Could we have a 10 pt home dog in the NFC playoffs?

DwightShrute · 12-26-10, 06:44 PM

very very possible

dynamite140 · 12-26-10, 06:47 PM

Saints at Rams/Seahawks? 10 points will be pretty hard to happen.

WvGambler · 12-26-10, 06:51 PM

The Rams wont be 10 point dogs to any of the other first round playoff teams. More like 7.5.

WvGambler · 12-26-10, 06:51 PM

Seahawks could be a different story though...

pavyracer · 12-26-10, 06:52 PM

Well if they open as +7.5 I can see the public driving the line to 10 by game time.

I can't see the public driving it that high.....maybe to 9 at most. We shall see though. I have been bad predicting line movement all year.

If Seahawks win and Whitehurst starts I wouldn't be shocked if they were a 14 pt. dog. Painful to watch Seattle play....still sad they have a shot of making it in if they just beat the Rams...

Seattle Slew · 12-26-10, 07:25 PM

Rams at least have some upside. Decent defense, young QB. Seattle is just awful.

D3 Mighty Ducks · 12-26-10, 08:15 PM

Theres a possibility but I highly doubt we'll see 10+ points.

WeinketoWarrick · 12-26-10, 08:26 PM

It'll be 7.

WeinketoWarrick · 12-26-10, 08:26 PM

Saints at Rams will be -7 (-115), Saints at Seahawks should be Saints -7.5

Fieldysnuts44 · 12-26-10, 08:49 PM

Im really pulling for the Rams to make it in.The Seahawks are horrible.

whatsgood5 · 12-26-10, 08:55 PM

Seven sounds about right to me, still pretty high though.

jsmithj88 · 12-26-10, 09:18 PM

saints or GB would destroy seattle

tblues2005 · 12-26-10, 09:54 PM

It could be a 10 point dog at home. New Orleans or Atlanta is way better than the Rams or Seattle is. Shoot they played both those teams and got clobbered by both of them.

Jnas · 12-26-10, 10:12 PM

It wouldn't surprise me at all to see New Orlenas -10 on the road. people will pound the crap out of it.

GunShard · 12-27-10, 02:39 AM

I would take advantage of the 10 points.

Wreckloose · 12-27-10, 02:40 AM

Seahawks would be double digits, rams no.

gamble · 12-27-10, 02:44 AM

the rams at home won't be +10, that would be easy money

MCherry281 · 12-27-10, 08:05 AM

Saints @ Seattle would be brutal. I think I read in all of Seattle's losses they lost by 15 or more!

VegasInsider · 12-27-10, 08:31 AM

The Saints will kill STL in the dome. Might a little tougher going to Seattle and playing at Qwest

Hoja Verdes · 12-27-10, 08:37 AM

It will be Saints -7.5, immediately bet to -8 after open. Mark it 8, dude.

7.5 looks about right to me

I don't see the public driving any lines, not these days.

How many big faves actually get bet up? Not very often anymore, the line usually goes down.

d2bets · 12-27-10, 09:27 AM

7.5 or 8. Should be teased to death.

Monte · 12-27-10, 02:16 PM

Seattle vs Saints or GB, i would hammer every line that is lower than -9...
tbh i still cannot see why they have been only +6 in Tampa, i had this capped at around -10 Bucs, just dun get it i mean iam no NFL expert by all means but you can see from a mile away that this team will get destroyed by all good teams, without any exception.

you just got lucky that Hassleback got injured that's all.

pavyracer · 01-03-11, 10:13 AM

opened 10.5

VegasInsider · 01-03-11, 10:16 AM

Yep, just saw that NOR -10.5 (-105). Let the discussion begin..

agharah1 · 01-03-11, 10:19 AM

Keep in mind New Orleans has never won a road playoff game. Ever.

Meaningless. The Saints have played 3 road playoff games in their franchise history:

1990: Saints(8-8) @ Bears(11-5) -6 1/2. Bears 16 Saints 6. Anyone care to guess the QBs for that game?

2000: Saints (10-6) @ Vikings (11-5) -8. Vikings 34 Saints 16.
2006: Saints (10-6) @ Bears (13-3) -2 1/2. Bears 39 Saints 14.

So, of these 3 games, the 2006 NFC Championship game is the only one that featured any of the Saints current roster. So, we should keep in mind the Saints traveling to Chicago for an NFC championship game from years ago when handicapping this Saints @ Seahawks game?

texashighroller · 01-03-11, 10:59 AM

Saints def will decide this one, if the saints take seattle lightly i could see problems in this one

eberetta1 · 01-03-11, 11:10 AM

I don't see it if they play a wildcard team. Hopefully, they are eliminated before it comes to that. They get to hang up a banner saying they are champs, lol. So much for the Wild West. More like Wussy West.
