    Not talking about this bet but why is tying up money that bad?
    You won't get interest, you'll lose it faster anyway flipping coins.

    I tie up some of them my money for futures every year and double account while the daily bets is just a small grind of profit.

    Mind you I always take under in any season props/totals because of injuries.

      If you are just flipping coins to place your bets, bankroll management doesn't really matter, do whatever.

          Here is the real reason why you do not take make this bet. Over the past 9 years, the defending Super Bowl Champs have a record of 1-4 in the following years first playoff game. That means 4 times they did not even make the playoffs the following year. So once, in the past 9 seasons, the Super Bowl Champ has actually make the playoffs the following year and won a game. And you want to take +110 that Seattle does it? That is the very definition of a "sucker bet".

            The better move (depending on line) might be Frisco not winning, or even appearing, in their first playoff game

              SF has proven they can win on the road in the playoffs. If they get in, they'll have a lot of guys back too.

                Read or heard something maybe someone else can do the leg work on. Something about teams that lost in the conference finals the year prior and their 1st playoff game the following year. Don't know if it was just NFC or AFC or both.

                  Mind blowing that people don't know this. Seattle isn't some juggernaut, they had their year and that's over with.

                    I have no idea what you mean. SF has been solid year in and year out despite coming up just short of winning it all.

                      Nothing crazy about the odds, in fact its probably negative ev realistically. So what its Seattle, they still have to MAKE the playoffs first, anything can happen.

                          Ill give the fact coach carroll is a bad ass coach who wins national or league division titles. Dudes on another level. Spanks the opposite team in the final. He beat ou by 50 points for the natioinal championship. It was embarrassing.

Plus the odds are terrible. You're basically betting they win at least 11 games AND beat an unknown opponent at an undetermined location.

                                  Even the futures odds of SEA winning the NFC Championship at 3/1 is terrible odds.

                                  Philly and Indy are the only teams worth betting to win the NFC/AFC, both at 12/1.

                                      Give me one reason to tie my money for 6 months?

                                      why not have an open parlay of 7 -1000 ML's in college football instead?

                                        Tonight is a likely preview of the NFC championship game.

                                        its a shame this game had to be scheduled so early in the season, for some reason it just feels too early for a big time matchup like this.
