Why the Seahawks?

[iahawk06]

I love the Raiders -5.5? Why would anyone wanna play the Seahawks? I don't understand, could someone give me some reasons why not to take the Raiders?

I like the :
Raiders -5.5

Eagles -4 ( the Vikings Defense is horrible, thats another one I can't figure out why play the Vikings?)

Ever heard of
1. Let down factor for Raiders
2. ever heard of getting points at home and facing a Division Rival???
Somethings are not as easy as they look-especially when your looking at betting Favs.
Luck, Spanky...

Yeah, I heard of all that. But, sometimes you have to throw all that shit out the window on some games and look at who the better team is. Just like in the Philly -Viking game, alot of people liked the Vikes because of their record following bye weeks. But when you suck that bad..it don't mean a dam thing. The Eagles are huge today, the Vikes have no defense at all, if the Bucceneers can lay over 40 points on your defense, then YOU SUCK!

Now, as for the Raiders, I see no let down tonight, and many of you will be disappointed in how easy it will be for the Raiders against an animic offense of the Seahawks! I'm playing the Raiders along with my Eagles pick I already took

!

To each their own and good luck!
I got burnt changing my mind to much in college football yesterday, I gonna go with what I like today

HAWK, you are right,listen to YOURSELF !!!
YOU pay if you lose,nobody is going to help you (except me if you bet UNDER PITT. and got beat)-ha!!
If you LOVE a game that much -stick with it. You'll kill yourself by changing your mind listening to others that maybe bet 10% of what you do ..
Good luck-Philly looks very solid on both sides of the ball so far. Spanky...

i am not playing but like the Raiders.....this could be one of those games where everyone asks themselves why they played such a horrible team after the game is over.....it is because it is easy to talk yourself into a play when the bottom line is......Raiders vs. Seahawks

Not so fast, my friend!

What about:

Cleveland...Chicago...Arizona?

Detroit brought home the bacon, but that's about it, I think.

This is not a great static criteria.

I took the Raiders -5.5 at Olympic along with the under and I feel them are the two strongist plays tonight, to go with my Eagles play that I made a killing on!

I honestly can't believe the Raiders are -5 + 100. They have won handling at Indianapolis & Philadelphia, both were difficult spots than Seattle!

Seattle is freaking horrid. The line is down to 4.5 at Gibraltar. Public idiots all over Seattle

Hammer the Silver and Black

good luck

Christmas comes early

 

[yak merchant]

Public idiots, or smart linesmakers begging for Raider money?

 

[RAYMOND_1975]

These seems to be a classic case of betting on a bad team to win for you that already lost by 3 tds to the same opponent already. These guys have no QB, no running game. What am I missing here?>?? I am not trying to bust peoples balls, I should not have said public idiots but the line is now down to 4.5!!! I think it is a steal. Good luck to everyone

On Jack's new "toy", I believe I saw 25-0 players picking Oakland!

And that was at -7 and -6

Check to see if I am mistaken, but that's what I saw!

Oaklands walking wounded.....

Charles Woodson - turf toe
Steve Wisniewski - ankle
Anthony Dorsett - knee
Eric Johnson - broken leg
Jon Ritchie - groin
Elijah Alexander - knee
Randy Jordan - turf toe
Tony Bryant - hip

YYZ, if you like playing FAVS. like most people,you probably had a big day ,going by the games you listed .
I myself usually play totals. I did post a couple of plays I liked today,and one was G.B. The rest were totals and I had a monster day.
When 9 or 10 favs.(like today) cover ,the books get beat and 'joe Public 'is very happy. When it goes the other way, there is usually lots of bitching and broke "chalkers".
Simple to understand the longer you have been around my friend..Spanky...

 

[yak merchant]

Looks like 50%-50% on jacks new toy. I'm going to make the best pick I've made in weeks on this game. PASS.
