I have to say, what Todd Monken and Lamar did in the 2H vs the Texans blitz was quite impressive. Did the kid take a step forward?

Steve Spagnuolo likes to blitz. Gonna be a good matchup.

A particularly interesting aspect of the matchup will be Travis Kelce vs Patrick Queen and Roquon Smith. Kelce just faced a rag tag LB unit in the Bills. And those privy to this mismatch took Kelce overs and KC ats/ML. Good work by the crew here.

But those 2 LB's of the Ravens are as good as it gets in covering the middle of the field. Roquon specifically in coverage. I've watched that guy run with anyone his whole career.

I feel like it'll be really hard to not take Mahomes getting points. It's also hard not to take the Ravens, they are pretty damn good in every department.

Kinda feeling like this game is the real SB. The 49ers imo have more flaws than people think. They "should" get passed the Lions. And when they do, they'll be short favs vs either KC or Baltimore.

Remember last year when Philly was the short fav vs Mahomes? A lot of people thought that Philly was the hells bells of the nfl. I think the best 2 teams in the nfl probably reside in the afc. KC isn't perfect, but Mahomes is the goat.

This should be a monster of a game

@undermysac

So for strictly gambling purposes, what would the ideal wager be of $1000 bankroll to win the Super Bowl betting on Baltimore +200 and KC +350 to get the most bang for your buck? Like a -1 run line in MLB.

600/400?

Any accountants on Covers or just mattress and carpet salesmen?

Keep at it.

@Cranky_Hank

Risk the same amount on both bets.

Then look for a small hedge if the line moves in your favor on the SB.

If you do the math at that point, you can put yourself in a break even at worst position.

I don't want to interrupt this back and forth going on now, but shouldn't it be done in the Conference Round newsletter?

I hold a 200$ ticket on Baltimore to win the AFC championship @5-1 bought Nov 9th. Also a Jax ticket for 100$ for same. thumbs_down . Don't think a hedge is necessary but you never know. Why the long game always intrigues me! Some of my mates tell me I tie up money too much but hey I have owned stocks for like forever so I think it's that mentality that has shaped my thinking. Am I wrong? Hell my baseball futures take like 5 months.

Agree. Who's on deck?

Then it's the SB thread, followed by a long off-season....

I think this answers my question why SF is favored vs a superior Ravens team

Because he has both favs, he can hedge with ML bets on the 2 dogs and guarantee a decent payday regardless of outcomes

Let's use your logic, albeit mind numbingly stupid ...

Dallas beat the Rams by 12 points in LA. The Ravens got very lucky to beat the Rams by 6 points while playing at home. Therefore (using your sophomoric approach to handicapping) the Cowboys are better than the Ravens.

The Ravens also lost to the Steelers TWICE!!! Thus, the Steelers are better than the Ravens.

Nothing like some Corpus Christi B-ball on a Monday night to get the blood pumping. They'd better pick up the pace.
