We are proud to announce Coach K has been signed to a 1 year, incentive based contract with HC&P! Here is his entry today:
NFL
5* Saints -3 (bought 1/2)
3* Jets +9
2* Saints/Vikes under 54
2* Saints +200 to win the Super Bowl
Well fellas, we've got ourselves 3 games left in the NFL and I plan on taking home all 3! Let's get right to it...WHO DAT WHO DAT WHO DAT GONNA BEAT DEM SAINTS?! Nobody! Not Brett Favre. Not Peyton Manning. Don't be surprised to see the Jets take out Manning today.
Without giving you every stat in the book that anyone can look up for themselves I'll give you the very simple and easy reasons why the Saints not only destroy the Vikes today, but win the Super Bowl. First off, home field advantage. The Vikes are 4-4 on the road this year losing their last 3 in a row. 3 of their road wins came in the first 5 weeks of the season when they were playing their "best ball of the year" against the likes of the Rams, Browns and Lions. Woo hoo! Their only other road win came against the Packers.
I think we all how the Saints have done this year at home and the advantage the Super Dome gives them. Aside from the last couple of games in the regular season, when the Saints were clearly resting ppl, they have dominated at home. But, here is the BIG reason why they will have success today...NOISE! Look at what the Vikes fans did to Romo and the Boys last week. Look at what the Saints fans did to Warner and the Cards. When the offensive line cannot hear, they are a split second slower, giving the defense a slight advantage on every passing down. Since the Vikes and AP have not shown they have been able to run the ball or take control on the ground for the last 7-8 weeks or so, I'm going to bet they won't have a whole lot of success today. Thus, forcing the Vikes into predictable passing situations and giving the Saints a clear advantage!
Bottom line here...Saints by 2 TD's or more. And with that said, we'll go ahead and play the Saints -3 and buy the half point for a little insurance (just in case, b/c we all know how important that 1/2 pt can be on the number 3).
I'm going to keep this one small...the Jets seem to be a team of destiny right now and with the Joes in love with the Colts, it makes me like the Jets even more. The Colts seem to have snuck by all year long. They've trailed in half of their games this year so that tells me they are a very good team to have won the amount of games they have won, but it also tells me they are beatable.
Anytime we're getting more than a TD and I have a top tier defense, I have to take a look. Anytime, that top tier defense is a top tier running team, I have nice looking play. Anytime those 2 factors are going up against a team who isn't a top tier defense, I'm ready to put my money where my mouth is. Bottom line here is I feel the Jets have a very good chance to steal a W tonight. We're looking at a total of 40 in this game (down from 41) so Vegas and the sharps both feel there won't be a ton of points scored in this game and neither do I. Can the Jets put up 17 points today? Yes. Will they hold Indy to 24 or less? Most likely. If the Jets score 17 or more this baby cashes.
