Also, Carolina's 26-year old CB Ken Lucas played four seasons with the Seahawks and will be
facing his old team on Sunday. The money poured in on the Colts and the
game to go 'Over' the total. To him, a 13-6 win is just as good
as 27-13.But Carolina's underdog prowess will be tested by Mike Holmgren's Seahawks. Good luck as
always...Al McMordie.Al McMordie is a documented member of the Professional Handicappers League. There are plenty
of other side stories too. The Seahawks' Matt Hasselbeck was a sixth-round pick out of
Boston College, while the Panthers' Jake Delhomme wasn't drafted at all out of Louisiana-Lafayette. And
two years ago, few thought the upstart Panthers could go very far, until they won
at Philadelphia in the NFC Championship game to advance to their first Super Bowl.Ahh, the
Panthers....And here they are again, one win away from their second Super Bowl. It's often
too much to ask Carolina to cover the number as chalk, since this team doesn't
explode offensively. It's not 925 silver where you're selected, but how hard you work at your craft.
But I believe Peppers will be ready to go Sunday. Rather, Fox prefers to get
a lead, and then go to the ground game to protect it. In last year's
quarterfinal round, the Colts were at New England, a team with a decimated secondary. But
the Seahawks, faced with salary-cap issues, decided not to offer Lucas big money.But perhaps the
best part of the NFC Championship game is the backgrounds of the two quarterbacks. What
is it about this Carolina team? First, they have talent. The 2003 team that went
to the Super Bowl was 6-2 straight up, 7-1 against the spread as an underdog!
In 2004 they didn't make the playoffs, but the Panthers were 4-4 SU, 7-1 ATS
as a dog. Seattle RB Shaun Alexander, the league's leading rusher, wasn't a factor last
week after getting a concussion. Don't be fooled by following the money. The Panther QB
may not be a star, but he's been Tn Requin very good. For example, Seahawks' tackle Sean
Locklear will play in Sunday's NFC Championship Game despite being arrested over the weekend and
charged with misdemeanor assault. The Steelers lost at home, 41-27. A year ago, the money
came in on Pittsburgh in the AFC Championship game largely because they were a home
dog and 16-1. The image of Carolina in sports betting circles the last few seasons
is that they are a team to back as an underdog and one to fade
as a favorite. Seattle has a terrific home record this season, where they have yet
to lose (also going 7-2 ATS).The big story for the Seahawks is health. Just because
betting money rolls in on one side on key playoff games this time of year,
doesn't mean someone is in the know. After that 1-15 season in 2001, Fox came
in and rebuilt the defense, and got lucky with Jake Delhomme. This season? Carolina is
a perfect 4-0 SU/ATS as an underdog.If you like to find money-line dogs that have
a chance to win, Carolinahas certainly been magnificent under John Fox. Carolina could use its
ace on the defensive line, as the Panthers have played just about all season without
DE Kris Jenkins. Nice timing, kid!Carolina defensive end Julius Peppers missed his second day of
practice Thursday with a shoulder injury and is still listed as questionable. He is a
big part of this ball-control offense. The Panthers are 14-10 SU, 18-2 ATS as a
dog the last three seasons. So much for those who think you need a first-round
pedigree around which to build a team! Think about Jim Druckenmiller, Tim Couch, Akili Smith,
Cade McNown and Ryan Leaf as you watch the game on Sunday. He tied with
Carolina's Chris Gamble for the NFC lead with six interceptions last season. Second, Fox also
likes old fashioned, conservative football, which partly explains why his Panthers have been better as
a dog than a favorite. Neither happened as the Colts lost 20-3. Read all of
