Too many "experts" saying we'll win. That bothers me.

Granted that is a very small spread, but it is strange that only 1 person (knowmo doesn't count) has voted for less than 50% odds of winning when Vegas is currently giving us less than 50% odds of winning.

I'm not going to get into this with you but I will say this: If teams are evenly matched, the odds are usually -3 in favor of the home team.

In a case like this, where the better team hasn't been proven, Vegas odds can't even favor Cleveland.

It's anyone's game, hence -1.5. It'll get closer by Sunday, meaning Vegas most likely will not earn any money from this game.

Oh yeah, Vegas? We've got something up our collective sleeves that you haven't figured in yet:

That's right....

We were supposed to lose Monday night also but the Chiefs are tired of losing.

Dane, I have been reading your posts for quite some time without ever responding. I have to say..... you are hilarious. I don't always agree with you and sometimes you are way over the top. But you never fail to be entertaining. Keep it up brother, and never back down. Back to lurking I go.

True fan.

I think the Chiefs will win outright..so...

How about the over/under @ 39?

I am taking the Chiefs to win outright (giving the points) parlayed with the over (every $40 wins ~$125 plus the 40 back....$100 would win ~$300 plus your hundo back).

I am going with my gut that says the over hits......Anyone have any thoughts on the over/under?

I dunno there seems to be plenty of experts saying we will crash back down to reality too. Hopefully they have headlines of last season's game from every Cleveland newspaper plastered all over the place.

I'm really surprised at the optimism here. I like it, but can't say I agree.

Agree with about 60%. Just a few too many questions for me right now to go higher, but at the same time I can totally see a win.

Like respect, confidence grows with every win/good performance. For example, stuff the Browns' run game and I'll be more confident about stopping Gore in W3 than I am right now.

Get to 3-0, simply compete with Indy/Houston (i.e. don't lose 35-7), and I'll be at 85-95% when it comes to Buffalo and Jacksonville at Arrowhead.

Marcellus 09-17-2010 02:51 PM

Funny thing is I think some people are pessimistic because we won week 1 and just can't see us going 2-0.

LMAO I am one of them even though I voted 70%.
