🏈🏈The Official 2019 Super Bowl Poll🏈🏈

I know there's still the playoffs to go and stuff but I thought it would be more fun to make a poll now. It will be all the more impressive if you can pick the right team now.

Even though I'm not a fan of theirs I'm gonna have to go with the Patriots given the fact that the have an incredible ability to step up under post season pressure.

I secretly want the Rams to win... That would be great if they could beat the Pats in the Super Bowl... But given the Pats impressive playoffs/Super Bowl performance in recent years I would put my money on them.

Any reason why I might be wrong? I'd like to hear your opinions.

Here's the record of my vote:

Wow, not too many Super Bowl fans out there I guess...

I bet on the saints before the season, so I hope they win. I wouldn't mind seeing anyone win but the Patriots.

I agree with you, I'm pretty sick of seeing the Patriots win. But one thing I've learned is that you can't let emotions cloud your judgments if there's money on the line.

So you took the Saints before the season started... What were your odds for that? Like 12:1?

Gonna be rooting for the Rams on Saturday though I don't think I'll put any money on it.

I guess NFL doesn't really mix with Bitcointalk.

I'll go with Kansas City, if not the Rams.
Anyone but the Patriots actually. Grin

I went with Los Angeles Chargers, I'm not a fan of American football though but, I've once placed bet recently on Los Angeles Chargers against Denver broncos and won. Cheesy

It would be nice, If tips and predictions could be shared on this thread, I'll be looking to make some bets.

Ill go with New England Patriots. Top stats on AFC East but lets see how this one goes.

I wouldn't mind if the Chargers won this one. Last time they made it to the Super Bowl was 1995, and they've never won! Philip Rivers is a top notch QB, probably doesn't have too many years left in him -- this could be his last real shot.

I wish I could offer you some predictions but I got crushed this year, lost over 50% of my regular season bets. Two teams that tend to outperform through the whole year were the Rams and the Chiefs, but when it comes to playoffs, team performance tends to be a different story. You want to look for teams that have a proven record of being able to handle the stress and the pressure of post-regular season play, which the Patriots have.

This is what we going on for Saturday and Sunday:

My picks are in bold:

301 Indianapolis
302 Kansas City    -4½

303 Dallas
304 L.A. Rams    -7

305 L.A. Chargers
306 New England   -4½

307 Philadelphia
308 New Orleans   -8

I feel most confident about New England... The spread is pretty low for that one IMO. Likewise, the spread is just too high for New Orleans, otherwise I would have picked them... Even at 7... 6 and 1/2 would have been ideal to pick N.O. for that one.

I have voted for New England and glad that I have voted the same as with the other users here in the forum.

Can someone send some betting platform for the upcoming games? I would try to bet some with the upcoming games and events. This is fun and at the same time it made more excitement when one could win after the bet. Let's have some popcorn with the events. I'm pretty sure it would be good.

I love watching American football because of its intense gameplay but I admit that I'm not updtaed with its current happenings. Honestly, the last time I've watch NFL is when Seattle Seahawks won the championship against the Denver Broncos I think. That was a long time ago Grin

. Hmm, I guess I need to watch the playoffs so I can catch up and make my own prediction.

I have to go with the Chargers they look promising after beating the Ravens on the wild card round. It would be amazing if they beat another strong team like the Patriots. This could be a good time for them to win the superbowl if they can keep the momentum going. I would root for another underdog like the Colts or Cowboys if the Chargers doesn't win against Patriots tomorrow I really want to see an underdog win the superbowl. Cheesy

Well, the spread is only 4.5 for the game, so obviously the linemakers think they have some potential. During the regular season an average spread against the Pats was like 8 or 9... or higher if they were playing against a shitty team.

2 teams out of the running, and I'm 2/2 in my picks so far...

Putting a tiny wager on the Patriots tonight to beat the Chargers tomorrow by >4... line shifted favorably by half a point in the last couple of days.

Alright, 4 for 4 with my playoff picks... Just barely won with the Saints winning by only six.

Too bad I didn't do some sort of Playoff Parlay, I would have nailed it.

Two fantastic games coming up next Sunday.

Without looking at the lines, I'm taking Rams over Saints and Patriots over Chiefs.

Boom, called it again. I'm 6 for 6 in my post season picks. Both Rams and Patriots were underdogs and they both won outright.

I would really like the Rams to beat the Pats, but as I said before, Pats just have more playoff and super bowl experience so I think ultimately they'll win... yet again....

OK well this was a pretty unpopular thread, but let's do this:

Pats will win by 3 pts or more. Spread is currently 2.5 in their favor.

I want the Rams to win, but going by my prior philosophy which has worked thus far, Patriots will win because they really excel in post season play, and last year's Super Bowl was no exception.

Pats for the big SB win.

Doesn't look like there are too many NFL fans on this forum Huh

I'm not a big fan but I did watch the Chiefs-Patriots and for Tom to get past those three 3rd and longs was CLUTCH.

I guess I'll go with the patriots since Tom Brady has already won five. Why not make it six titles like Michael Jordan Cheesy

My prediction is 34-27 Patriots win.

OK so only a few more days before the big game. I'm gonna have to go with the Pats to win by 3 or more. Rams just don't have the playoffs experience that the Pats do. If the Rams win I'll eat my hat.

Booyah! Pats win, 13-3. Congrats to everybody who bet on the Pats, but not the Pats themselves, because Tom Brady already had 5 Super Bowl rings.

Fuckin' 7 for 7 in my post season picks and its all documented here.

Why can't I do that kind of a streak during the regular season???!

Well, that was fun. Best part is I don't have to eat my hat.
