Anyone have any reservations about the Bronco's tonight?

Thinking about putting 600 to win 110 on them straight up. Seems like easy money?

I'd do that if I had the cash to do so. No way they lose at home with the #1 seed in the line. San Diego's secondary is prettttttty poor.

The Chargers are a pretty good team and this is a must win game for them to stay in the playoffs race. I think the Broncos win but I wouldn't feel comfortable making that kind of bet. $110 doesn't seem worth the risk.

Just seems like an easy 110 to make. At home, against a division opponent who is under .500 on the road.

DEN/SD is a risky one I think. I don't know, but if had to place a bet on that game I would take the Over.

I agree with this. Althought I'd drop the money on Denver SU as well.

I don't know. I know it's happened two times this year though. Jags/Texans, Rams/Colts,. And I'm sure there have been a few more.

I found a link but it is only for double digit home underdogs and they are 12-55 SU since 2000.

Its gotta be around (or higher than) 90%. I bet its even more after week 4 (or 25% of games played).

Yeah but they aren't going to lose and you'll still be incredibly drunk.

I did, but went back to the drawing board in a moment of rage right after the ND game and put money down on GS ML and Arizona -15.

It's never a good idea to lose and bet, but I was boiling. Lol.

If Peyton Manning continues to play like Jake Plummer, I'll be contributing to that thread very soon.

Definitely brutal. I didn't have as much at stake in the game as others, but I did slap some money down on Denver -3 as part of what I believed to be an airtight teaser with Portland +2.

I still can't get that deflected Peyton Manning pass in the first half out of my head. That's when I knew it was over. It looked like he got his shot blocked by Dikembe Mutumbo. Add on all the ridiculous penalties and what an embarrassing game for the Broncos. Not the makeup of a Super Bowl champion. What a joke.

Anybody like anything for today?

Want to do some college basketball but haven't seen any lines yet. Will have to wait and see what Bovada has tomorrow. Might take Arizona (Michigan) and Kansas (New Mexico) if favorable.

Middle Tennessee +8 at Mississippi
Loyola Marymount +10 at Valparaiso
Marshall +11.5 vs West Virginia

TONS of great games today.
