Hello all, recently I have been crushing NFL specifically and I will only be sharing my picks with you on one condition:
I receive feedback.
I'm not looking for praise, I'm simply looking for acknowledgement that I exist. If I don't receive that I may as well keep my picks to myself because nobody is seeing them. I'd even appreciate if you post disagreeing with me because it at least sparks a conversation.
Without further adieu here is the picks.
--
SF +6.5
OVER 42
--
Analysis:
Colin Kaepernick has shown great progression throughout the season. For all intensive purposes his team should be much better than they are. The game against the Giants is one that they let slip away. The strength of SEA's defense right now is their LB corps. Their LB corps swarms to the ball, this means that Kaepernick likely won't be rushing the ball too much against SEA. This is alright since he has been smart with the football and thrown well down field.
SEA has had very poor defensive production recently. Russell Wilson has kept this team afloat recently and is the sole reason they are even competitive in most of their games. Russell Wilson has struggled greatly against defenses with speedy LB's (DET & GB). SF's front 7 are too slow to contain Wilson and he will be able to run the offense the way he likes. He will pass when the opportunity is there and rush when it isn't.
It is worth noting that the public has been slaughtered on every prime time game this season. I won't dive too far deep into this season however here are some recent memories.
NYG @ PHI - Public lost on NYG & OVER.
NE @ IND - Public lost on NE (backdoor Colts cover).
ATL @ NO - Public lost on ATL.
PITT @ SD - Public lost on SD.
SF @ NYG - Public lost on NYG.
IND @ HOU - Public took a historically bad beat on HOU hosting a IND team without Luck and a bacterially infected Hasselbeck.
Look for the public to like SEA in this spot. The public has short term memory loss when it comes to teams that they like. The fact that this line sits at a 6.5 could not be more obvious of a bait towards the SEA side. The books are begging you to take SEA and are even giving you the hook. Kaepernick will be motivated at home after hearing Clay Matthews comments in Week 4, "You ain't Russell Wilson bro." SF already plays SEA like it's their super bowl, the additional motivation is great.
Take the motivated Kaepernick led 49ers +6.5 and over 42 in this game that is sure to see some scoring.
Good luck all who are with me.

good luck mate but why do you think that books are begging the public to take SEA? that can be said the other way around as well, that a home team that gets +6.5 against a tired SEA is too good to be true?
im still deciding...

I just the Covers consensus and there isn't one worth mentioning. It is SEA 51-49. The over is at 59%, so if the game is "fixed," it will go under to screw the public.

Typically If the books want you to take a team they will put the hook on the side that you'd want.
For example, on MNF when NYG visited PHI. Even when the line dropped quickly in PHI's favor they left the hook attached (the lowest it went was PHI -3.5). PHI was the winning team and the 0.5 attached to the 3 made it discouraging. It is however, encouraging that the hook is on the SEA side this time. SEA -6.5 benefits SEA betters as a win by a TD covers. On the SF side of things however, the hook takes away from an SF bet because a TD victory for SEA spoils your bet.
The books are encouraging SEA picks which should be easy enough as it is. SEA hosted DET in Week 4 in a game they barely won yet the public action was all over SEA -10. Taking SEA -10 in that game was an awful decision.
This line is an obvious bait. I'm sorry if my above explanation is unclear as it's kind of a hard concept for me to put into words.

I have to agreed with serg7. Too good to be true. If sea line is -3 i will take san francisco w/out a doubt. I think this game seattle will show up to fix their problem in the 4q n cover the game. Kaepernick still inconsistent. He'll probably show up till halftime n seattle defense will take over 2h. Im taking sea -6.5 n sanfran 1h. Good luck mates

Covers consensus does not adequately reflect the public betting. The most accurate free betting tool that indicates public betting numbers is https://pregame.com/sportsbook_spy/default.aspx.
If posting that link is against the terms and conditions of this forum I apologize and please feel free to redact it from my post.
Right now the numbers indicate
74% of bettors on SEA -6.5
54% of bettors on UNDER 42.5
As it gets closer to TNF more squares will bet the game, inflating those numbers to probably somewhere around 81% and 65%.

Iam a Hawks Season Ticket Holder since 2002 so I think I have a bit of knowledge more then the average bettor when it comes to the Hawks. The last 3 years, this matchup were SBs for both teams. This year, this game is also a SB, meaning lose this one and forget the playoffs. Both teams will be balls to the walls. They know each other so well. However:
- Rookie coach (SF) vs. Carroll leans to Hawks.
- SF lost tremendous players on defense, lean to Hawks.
- The LOB though terrible this year, know Kap very well., lean to Hawks.
- Kap is no Cam Newton. Lean to Hawks.
- Rookie Hawks Defensive Coordinator, lean to Niners.
- SB Hangover is clearly still affecting Hawks. That brotherhood, that chemistry has let a window of doubt seep in and it will either continue spreading or halt. Lean to Niners.
- All Hawks stars got paid this year and last year. Not as hungry guys anymore. Lean to Niners.
- Hawks were in same disarray early last year and recovered. Lean to Hawks.
- Do or Die game, lean to Hawks (more talent).
The Niners to need to play smart/methodical. Establish and run the ball well. If they can't run, Kap will panic and turn it over. It could get ugly fast with a Hawks DTD.
I see it Hawks 27-19
I grabbed Hawks at -6

I for one do not think the SF team have a chance to win, but this -6 to -6.5 is making me think money line or no play. Not sure where the bait line is from? If the line was SEA -3 to 4.5 maybe........

Quit trying to be sharp by attempting to read the line.Line should be Seattle -3 at worst if you take everything into account.
I had typed out a longwinded response to this but instead I'll keep it simple. Sharps are not almighty God's. Any one of us can be a sharp. I've given my best interpretation of the game. I am confident that I will have successful results.

Hawks are a turf team and have trouble playing on grass surface - Waiting for public before kickoff to hammer more money on the Hawks and take Niners +7

My first thought on this game was Seattle seems to have the Niners number. My next thought the Seahawks give up way too many sacks. Things like that come back indirectly. Then I started thing about SF, and the main thing said about them this year was their qb has major major problems etc. Right now there are several reports about the sky is falling in Seattle also and that Cap is on how way back. Off the top of my head, I think Seattle is going to deliver a beatdown, but that is not my offical prediction. I may change this opinion after further examination.

Sea was 3-3 last year before making their SB run, I wouldn't put too much stock on sea current record. They are about to make their run and 9ers are in a very bad spot.

Teams that have an out right win as a dog (SF) in weeks 6,, shows there's a 64% percent chance of an under the following week.. Teams that lost out right as a favorite in weeks 6 shows also a 64% chance of an under.... Both sides of the equation says under... Of five years worth of data.... The Seahawks defense is healthy ,, and sf is banged up on Offense... Good luck with what ever you choose...

Thanks for that website info. Covers bettors almost always like favorites and over.
Huge support for STL helps bolster my CLV pick.

Looking at this game was a pass for me.Should be a very close game.Both teams match up very close,and I don't want to stress and sweat all game.That been said I see SF protecting their QB a bit better, but both teams about equal in other aspects.Like I said too close to call but if I had to bet on this game its San Fran ML at +246 would be my play. BOL

This year's SEA team is an entirely different team.
Different in what aspect is key? The core of the roster is still the same. - I respect your input, but I absolutely love Seattle in this game. How many on the SF roster really even understand the rivalry? Their defense is a mess. You have to take Kap's performance last week and put it into perspective and really look at who it was against. It's not like he lit up a top-rate defense. Shareece Wright was signed on 10/12 and the 49ers took advantage of their ex-teammate.
How healthy is Carlos Hyde. How's he going to bounce back on a short week. He gets hurt and they turn to who, Reggie Bush? Come on. Vernon Davis is living on a deserted island somewhere. Boldin says he's good to go, but is his hammy really hurt? Too many questions on offense for me to take them vs a pissed-off Seahawks defense, who by the way get back Bobby Wagner, Marcus Burley, and Tye Smith. Don't overlook that they also re-activated FB Derrick Coleman.
People wrote them off last season and you get the sense they like that. There's just too much of a talent difference here for me to consider taking the 49ers. They can't rush the quarterback and it seems as though Wilson and Jimmy Graham are finally on the same page. Who's going to cover him over the middle? I think this 49ers defense is exactly what the Seahawks needs right now to get themselves right.
