 good receivers and a good d-lineman
theyll get something with brees and bush

I am playing Minnesota +3-
My program has the total at 47 so I could go either way on that.

I am joining the bandwagon here. Locked in NO -4 to go with my under 47.5 bet.

Good luck!

Small play on the UNDER (I got it @ 47 from Legendz).
