This is my thought of the day.

My new favorite covers phrase for justifying a pick with little or no work or effort - but seemingly lending credibility to it is.....

"Don't overthink it"

I love that.

It should just be, "don't think"

Which also translate into "Do underthink it."

 

Sounds reasonable for the average Covers user....

Exactly - and always used when considering a big favorite.  You never hear "don't overthink it....  Take the 10 points with the Raiders..."

To answer above - tonight would be Denver or nobody for me.  But most likely nobody.

No doubt the 'don't overthink it' crowd are bookmakers.

I'm not so sure Peyton isn't playing the Qb the best in NFL history.I'd put Favre at 1995-97,Montana 1988-90,Rodgers 2010-11with Marino 1984-85 up there,but Peyton sure has to be the top of my list.Maybe Brady in 2007...I'd love to see a Broncos/ Cowboys Super Bowl.Bet ur a** Peyton will be the head coach of University of Tennessee.

I agree, but I see Peyton going to the booth.

It's like it's the new 'don't bet that trap, suckers'

Perhaps now there's no longer trap lines, just lines that used to look like traps but really aren't so just bet it dummy!

Today in the kitchen:

Mrs Vanzack: "Should I make pie or cookies for Sunday?"

Mr Vanzack:  "Don't overthink it!"

 

I think for once these covers morons are really on to something!  It seems to have a calming effect.  More study is needed, but I feel like this might be my next go to line to get me out of marital discussions I don't want to be in.

I can just see it.  Young guy with his girlfriend:

GF:  "I want to discuss where our relationship is going and where we stand."

BF:  "Don't overthink it."
