was typical of a divisional playoff game....a bye week team fully rested vs a team coming off a hard fought win .
nothing new or unusual about it..
it's the reason why bye teams get to the Super Bowl so often
Hi OS, am not trying to argue with you, but here is something I took from VSIN analysis.
Market Insights: Will divisional dogs have their day again?
By Josh Appelbaum (VSiN.com)
Bettors should keep several trends in the back of their minds this weekend. First off, we tend to see Divisional Round favorites win but not cover. Since 2003, Divisional Round favorites have gone 40-23 straight up (63.5%), but they've only gone 24-38 ATS (39%).
In other words, this is the best round of the playoffs to bet on dogs. According to data from Bet Labs Sports, playoff dogs are 98-77 ATS (56%) since 2003, but they improve to 38-24 ATS (61%) in the Divisional Round. Big playoff dogs plus 7 or more are 36-24 ATS (60%) in all rounds of the playoffs, including 1-0 ATS last week with the Vikings upsetting the Saints as 7.5-point dogs.
Also, it's a common belief that bye weeks provide a big edge to playoff teams due to the added rest and extra time to game-plan. This may be true for winning the game, but not for covering the spread. Teams coming off a bye are just 43-52 ATS (45%) since 2003.
That being said, you are talking about getting to the Superbowl, which is about straight up wins, not ATS. So you may be right in saying that.

8 first downs
3rd lowest ever in playoff game
Perfect that it comes from this organization
