Patriots line -24.5 before the end of the season?

[RikkiDee]

somehow the line opened at -15 @ buffalo. Maybe the bye week+indy game made everyone forget how good NE is, or maybe vegas isn't ready to accept that any NFL team should be favored by more than 20 points.

Until we are in the 24~ point range I'm riding the pats all the way.

Every post since midnight has gotten more and more retarded. Some suggested an idea... We take a vote of people and banish them to a "I R TARD" thread in the SBF until their time is up. Then they can post other stuff. Habitual offenders will be subject to similar programs like "3 Strikes" or "Alabama Ice".

I propose the last 7 posters in the thread form the inaugural group. With furyshade taking only a small time for corroborating with teh enemies.

FWIW, this line was Phi @ NE -17 as one of Sportsbook's "Games of the Year" selections during last week (before today's games).

Obviously, it is going to open higher (regardless of what is happening with the terribly over-rated Donovan McNabb).

they are playing miami week 16.. there is no chance they will be 21+ pt favorites, assuming there will not be much to play for at that point in time...

You're kidding right? Shula runs his mouth and BB has obviously decided to prove a point about the best team ever. How perfect he gets to play the old man's team in week 16 and win by 50? I would bet that Brady sets the record for most TD's in a game that night.

I agree. The line should be -28

All I know is, I won't take less than 45 this week, I'd be hoping for +50.

(I'm just not going to watch the game, I think)

Does anyone think books might just stop taking action on the Pats till the playoffs?

They should just stop setting bad lines. All they need to do is set a line that will get them 50% action on both sides and they'll profit regardless. Even if it's not the most profitable line, I'm sure they'd do that before not accepting bets on them.
