NFL Wild Card Wknd: Which Dog Has Best Shot At The Upset

[Snowball]

All ML?

yep, Buffalo and Atlanta together are about 15-1
add KC and NO - get 26-1.

[survive]

Lol. Falcons are not a live dog. They will look like the dogs Michael Vick used to kill. The line has already gone from-4.5 to -6.5. Rams will destroy them before freezing to death in Minnesota

Yea I’m sure they’ll freeze to death in an indoor stadium

[dmncnlou]

Carolina. They were just in the Super Bowl 2 years ago. How soon ya forget. Theyll crank it up.

[PAULYPOKER]

Falcons will get blown out.

Buffalo wins

[OTL]

ATL struggles to score on the road... Carolina is the only live dog I see this weekend.

[PAULYPOKER]

Don't forget..

Rams stadium gonna be full of
Atlanta fans because the Rams have none.........

[PAULYPOKER]

With that being said I would love to see Buffalo pull off the upset
because I do not like the Jax/Pitt match up for my Steelers.........

I think both Falcons and Bills make a lot of sense
Falcons are dynamic and experienced
Bills are determined and physical with a heck of a running game.
not interested in the points, just ML.

What I don't like about that is Public on Buff ATS......

Only dog public likes......

Game getting serious RLM..........

[hamburglar628]

Jax will crush the Bills.

They just have a hard time against the Titans...they are 0-2 this year averaging 13/game vs Tennessee. Last year they were 1-1, and only won the game because Mariota got hurt. Don’t let last week fool you about the Jags or Saints.

[Statman]

Let's not forget that Carolina also beat NE and MINN during the season and those two teams are ranked 1 and 2 in terms of odds to win the Superbowl....

Lol this might be the dumbest rationale you’ll see for the week

[chargers4222]

Let's not forget that the Memphis Grizzlies beat the Warriors and Rockets in consecutive games...

[SharpAngles]

If Shady is ruled OUT...will that # hit -10?

More like if he’s upgraded the line goes to 6.5-7. My sources have Shadys ankle a serious concern, I’d say his absense is already factored into the current number.

For the dog most likely to bark this weekend, give me Carolina

[jjgold]

Atlanta

[LT Profits]

Carolina.

Saints had a must win, blew it to TB despite winning TO battle at home....

Saints beat Carolina twice already I think...

Beating same guy 3 times not easy... I'm leaning towards ML on all dogs except Buffalo... go 2-1 make serious coin. Go 1-2 losses don't hurt so bad.

I would not say they "blew" it, note that they gave up losing touchdown soon after Rams lost. So they "won" back 4-seed to potentially draw Philadelphia instead of Minnesota next week.

Back on point, while I really do not like any of the 4 dogs to win outright, if forced to choose one it would be Atlanta. Also note that Carolina is the longest shot on the board to win NFC so Saints may actually be undervalued at -6.5

[Auto Donk]

HEY, when you get old like me, you can literally freeze to death while under the covers in a 68 degrees bedroom......

[Harry N. Lloyd]

I think its between ATL and CAR, leaning towards ATL. The Saints have picked apart Carolina in both matchups this year with Kamara, Ingram, and Thomas having great numbers. The only thing scaring me is the fact that its not that its just hard to beat a team 3 times but, Cam has had two sub par games in a row. With how this year has been, Cam is absolutely overdue for a big game.

ATL has the experience. ATL has only lost by 10 or more in two matchups this year so you know they will keep it close. Having a good kicker helps in close games, and the Rams lost the best kicker this year. It's going to be interesting to see the young Rams play on a big stage. I also think Vegas likes the Falcons more than the Panthers, from what I've seen ATL is 20-1 compared to CAR 30-1 to win it all at this point.

ATL is my choice.

I agree.

[JIBBBY]

Rams have been tough all year long, defense is outstanding... I'm changing my mind on this upset pic.. I think the Rams spank the Falcons... Falcons might have a hard time on the road going in to this playoff game..

Rams just win games... The way Gurly is running the ball now is a very scary thought for the Falcons..

[BigdaddyQH]

Lakerboy, you have to be the dumbest arse in here. Only a complete and total loser would not know which stadiums are domed. What a dumb fuuuck. As far as Atlanta is concerned, the Falcons are 10-0 when scoring over 17 points. They are 0-6 when scoring 17 or under. Do you really think that the Ram's defense will hold Atlanta to 17 points or less? They do not make them any dumber than you.

[SharpAngles]

Bills, Dolphins, Patriots, Panthers, Vikings and Saints held the Falcons to 17 or less, 3 of these in Atlanta btw.

Which team here has a better defense than the Rams?

[navyblue81]

Don’t see Buffalo winning in Jax without McCoy. Not against that pass defense. I actually think JACksonville kills them and are the best bet of the weekend. No McCoy=no chance. And him at 50% is basically the same as no McCoy.

Atlanta has the best shot. I don’t see any of the other underdogs having a great chance at winning or covering, although Carolina maybe can keep it close. But they stunk last time in NO.

this is why i've held back so far
Bills a threat regardless of his input

[bigjah15]

i believe titans pull off the upset.

Agreed Sharpie.. That's what I saw and thought about. I'm going with the Rams... Rams defense is no joke.. They are mostly rested and will be ready as they sat out during that last throw away game of the season..

I think they get to Ryan and pressure the shiiiit out of him.

Oh fukk!,this pos wishing for death 24/7/365 loser has just cursed ATL...........!!

No joke...

ATL doesn't have a goddamned snowball's chance in Hell to survive...........!!

[PAULYPOKER]

That wouldn't be an upset.......

KC and Tenn. are the weakest links in the AFC after Buffalo....

Well said... Agreed..

[jizay]

Don't understand the Bills love in this thread. They are the worst playoff team by a wide margin. Most likely they get trucked.

Eagles might actually be now without Wentz....

[DISTROYA]

ATL....defending nfc champs getting almost a td (that 6.5 very important as LAR dont even have a legit kicker)
Thought line would be -3 highest. A team not in playoffs for 1.5 decades laying 6 with a no kicker, just doesnt make sense.
If Im a sucker so be it, will go down with ATL. Its my only play of the 1st round, points and on the money.

[Sam Losco]

atlanta may be only team to cover spread, let alone win

[hamburglar628]

i believe titans pull off the upset.

The titans and bills are frauds...even though I hate the Ravens, they should have made it. Take a look at KC at home starting Week 1 to Week 16 (their last home game).

20- Eagles
20- Redskins
19- Steelers
19- Broncos
16- Bills
15- Raiders
13- Chargers (THEY WERE RED HOT)
13- Dolphins

KC has a fantastic matchup at home. The Titans are just not good, you got a hurt QB, with a second year RB, with a bunch of mediocre playmakers traveling to a COLD Kansas City (going to feel like 20 degree there). KC hasn't gave up more than 20 points this year at home! Vegas is predicting KC to score around 27 points.G

[PAULYPOKER]

^San Diego would of did most damage as I'm sure nobody wanted to see them in post season

[hamburglar628]

JAX vs Ravens and KC vs SD would have been 10x more interesting.

[arrgy]

ATL struggles to score on the road... Carolina is the only live dog I see this weekend.

Atlanta had one away game where they didn't score at least 10...that was in New England. For the season they have scored on average one more point at home then they did on the road.

The problem they have....the Rams have scored the most points on average at home then any other team..32.8 and that number should be higher when you consider they didn't give a crap about the last home game against the 49ers.
