Armadillo: Wednesday's six-pack

Early odds to win next year's Super Bowl, in Glendale, AZ

6-1-- Seahawks/Broncos-- Favored to get to this Super Bowl, too.

7-1-- 49ers-- Been in NFC title game three years in a row.

12-1-- Patriots-- Maybe if Brady had better receivers.

15-1-- Packers/Saints-- New Orleans could use home playoff games.

18-1-- Falcons/Bengals-- Need bounceback years from their QBs.

20-1-- Panthers-- Higher odds than Atlanta? Interesting.

Armadillo: Wednesday's List of 13: AFC teams' playoff histories

What follows is a study of AFC teams’ playoff records during the Super Bowl era (1966-2013). Ravens’ record includes the Browns up until 1995. Record in parentheses is total playoff record over last 47 years.

Baltimore (19-20)—Were 1-7 in road playoff games as the Browns, are 8-5 in Baltimore. Defense driven, won Super Bowls with Dilfer/Flacco at QB.

Buffalo (11-15)—Played in four straight Super Bowls, lost all four; 9-2 in home playoff games, 3-12 in road/neutral games. Cincinnati (5-12)—Lost last six playoff games, with last win in ’89. 0-8 all-time away from home in playoffs.

Cleveland (0-1) – New Browns’ greatest moment was 36-33 loss at Pittsburgh in ’02, their only playoff game; they keep firing coaches every year, it’ll be their only playoff game ever.

Denver (20-17)—14-4 in Mile High playoff games; 8-1 in first nine, 6-3 in last nine. Win this week at home and they go to their 7th Super Bowl (2-4).

Houston (2-2)—Home side won all four of their playoff games (2-0 at home, 0-2 on road). Now we’ll see what Bill O’Brien can do.

Indianapolis (18-20)—Took Manning few years to win his playoff game, so be patient with Luck; Colts are 2-6 in playoff games since beating Bears in Super Bowl seven years ago.

Jacksonville (5-6)—Tom Coughlin’s greatest work; played in AFC title game in second season, then hosted same game three years later, but lost both. 33-14 home loss to Titans in ’99 has to especially sting.

Kansas City (7-15)—Total of only seven playoff wins despite playing in two of first four Super Bowls. Are 2-5 in home playoff games; haven’t won in postseason in 20 years, losing last seven playoff games.

Miami (20-19)—Outscored 74-12 in last three playoff games; last playoff win was in ’01. 3-11 overall in playoff road games.

New England (25-16)—Sunday will be their first road playoff game in seven years, since 38-34 loss at Indy. Won three Super Bowls, none since Spygate.

NJ Jets (13-13)—Only seven of 26 games were played at home, with last one 41-0 win over Colts in ’02. Their win in Super Bowl III paved way for AFL-NFL merger.

Oakland (26-18)—Used to have a great history, now haven’t been in playoffs since 2002. Home teams are 31-8 SU in their non-Super Bowl playoff games- their last road playoff win was at San Diego. In 1980.

Pittsburgh (33-20)—9-3 in last 12 playoff games, have six Super Bowl titles, only three head coaches since 1969. Easy to forget that Neil O’Donnell once started a Super Bowl for them.

San Diego (10-13)—One of only two teams (Chiefs 2-7) with losing records in home playoff games during this era. Chargers are 7-6 in games decided by 7 or less points, 3-7 in games decided by more than seven.

Tennessee (12-18)—Best Oiler teams ran up against great Steel Curtain Steeler teams. Haven’t been to playoffs since ’08, haven’t won game there since ’03. Only 5-5 in home playoff games.

NFL line watch: Seahawks bettors search for a FG spread

Spread to bet now

New England Patriots (+4.5) at Denver Broncos

The Patriots were only 8-8 ATS this season, but in their four SU losses (all on the road), there were no blowouts. They got edged by a touchdown in Cincinnati, were taken down by four points twice (Miami, Carolina) and got beat by the Jets in overtime by a field goal. The Pats also got the raw end of calls at New York and Carolina, so they could have easily been 6-2 away from Gillette.

New England just doesn’t get blown out on the road, so it’s worth taking a long look at grabbing the points in what is shaping up as a field-goal game in Colorado. The Patriots are running the ball more than they ever have in the Brady-Belichick Era, and Belichick doesn’t mind playing in tight games in Denver.

Spread to wait on

San Francisco 49ers (+3.5) at Seattle Seahawks

Some books have this at three with a bigger vig bite, which indicates that the oddsmakers aren’t all that sure about the extra half a point. It’s been four month since the Niners - disorganized at the time - went in to Seattle and got spanked. Since then San Francisco has figured things out, and playing on the road doesn’t seem to be all that much of an issue.

The concern is that the Niners might be a little worn down after winning two consecutive road elimination games (Green Bay, Carolina), and now have to win in a tough environment. Might be a good idea to get a grip on how fresh the Niners seem at the end of the week before wagering. Seahawks boosters can use that time to shop for a 3-point line with normal -110 vig.

Total to watch

San Francisco 49ers at Seattle Seahawks (39)

This is the lowest posted number in the playoffs - and with good reason. Six consecutive Seattle games have gone Under, and both Niners playoff games (and seven of the last 10) haven’t reached the Over. Both of these teams have crushed the Under, but the adjustment has been made and it looks like it’s time for bettors to adjust as well.

When the teams met way back in September, San Francisco turned over the ball to Seattle five times (two fumbles, three INTs). That’s not likely going to happen again. With Colin Kaepernick confident, the Niners should move the ball.

NFL Championship Sunday betting trends and stats

NFL’s version of the Final Four kicks off this Sunday in the conference championship games, where surprises aplenty have certainly been the buzzword.

That’s confirmed by the fact that underdogs have managed to pull off upsets in 15 of 46 title games since the 1990 season - the most recent being the Baltimore Ravens’ victory over New England at Foxboro last year, and the New York Giants’ win at San Francisco two years ago, with both teams going on to capture the coveted Super Bowl.

Let’s take a quick look at what’s worked and what hasn’t in the championship games, because when it comes to handicapping games at this stage of the season we can certainly use every edge imaginable.

Note: all results are ATS (Against The Spread) and are since the 1990 season, unless noted otherwise.

What a rush

Running the football is tantamount to success in the NFL, especially in the playoffs.

It’s no coincidence that since the Giants’ 21-17 win over the Patriots in Super Bowl XLVI that 18 of the last 20 straight-up playoff winners have rushed the ball for 100 or more yards, including all eight winners this season.

Teams who have managed to gain 110 or more rushing yards in a conference championship game have gone 19-9 SU and 20-8 ATS, including 9-1 ATS as dogs of four or more points.

While all four of this week’s combatants average more than 100 rushing yards per game on the season, only Denver and San Francisco surrender less than 100 yards on the ground per contest.

The Patriots allow the most yards on the ground, at 130 YPG.

Situationally speaking

The linemakers have done a nice job overall during this round, with favorites checking in at 26-22 ATS and home teams 22-26 ATS since 1990.

Teams off a road win (San Francisco) are 15-11 ATS, while teams off a win but no cover are 12-8 ATS, including 8-3 ATS when riding a pair of wins.

That’s music to the ears of Denver and Seattle backers.

Gravity alert

While high-scoring games are the norm in the NFL these days, teams arriving to the championship round off a high-scoring effort in their last game tend to come back to earth harder than a sky diver with a defective chute.

Half of the 34 teams in this round who put 34 or more points on the scoreboard in a divisional round victory fell short of the Super Bowl, going 17-17 SU and 12-22 ATS.

Worse, if these same teams are taking on an .800 or greater foe they fall to 3-9 SU and 4-8 ATS in title games.

That puts New England on hard ground this Sunday.

Been there done that

Three of the four head coaches have had the luxury of coaching team in conference championship games – namely Bill Belichick, Jon Fox and Jim Harbaugh.

New England’s Belichick brings a 5-2 SU and 3-4 ATS record (0-4 ATS last four) with the Patriots in AFC Championship Games into this week’s fray. Furthermore, “The Hoodie” is 0-4 ATS in title games after scoring 24 or more points his previous playoff contest.

Meanwhile, Fox has made two NFC Championship Game appearances with Carolina, splitting out 1-1 SU and ATS – both as an underdog.

San Francisco returns to the NFC Championship Game for the third straight year under Jim Harbaugh. The Niners are 1-1 SU and 0-1-1 ATS in these games under his lead.

Seattle’s Pete Carroll is a conference championship game virgin.

Over there

Points aplenty have forced the linemakers to raise the Over/Under totals bar.

It’s what happens when there have been 29 Overs, 19 Unders and 1 Push in conference championship games.

Surprisingly, the higher the total them more Overs there have been as games with a posted total set at 46 or more points going 10-5 O/U.

Stat of the Week

The last No. 1 seed from the NFC to win a Super Bowl game was the 1999 St. Louis Rams.

Basketball bettors beware Heat's lack of motivation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Miami Heat treat the regular season like a child in the backseat, five minutes into a five-hour car drive to Disney Land.

Are we there yet?

Except, the five-hour drive is an 82-game schedule. And Disney Land is the NBA Playoffs.

After winning back-to-back titles and posting a 27-game winning streak in 2012-13, Miami has little motivation to prove anything during the regular season - something that has NBA bettors questioning their wagers on the world champs.

The Heat, at 16-21 ATS (27-10 SU), have lost back-to-back games three times already this season – something that only happened three times total last year - and have plenty of key players, including LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, nursing injuries. Those are big reasons why head coach Erik Spoelstra gave his troops an unheard of full two days off following a double-overtime loss to Brooklyn Friday.

With a soft schedule ahead – at Washington, at Philadelphia, at Charlotte, at Atlanta, vs. Boston, vs. L.A Lakers – could there be more value in betting against the Heat as they yawn their way to the postseason?

All the interview photo bombs and silly "nickname" jerseys may not be enough to make Miami interested.

Weak against the weak

Miami's most concerning stat is their SU record playing sub .500 teams. Of their 10 losses on the season, half of those have come to teams with losing records.

Struggles to beat inferior opponents have also contributed to their sub .500 record ATS, burning bettors laying huge piles of chalk to play the champs. Blown covers against Sacramento, Orlando and Philadelphia prove the Heat are playing down to their competition.

Home woes

Where the Heat have struggled the most is at home. In South Beach, the Heat's ATS record is 7-12 while compared to a 9-9 ATS mark on the road. It seems that the Heat do better with the motivation of playing in enemy territory. But only slightly.

Injuries mounting

Part of the Heat's desire to conserve energy may just be a survival tactic. The miles of three straight Finals runs are already catching up to Wade, and PG Mario Chalmers and SF Shane Battier are also missing time.

You can't blame Spoelstra for limiting the minutes of veterans who need to remain healthy for the playoffs. Wade and Battier are both probable to play against Washington Wednesday, but expect Spoelstra to continue to monitor their minutes.

Soft slate ahead

The next six games are incredibly soft for the Heat, featuring a slate in which five of the six teams are below .500 (Atlanta is 20-18). With the Heat struggling to beat teams holding losing records – let alone cover - there is value to be found in these pending games.

Miami may be looking toward high-profile games at the end of the month against San Antonio and Oklahoma City. If bettors can spot which teams will hang tough with an uninspired Heat squad, there should be plenty of value on the board with Miami commanding some hefty spreads.

NHL Top 3: Injury-plagued teams getting healthy
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Often NHL teams can fall behind due to early-season injuries but once those players get healthy and return, there is value in betting them when the books are still treating them like a losing team. Here are three teams that have recently returned key players and could show added value to the NHL moneylines.

Detroit Red Wings (20-16-3-7)

The Red Wings are without star players Pavel Datsyuk, Johan Franzen, Daniel Alfredsson, and Henrik Zetterberg all because of injuries. Detroit is trying to stay competitive in the Atlantic, however, its 1-7 shootout record shows that without these playmakers the Wings will continue to fall behind in the standings.

These players are slowly making their returns, and their replacements are cooking up chemistry and winning some games on their own. With Jimmy Howard back between the pipes, the Red Wings will likely improve on their minus-9 goal against differential.

Florida Panthers (17-21-2-5)

Veteran defenseman Ed Jovanovski missed 83 games dating back to last season since undergoing hip surgery and has sparked Florida to a 2-2 record since his return. Left winger Sean Bergenheim missed 10 games with a lower-body injury but is back in the lineup and has six goals in his last eight games.

Goaltender Tim Thomas, who has been battling injuries all season, has only played 26 games with a .916 save percentage and 2.57 GAA. With these three players being eased back into the lineup, the Panthers could climb out of the Eastern Conference basement and present big moneyline value in upcoming games.

Phoenix Coyotes (21-15-5-4)

The Coyotes were one of the most hyped teams going in the season. Despite a solid start, they find themselves falling behind in the Pacific Division, and injuries are a big reason for that slide. With team leader Shane Doan out for almost an entire month due to illness, the physical play of the Coyotes disappeared.

Phoenix struggled without left winger Lauri Korpikoski's speed and penalty-kill presence, with the Finland native playing in just 29 games due to an upper-body injury. The Coyotes are 26th in the league in penalty kill (77.9 percent) and are the only team without a short-handed goal. Now that these two are back, Phoenix may be able to stop the bleeding when down a man.
