We are on the same page on the sides.......thing is, I could have gotten Seattle -7 (+105) when the lines were put up but I wasn't quite sure of either game until I looked into them, by then, it was -7.5, it won't make a difference IMO tho, Seattle will dominate them........gl!
Seattle -7 would have been wonderful. Like you said i believe as well -7.5 is enough, rodgers is still a little gimpy and the seahawks will shut him down. I think they win by atleast 10 or more, on the other hand i believe indy is hot right now and can easily cover the -7, GL to you as well.
The key to a Colts’ win is ball possession and their rushing attack. With Darrelle Revis and Brandon Browner lurking in the secondary, the Colts must find other ways to move the ball down the field. While Indianapolis deserves credit for beating Denver and advancing to the conference championship, the Colts gave up six receptions and 53 yards to Broncos tight Julius Thomas, who has dealt with an ankle injury for weeks. Colts defense has played well, though, shutting down Manning and the Broncos for only 211 passing yards and one touchdown. Add in the fact that Indianapolis held Dalton and Cincinnati’s offense to just 155 yards and zero touchdowns passing, and Brady will be facing one of the hottest defensive units in the league. I don’t think the Patriots will crush the Colts 42-20 like they did in Week 11, but I’m predicting them to win.Gronkowski has proven to be a difficult match-up for most NFL teams, and the Colts are no exception. Gronk has 11 catches and three touchdowns in his last two games against the Colts defense, including going 4 for 5 for 71 yards and a score this season. He also made a catch against four different defenders covering him: Vontae Davis, Mike Adams, D’Qwell Jackson and Sergio Brown. An important aspect of the game will be if the Patriots can capitalize off of Indianapolis’s propensity to give away the football. They currently rank 29th in the league with 1.9 turnovers per game. Keep an eye on New England to turn it up a notch during the second quarter, when they average a league-best 11.4 points per game. Brady’s experience in big games will be his biggest edge, and the offensive players around him will step up when needed the most. As well as the Colts have played this postseason, Brady is poised to lead the Patriots to yet another Super Bowl appearance. My prediction: Colts 27, Patriots 35

Thank you for the information Harry. Sorry i didnt get back to you sooner. I completely agree that indy loves to give the ball away!! I believe the NE patriots will come out guns blazing & make mistakes leading to a low scoring first half (NE: 13-Indy: 10 halftime score prediction). Luck will keep the colts in the game forsure, but will end up losing. I dont think it will be an 8 point game though. 27-24 NE gets the win.
If Seattle and New England both end up in the superbowl, which most likely will happen, i will take Seattle as long as the line is -9 or less..as far as the total goes i would say anything over 52 or less is a good bet! We will see. Mathew: I think Indy covers, but that is just my opinion. Cant wait for these games to start!!
