    The Game We Have All Been Waiting For----The NFL Pro Bowl-----OVER or UNDER 85.5???
    Past two years the total has gone over

    85 seems kind of high but last year both teams combined for 100 points. I'm still looking into it but if anyone has any early leans let me know. This is one of my favorite games of the year to bet on.

      85 seems like an insane total for a football game, but is this really a football game? I'm leaning under anyway.

        It is a game played by a field of losers to determine who the better loser is. I have spoken to some handicappers on Twitter and there have been suggestions that they will take this game more seriously because of accusations they were getting from previous years on not trying. However, it is hard to bet an under in these type of games because even though it is a high total, in the back of your mind you know that over could easily happen. These players have been eliminated for weeks and have probably turned to cookies and cream ice cream and chicken wings as their diet. They are out of shape and not prepared to play. They won't be looking to injure themselves by chasing down a rusher. I see a lot of open holes, and a scrimmage like game. This one is a toss up as of now.

            Had a dime on the over last year. Easy $. Only fukking guy they tried to tackle was Cam Newton.

              I got it at 83 and took the over... I wonder how many people take the under.

                What was the over/under over the past several years each time? I'd assume it goes higher each year as the game matters less and less. I remember in the 80's it seemed like the game at least somewhat mattered

                  Have to take the over, literally no incentive for these guys to tackle out there.

                    Last year it was mid 70's, year before 60's, both times went over. The total has been steadily rising.

                      Seems like a crapshoot. If I had to play, I'd take UNDER.

                          If the guys don't give a shit and want this to be the last Pro Bowl, the game will fly over. If they take it somewhat serious and actually play a little defense, it stays under. It's a coin flip...

                                All the players were on ESPN doing interviews saying they are going to "try" this year...

                                Obvious the league looking to save face here...

                                Very good chance we see a close, "low scoring" Pro Bowl...

                                Under is the Play...

                                    peanut tillman said he and his teammates do not want the game cancelled for future stars on their account. you can expect some defense but how much really? can we really expect to see 12 td's?!

                                                    usually when a line moves this much when you jump on the train there tends to be a wreck
