Yeah I know they still have to play next week but will prob be Phil Oak...what do you think line will be?
Philly vs. Oakland Superbowl.... guess the line
- Thread starter Palmetto Pimp
- Start date
TB o/u 37
Philly-5 1/2
Final----- Tampa 24
Philly 13
I have to say these are my 2 favorite teams so I will be happy to see either of them in the Super Bowl,but would prefer TB.

They posted some of the potential spreads in the paper the other day (from LVSC who makes the lines) and Oak was -3.5 over Phil. Of course all could change depending on injuries next week etc....but I see that line holding between 3-4....if that's the matchup.
gotta win next week, but would love to see
E A G L E S as a road dogg
LETS GO E A G L E S !!!!!!!!!!!
dont sell out the titans, check injuries
oak - 8 ????

If Philly is getting 3 or more points vs Oakland I am on the Eagles in a heartbeat. Sure the game is in California. But the Eagles have a far superior D. Everyone loves offence, but give me the better defensive team getting a FG or more...easy choice I think.
I haven't seen any preview lines, but here's what I predict they would be for each of the 4 possible matchups:
Philadelphia 42
Oakland -2? -130
Tampa Bay 43?
Oakland -5?
Philadelphia -7
Tennessee 41?
Tampa Bay -3? +110
Tennessee 43
I for one won't assume yet that this is a Phil/Oak SB.
{edit} For a bit of fine tuning...bumping up Philly to -7 over Tenn, adjusting ML on Oak over Philly to -130, and bumping up Oakland to -5? over TB.
My line of thinking: I was originally thinking of giving more pts to TB and in particular Tenn in these matchups. However, if either of these teams makes it to the SB then they have pulled off a major road upset to get there. That should influence the line in itself and keep it fairly low. Maybe Oak should be -6 vs TB? (Liking the points if that's the case!). TB -4 vs Tenn? :shrug:
I'm also starting to think if I can get that SB future on Under 46 it might be smart to lock it in now, if that # is still available this week. Either way you're getting one very good defensive team making it to this year's game.

Just throwing something out there on the totals. OAK's 'D' has really been good lately. They put it together late in the season. The totals might be in the 41-42 range, but I'd bet under down to about 39.
I think spreads for the Superbowl are usually too influenced by what happens in the Championship games because they know they get a lot of action from people who just start tuning in right about now.
If this were regular season, I think you'd probably see OAK +4 at Philly and Philly +2 at OAK. Knocking off the 3 for the neutral field gets me to the 1 or 1.5. You might see TENN +5 at PHI. PHI @ TENN was -1 in Week 1. So maybe 4.5 is too many on the neutral field. Tenn lines might be shaded down if they look good against OAK.
I think some of your Oakland guesses are a bit high. They were 5.5 to the Jets at home this weekend, and now 7.5 to the Titans. I don't think they'd be 2.5 - 5 over PHI and TB. JMO, though. Also depends if they think SD is a home field advantage for the Raiders. Actually, my line would be about OAK +3 and OAK Pick 'Em, but those won't be the Vegas lines.

I'm guessing Oakland will not be favored by more than 2.5. They will want Oak money since Philly has a better defense and will stop the Raiders passing game.
I would say Oakland anywhere from 2.5 to 3.5, depending on what kind of style points the teams earn this weekend.
oak -5.5
total 39.5
phily to win ML +175:moon:
score 20-14
all defencive TD's by phila and 2 FG's, mcnab will not be the factor, but the E_A_G_L_E_S DEFENCE!!

OAKLAND BY 7
OAKLAND BY 7
OAKLAND WILL HAVE TO BE AT LEAST 5 1/2 TO 7!!
I SAY 7 & 42
IF THEY CAN GIVE THE JETS 5 1/2 AND TENN 7 1/2, IT HAS TO BE ABOUT 7? TENN AND JETS, ARE BETTER TEAMS THEN PHILLY OR TB!
THE AFC IS MUCH BETTER, AND THE RAIDERS ARE THE MOST WELL BALANCED TEAM, IN THE NFL'
THE RAIDERS HAVE TO MUCH, AND WILL WIN AND COVER THE NEXT TWO GAMES.
I HOPE YOU GUYS ARE RIGHT WITH THE LOWER SPREAD, BUT I DON'T SEE IT??
JUST MY THOUGHT?

Hopefully this WILL be the Super bowl. God forbid if its the Bucs & Titans. I'll stay home & wash the car.
