So im guessing you want Seattle to score 20 points.  I cannot fathom this.  I could never bet against my own team, even if I knew Id win money.

I would love to shut them out... I just don't think it's going to happen.  I don't trust our line to get the necessary pressure or for Ron to move off CJ, especially since CJ's twitter outburst.  I think we will win by 3-7 points but it will be something like a 38-31 final score just like it has been against Eli, Brees, Rodgers, and Luck.

After Seattle beat the Vikings heard on espn opening line Panthers were 2 1/2 underdogs

It has been this way all year.  IMO -3 at home is just as bad as saying we are underdogs.  

We have the best record in football, we beat Seattle in Seattle and yet those running the books only list us as a 3 point favorite.

Our boys don't need any additional motivation but if they were looking for some.  This is good.

and if we win we will prob be home dogs in the NFC title game.

Meh...lines don't matter all that much.  Seattle has had more national exposure the past few years so people will be more inclined to bet on what they know rather than what they don't know.  A lot of people think the Panthers are a fluke, it's up to the team to disprove that notion.

Don't agree at all.  We are 15-1 within one TD of having a perfect season.  Seattle two weeks ago lost to the Rams at home.  We have beaten every critic and every doubter thinking this team is lucky.    The game isn't a popularity contest.  We have the better team and a better roster.   Minimum should be 7pt at home.  Minimum.

Hey I think we win by 7 myself.  I'm just telling you that they set the lines how they think they can make money.  The narrative right now (for the most part) is that Carolina is an inexperienced playoff team that had an easy division/schedule and the Seahawks are the experienced team and the defending NFC champions from the past 2 years (along with winning the superbowl one of those years).  People like to bet on teams that have proven they can win in the playoffs and like it or not Seattle has been that team the past 2 years.
