    Generally a push and depending on the bookie you get your money back.

    What website are you looking at? They should have outright win options also.

    Paddypowers odds is where I did my bet

    what happens if the saints win by 7 nobody wins?:confused:

    If the Saints win by 7 the Cards are within 7 so I'd imagine people who bet on the Cards win their bets and people who backed the Saints lose their bets

    Nope the Cards need to lose by Less than 7 or win outright. If they lose by 7 it pushes.

    Im with the Saints also. They have that solid Passing game but they also have a solid running game as well and the ability to variate between the two. If both fire on all cylinders it will be too much for the Cardinals. But I do think the Saints D has to pressure Warner. No pressure and this will be a shootout.

    Ye I agree with you on this if Warner is given the chance he could control the game, Who's your pick for the Super Bowl personally I think its going to be the Chargers year with a strong chance of a Saints v Chargers final

    Im going to come out of left field and say:

    Jets V. Vikings Bowl.

    Darrelle Revis for me is key in the Jets game against the Chargers. He is a pure shutdown corner and what a season he is having. I see him taking Jackson out of the game and forcing Rivers to use his other options. I also see the Jets Defense pressure both Rivers and Gates and making the Chargers run the ball something they haven't done efficiently all season long.

    I hate the Jets with a passion but good football speaks for itself and the Jets are a contender now. Surprise package of the playoffs.

    Predictions: Saints by 14, Colts by 10, Vikings in tight game, Jets in low scoring match.

    Ive backed the Saints to win but I wouldnt write off the Cards running game. Beanie Wells is a good runner that has gotten good productivity as a singleback this year with defences having to bring in a nickel corner and maybe another corner, or put a backer outside, when the cards spread the field with four reciever. The Cards create space for Wells to run into by spreading out the field with multiple reciever sets.

    As you say its all about the Saints D getting pressure on the Cards and doing whatever is possible to shut down Larry Fitz(make Warner and the Cards beat you with their second and third reads by always giving safety help for the corner on Fitzgerald.) Cant wait for this game could be a classic!

    I predicted that Jackson won't get many looks, but if you have a look back at the Chargers they did this for two games on the trot late in the season and won both games by big margins. I totally agree that Revis is exceptional but he can only cover one of the 6'5" receivers. I don't see any way the Jets can shut down that whole offense.

    I agree, I think the only way to get to the Charger's Offense, is to get to Rivers. i think the Colts have a pretty good chance of putting himunder pressure, but really if you want to beat them you need to score at least 30 points. i think the colts have a chance of doing that too - the Ravens and jets don't, IMO.

    Well rest doesn't appear to have led to any rust for the Saints. Hope the Colts can start this sharp.

    big recovery by warner. The toll of last weeks game may have a bigger effect on the cards tonight than i thought. And the dome won't benefit them either. Some noise in the place.

    The toll of last weeks game? What has that got to do with anything? They should be more up for this game than the Saints right now. The Key here is the pressure on Warner.
