Lets put this another way - If you wanted to get in early on a Pats SB woul you rather pay -110 and lay 4 points and get the benny of a backup plan or would you rather get paid +140 and have to lay zero points.

I'm going with the Jets +15.5 in a tease with GB +9.5 at Sportsbook.
I do like NE at -1.5 but I think the Jets are the play.

I see you Brasky, give us some pucks now and then brother!

He's just saying they are favs to get there and if they do it doesn't matter who they play they are laying more then 4. I think the AFC will be laying AT LEAST 3 no matter who makes it.

Also, Bender, I already miss him...
And in honor of our fallen comrade, I am heading out to the bar for Taco Tuesday and the Lake Show.

I don't think the Ravens or Jets would be favored over the Falcons or Packers.

Why?The Jets laid 6.5 to GB at home a few months ago and they got 1.5 at Chicago just a few weeks ago. This tells me on a neutral field Jets would be favored. Yes, they lost both gms. But, Jets would be going through Indy, NE (SB favs), and then through Balt/Pitt on their way to the SB. Tougher road. Balt went to Atl and got just 1 pt. They did host Balt and laid just 1 though. I would venture to say if Balt wins this weekend then hosts Jets they may not be favored. But if they go to NE and win they will.

I think you answered your own question.
What was the spread the last time the Jets played in Foxboro? 3? They lost that game too, now they're +9. Also, GB winning @PHI, @ATL, @CHI would be nothing to sneeze at.MarshallPlan
Footballguy
Spread was 4. Pats now are clear SB favorites after the run they have been on. Plus Pats have a week off and some rest. Line is now 8 to 8.5. We give the Pats 1 point for the week off that gets it to 5. We then give them 2 pts (imo) for recent form (crushing everyone). This line should be 7 I think. But, it's a point to point and a half too high. Jets were bigger dogs before the playoffs. We still have to keep in mind the AFC is -4 which is a very high number and tells us AFC is clearly better then the NFC.I think you answered your own question.
60% chance Pats reach SB and lay probably 7.
40% chance someone else goes. I know there's lots of possibilities but if the Pats are a 60% chance of laying a TD, I don't think the 40% chance moves this line 4-6 points.
Man In The Box
Footballguy
The line should be 7, even though it opened at 9, and hasn't budged at some books. OK.Your other made up percentages don't help your argument, either. Look, I think that if the Pats are the AFC representative in the SB, getting -4 now would be a good bet. If not, you'd be hoping for Seattle or possibly Chicago to come out of the NFC, or else you'll have yourself a bad line. Just one man's opinion.
MarshallPlan
Footballguy
I said the line should be 7 I think. That's my opinion. No made up percentages come on, Pats -145 at 5 dimes, -130 at Matchbook.

I had a dish for a while and ran into this problem often (live in Manitoba). Took a broom and extended the handle to about 20 feet long so I could just step out my door and clean it off.optionmaven

I'd guess it doesn't snow much in Memphis, hope you're taking advantage and playing around in the snow with the Jeepduke -6 2hWe just got 6" of snow down here in Memphis. Pretty much the more snow then we've gotten in the previous 3 years combined. My DirecTV is fine

With college FB over and with a few more weeks to the NFL season, tell me how it is you guys can bet on basketball? I don't mean that to be sarcasm, I just don't trust it. I don't watch any NBA except for the Celts and I do not watch any NCAA, but looking for a reason to get into it.

Don't bother, unless you have the time and really know what you're doing. I don't. At least not until we approach tourney time. Entertainment games sure, but the rest of it, nah. I love the break actually, haha...

IMO there is no tougher sport than the NBA.Work on CBB, it can be beat, look at smaller conferences and non-tv games
