Perhaps the most influential factor online sportsbooks use when making the lines is how NFL Football bettors perceive NFL teams.
There are a number of items that influence public perception, including a team?s straight up record and scoring numbers, but the biggest factor in influencing public perception is what NFL bettors hear about that team on television and radio.
It?s important to remember that most sports bettors get their information from the likes of ESPN, and anything they hear on that station ? true or not ? is what they believe. If the networks and website of ESPN say that one team is better than another, then you can expect to see a ton of action come down as instructed.
Case in point, after Denver?s offensive struggles in their season opener against the Ravens, ESPN was all over Peyton Manning and basically (and literally) saying he done. Their website ran a story about how bad he was. On television, they discussed if this was the beginning of the end as well as he is ?washed? and ?physically done? among other jabs.
The online sportsbooks took notice, and listed Denver as a three-point underdog against a Kansas City team that Manning has beat by at least a touchdown in all six meetings since he arrived in Denver.
Why? Because the typical football bettor who gets their news from ESPN heard all week long about how bad Peyton Manning was. Those online sportsbooks cleaned up as Denver won that game outright.
While we do respect the opinion of some in the national media, as well as some on ESPN in particular, the true value of watching ESPN on a daily basis isn?t the information gained, but rather knowing how other sports bettors will be leaning during the upcoming weekend, and therefore knowing how the linesmakers will react.
It?s not a good idea to simply fade public perception 100% of the time, but jumping on a line that is a few points off simply because of what people see and hear on television is going to pay off in the long run.
