Cincinnati are biggest favourite of the weekend at 1.4.
Seems good value and probably only as high as that because of doubts about Andy Dalton, poor play-off record and the long-standing unpredictability of the Chargers.
Thing is, Dalton is better than his critics imply, I could be wrong but I think Bengals recent play-off matches were on the road (they are at least an experienced play-off team).
Many watching here to assess if the Bengals would be good enough to beat the Patriots in Foxboro' - I think they can, been long of the view that the Patriots just cannot keep handling all the injuries.
Expect the market to be in love with Bengals - so depending on how it goes, may go large-ish (for me) earlier than normal - then the usual drill - siphon excesss if Chargers go sub 1.17 or so ridiculously early - and the old prevent defense converts that into increased returns
.
two great matches so far, lets hope for another good one.
As always, good luck all.

Small stake on the Chargers for me, hope to trade out. Last night taught me anything can happen! Good Luck All.

That said I'm on the Bengals or 49ers to win the Super Bowl outright.

Tough game to call imo, on one hand you have the Bengals who haven't lost at home yet playing a team they already beat on the road. But the Bengals beat the Bronco's away after losing at home too them, Then there is Andy Dalton a good qb imo, but so far in 2 play off games he has thrown 4 INT's with no TD's. Two games isn't enough to judge him but my worry would be if he messes up early would he have the resiliency to come back. He will have a chance against the 3rd worst pass defense. I wont be betting on this one, I like the Bengals too win but I hate the odds.

took pp 6/4 on cincinnati and sf 49 ers tonight?
|

By:
the weather will play a big part tonight
rain forecast in cincinatti,which surely won`t help the chargers -18 in green bay at kick off time,packers used to freezing weather though not sure that it will effect the 49`ers that much |
|
By:
how will it help the Packers more than the Niners? both teams have a very good run game, difference is the Niners are very good against the run whereas the Packers are awful against the run. Kaepernick himself has shredded the Packers time and time again with his legs. The only chance the Packers have is through the air and not convinced in these conditions. Niners game is actually suited to games like this

Sorry, read your post wrong. I realise now that u said you don't tink it think effect the Niners that much. Apologies

Normally, opposing the herd is the way to go, and the public is all over the Bengals like a fat lad at a buffet, but in this game I can't see past the home team; they just have too much on either side of the ball.
Cincinnati are 8-0 at home and Andy Dalton's numbers are far better in Paul Brown Stadium which is more important than it might seem, because Dalton is prone to turning the ball over. The Law Firm and Bernard are a nice one/two punch on the ground and given the weather forecast, the ability to control the run game may be critical. The Bolts' secondary is poor, despite picking up down the stretch, and A J Green matches up nicely on Shareece Wright and Richard Marshall at the corners; there's also a decent support cast downfield. Ryan Mathews should be held in check by a decent Bengals' defensive front, forcing Philip Rivers to the air and while San Diego does have talent over the top with Antonio Gates and Keenan Allen and Danny Woodhead catching out of the backfield, Cincinnati ranks 5th in average yards given up per game against the pass and the weather may be limiting. I have the Bengals a TD better. I also like the Under. Pick: Cincinnati -6.5 @ 1.93 Pick: Under 47.5 @ 1.91 Pick: 1st TD A J Green @ 8 Pick: Anytime TD BenJarvus Green-Ellis @ 2.3 |

Home advantage will probably win out but if the game stays close I would prefer to place any money on rivers over the fair weather Dalton, he looks great when his team is 30pts ahead and he starts throwing it around like an all-star but would you trust him to win a tight match?? not for me, don't see how 1.4 is any kind of value in this crazy sport. They are very good at home though and hard to ignore.

Brees is going to have a nightmare in seattle for me, pumped up crowd,seattle pass rush flying around and they can handle the big TEs as good as any team in the NFL, going to be a long night for cool brees.
|

By:
mmm, that's why I don't go near this.
Seattle could win comfortably, and then give up late touchdown with time expiring, win by 4 or something. |

By:
I think the home game blip v the cardinals was a good thing, I don't think teams will go there thinking they can now be beat as most teams will go there thinking they can win. Best get the defeat out of the way in the regular season. I hope to see a seattle/niners v denver superbowl, would like to see how manning would cope against these two top defences, class on its own this nfc west for defence and that includes the other two teams.

If you're putting your money down and only watching then it's the Bengals. If, you prefer to back and lay during the match, I don't think you can go far wrong with a lay of the Bengals to start at 1.4.
|

By:
Seattle's opening price for next week is utterly stupid. Yes, they won easily last time, but yesterday showed anything can happen and there are too many questions over the O-line for Sea and NO's explosiveness for them to be 1.2s.
As for tonight, this all depends on Cin's D. SD's D is abject so unless Dalton turns into Santa, Cin will score easily. That said, 1.75 for HT/FT when they are 1.58 to win the 1st half is ridiculous. As is 9.6 for SD / Cin the other way though. |

One QB looks cool and collected and the other looks as he was expected to look

By:
Rivers didn't look so cool or collected there. Terrible pass.
