could not agree any more. the Colts will have 3 home playoff games this year

fightingillini · Answer

Definitely not one to wager against Manning

Saints and Ravens around 16/1 looking juicy to me as well

Think both helped themselves out in the draft. Saints were banged up at RB last year heading into the playoffs. If Ingram can halfway pan out they could have a real nice running game. See what happens with Bush. Maybe he will take less money and go back to the Saints. Keep being a nice decoy, slot receiver, X factor, etc.

See what Flacco and company are made of this year. While troubled, think the pick of CB Smith was a steal so late in the first round. Drafted WRs in the 2nd and 3rd round, if Torrey Smith can get the hands to match his speed watch out.

ATLANTA FALCONS @ 16/1 is great value if you ask me

13-3 record last season was impressive however they bombed in a bad loss to the SB champs in the playoffs

they gave up a heck of alot in the draft to get j.jones (WR) pick 6 so he would want to be pretty special

once again the offense will carry them and i believe it will be a long way

misfit_aka · Answer

AFC = Ravens....NFC = EAGLES or bears would be my top 2

Dawnmarie · Answer

Saints in nfc as long as they beat Tampa both times

Packers if they stay healthy

afc i have to go with hmmmm

my fav team is cooked steelers super bowl losers most always get knocked out in playoffs

Chiefs better defense would solidify thier chances

Patriots maybe must really perform better on defense

anthony costanzo is 1 of 2 missing pieces on the colts offense the colts dont give up many sacks but thats not just because of the O-line its because of mannings quick release. costanzo will significantly help manning all thats needed is a decent RB surely they will fix this problem

browndog · Answer

a good time to get your bets on is during free agency/trade period if a good team can add a couple of good players it can make all the difference

which teams have money to spend on free agents?

chillinmcm · Answer

Colts do not have the best QB anymore, the Packers do and that point will be proven to everyone this year, if it hasn&#x27;t already. The Colts started their fall from the top last year and I think that continues to get worse this year. Their schedule is not easy by any stretch, and D will continue to be an issue. Also the injury bug will probably hit them again this year, Manning will have to be perfect for them to get 3 home playoff games, which they will not get. Houston is going to be tough this year with Wade Phillips running the D.

chillinmcm · Answer

Also ask yourself this can the Colts beat these teams potentially ON THE ROAD in the playoffs? Pats, Ravens, Jets, Steelers? I don&#x27;t think so, maybe the Ravens but not the other 3. The AFC will probably have the same playoff makeup as last year, the only differences I see are potentially Houston in over the Colts, and SD in over the Chiefs. The other 4 are 99.9% the same.

I am rolling on the floor laughing my ass off right now at your ignorance. The last time the Ravens beat the Colts was in 2001, since then they have lost 9 consecutive meetings. The colts have exorcised their demons i.e. the patriots. Not scared of Bill anymore. And the colts won&#x27;t be playing on the road come playoff time, have you checked out their cake schedule this year? Just to remind you, the jags and titans (whom the colts play twice... not sure if they give you that kind of information in canada) are starting rookie QB&#x27;s and are looking toward the future. Also, not sure if you noticed this, but last year the Colts struggled because of their porous offensive line. Now that they drafted Costanzo and Ben Ijalana, this should give Peyton Manning more than 1 second to throw the ball. With time, Peyton is the best QB in the league hands down. Watch him this year, you might learn a thing or two.

Ok bud, your ignorance is thinking the Colts will continue to win that division every year until the end of time, hmmmm didn&#x27;t Cincinnati win their division in 2009, oh and go 6-0 in their division? Bet you saw that one coming. Nothing&#x27;s impossible. Yes we gets lots of information about the NFL up here in Canada, hey we even have the internet, shocking to you I guess, more ignorance on your part. The Colts did struggle last year because of their offensive line, and they did address that in the draft, not disagreeing with that. Their defense or lack there of will still be their downfall this year.Gabbert will not be starting over Garrard this year genius, oh and Locker? You really think he`s going to start, I guess you`ve never heard of this little thing called free agency. Peyton is the 2nd best QB in the league and that will be proven this year. Not counting them out by any means I just think they will continue to digress this year as they did last year. They were in danger of missing the playoffs late in the season. My opinion GL to you this year.

chillinmcm · Answer

Not really, Houston`s offence is there no doubt about that, were did they struggle on defense, they were last or close to last in almost every category. Enter Wade who is a defensive specialist. He failed as a head coach for the same reason Singletary and McDaniel&#x27;s did, because none of them are head coaches, their strengths are as coordinators. Houston draft was focused around defense, their D will be stronger this year and they will surprise teams.

PrimeTimeBoys · Answer

I actually like Houston over the Colts in week 1

chillinmcm · Answer

just like last year, they killed the Colts, no doubt scsiegel (he`ll probably blindly bet them all season long) and most of the public will be pounding the Colts in week 1. Houston is going to surge this year, Wade is underrated as a defensive coordinator because everyone only remembers him as a failure as the head coach of the Cowboys. Houston D will be much improved this year. The offence is already there, hopefully they get over the hump this year!

Detroit Lions ..............will be the Super Champ

Want to make a bet on matchbook? Week 1 5k? Or is that too rich for your cheap canadian filth?

Stockdale · Answer

Dallas will be a force this year. Watched them last year and things just didnt click early on which derailed the entire season. They will be my big bet pre season. Smaller bets on Atlanta and Jacksonville as a big outsider who should shorten during the year to lay off
