This one has been mailed in already. Denver will win and cover.
NFL coaches would make good poker players. Why?
Tony Dungy is telling anyone who cares to listen that his team is going to Denver to win. Nice bluff Tony. Seriously, what did you expect him to say?
After a big come from behind win last week against the Chargers including breaking a season long record (TD passes)this game will be a let down. How can it not be? Consider the facts:
1) Indy does not want to face the Bills
2) Dungy will not show Denver their 'A' game because they will likely meet in the first round.
3) Indy will put the back-ups in for at least a half
4) Denver has incentive
5) Shanahan has been there done it
I suppose you can make arguments for and against till the cows come home but you must remember linesmakers do not put up spreads like this(-9)lightly. Remember the Rams on MNF?
Final thought. We all know football is an emotional game and without it a team is not going to win. Period.
Having said that, Indy has no incentive so why should I believe their 2nd string players can beat Denvers best?
No team is that deep. Im betting on it.
