NYG/SF Play

7-4 Playoffs  +11.15 units

I am somewhat of a trend player and with that being said there is a key trend I cannot ignore. Teams to beat the defending SB champs in the playoffs have NEVER won their next playoff game. Well my Giants just beat GB and they have looked great over the last 3 games. The trend tells me they will lose to SF next Sunday. I do like SF without that trend anyways and here is why.

The Giants have been on an emotional roller coaster over the past month and they just beat the best team in the regular season on the road. talk about an emotional high but now they have to travel to SF where they lost earlier in the year in a great game 27-20. I look at these Giants and I see last years Jets. Jets got hot late and in the 2nd round upset the best regular season team the Patriots. Then the next week they get their teeth kicked in by Pittsburgh. SF is the toughest team physically in the league and they create turnovers. They will get after Eli all game long and create turnovers. Alex will manage the game and SF special teams and defense will do their part. The best defense in the league gets it done.

link?

I know this for a fact    I will try finding a link

Kinda agreeing with ya here igetmoney leaning SF

iget,
In another thread its 1-11 ats

Those weren't my plays. That was a different thread. Plays were from a guy in Vegas.

And wasn't 1-11

What about this: it's hard to beat the same team twice in the same season.
Pats beat giants 38-35 then lose is Super Bowl. Packers beat Giants , then lose tonight. SF already beat the Giants this year, it won't happen again. Giants in the Super Bowl

Giants Defense holding Rodgers to 20 points us better than SF giving up 32 to Brees. Giants D is real. Eli is for real

No i meant that the team that beat the defneding superbowl champ is 1-11 ats the next game

Leaning on the Giants ML right now

Alex Smith vs Eli, enough said.  Giants have a healthy d-line and they are just steamrolling opponents.  It took 5 turnovers for the 49ers to win at home

Anyways gl everyone

Good luck, bud!

Nice write-up.  I completely agree.  Harbaugh brothers will face-off in the Superbowl (or at a minimum, they will both win ATS).

 

Your trend is 100% false.

 

If you would have researched you would have figured this out....but why bother if you know its true?

I give SF all the respect in the world. Their D is awesome. Under at 43.5 looks good right about now.      

If you look at every game in the playoffs right now and see who won the turnover battle. The team that has had the fewest turnovers has won almost every game I think. Look at the regular season sf was tops in turnover margin.

"However, teams that have defeated the defending Super Bowl Champions are just 1-10 ATS and winless sporting an 0-11 record in the next playoff round."

Most recent example was Seahawks beating the Saints then getting dismantled next round by the Bears

This is so wrong... I can think of so many teams that did on top of my head. 49ers in the 80s, Cowboys in the 90s both won back to back Super Bowl. GreenBay in the 90s went to two super bowls in a row winning the first one, so for them to get back they must have won their NEXT playoff game the second time around. Broncos won back to back Super Bowl in the 90s. Patriots won back to back super bowl also.

The 2001 Tennessee Titans beat the Jacksonville Jaguars 3 times.  That was the only team Jacksonville lost to all year.

Your misreading what he said. He said the team to defeat the defending superbowl champs in the playoffs have never won the next round
