dear fellow bottom feeders,

5d has over 2:25 for the national anthem at +160. was +165, sorry for that.

bovada has under 2:25 for the national anthem at -140. though you can only max it once.

join me in freerolling the over, we can all go buy a case of bud light and celebrate when the opera singer chick holds every note longer than anyone ever has in the history of singing the national anthem.

note: shoutout to nyjets15. he finds these stupid arb/soft-side props. i'm the stupid one that bets them.

gl, and god bless america.

Someone with more experience explain why the -2's haven't all turned into -3's by now? Sharps keep holding that number?

A move from Denver -2 to Denver -3 would be more than twice as big a move as Denver pk moving to Denver -2.

It had moved on my book to -3 +110 (with SEA +3 -130). Now it's back to -2.5 -105 and +2.5 -115.

The line already moved so much. I would be kind of shocked if it went to +3.5

The "Over" on the game time temp of 32 is getting juiced more and more (now at -150 @ Bovada) as the forecasts calling for a kickoff temp of 36 pile up...

i thought this was an interesting betting angle.... but i got moved to low content, so no one cares who wins the matchup between the "best" safety in the game and MAnning?

MY BAD.... the first number to score, odd or even is so much more interesting.....

I rely on you gamblers to verify that this is the best prrop bet ever and if you run a gambling site and you use it, please remember where you got the idea from!

Classic Confrontation, NEW SCHOOL vs OLD SCHOOL

Manning Vs. Sherman.... Betting lines in poll....

New JACK from Compton VS Southern Established Icon

1)
Is Peyton Smart enough to avoid Sherman for the whole game?

risk- you validate him and take his "ALI' act and credibility to a new level and the old world order can't allow this?
subtext.. this is a clssic genius versus genius confrontation.... who wins, the bragging, self annoited best corner or the humble "coach on the field..... Manning avoiding sherman seems like the odds on fave here, set this line at 105 or 110

2)
REFS make questionable calls to keep the NEW JACK down, ala "longest yard" and preserve order in the universe and keep the narratice as it is... that football is the ultimate TEAM game and one man can't make a difference because the Geniuses who coash will find other ways to exploit the TEAM weaknesses

3) Peyton goes after him and wins

4) Sherman the game tape watcher and genius out foxes the fox and finds a way to pick manning off or set Welker up....

THIS IS GONNA BE SWEET!!!!!

Second side bet category... Welker Cheap Shots Sherman and Belechik is proven right, welker gets suspension, Belechik is the real dark Emporer

No. No one cares about a prop bet that cannot be quantified, much less not even offered at any shop. This thread is about people looking to find an edge in the markets. You're yammering about $hit that doesn't have a market.

Ya I like it too, good luck.

One thing I'm puzzled by is people taking Denver -2, and the under. Am I incorrect in assuming that for Denver to win, they probably need something like 27 points? 27-21 is the over, I don't see the 2 happening very often. I could certainly get behind something like 24-21 Seahawks.

Thanks, man. Same to you. Trying to build the roll for March Madness.

I don't have an opinion on either side. What I see (fwiw) is that both teams really got emotionally up for last week's games. Peyton "proving himself" against Brady and Seattle going against their rivals and looking for payback for last season. I think the 2 weeks off plus staying a week in this iceberg they call NYC for a week is bound to take the wind out of their sails to a certain extent.

I'm not all that sold on Manning as a big time money player. People were still calling him a choke artist before last week. Seattle has a young team that is bound to be in awe of the moment. All of this leads me to believe that there will be some miscues and tentative plays at the start. I definitely love the under for the first half here. The heavy winds at the meadowlands will dampen Manning's passing attack plus I think Sherman is gonna be a HUGE factor. However, I don't think Wilson will be able to capitalize as much on this. This leads me to call it under. 20-13 Seattle. Marshawn Lynch is MVP.

Just my take.

In every way I look at this game.. I just don't know how everyone thinks Seattle has no chance.

Coach - Tie (?)
QB - Denver
Defense - Seattle
Offense - Denver
Special Teams - Seattle

And you're getting 2.5 points? I think it's an easy pick to go with Seattle. In all honesty I think it'll come down to how Denver's defense plays, not their offense. If Denver's defense somehow stuffs Marshawn and keeps Wilson to a manageable level, they will win. But I don't see Denver scoring anywhere near as many points as people think they will in this game. Seattle can move the ball, I think it'll all come down to how their offense plays, as we know their defense is pretty tough. Plus Wilson fumbled on the first play of the game last week and it should give him something to think about going into this game.

It just seems to me that Seattle has a better chance of blowing out Denver than the other way around. Everything says bet Seattle here.

Disclaimer : I thought Carolina would win against SF and was completely wrong.

Denver will win 34 to 17. All you guys betting Seattle and the under are caught up in the moment.

I think its pretty obvious this game is going to come down to the Denver defense vs Seattle offense matchup. While the glamor of this game is coming from the Denver offense vs Seattle D matchup, thats not where the game is going to be won.

Within the Denver D vs Seattle Offense matchup, I think Denver's D holds the slight edge. Seattle's offensive production has been very one dimensional this postseason via Marshawn Lynch as Russel Wilson has played pretty average the past few games. Not only has Russel Wilson been struggling to get a potent aerial attack going, but he hasn't been getting any help from his offensive line either who has allowed more sacks than any other team this postseason.

Seeing how one dimensional the majority of Seattle's offensive production is, and how Pete Carroll refuses to stop running the football even when they are getting stuffed continuously, I think Denver's D holds edge here.

Denver's defense was ranked 8th in run defense throughout the regular season and that is where they shine. On top of that, Denver's defense is probably spending about 80% of their time preparing for Marshawn Lynch so there are going to be very few surprises come game time. Denver is going to make Russel Wilson beat them with his arm, and even with Percy Harvin back in for about 3 plays before he gets knocked out again, I don't think Russel has it in him.

It's going to be a nail biter but that's my mini-write up to why I think Denver holds some value. Everyone is on Marshawn Lynch's balls, and I'm sure at some point in the second half he will find a hole and break for a big run, but Denver is going to be very prepared for him and Denver's run defense is nothing to sneeze at.

I think Seattle is going to find a way to feature plenty of Harvin, and probably have Rustle run the option. I think Denver is going to get a lot of looks they haven't seen yet.

The question is how effective is Harvin really going to be considering his status throughout the year? Everyone thought he was going to be the X-factor in the New Orleans game and we all saw what happened there.

I'm sure Pete Carrol has a few tricks up his sleeve, but so does every coach on both sides of the ball when it comes to the Super Bowl.

Well Harvin ran really bad in that game. He took a shot that in most games is easily a 15 yard penalty. I think with 2 weeks off he'll be good for 15-20 snaps.
