nfl playoff thread

a much needed respite from the bowels
where i have been getting my arse handed to me

i freakin love the plays today
and tomorrow for that matter

while i feel it is fair to warn u that i have lost over half my football profits for the season since week 17 and a dreadful bowl performance

i feel the ship is about to right itself with order and sanity restored to the universe

i sense one of those epic runs is abotu to begin
so climb aboard den.....

wildcard round

about a week ago someone posted a question regarding money management
i did not respond to that thread
because i dont have any
when playing with profit
i take enormous risk and essentially fly by the seat of my pants
fortunately it works more often than not

we r about to lay some hurt on the book
cuz i am rolling out most of the bank this weekend


50 unit play
iggles -3

40 unit play
niners-2.5

20 units
chefs+2.5 (bet early)
cinci -6.5


10 unit teasers (pay 2750$)
florida state-2.5
philly+3
cinci-0.5
niners+3.5


chefs+4
iggles+3
iggles under59.5
cicni-0.5


8units
chefs over46
iggles under53.5


actually expected line to go up for the chefs
snagged em at 2.5 as i did with the niners
but thought i could get another 20 units down on plus 3
did not expect them to go to a fave
but i still like them

may all in the den b blessed!

rtoawm

iggles
i hear a lot of chater brees brees brees
foles led the nfl in qbr
i know i won my league in fantasy with foles as qb

but more important
playoffs often are running and defense
particularly in the cold
and yes u need a stud qb
or a guy like flacco to play like a stud for a few weeeks

home team check
running game lesean mccoy check
best qb - statistically that would b foles

throw in fact
new orleans has NEVER won a playoff game outdoors
in fact they generally dont even cover

the aints lost to geno freakin smith and the jets outdoors in the cold

iggles by 11

31-20


niners
i know rogers is back
and he threw 2 picks against my bears sorry ass d
it took a hail mary on 4th and 8 for them to make the playoffs
this is the niners we r talking about
better coach
'infinitely better d
and quite frankly if we want to talk cold weather

who does that favor really?

will rogers b slinging it all over?

will rogers rish running on his medning clavicle(which btw should b aching like hell in the cold)
but cap
who hails from wisconsin will run
and the fudgepackers are his bitches anyway

niners 24-17


chefs
wrong team favored
hit em early
again
running and defense in the playoffs
give me some jamal charles
kc7-1 ats road
if indi line went above 3 i was taking kc ml
now i will lay the points

chefs 30-23


bengals
sd had to get in playoffs by beating the kc junior varsity at home
and only made it because of a refs blown call
now they go to cinci
a west coast team that practices in 80 degree weather
gets a 9am start in below zero weather

oh and cinci was 8-0suats at home
only win by less than 7 was early in year over fudgepackers with mr rogers

do u want your COLD hard cash on phillip rivers with these odds
no
i didnt think so

cinci34-17

love the bengals in teasers too!

prob post some hoops plays in a seperate thread

may all in the den b blessed!

drtony,

As big as you are on chefs and taking account of the huge line move, I would recommend considering a middle. You could kill them if you took Colts +2' and it ended up being a 1 or 2 point game as you would be getting a 5 point swing. It would put you in a no lose situation! Just a thought....

Either way, good luck today!

bigdaddy3213 & drtony,

Not a bad idea. You have a 4 point middle which is fairly decent considering all the close games that have occurred this year.

You can play just a portion of your original wager and you'll be hedging against what has become a pretty big turn around with a chance to hit both bets.

In any event, GLT!

big daddy and sherlock

as a rule
never hedge - cuz i trust my initial plays

BUT
u guys may b on to something
5.5 points is kind of ridiculous

will put 7 units on indi if can get plus 3
a nickel if it stays at 2.5 as it is now - still a 5 point swing

THANK U IN ADVANCE!!!!!
