CD Newsletter Playoffs Week 1

Raiders / Bengals  -6.5  OU 49

Both teams first playoff appearance in like 7 years . Bengals dominated the first matchup . Books and public expect a shootout 

Pats / Bills  -4.5  OU 43.5

Split the season games . Two of the best defenses playing in a cold stadium . Have to check weather on this one . Should be a great game

Eagles / Bucs  -9  OU 49

Best rushing team vs the best passing team . This will come down to how well Hurts handles the pressure 

49ers / Cowboys  -3  OU 49.5

Should be a great game . Shrimp is giving rum to Joboo as we speak . Think this total is high . Lean under

Steelers / Chiefs  -13  OU 46.5

Hmmm. I just dont think the Steelers can keep up in this one . Ben just not mobile enough and wont have time to drop back.

Cards / Rams  -4  OU 50.5

Man the Rams look horrific . Definitely not the team they were early on . As a Cards fan I was surprised to see the books put out a 4 . Cards or nothing

Can't remember the year but Hugh ran his playoff football giveaway and I went close to 0-fer. I took all the dogs and the favs won at an unprecedented clip. Needless to say, I have no fucking clue who will cover or not cover. 

Are you sure this is the playoffs? 
the total is high for a playoff game 

it’s a little tough to cap these playoff games 

I don't see any dog winning su. And that's just terrible. 

@undermysac

49 ers gonna send Tigger back to the zoo where he belongs...

@bigred84

 Ravens have an easy one this w/e. 

@lbcake

English Muffin stay in your lane......

That's what you know...

Chelsea rules...

Playoff teams by conference ranked by total DVOA (first number). Second number is weighted DVOA which rewards recent form, and the third number is point differential.

AFC

BUFF   3, 5, +194

NE   4, 1, +159

KC   6, 3, +116

CINCI   17, 14, +84

TENN   19, 15, +65

LVR   21, 20, (65)

PITT   23, 26, (55)

NFC

DALL   1, 2, +172

TB   2, 6, +158

LARAM   5, 8, +88

SF   7, 9, +62

GB   8, 4, +79

ZONA   10, 13, +83

PHIL   13, 11, +59

The only 2 home teams of the 6 wildcard games who have a better home win % than the opponent has road win % are KC and TB. 

Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

Relax, it's only 8 months until the Shrimp play another game.

Just wear your Ray Lewis underoos while sitting in your purple painted living room and beating off to your Ray Rice Fathead. (couple of upstanding citizens named Ray right there ) That will make it go faster ... and don't forget to read  the latest issue of "Why Punt Returners Suck At QB" magazine while wearing your Ngata jersey with the mustard stains on it

@trainwreck66

Going by the match-ups, the NFL gave us 1 good game on each of the 3 days.

The regular season finished in epic form. As soon as BWS said something about the days games sucking, we got the SF-LAR game, and then the LAC-LV game. Couple of great matches back to back. Good finish to the regular season

@Hugh_Jorgan

No doubt.....my plays sucked yesterday but half unit bets with teasers and such as its usually a debacle . Watching the Indy postgame was good though . Can someone explain why bigred is so angry ? He did PM me and has a bucket of KFC ...rum and candles going under the Joboo statue . If the Cowboys lose to the 49ers we may have an unprecedented number of posts that may last well into the summer . You fellas need to play WKBL unders though if you can 

Black Monday has begun ...

Zimmer out in Minny (djbrow is dancing somewhere), as is the GM.

Miami and Chicago are also in the market for new HC's as of this morning.

Add them to Denver, Jax, and the Raiders of teams looking for a new HC.

I can't imagine that Joe Judge will be back with the Giants, or Culley back with the Texans.

Other potential firings but not as likely ...

Ruhle in Carolina and Carroll in Seattle.

@Getty3

 Thanks for posting those #'s. I'm convinced that a team from the nfc wins the SB.

I talked about picking the nfc to win the SB a few weeks ago when I posted dvoa stuff. They early options were either afc or nfc -.5 for -110 each. Today at Betonline the nfc is -2.5 ats, and -140 ML.

Dallas might be the best team in the playoffs by the #'s. They just need to button up and play clean. Too many penalties, but that's kind of a Mccarthy thing. The guy isn't a drill sergeant. 

Numbers are cute but when you look at a meh record against good teams (over .500) including wins against backup QB's (Hill, Cashew)...    add in history of playoff chokes, nobody should be too high on them

The Steelers ran fewer plays while having a lead this year than the Texans did.

The Steelers are preparing to play the Chiefs in the playoffs

That's great

@Hugh_Jorgan

Chitforbrains u leave the field next week.....

Im just pissed we dont get to play you clowns next season..

Promise you we wouldnt pass...We lost to the Packers/Rams by 

2 points combined..Promise you ,you wont be seeing them this month...

@bigred84
