The NFL is Rigged - Week 7

[Loren78]

Its week 7 folks.... You know the drill...I believe every week there are games that just are not on the level....Rigged.? Yes...not all of them...in fact, barely any of them...but I look to find the few out of the bunch that are...a line looks out of sorts...books need the other side....theres bound to be some funny business...going on...QB gets a case of fumbalitis as soon as he gets into the redzone...Refs get flag happy....lolol...etc etc.....

Sometimes its just a case of who Vegas needs more than anything else...somehow, someway...I find that when I bet this way, i usually come out the winner...Cap the games the way you normally cap...stats, numbers, trends, players, coaches...do what you do...but when thats all said and done, don't forget to take a look a thread like this one....unforseen variables can and do often factor in...with that said...a couple of questions....


Baltimore Ravens @ Miami Dolphins

Line - Miami -3

I don't really have a problem with this line, in fact, I can't think of any reason why I should not want to take Miami at this price...they are 11th ranked in passing and rushing yards...and their at home...Its an obvious choice...isn't it? Of course there is that Raven Defense....Several of the books sit at -3 while a few dropped a half point to 2½...

No confidence in Miami? even though they are getting just over 60 percent of the action...? lol.......As tempting as the Dolphins look....me thinks I'l go the other way...


New Orleans Saints @ Carolina Panthers

Line - Panthers -3

LOL... Why is a team who lost at home to the Vikings 2 weeks ago, only a 3 point dog to a Panthers team perfectly capable of beating them by TD or more? These people are telling you more with this line than I believe they intended to....Am I a fool? Am I to take the Panthers at home with a cheap price simply because its the easier thing to do?

Seattle Seahawks @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Line - Tampa -10½

Am I to believe that this same Seattle team that was blown out by the Giants and the Packers, at home, is now an 11 point dog to a Bucs team that beat the Carolina Panthers by 3 touchdowns just last week..? lol...Garcia has taken the realms once again....I don't see any reason why TB cannot win this by 2TD's minimum...Seattle is the 31st ranked passing offense in the league....how will they score? I really don't see Seattle covering unless...of course...they get a little help from their friends...lol...

 

[MikRetSam]

surprised the miami/balt line is going down a bit, i thought this line would be closer to 4, miami has looked good this year and balt still cant score, miami -2- or nothing ......

pub seems to be taking the pts with n.o. due to the performance of these teams last week....... ill take caro -2- at home

10- is too much to lay in an nfl game, sea is a bad road team, but even frye could cover this ......... im staying away from this one, unless i could tease tb-2- or 3

Balt will beat Miami... Let everyone jump on Miami but Balt will bounce back on defense and do enough on offense to get a "W"

 

[HighFlyinKilla]

Saints will beat Carolina. Nothing shady needs to happen. You need stop judging teams by won/loss records and the way they played previous weeks against a different team. New week and new matchup. I guess you think the line should be 7. Thats a square way of handicapping, so you justify your loss by crying fix or rigged when it happens.

The obvious rigged game to me would be Chicago only giving 3 points to a lousy Minnesota team. I think the past 3 games Minnesota played was fisshy, setting up this straight up win over the Bears

 

[Loren78]

Tennessee Titans @ Kansas City Chiefs

Line Titans -8½

They say that laying double digits in the NFL is usually a recipe for disaster....unless its the 2008 Titans against the 2008 Kansas City Chiefs...Did anybody see the Chiefs in week 5 against Carolina...? 34-zipppo....Give me one reason why I should back this piss poor miserable excuse for a Pop Warner team....

Denver 19 - Kansas 33

lol........hmmmm?

It's possible...I do not like this game however...there is something fishy going on with the line...

 

[vijaysinger]

Hey! How about the Faiders only getting 3 points against Farve.

 

[Loren78]

Hey! How about the Faiders only getting 3 points against Farve.

Truth be told..I think the Raiders can beat them without the Refs or anybody else for that matter...Farve is not Rivers...but I won't be playing it because the Jets are one of those story book teams this year...I don't bet their games at all...Bengals were supposed to cover last week...thats why they were trying to hit that endzone until the very last millasecond...Jets are special this year...

Chiefs always play tough at Arowhead regardless of thier record and how bad the media wants you to think they are. Chiefs are a home dog which is always a good play. Titans don't blow anyone out or score a lot of points they win defensive struggles. Line is too high because the Titans are undefeated so they're taxing the squares who only see the undefeated record.

Stop explaining to him. He doesn't understand. Just let him be already. Stop wasting your time. It's pointless.

Dont compare Denver and Tenn.. .Big mistake!!! This is a bad matchup for KC... they cant stop the run and the Tenn defense is loads better than the Broncos!!!

You should love Indie even if the game's rigged Peyton's such an asshole he'll cover anyway.

If I were playing that game...Indy would be the play...but not because the game is rigged...Indy has been throwing games all year...and will continue to later on but not tomorrow....

I guess those losses had nothing to with Peyton missing preseason and coming off surgery or Dallas Clark being out.
