I wonder how much of that is Peyton Manning
Pats usually overpriced in the playoffs. Going to grind it out and try to win a close game.
Kinda think one underdog will win at least. Want to parlay both ML's...but stuff like this is making me have 2nd thoughts.Comment -
It is interesting. My thoughts off the top of my head, historically the bye teams were prohibitive favorites(mostly pre salary cap era). So, now the league has changed were there is more PARITY and it seems like the bye is not so much of an advantage anymore but usually the oddsmakers tend to give more weight to home teams in playoffs, as they should. Just like last week, as the home teams coming off a bye struggled, except for Seattle but one never knows if Cam didn't throw 2 interceptions in the red zone and one ran back for TD what would have happened but mostly would have covered as well.
Also, you have had strong teams being underdogs like the Ravens and Giants that were wild cards and went on a run to win Super Bowl.And the Manning haters can jump in as well, as his teams have not performed well as prohibitive favorites as well. So, interesting stat but still comes down to match ups and QB play.
i personally don't go by stats like this, because it is all about this year and the match ups. I do believe you can make a case for each team ,however, talent wise Pats are far superior but Luck is the X factor.Comment
