dear guys who can predict line movements_

I'm curious as to the chances of Houston/Atlanta moving off the 3
and Chicago/Det moving off 2.5

what do you see happening for both games?

[NajdorfDefense]

I doubt I can predict NFL line moves well, but DET was +3 so if it's +2.5 already due to Chi injury, doubt it goes back up with Det at home.

[CrushinFelt]

Why is bodog so lame about getting the points numebrs out there?

As for my early line plays:

+4 Ravens (bought a 1/2 point because 21-17 and 24-20 scores keep running through my head)
-3 Texans
-6 Steelers

I'm surprised at the Texans and Steelers lines. I was thinking closer to a Touchdown spread for the texans and almost double-digit for the Steelers. Not sure what I'm missing. Arizona is going to be lucky to get more than a couple field goals and a TD this week and the Atlanta offense won't be able to keep up with the Texans'. I also went ahead and made a parlay because I'm a junky.

Clearly the Brewers game tonight is highly correlated with thes other games...

I don't think we should be putting baseball parlays or NFL games from the other thread here. Perhaps the chatter thread, as P as suggested often?

No disrespect, just trying out the new system.

[Performify]

Parlay definitely should go in the Chatter thread (if anywhere).

[CrushinFelt]

The parlay was just a kicker to show that I actually bet on my super-insightful analysis. And the Ravens and Texans games are both "early". I also didn't read the title/OP properly, I thought it was just a thread about the early lines.

[Murphinator]

I'm all over Dal -13 and GB -2.5

[MyTurn2Raise]

GB -2.5???????????
