The Bottom line is that Seattle finds ways to win even though their receiving core is less than impressive. Russell Wilson is a winner. Did any of you see that stat about Wilson that he always had a lead in every game since college?
You can't fade Wilson no matter how dominant New England looks. However, this is one of New England's best defenses. Nobody wants to throw near Revis or Richard Sherman for that matter because of their greatness.
Seattle really had a lousy performance, but sports are all about winning and they refused to lose, no matter the circumstances.
The best thing to do is NOT bet with your heart. Bet with your brain and know that points will be scored and these defenses won't give in easily; especially in the red zone. 48.5 is a high number from what I've seen today.
Good luck to everyone. I really do hate to see people lose. I want New England to win, but if you bet this "toss-up" with discipline, the under is the play.
Any thoughts?
