The teams played head to head, the Saints winning, are separated by 2 degrees as follows:

1 New_Orleans-->Seattle

The spread is New Orleans by as much as 11.5 and the computer has them winning but not by that much.  Here is the pick using the format from the newsletter:

.xSeattle              +11.5 over  *          New_Orleans  4.5  7.0 0.621 0.681

Enjoy!

  1. Dude, just use Pinnaclesports.com for the betting line. Anything else is less accurate.

  2. @Wheell, not sure what you mean by accurate. If there is an advertised line that is more advantageous to you, aren't you going to bet using it?
