Top 5 greatest film score.


@JojoTheWhale Godzilla vs Megalon, which is currently on, features one of the best lazy-writer computer science tropes. The robot Jet Jaguar, after becoming self-aware (he is casually programmed to do this and the inventor saw no issues with this) grows to immense size to fight Megalon. The inventor casually remarks "Oh, he must have somehow programmed himself to increase his size." Yeah, that's how things work.

I'm in IT (software dev). My wife is an RN. We both LOL at watching movies/TV where they combine terms to make it sound official.

No one knows how healthy either QB is. My bet is don't bet on this game.

Make us feel comfortable that the Eagles can/will beat Andy

In Super Bowl history this will be the third time that the #1 passing offense goes against the #1 passing defense.

The results? The #1 defenses have won by an average of 31 points.

Gannon against the Bucs and Manning against Seattle.

The story of Super Bowl 48 wasnt the Seattle defense though. it was that Denver couldnt stop the Seahawks offense. Think the Chiefs will have problems stopping them too. Not to that extent but I feel pretty good about this matchup, even if it is a still great (but gimpy) Mahomes.

Uh, the Broncos scored 8 points.

Nah, I know. I really think it's just a toss-up. No one's more than 53% to win this to me.

QB health assumed, at least.

That's what I wA looking for - albeit lazily I suppose- who is the 53% in favor of?


I know the eagles have been good because obvious reasons. I dont know how they line up against the chiefs tactically but assuming Mahomes is reasonable, I assume the 53% is Eagles. If Mahomes is unreasonable I imagine the pendulum swings wildly rhe other way.
 
@Hollywood Cannon PointsBet opened KC -2.5?! That must have been a stampede. That is one WEIRD decision.

I honestly don't know. I ran this through my NFL process and it spit out a pick 'em line. And I can't say it feels wrong.

We TOPed nearly 2-1 today. The first half TO and running the ball was crushing.

Is Dickerson ok? Our OLine is a huge strength, things were open for Burrow, but he was under duress A LOT.

No turnovers please, and I think their D has a haaaard time.

I know that, but they couldnt stop the Seahawks. They scored on their first 4 drives I believe plus the pick 6 and then kick return. Watched that game recently again.

Regardless, the Eagles wont beat up the Chiefs like that on both sides of the ball. I think this will be a win though.

I saw a screenshot of KC -1.5 on FanDuel. I didn’t see a time stamp or anything but I assume it was when it first opened. Who knows if it was -2.5 also.

It definitely is something that says something but not quite sure what yet with how quick it turned.

I had to do a double take because by the time I saw the screenshot the Eagles were obviously already favorites based off of what I saw.
