LVRJ: Vegas Sportsbooks ride Hawks wave
Sports books ride Seahawks all the way to bank
http://www.reviewjournal.com/columns...s-all-way-bank If this game pitted the sharps against the squares, it was a one-sided slaughter of the public. The Seattle Seahawks, who got a majority of the sharp action, stuck it to Denver 43-8 on Sunday in the type of Super Bore that launched the proliferation of proposition bets. But.. About the safety... Will there be a safety? The “yes” side cashed, for the third consecutive year, at plus-550. The first scoring play of the game being a Seattle safety paid off 50-1 to 60-1 odds. The first score of the game being anything other than a touchdown returned plus-150. Add up the three results, Bogdanovich said, and his books took about a $140,000 loss.

Every square I knew was on the Broncos, every sharp on the Seahawks....so not surprised.

I picked Seattle on this website before the season. I said 10 days before kickoff that I was playing Seattle heavy. Ultimate get out for the shitty year. I'll tell you now a year ahead of time..... Seattle repeats and I'm putting half of my winnings on them from last night on them to win it all at 5-1.

Eventually this team has to lose some guys. Everyone on that D gets paid eventually. But not this year. They will bring back almost the same team. With a healthy Percy who proved how valuable he is last night. I think these guys play with a huge chip. Wilson, Sherman, Chanceller none of them first or second round picks. All hungry. I think they will be better. Plus they have the NFC east next year. Worst division in the NFL. Only real competition would be a healthy GB and Rodgers. I think San Fran is great, but Seattle does everything they do, but better.

Seattle is 7 points better then all of them at home, except San Fran and a healthy Packer team.

I think it is much harder than you think to repeat. 5-1 isn't enough of a price for me. But I agree the NFC is likely to be pretty dominate again next year.

I doubt either team does better than 3rd place in their own divisions.

My brother just returned from Vegas. He said that the wise-guys were all over the Hawks. One of his many side wagers on Seattle was for a defensive shutout which would have paid huge....
On SAT, he also ran into Toby Keith at the Wynn's Sports book and bet on his maiden "Retro Ridge" who paid $44.80 to win....

Tebow would have gave Denver a much better chance. The run first QBs have hurt Seattle.
