Super Bowl 51 odds

Early odds have the Patriots -3 and the o/u at 57.

I don't have much of a rooting interest. I am not a Vikings or Packers fan. I live in Minnesota, however, so I naturally know more Packer fans than I know fans of any other team outside of Minnesota. I'm grateful not to have to put up with the usual pompom waving associated with Green Bay now that they've been destroyed by Atlanta.

While I don't have strong convictions, I do think Tom Brady's "deflategate" was a bit ridiculous. I'm rooting for New England, and for Brady to win the MVP award, so I can watch Roger Goodell hand the trophy to Brady. Oh the irony!

 

OVER.

Easy $

 

That over is high already, good lord. The way both teams have been playing though, I hope for an exciting game!!

Personal predictions?
Going with 33 34 Atlanta takes it.

 

Cheatin' Pats lose, I win...I'm making a quick trip to the Westgate to lock it down...leaving in 11 hours..27-9 ATL

 

If Atlanta holds New England to 9 they would be ONE of the greatest defenses to play in the year end classic ever. And you could clean up on some prop bets as well. Good luck.

 

They can't make the "over" high enough.

 

For many, Football season ended yesterday. Sad.

 

Does the fact the Atlanta coach was defensive coordinator at Seattle prior to his current position cause one to think the Falcons could temper the Brady offense a bit?
Or is the Brady bunch simply on a mission of destiny (in their minds) to meet Goodell on the podium?

 

Agreed, very quiet at work today from the Packer contingent, a nice start to the week indeed

That said, can't believe they hit the over yesterday @ 61 in the NFCC so I'd have to take the OVER for the SB

 

The 60 point over hit for the packer falcon game last week.. i wouldn't be surprised to see it hit again!

 

The "Deflategate" stuff was dumb (I can't stand Goodell) but I also can't stand New England. Go Falcons.

 

Kinda the way the Packer fans felt watching the Viking slide from 5-0 to 0-No!

 

I guess, I'm conditioned to losing so I'm used to it. But as a result I'm also not pompous and egotistical about my fandom. Can't say the same for alot of the Packer fans in my workplace, and today the silence is good.

 

A really ugly game. Only bright spot for me was the OVER at 60.5. But had the NFC and Superbowl bets before the season started. Also lost the moneyline and the +5.5. I just can't stomach the Pats, but I took the over and them at -3.

 

I think the over is going to be an easy one....I'm a huge ATL fan, was great being at the game last night! Won some $....I think the Falcons win it...38-27 or 38-34

 

I'm guessing that is only because you can't be. Don't try and tell me that when the Vikings win the Division, you don't have something to say. It's natural.

 

I am not a fan of either team, so I don't have a dog in this fight. But, on paper it would appear that New England has the edge. Having been to the super bowl so many times might be in their favor, also.
I just hope it is a good, close game and not a boring blow out.

 

I am a Patriots fan so definitely invested. From the heart standpoint you know who I'm going with. From the head.....taking the points and the Falcons.

Definitely going with the over. Only thing that would defeat that is if the Belichick mastery clamps down hard on Julio Jones and Matt Ryan can't get him the ball.

Worst thing about yesterday wasn't the ultimate result, but that both games were essentially over before the 3rd quarter ended.

 

Initially I like the Falcons and the over. I've sucked balls this year so it will probably be the Pats in a low scoring game.

 

When you have money on NE and Atl. you are very happy the game is over by the 3rd quarter.
