Indy -3 over Cincy

bblight · Aug 29, 2003

My record for the preseason is horrendous; it's something like 14-20 - but I'm 2-0 on my 223 billion star picks.

@ Indy -3 vs Cincy
This game falls into the 22 billion star category - all of the trends and systems favor Indy or are against Cincy. These situations tend to win about 80% of the time. This will be my last preseason wager - I want my very bruised ego to go out with a win!

Good luck!

I like this one too - Its late in the 3rd now and its still tied.

Its up to the bottom stringers now...

Cincinnati scores in the 4th and is down by 1 after the TD. Why would they go for a 2-point conversion instead of x-tra point for the tie?????

Common practice in Exhibition season.

I suppose it gives them practice for those situations.

Thanks General.

Teams go for two because the last thing they want to do is go into OT.

This game was unbelievable. Cincy out gained Indy 500+ yards to about 150 yards for Indy. Indy's only scores came on a 95 yard kickoff return, a 93 yard int. return and a 67 yard fumble recovery. Not only that but Cincy botched three field goals with bad snaps, the last of which Dorsch had enough common sense to down the ball because it was third down. So, they get another try. This time the snap is good but the field goal is missed. No problem, there is a penalty. Another try, snap is good and they miss the field goal again. Unbelievable.
