The turnovers committed by the Bengals add points to oppositions defensive scoring stats.  The first quarter totals are at 7.5 points. The time set for the prop bet on first score of the game is 7:00 minutes instead of usual 6:00 The points total dropped from 41.5 to 40.5 while the public money is divided in half. The first half totals stand at 20.5 - usual invitation to bet over. No. Thanks

Under 7.5 First Quarter

Under 20.5 First Half

Stay tuned for second half picks if I will do decide I want to follow that path depending on the lines published. I see the game following way - first half very disciplined play on behalf of the Bengals and second half nothing like the first. I will also know if Big Ben wants to cover or not. May be.

Thanks everyone for the comments and your time spent in my thread. I will address those comments personally later. I find it amazing that at the end of the day most of you were able to let the steam out and we still won and are all happy. Let's all cherish this moment and seize the opportunity to be kind rather not missing an opportunity to be an a$$hole. Been there and done that both ways much more times than I care to remember. So I'm not upset at anyone and neither any of you should be. Everyday we get better in our own eyes and deserve respect first of all from ourselves to our own selves - that day we gain. May we all have more days like that than not. an_cheers

When do you usually post your picks Sir? Can you please post them like 24 before the kick offs as I'm in HK and the time difference is killing me. Please

Don't overthink it

@ThePassanger69

 Usually he post his picks 1 minute before kick off. Why? I have no idea.

That's not true. an_shake

He doesn't post his picks minute before the game. And he doesn't owe anything to me or you or anyone else for that matter. Just saying that Hong Kong is in a totally different time zone and hopefully his picks will come on time for me to place my bets.

I have nothing but gratitude for 14all41an_praise

unfortunately i dont think he has never posted a play 24 hours prior to kickoff and probably never will..there are factors to be watched like injury/weather reports and line movement which might be taken into account so it does not go in your favour.why dont you just set your alarm for 15 minutes prior to kickoff time,check the thread and place your bet?seems a small price to pay to make some money.

Merry Xmas to all!

I will relate to each and every comment posted and was left without my attention later on. I read each and everyone of them and am grateful for the time and effort put in order to keep the conversation alive. 

Now, to the game we have at our hands this festive late afternoon. 

The Saints and the Vikings have interesting history between them. Especially in the last 4 games since September 11th 2017 thru January 5th 2020. I mean the most recent and consecutive history. The Vikings beat the Saints in two playoff games winning once in OT (the most recent in January this (2020) year) and another one too on the last play of the game. The Saints won both regular season games and have done it by double digit margins. 

Will the history repeat itself? Is history relevant at all in this particular instance?

Let's break this one down to the bits.

The line is the saints -6.5 as we speak and it has dropped from the saints -7 in last hour or so. The public is on the Saints. The public support shows on both merits: ML and ATS and translates to each 7 dollars out of 10 being on the Saints. 

The line too is very generous towards the Saints as team totals prop shows no less than 9 points margin in the favor of the host team. While the Vikings TT stands at 20.5, the Saints TT is at 29.5. That is leaving the middling folks the whole 2.5 points to play with. 

Form wise the Saints should be better than the last game after Brees playing second game after coming back from the injury. 

ATS wise - the Saints refused to cover the line twice in a row while the Vikings failed to that 5 times in a row.

Do we have any indication the Vikings will fight for the slimmest of the chances they have to make the playoffs? No.

Do we have an indication the Saints are motivated enough to really believe the Packers will drop the last two games so the Saints will get their playoff  goal? Not sure at all.

What about the totals? Well, the totals line has been dropping whole day and is now at 50.5. And all that while the public is supporting the over massively.

So what? Will we see a defensive battle on a Xmas afternoon game? Yes. That is what I believe. At least for the first half. 

Under 25.5 First Half

Vikings +6.5

Stay tunes for the half time to see if there will be any value in the second half picks.

Please remember  - those are a 0-0 and not 19-4-1 picks. The past doesn't count anywhere besides our pockets where we are set OK. So., the record doesn't guarantee wins so play it modestly and once you places the wager - be happy and make everyone around you happy no matter what will be the outcome!

@melossinglet

 Merry Xmas peace_5. You're right. I do like to wait till the last hour or so to see what is the situation with money and of there are some indications that might help in making a decision. But, that is not a thumb rule and there are games (especially this upcoming weekend) that I already have an idea what I am going topick and I will post them few hours at the least before the game

@ThePassanger69

Merry Xmas peace_5. As I wrote to melossinglet - there will be instances I will be able to post earlier than usual. But, that is not a promise and I suggest you make all the necessary arrangements to be on the same page as the rest of us on east coast USA

Not gonna argue with that line. I would take under 24.5 but I got 25.5. Golden Nugget has it even at 26 while only Circa has it at 24.5. But, I will have to say yes. William Hill has it at 25.5.
