I don't know about "easy" but I know someone who will be in Vegas this weekend and I plan on having them put $20 on that for me.

There are really no good bets here. I think Phi/Atl over 39 is probably the best.

No kidding. If Big Ben has a good game, Pit beats NE again. But I think it could go either way. Definately lower scoring though.

If Vick is really hot, ATL has a shot over PHI.

I would take the Eagles giving 5, but the under for the Pats/Steelers is just too damn sexy

However whenever people think it's a lock to be under, it's usually a high scoring game... so I don't know

Both teams have pretty good, creative offenses. Last time they played the score was 34-20. I think over on that game is more likely than under.

I think ATL/PHI will go under because both defenses give up a lot of yardage, but sure up in the red zone resulting in lot's of FG's instead of TD's. I see the score to be something like 20-13 so under 39. I think ATL will win so I'll take the +5 there. NO/PIT I can see this one going over the 35.5 and PIT with +3.0 (not many people giving steelers a chance like not many people were giving patriots a chance against colts previous week). ATL-Under, PIT-Over.

Agreed.

Ne over 35.5 would be my second choice. Yeah they have good defenses, but that is an awfully low combined score. If the score were 20-17 it would already be over.
