If New Orleans is sooooo great, how come they are only -9 in DC??

Let's compare these two teams.

QB  edge-NO

Running game  edge-NO

Def  edge - NO

Points per game  edge-NO

I'm really trying to find one category the Redskins have an edge. I got it, home field?   +3  lol.

Prediction:  NO 41  WAS 10

This is the exact reason I think the Skins keep it close and cover. Amateur who loves the public play, and loves laying the wood on the road favourite.  The books are gonna eat up these fish on Sunday afternoon...

Here's another one...gotta love it. These guys are simply part of the publics perception, that "there is no way NO can win by less then 10"...

What the general public doesn't know, is what makes them the general public

agree. kcobra, saintsfan504, they all buy in to the hype. bookies will cash in as people believe saints for real, lines get higher by games, and suddenly baloon pop ! perception comes down as public reasses how overated saints are. Its like the stock market. I would rate saints as "overbought" due for correction.

DC Covers

Saints wont lose this game but they probably wont cover either.  Skins and the points for me ...... 

title of thread sux

NO are great cause they are 11-0 this season........who cares if they cover or not, all they need is to win....dont get blind sided by covering margins.. that doesnt get you superbowl rings....the tick in the W box does.

thats why they're great

Ban him now i am insisting on this, did you not understand the words COVERS.COM

ouch very harsh guys.

sorry to push a few buttons.  MY bad 

anyway NO are too creative not to cover against WSH who although play good D have so such luck on Offence...i would have gone with a line of DD myself but so dont be suprised if it gets there before kick off.

i believe there a better lines to cover on the other game so if your not confident of NO covering dont bet this game. cause it NO or a no bet for me.

maybe New Orleans will call a time out when they dont have any left and cost themselves a national championship...i mean super bowl

I know....I know that's not the way to pick a side, but if the idea is for a line maker to get 50% of the action on each side, there is no reason for this line to come out at 9.  Action will probably be 90% on Saints.  Vegas is begging for that making the line under DD.  Line movement will tell a lot in my opinion, but I'll be waiting for the last possible minute to take Washington.

what you said

I see this as Wash plus 13 or so.

Peculiar.

Gotta think the Aints have a little let down after that big win. Do not believe they can bring that effort again. Going to go with the Skins and hate myself if they get blown out. Their D is good but that offense is beyond offensive.....

Small upgrade if Portis is still out, he slower than LT at this point in his career.

Crash

All you 'expert' cappers who pick wsh will need to head back to a meeting after sunday and take out another mortgage because unless you haven't been watching the saints this year, there is no other team as focused, resilient, adjusting or diversified.  they will CRUSH the skins.  short week or not, big previous win or not.   by the way, it's not 1 big win, it's 11 and until somebody proves otherwise, saints will keep winning me $$.  until the nets win one, i will continue to cash in on their losses.
