For the record.
Prop #1..
1. The first completed pass from scrimmage by either team will be OVER or UNDER 6.5 yards?
Just to clarify the prop and to save any controversy - an interception is NOT a completed pass. When a QB throws 10 passes and completes nine of them and the tenth is intercepted his line score will read 9 of 10 completed.
Take for example the line score for Tampa Bay's Bruce Gradkowski today. He attempted 20 passes of which 10 were complete:
Tampa Bay Receiving
J. Galloway 3
M. Clayton 2
M. Pittman 2
M. Alstott 1
E. Graham 1
I. Hilliard 1
He also had 10 incomplete passes - two of which were intercepted. Bottom line is that an intercepted pass is considered an incomplete pass for statistical purposes.
These contests are getting more difficult to grade almost to the point that maybe just drawing a name out of a hat would simplify matters so that everyone would be happy.
Thank you, wilheim..
