this is not a huge upset or even a big upset.

All the Sharps are betting Carolina because every one is all over Seattle.

Sharps are also the ones that drove the Seahawks futures bet from 12-1 all the way down to 7-1. Adjusted the odds by almost 1/2 before August? That most certainly wasnt homer bets.

Its pretty humorous that Carolina gets fewer points (3.5) against Seattle than Green Bay (4.5) gets against SF.

Don't you think the whole home/road thing has something to do with that genius? If the game were in Seattle it would probably be over a TD.

Home teams on opening day get an extra point or point and a half more than the normal 2.5 -3 points. So these lines are basically saying that on a neutral field Seattle would be over a TD favorite, while SF would be about a .5 point favorite over GB.

You mean because Seattle has such a terrible road record..... especially 10am starts? :whistle:

Man, even if Seattle wins.... its enjoyable thinking about all those arrogant seahawk fans who acted like this game was a slam dunk squirming in their seats right now.

Wilson is getting pounded. The Carolina defense looks better than Seattles.

I just don't get the Seattle hype. It is not just from the Seattle fans.

Today basically everyone on ESPN had Seattle in the superbowl

bksballer89 is going to be sporting some serious swagger if this plays out. Carolina's D is scary.

I actually hate the Panthers but I just think Seattle is overrated.

What would be ironic is if your prediction plays out and yet it's not the biggest upset of the week!!!

Yeah very ironic.

Right now Bills over Pats is the biggest one. This may be the 3rd biggest upset if Raiders upset the colts

All three happen and the "experts" are all exposed. Their opinion is not worth any more than ours.

Huh? Anyone with half a brain in Seattle knew this would be a low scoring game. I think my official prediction on a different forum was 17-10 Seattle.

Carolina's D was surprisingly top 10 last year and Star was a monster in all of preseason and camp workouts. Then they picked up Short who I REALLY wanted Seattle to draft and Luke Skywalker is on that team who is just a beast.

Couple that with 1) road game, 2) East coast start, and anyone expecting some 42-3 blowout is a moron.

12-7 is not a surprise to me at all. Now I'm going to sit back and watch San Fran hopefully lose. That will be bringing down the true folks to Earth.

LOL, I would be concerned about what I saw if I was you. Good job pulling it out though.
