What's the deal with this Atlanta line?

Vegas pulled this crap last week with Atlanta 3 over the stinkin' Panthers. And they are doing it again tomorrow.
This Falcon team is 6-0-1 in its last 7 games. Besides Atlanta is a Dome team etc. And they have a great QB .

I know there seems to be a trend here of bet against a team who is favored on the road that won straight up the week before.But Atlanta was in that same position last week too when they played Carolina.

The line opens @4 and drops to 3 1/2. Who's jerking who around here????

Can someone talk me out of betting Atlanta ...please enlighten me as to what i am missing..LOL

I have been pondering the same thing all week. I am leaving the game alone and I took Vikes (against rationale) +3.5 in my pool.

It's just the screw-you game of the week I think. Almost every week there is one of these games, and usually it falls through on the team that looks like easy money. I can think of a few anyways that looked too good to be true and weren't...

Tennessee @ Dallas
New Orleans @ Detroit
Cleveland @ Pittsburgh
Buffalo @ Miami
Cleveland @ NY Jets
New England @ Chicago
Kansas City @ Seattle etc etc

Not even questioning why anymore...

Road favorites are getting destroyed this season. I believe they are 24-37 this season in the NFL. Atlanta is the overwhelming public play this week.

Minny has been tough at home, despite te poor start. ATL due for a let down. I like Minny +4, maybe ML. It will kill you over the long haul betting these kinds of overhwelming public faves on spreads that look to good to be true.

Just my thoughts. For all I know, ATL could win by 30.

" IT LOOKS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE"
