26 ESPN "experts" pick the Broncos. 12 pick the Seahawks.

A Seahawks fan posted it, so he must be mad? Why can't he just be delivering the results?

Well let's see he put the word "experts" in quotations. Usually fans do this when they disagree with the "Experts" and want to point out how stupid they are. Then he points to one of the "experts" for picking the Broncos to win by 14 as a major insult.

He points towards many of them picking the Broncos to win by a touchdown or more but how none of them point towards Seattle winning by anymore than 6 points.

I would call out a Bronco fan if they did the same stupid thing. Just like earlier in this post a Bronco fan pointed towards how NFL Network picked Seattle quite a bit more than Denver. I don't see any Bronco fan making a post about that on here.

op => who cares what the so-called 'experts' think? they're guessing just like anyone else and quite honestly very few of them can usually pick as accurately as I do in my pick 'em league. I have very little confidence in 'expert' picks. most of them are just throwing darts.

True. We just dont get matchups like this in the Super Bowl very often. Top offense, top defense. Arguably the Greatest QB of all time going up against a secondary that has the best S in the league and arguably the best CB in the league.

Would have been easier to have just said, "Yes, I think he is mad for posting it" than typing a paragraph for your English teacher to grade. Did you make it to the required 150 words?

Oh sorry for making you have to read a little. Take a couple of aspirin then come back and finish it. I believe in you! You can read more than two sentences just have to give a little effort.

I read it all, it is just annoying when something that could have been said in one sentence takes 3 paragraphs. :noidea:

You called me out for calling him out so I guess just a few word answer didn't feel like it was enough to justify why I posted what I posted. I just don't understand why Seahawk fans (yes I know I am speaking in a generality and not all feel this way) seem to get all frazzled every time somebody picks against them. I fully expect people to pick against the Broncos and think they can be justified in doing so.

-8 of those picking the Broncos picked them to do so by 7 points or more.
-Nobody picked the Seahawks to win by more than 6 points.
-5 picked the Broncos to win by 10 or more points.
-Mark Schlereth went full bias and picked the Broncos to blow the Seahawks out 31-17
them bastids !!

?? That makes no sense. The sharp money is on Seattle because the general public money is on Denver. Line opened with Seattle -.5 and has moved 3 to 3.5 points towards Denver because over 70% of the general public money has been bet on Denver. The sharps know the general public usually loses ( hence the big buildings n Vegas ) so they would tend to bet Seattle in this game and certainly would lay more points with Denver. Im more inclined to bet the over than the spread in any form since I think Seattle O is undervalued ( 34.8 ppg against bottom half defenses ) and I think Seattles D is overvalued since they havent played anyone near Denvers level this year ( not like that is hard since its the best offense of all time statistically ). Im thinking there will be at least 52+ points scored in this game and I have it at 64. With an over under of 48 I think thats easy money especially since the weather is supposed to cooperate

The public is usually on the wrong side. The term "the house always wins" did not come from nowhere.

I've never heard that term, are you sure it exists in that context ?

At least it was worth reading. I haven't seen you accomplish that yet. :bounce:

:bullshit: If it wasn't worth it, you would not respond, yet here you are coming back for more.

You're right. I should have clarified a little. Your posts are high in entertainment value. As far as intelligence, let's just say they leave something to be desired.
