Reason why the Seattle/SD line seems so off

[EddieJones]

The line just does not look right in my eyes. According to LT Profits article, Seattle are the biggest dog so far this season. Why? What is the reason. I want to pound Seattle but something looks fishy.

[woodg8]

I don't know why the line is at it is, but I took Seattle anyway, its worth the shot.

[Brock Landers]

seattle is the biggest dog? What do you think Buffalo was last night, also houston on Friday night, both 5 1/2 or 6 point dogs.

It's worth a shot but it's not like the books give money away.. A scrub can turn a preseason game and no one would give a crap. Not saying I think preseason is rigged but half the third/forth string guys could be either betting against themselves or taking money from the mob or whoever and I wouldn't be surprised at all.

[LT Profits]

Seattle WAS the biggest dog when the line was +6.5 (there was even a +7) yesterday. However, it went down today. There have been a couple of +6s this preseason.

[pimike]

GL all I will be at the game and betting Chargers very heavy.

[Sforz]

i just counted 5 teams have been favored by 5 or more points this preseason (going by opening and closing lines).... none of the favorites have covered.

that being said, I'm still on the chargers... although a little less confident now that I see pimike is on them too

I am not a Charger fan, and I kind of like Seattle, but since I'm taking my son, who is a diehard Charger fan, I will throw down a dime on them to root for them. This will make him happy and me happy if they cover.

Seriously, I do believe Chargers care about this game more than Seattle does. Very High Expectations for them in San Diego.

Frye is playing all 4 quarters tonite. Any news on how much Rivers plays? Im going to the game to and I have 4400 on Seattle!

Steel I'll be there. Hook up I'll buy ya a beer. Seattle is not a good bet.

[chipper13101]

Hey, if LT and ZBOIZ say it's Seattle, that's good enough for me.

Moneyline to boot, wow thats ballsy. I'm afraid this is one bet I humbly disagree with Mr. LT

Oh I see, you think because ImJ ewish I wont spend the cash to buy you a beer? Im going with my daughter. Hey do you ever go to Caliente? Adelitas?

[pavyracer]

I have just placed a huge bet on Seahawks. Thanks pimike. I'm fading you like there is no tomorrow.

Damn, I hope you are right. 4400 on hawks.

The fade was on Pirates not Chargers, but ok gl

[Sforz]

i think he meant that you were going to blow 4400 on this game so he'd buy you a beer..

[Steeltown]

nobody knows how long Rivers is playing? I know Frye is playing the whole game.

Dude, wakey wakey........

CHARGERS -5.5 -109 over Seahawks
Matt Hasselbeck is out as Seattle's quarterback for this game (back stiffness.) Third-stringer Charlie Frye will be Hasselback's backup because Seneca Wallace, the 2nd-stringer, is recovering from a groin problem.
Seattle's starting center, Chris Spencer, is also missing because of back trouble.
Are you ready?...Backup center Chris Gray is also out because of back trouble.
Are counting? That's a third-string quarterback behind a third-string center, the two most important positions for any sports bettor.
Chargers' head coach, Norm Turner, figures to use this game to test a lot of his starting players. We expect the Chargers' 'A' players to take the field. Like many coaches, Turner figures to be serious about tonight's third week of preseason. Look for Turner to rest a lot of his starters next week, using Week Four to decide which players to cut from his team.
In our newsletter yesterday we wrote the script in last night's Bills-Colts' game, and we feel at least as good about tonight's game. Pawn your wife's vacuum cleaner if you have to, but get down on this game.

So if the chargers win by 3 your son will be happy and he will wonder why you are crying!!

[pavyracer]

Since when a center is the most important position for a bettor? What a bunch of bologna!

OK, you sold me!! Taking the Chargers! More on 1st half though, so scrubs dont hurt me! GL to us both!

[big joe 1212]

Prop on the Chargers scoring 1st -140. Im on it!!

The centre is pretty much a household name in every NFL city.

QB is the most important then Center. Just watch all the bad snaps tonight. Especially when its a fg or punt.

[pavyracer]

I'm pretty sure the third string center was a standout in college where he came from. You made it look like they just grabbed Joe Blow from the street.

[chipper13101]

No worries on the centre, it'll be either Ben Claxton or Nick Jones, and both have impressive NCAA credentials.

[gm2022]

Looks like Sd the one with Center problems

[Tsoprano]

Lets go Seattle!!

[woodg8]

Great start to the game. That fumble
