Yeah man, I saw the Westgate contest, 962 people on Seattle & only 55 on Ravens.....most lopsided game I've ever seen for the contest.
But I guess you can't blame the contestants for taking Seattle -6.5.....Huge difference from the -13
The folks who are ranked between 50th-150th place in the contest shouldn't be playing Seattle. They should choose another game and hope Baltimore covers the 6.5 pts. They gain nothing by picking with the herd. A lot of people took Detroit too because of the stale line.
Seahawks have never been a good road team when facing non-conference opponents, going 5-22 SU L27, tied with the Vikings for the worst in the NFC since 2002.
Did not seem to bother Seahawks past week when they went to Minnesota(much stronger team than Ravens) and dominated the Vikings 38-7.
agree to a certain point..I'm in 64th a half game out and only a couple of games out of 21st I believe..I took Seattle because it was a play I really liked..I feel I'm close enough to do it.....week 16 or 17 might be a different story...I still have to worry about the people 1-3 behind me too...
Another interesting stat is the Ravens are 14-1 SU home vs. non-conference opponents under Harbaugh.
