New England +3? Why? (1 Viewer)

Why would N.E. be +3 against an overrated Tennessee team? Seems way off to me...easy money??

I think the line is set there because Vegas assumes that the public perception will be that the Patriots will rest their starters.

Its because the Patriots really have nothing to play for and may rest their starters, although I have read nothing but "no comment" type statements from the Patriots on this matter. The Patriots usually are tight-lipped on a lot of things, so no clear comment makes everyone wonder.

Are the Iggles overrated? Titans beat 'em 31-13.Ask Peyton if they're overrated.
