Well since GB decided to practice alittle for Det this week. And if Det get's that first win,(Looking that way). Down comes the line and GB will cover. They looked ahead and you could tell it in there play. They will be ready Thursday.
Early thought Det/GB
- Thread starter djv
- Start date
Sorry Dave.....I don't think they will be ready. This team is a joke. I can't believe the way that defense looked in the first half. Pushing people, instead of tackling them, standing by and watching as a team mate makes a tackle, instead of getting in there, too.
Now, they face "the doom of the dome".
I have yet to see a line, but I would guess Green Bay by 8, and 49 for a total.
(I just looked up the line.....7 46')
A team that can't prove it's worth on the road, and they still get respect. I know it's the Lions, but people said the same shit about Atlanta today.
Since this is one of only two games being played Thursday, that line will get played into quite heavily. I believe most of the sheep will back the Packers. But, the pussies who set the line at 7, allow the books to screw with the money instead of the number. (-120/+100, or -125/+105)
I think the world will be thinking, "Hey, the Packers will need to make up for Sunday's loss." Well, that's true.....but they are a weak in the head kind of team. Not well disciplined. They self-destructed today....pure and simple.
This is not a team to back, at this point. Sure, they might win 35-0, but I can't risk it. I strongly urge the rest of you to stay off of them, too.
I heard Frank Winters on the radio Saturday, talking about "home field advantage" in the playoffs. The playoffs?!? Christ, they are 6-2 and have 8 games to play, and they are thinking playoffs?!? That's where the fking problem lies!
Play today's game. These guys have no clue, which is sad for a team with this much experience.
If I fell asleep until Friday, and you told me the Lions got their 1st win against the Packers, I would not be shocked.
A lot needs to happen in the next 3 days, for me to "back the Pack".

Guys I need to look harder now. Det's loss sets number on GB to high. I thought if we got GB for 4 I might take the chance. GB-7 or more is to much. Over can come into play Det throwing ball all over the place. Three things can happen when you do that and 2 are bad.
I Would not be surprised if Det gets thier first win. Brett Farve Plays horrible on the turf as he did against Minn. -7 is to many points to give on the turf. I see the play being in the over with both teams passing.
Looking at GB's remaining games, this may be their Super Bowl!
No way they make the playoffs this season.

Unfortnately I seem to be on the public too much. I am up for the year but I did loose on Green Bay this weekend thinking they would crush Atlanta. I got beat but at least made up for it on Chicago!
I did play 2 road favs on Thursday which has disaster written all over it!
Played GB -6.5 & Denver -7. MY large wager looks too good to be true which means it is! I played a 2 team 6.5 teaser with Pack pick & Denver -.5 Dallas & Detroit both suck and would not shock me in the least if both dogs cover big! I think the books set the lines thinking the public will bet the dogs at home on lines too ggod to be true. Don't see that being the case! Good luck in whatever you play!
