MNF - come on, guys. YOU KNOW

[MadJack]

what the real side to bet is but not many are going to have the balls to lay it down.

many are going to be trying to bail out. the line should be 13. the betting is ridiculously lopsided on this one and the line remains at 10.

who has the balls? :shrug:

it might be worthy of a ML bet too.

what's it gonna be :SIB

 

[Emersonboozer]

Yeah why wouldnt the line move when every uncle Joe is on the Cowboys at -10 ? Same thing happened with Greenbay as the line didnt move with the money? So the book wants Dallas money?

I don't know Jack. Dallas -550 is pretty steep to me. I guess you might call it a safer route, but sheesh, that's a lot of cabbage for a small return.:mj07:

You may be right Jack. ML on Dallas best bet. :mj07:

[Emersonboozer]

Man risking 550 or whatever to get back 100 is not part of my gambling stratedgy. Is Dallas a much better team? Yes but stranger things have happened. No play for me but best of luck to all who decide to make a play.

Mon 10/8	435	Dallas Cowboys	-10 -108	-520	OVER 45 -105	
05:30 PM	436	Buffalo Bills	+10 +100	+470	UNDER 45 -105

Yes Emerson, it was a joke, but Dallas will not lose this game. I wouldn't suggest the ML by any means, simply because that is a lot of juice for minimal winnings,

Frequent Question...why the line does not move

Frequent Question...why the line does not move

This may be one of those "nightmare scenarios" for the sportsbooks where both the public money and the "smart money" are on the same side. This leaves the books out on a limb. If they move the lines too much, they will get "picked apart" by the "smart guys" and middled. That is one huge reason why the line does not move to -13.

This is not some clever theory on my part, it was laid out by a (recent) sportsbook director at the Stardust. It makes sense to me. :SIB

 

[Emersonboozer]

Thats what I originally thought until I saw some of the responses. Buffalo at home? why not? My Pop loves the Cowboys tonight and he is Eddie Mush so you might be onto something.

 

[Glenn Quagmire]

Really like Buffalo myself. Took them yesterday at +10. FWIW, that line hasn't budged an inch at my book...

 

[el JB]

taking the OVER

taking the OVER

whatever happens in SIDES ....i'll better take the OVER and watch :142smilie

 

[bryanz]

MN seems to favor dogs & unders.....yr after yr...... if you bet the chalk and the over in the same MN gm , your odds are not very good..... If my #'s are right there have been 5 MN gms... 2 fav/3dogs....... 1 ov / 4 un...... we have hand 1 fav & ov gm .........( 3 dogs & un )gms......... 1 fav & un gm....... the high % bet on MN is either the dog or the under..... If you don't like the dog or the under pass.....

 

[RollTide72]

Just my two cents worth here, but for Buffalo to have a chance they need their defensive studs.. but no Paul Posluszny, Ko Simpson or Coy Wire. These guys are tough and physical and what the Bills need to match the bruising Dallas running game.

I just don't see how Barber has a field day running the ball and Owens catching multiple passes. I know it seems too obvious and you go the other way, but sometimes a spade is a spade. :shrug:

 

[Dizzayton]

Poslusky and Wire are not studs. They are a rookie and a backup converter safety/linebacker.

 

[Agent 0659]

Let's keep the racist comments to a minimum sir.

Thanks...:mj07:
