Laying 3 dimes on the Vikings +4 on Sunday

[Wrecked]

Detroit is getting a lot more respect than they deserve.

I say the vikings cover the +4. I'll wait until gameday, the spread will be +5 due to the public on the lions.

[wtf]

Doesn't mean shit, teams are totally different I hate stupid stats like that they throw out on ESPN. Has nothing to do with the two teams playing Sunday

i personally agree with this post, but dont those big brained fuks in the think tank live and die with stats like this

in any case will be tailing LB on this one

[chrisharvard01]

2 things:
-lets see a screenshot or its another one of your airbets
-i pray you lose because you are annoying as hell

public isn't gonna drive that line to 5 lol, it's going to be people like me who actually bet more than 20$ on football games. very clueless u are

is that you, ghost?

[dodger33]

How many of you haters have seen both Detroit games and both Viks games and not just highlights on ESPN. If you knew anything about football you would find that indeed the team getting points here is the right play. Good luck Laker!

[dontbuythehook]

I actually have 3k on minny myself here and grabbed +4 when LB posted about it. I immediately agreed and knew he would be right about the movement so I didn't wait for 'the public to pound detroit'

[PAULYPOKER]

Minnesota is probably the biggest no brainer play you'll get this year so I would take advantage of this opportunity if I were you people and load up on it!!

[Numb]

Although not as big as Buffalo +6, +5, then down to +4 in week one, I am very heavily into Minnesota +4 this week.

I'm with ya big time, also on the Over 21 Viking total team points.

This is the best play in my opinion for the week.

[agharah1]

All the Lions have done since the start of last season is cover spreads better than anyone else. If anything people's hesitance to back them is already factored into the line. Remember all those people who said last week they wouldn't lay 8 with the Lions vs. any team?

[andywend]

When I see a thread like this, the ultra-smart move would be to fade, fade, fade.

However, its Lakerboy's thread and he's probably the only poster on the entire forum that actually knows what he is doing when it comes to sports handicapping.

Until he steers me wrong, I'm on the Vikings.

Why is that?

Minnesota last week had a nice meltdown at home. Is there a statistic as to when a team is up by 17 at half and ends up losing, they automatically cover the next week?

[no1here]

Ride the wave or get out of the water

[Romanov]

Pinny has the +3.5 juiced at -116. this thing will be at +3 or maybe even +2.5 by kickoff

[face]

the vikings fukking suck. how are they gonna cover? lions are just better at most of the positions.

I've seen both games for both teams & must say I'd be interested to hear your logic as to why the 0-2 collapsing Vikings are the play? I know divisional games tend to be tight--but if your hanging your hat on RLM or fading the public or in a "must win game " take the points then I am not a fan of your logic.

QB: Stafford > Mcnabb by a little, and he could get injured any play this season
RB: Best < Peterson this will be the difference in the game
WR: Lions > Vikings but Percy and the Vikes TEs are no slouches
OL: Lions haven't given up a sack but they haven't played a great D line yet
DL: Lions < Vikings Suh is great but I'll take Kevin Williams, Jared Allen, and Robison over the rest of the Lions D
LB: Lions < Vikings EJ Henderson and Chad Greenway are both monsters, Lions have no namers
CB: Lions = Vikings neither have anything special and both could get torched on any given day. But Winfield is the best CB on either team
SS/FS: Lions > Vikings maybe by a small notch but not by much.

You're relying on Stafford to Calvin that's all the Lions really have that can win this game. The Vikings are not going to collapse 3 games in a row they will gameplan differently and make sure it doesn't happen. The dome will be much louder in MN than it was in DET obviously so Stafford is going to have a harder time communicating. Allen will pressure him and Vikes win.

[k13]

Stafford will be sacked for the first time this season.

Prediction.

[NardVa]

Lions can't run and can't stop the run and that plays into what Minnesota likes to do which is run and stop the run. If Minny can run the ball on offense they can control clock and keep the Lions pass happy offense off the field. If Minny on defense takes away the Lions run game that makes the Lions one dimensional which plays into what Minnesota likes to do which is rush the passer.

What Evidence is there to support this claim.All they have done is collapse in the 2nd half of games.

[loopydude11]

in 2 games... not like this has been going on for years. Leslie Frazier will get it corrected.

[lakerboy]

Don't base everything off the first two games. The vikes are the right play.

[whoisROWDY]

I took the Vikes too but only got +3.. Caliente book TJ

[TheMoneyShot]

3k early on in the NFL season? Hmmmmmmm Honestly... I think you take Detroit or just stay away from this game. BOL though

[late4thegame]

As a Lion fan, I'm taking the Vikes. Love the Lions and look forward to even better things to come. However, this is a road game against a desperate divisional rival. Don't see them covering 3.5....it will be a tight game. Also not convinced the Lions can stop AP.

Exactly, I bet 80% of the people that like Minny this week, liked KC last week.

Why are they the right side? Trends? Or is it just a hunch on your part? You're right, don't go off the last two weeks, go off the last 10 games as far as Detroit is concerned which they covered the spread and won 6 SU. But their momentum is just supposed to stop this week? It could for sure, but you're taking a big reach IMO.

You answered your own question:

[jcubs55]

I pounded the Lions last week for three units. I instantly put 3 units on the Vikings +4 right when the lines came out for this week.

[dontbuythehook]

in before steve is the new brahma

[Goat Milk]

good luck on this one. i think you're on the right side but the lions won the last 4 games of the year last year, i think all 4 in the preseason, and starting 2-0, have they won 10 straight? The vikings were projected before the season to be the worst team in that division and i don't doubt it.

Lions might get their 1st round pick back this week too. Any team that can control the line of scrimmage can win games, but its probably going to be a fg type game. AP will do his thing, you just have to hope Mcnabb can throw a bunch of screens and short passes and not try and think he can stay in the pocket for 5 seconds.

sometimes mcnabb hits like 2 passes in a row and thinks he's on fire and he starts getting out of control

Guys. If Goat isn't sure then vikes is def the huge play, but I would have torn up my ticket if he put money on the vikes too

[BettingWizard]

We just need Lang to be on the lions too and it's all-in material

[sweethook]

why you so crazy , you cant win anything with this type call , gl

[SpreadSniper]

If this play loses i will NEVER POST on this SITE again Vikes +4 -110 (30x) All you haters get ready to see me leave forever.

You'll always be a stand-up guy to me bro, regardless..... You took the time to teach a man to fish, and for that I will always be grateful.... ALWAYS

I don't think it's a bad play, at all. Good luck. Why leave forever?

The guy loves attention....

No i wont be back. That is a promise.

guy, dont be an asshole and leave yer sheep high and dry?? wtf will we do?

+4 -105 at Pinny, if someone asks you why all gamblers loose just show them this thread.

Now Im not sure how long you've booked with pinny, but winners typically dont enjoy such limits - HOPEFULLY you will understand one day... hopefully....

I thought he was pretty high up the ladder in Islam last I checked? But do you believe in Lakerboy, religion aside?

LOL

I dont think the line changes much. Everyone said Titans would close at -7 last week as well. I think the number i got is just fine. Thakns for the luck wishes

Can lead a horse to water, cant make em drink tho can ya?

ravens/titans II here we go again. i promise i wont even look twice at the lions this week. Minny or no play good luck LB

Not fun being on the opposite side of a guy who's opinion you respect....
