View Full Version : Nfl 8/15
I believe this line opened at Denver -1 and I find it hard to swallow that its moved this much with the Bills playing at home. I don't see Vegas being off by 2.5 points, so I am going with the Bills at +3.5 for another nickle play. Everything points to Denver but that line movement really bothers me for a play on Denver. Also playing the first half total at 17 over for a nickle. GL to all with your picks.
1-0 and +5 units for the season.

Actually, the line opened as a "pick" at my book.
Not that it means anything in a preseason game, but if Buffalo can stay healthy, they may surprise some people this year.
They're my team and I know em pretty well, and it was just brutal to watch their offense last year. No deep threat with Price gone and Moulds being 70%, O line was basically a bunch of back ups, journeymen, and guys playing with injuries. The O line really didn't play together at all, and it showed big time. Bledsoe was being pressured on 3 step drops it was so bad. Anything that required more time than that was just a sack waiting to happen. If the front 4 didn't get to him, opponents just brought blitzes cause they had no deep threat, and no reason to keep 2 safeties back anyway.
They have the running game and the defense, if they can actually block for Bledsoe and give him a little time, they could be a contender....IMO anyway.
Anyhoo, GL with your pick. I played Buffalo also, but only for a small "for fun" bet cause they're my team.
Thanks mike and Stifler, gl to you also. I just see this game as a trap with the line movement. Why would it open at pk or even 1 with everyone on Denver b/c of this Shanahan preseason record deal. I am playing it for the simple fact of this line issue. Should not be playing it for a nickle but, with that kind of line movement, I feel good with the dog. Anyways, gl again and go Bills.:yeah:
Split this one. 2-1 and +4.5 units for the year.
I split, too. Let's get 'em tomorrow, ToP. :bbang:
