***BIGGEST WAGER SINCE LAST YEARS SUPER BOWL----SAINTS VS FALCONS***

Lets not forget my Raiders play as well................

yer they actually don't count since there's really no money involved is there now? im sure you were great at lying and still am. if your gonna place fake bets at least make them believable you person, 30 k riding on the falcons to win tommorow night? how is anyone meant to believe that, i have 100 on the saints and ill properly be on the edge of my seat, but 30k , CMON man no one fkn believes you 

Prime - I dont see why you would bet Atlanta so early in the week when playoff implicatons could be (and have been) decided before they actually step on the field...

Now - it appears as though Atlanta does have something to play for, because if they don't win out odds (and get help) are they have New Orleans opening week of the playoffs.  But, considering Michael Turner is nursing a bad groin, I don't see them pushing him at all...

My guess is Detroit goes to GB and beats them next week, considering Rodgers will play no more than a half (if that).  I would assume Mike Smith is probably realizing the same thing.

So, a gimpy Turner, and an oft injured Julio Jones wont be pushed, in my opinion.

New Orleans, on the other hand, will bring it all in hopes of a bye.  Now, to get it they have to win out and hope St Louis @ home can upset SF.  SF doesnt really destroy anyone, and New Orleans knows what is possble if you underestimate a lowly St Louis team @ home.  Brees is going for the single season passing record, New Orleans is a completely different team at home....

New Orleans 31 Atlanta 20

totally agree

Falcons secured a playoff spot when Green Bay beat Chicago

@muchomojo

You probably read my post above, but it seems you agree with me that it seems less important to Atlanta than it is to New Orleans...

New Orleans has EVERYTHING (or at least enough) to play for.

1.  #2 seed, with bye, still possible

2.  Clinch Division Title

3.  Brees single season passing record

Home field advantage is arguably more important to the Saints than any other team in the league.

The Falcons, on the other hand, could win the division title, but they have to win out and the Saints have to drop both games, Green Bay (with absolutely nothing to play for) has to beat Detroit, who has something to play for (protecting its current seeding).

The Saints are much healthier than the Falcons.  Yes, the Falcons have had 10 days rest, but groin strains don't heal in 10 days, and I would think the Falcons want Turner as close to 100% as possible for the playoffs.  Julio Jones has been banged up as well.  Tony Gonzalez has battled back issues.... their stars are hurting...

I only bring all this up cause Prime posts contantly about wagering high stakes and truth be told I usually read his posts.  Not that I follow him often, but I do read his writeups.  I make my own decisions, but if I am feeling indecisive about a game I often look at other opinions on here.  I can't, for the life of me, imagine wagering one dime, especially in Week 16 and 17 of the NFL season, a week in advance.  To me it is an cardinal rule to know and consider what each team has riding on the game , and the only way I am wagering on it is if I know the answers and that they can't be changed prior to kickoff.

That said, I have placed my wager on the Saints -6.5.

I think both teams are talented and matchup well with each other, but the Saints have more to play for (worth 3 points) and are at home (worth 3.5 points). 

Atlanta   BOL my friend.  Hope your Christmas was a wonderful one. 

I'm up way past my bed time but it's okay b/c I really need to get a good handle on this MNF game. Without slowing down the pace of this wonderful thread too much a quick down and dirty on me is I initially won a little $$ and it was good (of course) but now I'm behind (not really a little but I'm not gonna loose the farm) so initially everything I've looked at is telling me ATL, I even went as far as “purchasing” some advice and that also is telling me ATL (and the under too by the way) but reading some of these post in this thread and on the forum board tonight, especially the one that made reference to Brady, Brees, and Rodgers in SNF and MNF matchups (can lose!) and last couple of post by fitchj21 it just doesn’t make sense to bet against (fade?) Brees, at home, on a Monday night.

Is there any additional angles I should be looking at?

One caveat… that same “purchased advice” made me change my mind about taking GB ATS and I took CHI instead.

Appreciate your time!

Prime Time is the biggest joke on this site. How they haven't banned him is beyond me. He lies about the numbers he bets, he's posted multiple times he will quit posting if a pick loses....and now this...30k on the falcons...lol what a clown.

Saints are 6-0 at home and 6-0 ATS at home and you are laying 30k on a road team? Just please leave.

I say to give the man a chance to win his wager.

No one rob you from your imaginary games while growing up so why should you ruin his? 

If you do not like his capping skills, fade him for money.  Use him for that kind of support to up your bankroll....if you dare. 

Best of luck to Prime time boss with his hotlanta plays...he is on it bigger than I am..

I'm on Narleans with a cricket amount of play.  I just like to seeing brees being successful and I like that helmet scar on the side of his face during close up facial interviews. 

I get banned here for expressing my feelings YET others PROMO their websites and bash others??
seriously?? CMMMMMMMMMON COVERS!!!!

get it together????why ban a guy like me who has been here for YEARS and opens his mouth once in a great while why we have these other FRAUDS, CONS and NEWBIES lookin to start trouble??

gL...

 gl PTB --seeing a 7.5 out there in cyber space and think its time to get on board with the ATL

oh yeah PTB - dont let the haters get to you, keep doing your thing, you owe no one a daily report of your numbers or moves made-

MY OPINION TOM IS RIGHT!!!! I AGREE WITH EVERYTHING HE SAY"S!!!! SPRINKLE IN ATL PLAYS AWFUL ON THE ROAD AND THE WINNER IS NEW ORLEANS -6.5-13.5 !!! ACTUALLY GAME SHOULDNT EVEN BE CLOSE!!! 

I just saw this but PTB the statement regarding the NFL and The Harbaugh boys is just plain stupid.Carry on.

NEw Orleans is a top tier team across the board.  The Falcons are a top tier team, at HOME and simply mediocre on the road.  they have lost to Tampa Bay in Tampa and a lowly texans team without Johnson or Schaub.  The Saints are undefeated at home and there seems to be no stopping them, and that goes for tonight as well. 

As far as PTB goes, i do believe that he is betting this amount of money, unfortunately for him, he is a walking, talking, breathing contradiction.  He states how difficult it is to cap games in weeks 15-17, and then unloads his biggest play of the year on a game in week 16, fading a team that is 7-0 at home with Drew Brees about to break the Dan Marino yardage record.  PTB i am not hating at all but you always allude to how poorly people must have done in school, where is that you attended to receive your secondary degree? my only other question is what to do you do aside from capping games if anything at all?!  

If it were me i would go with the over 45. GL

  prime TIme gots big money on Hot Atlanta!!!!
