Our Free NFL Picks have been comically bad in the playoffs, but that's probably not why you're here anyway. You're probably here in the hopes that we've posted a new picture of some girl with big boobs.
But some of you might be here for our extensive coverage of 2012 Super Bowl XLVI (46) prop betting action, and anything gambling-related that has to do with Super Bowl XLVI for that matter, and that's what we're here to provide.
Here's a look at the early lines for the Conference Championship games, the last step before our coverage of those funny and silly and whacky and weird Super Bowl prop bets really heats up.
In the NFC Championship Game:
San Francisco 49ers - 2 1/2
New York Giants + 2 1/2
Over/Under 43 1/2
Our initial inclination is to lean toward the Giants to continue their hot streak on the road, and we seem destined for a Patriots/Giants rematch from 2007. We'll refrain from getting too deep into analysis of this line, considering how horribly we've been picking games in the playoffs, but we 43 1/2 seems a bit high for this game.
In the AFC Championship Game:
New England Patriots -7 1/2
Baltimore Ravens +7 1/2
Over/Under 50
The Patriots are clearly the favorite to win the 2012 Super Bowl XLV (46), but the Ravens are not to be counted out in this one (which is to say we'll be counting them out). The over/under seems about right where it is, and we would maybe lean under for this game as well.
It's very early, so there could be some line movement as the week goes on, but we thought we'd be sure to keep you abreast of this information in anticipation of the Super Bowl matchup, which will be set on Sunday.
