why are the seahawks laying 5.5 on the road?

[BrickJames]

I don't get what side you are supporting, Jameis, both?

Was just commenting on the weather I live about 3 miles from the stadium. I will definitely be watching the line probably won't get anything down until game day. It's a tough call where the Seahawks blew out the Vikings sitting right behind the Seahawks bench and I had the Vikings that day.

Super tough call

[BrickJames]

I will be sure to come back and post my pick before kickoff

[amrit]

Vikings +5 is the play.

...are you retarded? Seattle sucks on the road and has had 0 impressive road victories outside of the Minnesota game where the vikings were missing their 3 best defensive players.

The cards game meant nothing to the cards.

Good to see that idiot seahawkharry is on the seahawks. As usual, we can fade this idiot (and all know-nothing Seattle fans) to victory.

Did you actually read what you just wrote after pressing Enter?

[SEAHAWKHARRY]

No the guy just likes to bash people

[pilebuck13]

Harry there's people who disagree which is fine because it's a forum and we're all big boys discussing sides to a line...but then there is the people who hate winners so much that they can not stand the Seahawks, everything about them makes them upset...and I get it I used to hate the Bulls hell I even love to see tom Brady acting like a little bitch on the sideline.....so they just talk shit and come up with stupid reasons to call anyone who likes Seattle a moron or a square...it's ok we shall see what happens and then see how many of them eat crow

[SEAHAWKHARRY]

Yup

[ChiLLx]

Did Pinnacle screw up opening this at -7??

[JayDr3am]

let the cash pour in on Seahawks.. let it pour baby

[LT Profits]

Did Pinnacle screw up opening this at -7??

They didn't, Pinnacle opened at -5.5.

[StackinGreen]

LT, do you agree with me about the game? Have you commented on it?

[LT Profits]

My comment is/was that this line is not as far-fetched as some seem to believe. The problem is I actually think 4/4.5 is about right, so I probably won't bet it, Vikes +6 was probably the play but I missed it.

[mlathrop3]

The line is so high because this is the WORST possible matchup for the Vikings in the entire playoff field, save for maybe the Broncos. I'm surprised they didn't tank the game against Green Bay to get a different matchup.

I like all of the home dogs to have a shot this week, except for the Vikings. Cincinnati being the obvious choice and Houston should stay within 3.5. The Washington/GB line is sharp.

[StackinGreen]

mlathrop3, pound Seattle

also, just stick with Cinci, because with that D at home they are clearly the best value home dawg

Washington has been mediocre all year, GB really gonna lay 3 in a row? Maybe, but I wouldn't bet it, and everyone likes Washington for some reason

You know what to do

[ChiLLx]

They didn't, Pinnacle opened at -5.5.

What? No they didn't. It was -7. I saw it with my own eyes as did many others.

[lakerboy]

The seahawks are tough.

[LT Profits]

What? No they didn't. It was -7. I saw it with my own eyes as did many others.

It was never -7. Opened -5.5 Sunday night at 11:59 ET, soon after Sunday night game ended. Line services I see are all consistent with that.

I wish I took a screenshot.

The seahawks were -7 at pinny. I saw it with my own eyes.

This is correct. Sbr odds was not up yet for playoff lines when it opened.

I saw it a 6 for a short period, I wish I would've seen it at 7

It opened -7 +100

[LT Profits]

Not just sbr odds, look at any line service you want. All show opener as -5.5 Sunday except for -4.5 at Sports Options, but they show opener Monday morning so they missed early ticks.

I refreshed Pinny repeatedly Sunday night until they released the lines. Can confirm that pinny opened at 7.

[LT Profits]

I am recording official opener as -5.5 because I can only go by official line service openers. Have to be consistent with line sources for database.

[lakerboy]

Not based on line histories at any site.

Line history is irrelevant.

I've seen pinny do this many a time. No service site gets pinny original #. It's why pinn is so unique.

As I said, issue is with consistency of line source when recording openers. I can't arbitrarily ignore line services, that would destroy integrity of the database.

[Da Manster!]

jesus tap dancing christ!......you guys with your psycho analytical bullshit gibberish on the opening line...don't make handicapping any harder than it has to be...simply ask yourself...which QB would you rather trust in this situation...Russell Wilson or Teddy Bridgewater?!....case closed!......take Seattle (-4) right now, and thank me later!...

[DwightShrute]

go Hawks!

#1 thread for morons in 2016

[jjgold]

line stale

not even moving

playoffs lines really do not move much anyway

[CHOICE]

QB hand size matters in cold games. Wilson hands:10.25. Bridgewater 9.25.

[rake922]

vikings team total is 17.5
