OK heading out to Vegas on Thursday (Wiiiii) and although not a big NFL followers we planning on watching the wildcard games on the Sunday as imagine it will be a big deal over there and the thought of lazy day in a sportsbook is appealing after likely heavy Saturday night
So 2 requests please
1) I know alot of you follow the NFL closely so suggestions for bets in these games please (particularly the Sunday games but any of the 4 will do)... Just looking for a decent punt!
2) Suggestions on where to watch it... we thinking of one of the sports books but if you got any other suggestions fire away?
Much appreciated

Caesars palace has a massive sportbook right next to the poker room entrance usually a good atmosphere.
Picking winners is not my area of expertise.

I was there a few weeks back mate and you will be able to watch them in all the sportsbooks. I did like the Mirage tho as there was loads of room but if you like a beer as you watch the Planet Hollywood sportsbook has the bar next to it,so you can sit in a bar and watch it as well as seeing the game lines at the same time. Only problem is that is quite a small sportsbook. |

Venetian has a large sportsbook with a bar on one side and my favourite Asia Noodles next to it where you can eat and watch sports should you wish to.

Bellagio sportsbook is definitely my choice, they comp drinks there while most sportsbooks charge.
As for bets I absolute love Cincy -2.5, going to have the lot on this.
Would like New England too, but Welker is going to be a huge loss.

havent seen the spread but heres my suggestions
Cincy will beat NY Jets by about 7-10 (last week was just the reserves playing)
Green Bay will beat Arizona tho i traditionally dont like going against the home team in the playoffs
New England will beat Baltimore itll be close ish but homefield advantage , lots of experience in high pressure games and Bill Bellichecks scheming are too many factors for the ravens to over come
Dallas will beat Philadelphia i think but id stay away from this one as divisional rival games the rulebook gets thrown out really could go any which way

I've got a soft spot for them. Pretty harsh the way they lost it last year, wouldn't mind if Warner and co. had another crack at it.
I like Larry Fitzgerald. When he scores a touchdown he just tosses the ball to the ref and runs off to the sidelines. I like it because pretty much no-one else does that, every other offensive player in the NFL seems to have their own choreographer.
He quietly ships 10 TDs a year and I reckon the defences he faces would scheme more against him if he had a higher profile. The lack of signature dance probably helps his team.
