What will be your favorite NFL teams regular season record?
I'm looking for realistic numbers here with reasons to back it up. The best answer will have an accurate record + or -, and good reasons for the wins and losses. What teams will beat you?
I see the 49ers going 11-5 this season.
I only see them losing to Seattle once,
To Pittsburgh, Giants, Minnesota, and Cincinnatti.

England 1966 World Cup Memorabilia?
My Grandma and Grandad own a money box saying England World Cup 1966, it is in the shape of a football and brown. They say it is very rare. I cannot find it anywhere on the internet to see how much it is worth. Does anybody have any ideas? It is not the Willie money box as I presume that would be in the shape of the lion? If anybody could help or anybody has any links that would be great!
I think the only way you will get a true answer is by having it valued by an expert who deals in memorabilia.
I personally would take it to somewhere like Sotherbys for a valuation as they will give you a true answer..

Nascar Betting Las Vegas - Reading and Understanding Money Lines
After learning about betting point spreads, Emily wanted to find out how to gamble on her favorite sport: Tennis. There are no point spreads in tennis and other individual sports like boxing and NASCAR because there is no meaningful way to measure how much a player wins or loses by. In these sports all that really matters is who wins and loses, and that's where money line wagering comes into play. Nascar Betting Las Vegas
What Is the Money Line?
Like the point spread, the money line is used to equal out the attractiveness of the favorite and the underdog for the typical bettor.
Money line results are decided by an event's straight-up winner, without regard to any point spread, since there is no point spread. Oddsmakers set the money line so that more money must be risked on the favorite (the expected winner) and less money on the underdog in an effort to balance the willingness of bettors to back the respective sides of a contest.
For example, Emily's favorite tennis player Serena Williams wins a majority of her matches. The money line between Serena and her opponent, let's say the 102nd-ranked player in the world, would not be even for this very reason. Sportsbooks would make bettors wager significantly more money on Serena than her opponent because of the disproportionate likelihood of Serena winning the match.
How to Read the Money Line
In the case of Serena Williams versus an overmatched opponent, a reasonable money line would require Serena bettors to risk $400 to win $100; while a $100 bet on her opponent would win $360.
Here's how the money line would be listed: Serena Williams -400 / #102 Ranked Opponent +360
Every $400 bet on Serena nets a $100 profit if she wins (plus the return of the $400 risked). If her opponent pulls off the upset, $100 bet on the underdog would profit $360 (plus the return of the $100 risked).
Keep in mind that sportsbooks only make a commission (also known as juice or vigorish) when the favorite loses. So if Serena were to lose that match, the book pays off $360 to underdog bettors while collecting $400 from favorite bettors, for a $40 profit. Nascar Betting Las Vegas
If Serena wins as expected, favorite bettors collect $100 while dog bettors lose $100 - resulting in zero profit for the bookmaker. The bigger the favorite, the less likely the underdog will win (and the less likely the book will collect their commission). To compensate for making a profit less often, the offshore sportsbook increases the spread between the favorite's lay price and the underdog's payoff, making their commission bigger when the longshot underdog does win.
When the Bulls were rolling with Michael Jordan it wouldn't be unusual for a NBA 1st round playoff series to be priced: Bulls -1400 / Overmatched Opponent +900. In such cases the books would collect their commission only the rare times that the underdog won; but when they did that commission would be quite large.
When Is the Money Line Used?
Besides sports like NASCAR and golf, where the margin of victory doesn't really matter, the money line is also the standard way to bet MLB. If a point spread were used with baseball, the smallest amount a line could be moved would be a ½ run, which would be much more significant than a ½-point move in basketball or football. Using a point spread in baseball would not allow an evening of the action with the necessary precision, so a money line is used.
Money lines are offered on football and basketball too, both college and pro. The money line is another option in those sports for bettors who choose to focus upon picking winners without regard for the point spread. If Emily would have known about money lines sooner, she might have placed a money line bet on her favorite NFL team - the New England Patriots - to win Super Bowl XXXIX.
The Patriots were 7 ½-point favorites against the Philadelphia Eagles, but -265 to win the game on the money line. Emily could have wagered $265 to win $100 on the Patriots. The Pats won 24-21, failing to cover the spread, but winning on the money line. Now Emily knows there's choices other than point spread betting, and she'll be ready for next season. Hopefully, so will you. Nascar Betting Las Vegas

Bears Eagles
Bears Eagles
Why is it Seahawks vs. Bears and Eagles vs. Saints?
How did the NFL determine that the Seahawks should play the Bears as opposed to the Saints? Was it a possibility that the Eagles could have played the Bears instead?
The higher seed (best record or division winner) always plays the lowest seed remaining. So, no the Bears couldn't have drawn the Eagles. The Eagles were the #3 seed, Seattle #4 (because they won the West) and Dallas was #5. The Bears would have played NY (#6) had they won

7 Running Back Fundamentals for the Youth Football Player
A youth football running back must be a "jack-of-all-trades" to play the position completely. He must be able to run, receive, block, and have a high level of physical and mental toughness. A talented and hardworking running back can break a game wide open by finding the right hole or securely running the ball to "eat up the clock" and protect the lead.
In order to meet the needs of this challenging position, future running backs must practice every day through a variety of football skills & drills to develop the fundamentals in each area of the position, particularly those they are weakest in. They should constantly be looking for ways to improve their football skills and can even find free tips from football pros online at sites like Weplay.com. Let's look at some of the attributes an aspiring youth football running back should work on to improve their skills:
Position Training & Conditioning
- The physical attributes of a running back can vary somewhat. What good running backs do have in common is overpowering speed, a low center of gravity, total body strength, and exceptional balance. A strength training program is highly recommended for a running back in youth football.
- A running back needs quick reactions to locate holes in the defense and to exploit them. He must be able to change direction quickly while keeping his balance and protecting the ball.
- A youth football running back should learn how to break tackles. He must keep his legs moving, driving them into the ground with forward momentum. An effective running back will be able to throw off larger tacklers with his arms and shoulders through sheer strength and balance.
- A youth football running back must have good blocking skills. On passing plays, the running back must protect the quarterback. He is often the last line of protection and, if effective, can provide the quarterback with a couple of seconds to complete the pass. On plays with two running backs, he is called upon to block for his partner.
Mental Approach
- The running back in youth football should learn how to read defensive positions and understand the blocking schemes of his offensive lineman. This will prepare him to spot the openings quickly during the heat of the play.
- To be a quality running back, he must obtain mental toughness. He is hit hard and often throughout the game and must be able to shake it off. He must develop the ability to "never give up on the play" in order to get those extra inches that may result in a first down.
Receiving
- He must know how to catch a football. The running back is often the target of an outlet pass when there are no other options. He must learn how to catch, tuck the ball, and run.
Drills for the Youth Running Back
- Ball Protection Drill - This drill teaches youth running backs to run and protect the ball while maintaining balance. Have your running backs line up to receive a handoff. A running back carries the ball through a two-sided wall of defenders trying to strip the ball. As a running back, get down low, protect the ball and focus on four points of security. Each player then takes a turn.
- Running Back Handoff Drill - This running back drill teaches the technical aspects of receiving a handoff. The player should create a pocket with the arms, the inside one on top and the lower arm cradling the ball. Line up players in two lines about 10 yards apart and facing each other. The first player takes the football and hands off to the player opposite him. That player then hands off to the running back coming from the other direction and so on. Speed is not important; it is the technical aspects that are essential. As the players become more adept you can speed up the tempo.

Autographed Brett Favre
Autographed Brett Favre
How much is my autographed football worth?
I have an autograph football with the signatures of Brett Favre, Bart Starr, Troy Aikman, and Roger Staubech....I was curious if anyone could give me a rough estimate of what it could be worth.
Those are 4 good names to have on one ball! Multiple sigs are hard to price. Most people just price the individual sigs. Now going by a quick look on ebay(ebay is best reference I have right now), balls with the individual sigs that you have are going for these prices, starr, aikman, and favre go for around $150, and staubach goes for about $200. However keep in mind these balls come with a GAI certificate of authenticity. Ones without coa's from psa, jsa, tri-star, mounted memories, steiner, and gai usually go for far less. Basically you could a put conservative value of $650+ on it if you have a legit coa, if not go about half that say around $325. If you want to protect it's value I would send it PSA for grading and proof of authenticity, graded items and sigs that are guaranteed authentic will carry a better value. Keep in mind collectibles are only worth what someone else is willing to pay for them. Sorry for being long winded.
