Hey guys, Saints fan here who bets on football games and 2 games I see potential losses to are Broncos and Giants this yr for you guys. Yes you crippled them in the SB which I had mooney riding on your hawks, but this will be different in betting perspectives. I say potential losses, because while you may eek out a win, youre not covering the spread of either of those games and you should be favs in both of those since theyre home games.
Hmm...you're trying to punk us right?
Not at all. From a betting standpoint it makes absolute perfect sense. You smashed the Broncs in the SB. This was Seattle's FIRST SB EVER! To think the Seahawks will just dominate again when they had never won a SB in franchise history is a bit ridiculous. Im not saying youre going to fall apart. But youre going to be taking a step back. Call it SB hangover or whatever, but 1st time winning teams will sit back a bit. I give you playoffs this yr. I just dont see you getting past the div. rd. But regardless of that, Im strictly talking about the Mannings getting back on you. You see, the NFL will want ppl to think that those teams just dont stand a chance. Now as far as the Broncs game goes? Its possible you win that game again. But betting on the hawks ATS you'd lose. Not to mention week 1. I dotn have any doubt the Hawks win thurdays night. What I have doubt in is them covering the spread. Packers will cover the spread. Ppl will look at last yr and think the pack sucked, so theyll suck this yr. WRONG! Its all about public perception...
The Giants game. You host the Raiders (of all teams after a double road game) which you'll have no prob winng. Will prbably win by double digits and betters will say Eli will get crippled coming to Seattle after the beatdown the Raiders just got! lol Except you forget one thing....you blew the giants 23-0? last yr. Teams that get blown out at home by a team previously are ridiculous ATS when facing them Away. Lets look at the beatdown (A) Carolina put on the Giants in 2009: 41-9. 2010 rolls around and (A)Panthers lose 18-31 again away. Then in 2012 they lost 7-36 and last yr beat the giants 38-0. Now looking at that, While the giants may seem to super dogs coming into Seattle, dont underestimate them. You see, team that went scoreless and their opponents beat them by more than 21 pts and loser was at home and now away, theyre 10-11 at winning the game. But betting on them agaisnt the spread(ATS) in this situation theyre 20-1-0 ATS. 95.2% win % ATS!!!! So if you think the seahawks will play anything like they did last yr, youre mistaken...
