49ers @ cards

Two poor teams and you would have to be brave to bet on either of them with any confidence.

I'd probably have the prices the other way around, but either way the match screams no bet.

49ers have owned the Cards the last 3 years when they had Warner.

49ers won 3 of the last 5, Cardinals lost 5 straight. 49ers deserved favourites even on the road.

Have you seen who there 3 wins are against?

I dont think either team can be relied upon, but think the niners have much more good players and this could be the game they live up to their hype. The main difference between the teams is defence. Arizona will struggle to get larry fitz involved, but if he does then niners may lose their sixth straight away game. That said , with the current team and qb for arizona I think niners can treble cover him and patrick willis to stop run. niners by over 12 i reckon, but not one to go heavy on.

This could finish 0-0 with the ball getting MVP!

From my staggeringly good blog ...

San Francisco 49ers @ Arizona Cardinals

Well, a weekend in Vegas stag party of sport (flicking between football and kicking the Aussies around the Gabba at 3am ... really?) ends with someone finding a turd in the punch bowl. And there it is, floating among the fruit, the 49ers at the Cards. Horrible.

The complete absence of quarterbacking means that, if you must take an interest, go with the 49ers, simply because they have the edge with skill players who can match up better. Arizona is nice out wide, but Anderson has to get it there and he couldn't hit a wide open barn door from a yard out. Also, although inconsistent, SF does have a pass rush to speak of. The 49ers are tough against the run, but Wells and Hightower are broken and below par respectively, so it doesn't really matter.

Frank Gore should be the key to this game; he's put up good numbers against the Cardinals before and should do so tonight against the league's 29th ranked run defense. If Smith needs to change it up, he can do it against a passing defense that is almost as awful as the run D (Arizona have given up the most yards through the air in the NFL in their last 3) again though, he'll need to get it there - Smith does at least have the arm for it.

These teams are unpredictable and home dogs on MNF are traditionally bankroll killers, so keep stakes to an absolute minimum.

Pick: SF -2 (1pt)

Pick: Anytime TD SF Defense 4/1 (1pt)

a good test of the PROpunters vs the mug gamblers. this is such an obvious no bet, and you  wouldn't touch it with a barge pole if it were one of the several 6pm's or 9pm's. but the mugs will still have a bet just because it's on

So you're on? [smiley:crazy]

of course!

Nice one.

I've smashed in

GVL u call it a mug bet yet you are the acca king [;)]

Cards win, gl

Iv backed Frank Gore to score anytime and first, got a little 1.6 and 1.7 on here, seems short to me but I looked at oddschecker and 1/3 in places!! Dont normally do this type of bet but just think he has a good record v cards and there run defence not the best so if in red zone would hope they'd run it. Whats others views on these types of bets?

agree sherbert

GVL is right, this is a no bet game.  However I've got tomorrow off work and I'm gonna take a small interest.  Only spin I can put on this game is that I think my cash is safer with the Coaching staff of the Cards rather than what I've seen of San Fran this season.

Arizona +1.5

GVL would LOVE to be a propunter wouldnt he :)

to be honest and as a cleveland browns fan

i would back against a downbeat and playing badly derek anderson ALL DAY.

san francisco for me here. about 20-14

Be careful, Howie. SF have God on their side(line) [;)]

Just because one person cannot spot value in a market, doesn't mean another can't.

i agree completely nugget..

Sharp minds?

I think T Ginn is due a punt/kick off return
will be backing him for 1st/anytime TD

The 49ers are a great bet on my book. In all the stats (Offense & Defense)they are well clear on my book.  I've gone in had a good bet on the 49ers at average 1.86 in the match odds

unbelievable that andre johnson hasn't been suspended [:o]

until you remember the texans are on nfl network this week [smiley:crazy]

By the numbers, it's a no-brainer, but when a team reeks, they can't be trusted. Throw MNF into the mix and it's a bowl of popcorn and a coke and try to finish the crossword with a couple of quid on.

Anyhoo, good luck, chaps

andre jonhson should should have been suspended are u serious, its tht thug finnegan who should be suspended, A.J is a saint

the nugget - be happy to debate the existence, or otherwise, of this thing called value, but after the game

value is in the eye of the beholder. simple as that..

one mans abs certainty and value even money shot is anothers mug price.

24 yards first running play of the game

8 men in the box too

quiet thread, can understand many guys not staying up for this one.

this is shokking i can't bear to watch it. gl guys

wide right, by the sounds of it 49ers should play 4 down football once they get into the oppositions half.

ill be honest.. if id known about that kicker pre game and seen those kicks- why cant the fking shows show us this before it starts- i wouldnt have touched the 49ers

seen better kicking on a sunday morning....

any feeds ?

what a first play

what a catch and throw too

Shirley the mug can nail an extra point?

6/7-0

no wonder these 2 are 3-7

lol i agree in general but whathave the 49ers done wrong here :)

WTF, I see the 49ers miss a field goal attempt and suddenly two minutes later they are 7-0 up?

What did I miss?

fumble first play... Crabtree TD first play

FFS. 7-3

horrendous from the cards here

one of Arizona's wins was against New Orleans

maybe they've lost some of their less bad players

21-3 to the 49ers

some of us knew

how on gods earth did the cards beat New orleans????

49ers have owned the Cards the last 3 years when they had Warner.

They also had Boldin, Dansby, Rolle. For some reason the 49ers have just owned the crads in recent years

Saints were pretty shocking for a few weeks earlier on. Brees was spraying interceptions everywhere and they couldn't run the ball for toffee. Got the issues resolved on their bye week.

the cards must be the worst team in the NFL looking at this

Panthers have a few very good players, but they are definitely the worst team atm.

Unlucky....you can just sense the turnover coming now

even without gore they are touching these up here and a little bit easily

yep amazing to throw the ball 15 points up, HT approaching.

Cards have ball start of second . That correct??

why didnt they just run it there? ah well they will have to stop them here or keep it to 3 points if possible

nice stop, now just get to half time. Only way the 49ers can lose from here is by turning the ball over.

bad call from wisenhunt there for me.

15 down with just a minute left? should have gone for it.

jeez, lonely here

------------------------------------------------------

Just to complete the record, and put this , and myself to bed.

I've never seen that much of Anderson - - - Absolutely dreadful.

20 euro profit, well below minimum wage

pathetic against the run once again the crads

as a cleveland fan as i said before ive seen much to much of the clown. awful awful qb as proved by his rating.

That was a pleasing result.  I could not believe the 49ers were over 1.85 on here.  As stated earlier they were well clear in all stats.  As someone stated earlier, "A winner is a winner and doesn't matter what the standard is"

well done the winners, but i would dispute that statement. the lower the standard the greater variability hence the greater the risk i'd say. a bit like playing the ftse100 or the usm.

True dat.

Just watched the game and it was bleedin' awful - I could barely watch. In the end, I was fast-forwarding to every time the Cardinals had the ball because it was so funny watching Anderson. The last 3 and out, when he bounced the pass 5 yards short of his receiver had me laughing out loud.

Guys like Ken Whisenhunt and Larry Fitz and the fans deserve better than that, but hey, I'm a Redskins fan!

good value losers
