What the hell is going on this year?

[E VINCENT]

Oakland line moved from 10- 12.5 ...


you would think Oakland would have to cover right? I think this team quit though, so I'm not sure what to do.

[larry4498]

I agree. I don't know what to do with this game, I should lay off but I know I won't.

[TripleH]

You are sure right, this is a lot of friggin points!!! :beer2:
I must be crazy becuase I took -12 and SD. :yeah: The Chargers play so inconsistant you never can tell who will show up. I hope they do tonight.:gulp:

[FunonBeckett]

I took the Raiders ML for 0.25 units owell...........:prtytme:

[E VINCENT]

Took a couple of prop bets.


Line just dropped back to SD -12 I may play Oak small, but will look for the 2nd half lines.

Faves are running wild this year. It's incredible....and it's absolutely killing me. I don't play many faves, and when I do, I seem to manage to pick the wrong ones anyway, lol.

Normally if I take faves, I only play really small ones that should cover just by winning, or ones that look like they're favored by too much and the dog looks TOO good.

Hopefully it will even out at least a little bit over the last few weeks....cause I sure as hell ain't gonna just start taking every fave just cause they are covering at like 60% this year, lol

I play alot of dogs as well. In the past couple years I have had the best weeks when most are struggling. This year the faves have taken over.I've been getting:punch: for the last couple weeks-though I would like to think it will even out soon, I think I'm better off laying off until the playoffs. Sooner or later vegas is going to have to give some dogs more value-or maybe I should just take the best teams in the NFL every Goddamn week to cover LOL:bang:

[Stifler's Mom]

Some of the dogs have been the right call and are just taking bad beats the last few weeks.

I mean no way Chicago should have covered the spread today against GB....yet lo and behold, here comes a defensive TD in the last 2 minutes to push it from a 5 point lead to a 12 point lead and give em the cover.

The Aints march up and down the field on the Bucs, yet have 3 points to show for it because Brooks throws a ton of interceptions every time they are ready to score.

Last week 2 dogs of +3.5 points take a game into OT (that BOTH should have won outright in regulation anyway) and BOTH give up a TD in overtime to not even cover?

How often does THAT happen??

Normally it's people complaining about the FAVES getting backdoored when they are covering basically the whole game and the dog squeaks in a meaningless TD late in the game, not the other way around like it has been, lol

Nothing you can do about it, and I'm guessing it will start evening out....possibly as early as tomorrow night, with the wrong team being favored yet again....although I'm sure Seattle will find some stupid way to cover the line like Dallas did last time the Eagles played on MNF.

[DJTranks]

Doesnt this happen every year? I can remember the past 2 years fav's have been covering at an amazing pace in the NFL.

stif-

not trying to stir anything up as i know you were heavily involved in the fiasco last night, but how can these plays be the "right call" when they are losing? what ever happened to a loss is a loss and a win is a win. theres always backdoor covers for favs and dogs, but i ust dont understand your reasoning of the losing bet being the right call.
