Also I'm expecting that Steelers/Browns line to move once Bell is officially playing.

An NFL running back isn’t going to move a point spread

I don't understand that line. And Garoppolo is undefeated as a starter


San Fran’s roster is not very good. Jimmys hype is pushing them much further than where their expectations should be. The line would be double digits without the Jimmy is the savior hype

Vikings on the other hand are stacked on both sides and at home after a NFC title run.

If anything there’s a lot of value on the favorite there

Falcons should put up a shite load of points on Eagles and win out right.

I forgot they drafted ridley, who is a beast, but was stuck with a shitty throwing qb. With sanu and jones getting doubles, he should thrive.

I think that horseshoe up Nick Foles arse falls out tonight. I expect him to look pretty bad but they could still pull out a low scoring game with defense. I’ll take the points

I just don't see how Eagles win, Falcons should put up an easy 28. They struggled to stop bradys WR. these guys are 10 times better.

Brady threw for 505 yards for christs sake

Some NFL betting numbers...

quote:

The point spread was invented in the early 1940s by math teacher-turned-bookmaker Charles McNeil. It is the great equalizer of the NFL. In fact, over the last 15 regular seasons, NFL favorites have gone 1,859-1,860 against the spread, with 111 pushes, according to odds database BetLabsSports.com. Also during that time frame, 1,890 games have gone over the total and 1,886 have stayed under the total, with 64 games landing squarely on the over/under.

I like Philly too - can't believe this game is almost a pick. The market is telling us that Atlanta is the clear cut better team which seems completely wrong.

No reason to believe Philly shouldn't pick up where they left off last season bc preseason struggles are typically irrelevant.
