5-1 goes to 1-4 and 1-4 is favored by 4?

and im dumb enuff to think 1-4 will prob cover; I stil think atl is house of cards, but they keep eeking 'em out

KC will be decent play IF Vermeil can hoodwink players into thinking somethig good might still yet happen, otherwise this team has stolen my money 3xs already this year ... will say KC has played the MUCH tougher schedule at this point; their weakest opponent was last year's near Super Bowl winner

anyhow, when I saw that line i had to laugh, public perception, lines and records dont always correlate in the NFL.

Strange line for sure. Personally I don't see why anyone is in a big hurry to bet on those money-burners at this point.

KC's sched has really not been that tough. They lost at home to Houston for gawd's sake. Denver (ok, they appear to be decent), Carolina, Baltimore and Jax is not really that steep. Yet they have one win to their credit and keep on giving points. :confused:

1-4 Carolina is a 3-pt fav over 3-3 San Diego too for that matter. Not as extreme a situation as the other game, but I really think the Panthers are living on past reputation. Their defence has gone a LONG, LONG ways downhill and should be seriously tested here. In fact, going by numbers ONLY, SD has actually allowed fewer PPG (22.7) than Carolina has (23.6). Now that's hard to believe. Drawback for the Chargers is all that travel though.

(Sorry to shift focus away from the KC game so much...back to discussing that one :) ) ....

Well, I for one will be playing the Atlanta ML in that game. I think the public plays KC too much. People looking for KC to win this game is just a wish and thats all, Atlanta will win. This line jumped out to me as well, but I bet their will be even money on it because KC seems to be a "public" favorite nowadays despite their performance this year.

Until KC can prove that they can stop the run, then I'll continue to fade their weak ass.. They couldn't even beat Carolina at home. Vick will run for 150 against them. It really saddens me to talk like this against my team, but ever since Peyton shredded this D in last yrs playoff game, they've been a complete dissappointment!!

ATL is the play here without a second thought!!

Especially good point v. a run oriented Falcons.

Another point is that KC's passing game is WAY down on last year...not sure if the 'public' yet realises.

6.34 ypp...Well down the list.

Atlanta allowing only 3.0 ypr...KC will need to pass to win. Can they?...Stats only suggest no.

Like the Falcons aswell. (Probably take the +4 tho after getting burned by SD on the ML this week :cursin: )

after considering SD more, one of the most underrated teams in NFL betting wise, I think they have played well all year and CAR has played once--in KC-- I wil def. back them again this week
