Congrats to Matt Ryan on MVP! I've never found a reason not to like that guy.

Dang, Someone posted a pic of their mom and nobody even said anything. You all should be ashamed of yourselves.
That'll be a nice consolation award for him...

My mom's always been fond of wicked pissah winners like me, Teddy Ballgame and TB12.
She'd probably crack that bottle upside any loser Seahawks fan's melon who started talking smack.
Luv ya, Mom.

I was going to make a joke about your mom, BUT I just spent the week in the pacific northwest for work and I would pay at least $100 to see your mom pummel some bearded/straight brimmed hat/rolled up jeans wearing wimp with a wine bottle.

Save your money. She'd probably do it for a cup of Dunkin' Donuts Decaf. She's pushing 90. She stays away from stimulants. Skim milk. No sugar. Put her next to Hoppy for 20 minutes and for $1.50 your dreams could come true.

I think you're a little confused about what a betting line is

So if the Pats are -14 for two weeks "bettors are split over who will win"?

The Patriots opened as a 3 point favorite to win. Two weeks later the Patriots are still a 3 point favorite to win. This means that equal money is being bet on either side of the game. Otherwise the line would move. So betters are as convinced that the Falcons will win or at least cover the spread. At least that's how I think it works.

Equal money is being bet on the Pats winning by 3. If all bettors thought the Falcons and Pats had an equal chance to win the game (what you're suggesting), the line would be 0
The line hasn't moved because the bettors have simply consistently believed the Pats will win by 3 and no huge money has gone to either side enough to push the line one way or the other

What Cape is saying is the line clearly shows the Pats will win by double digits.
OP

No shti. That's what I just said.
Except you were suggesting that the stability of bets suggests the bettors think the Pats and Falcons have an equal chance of winning. That's not true. They think there is an "equal chance" that the Pats are going to win by three

The stability of the line shows that as many people are betting on the Falcons, as they are betting on the Pats. Those are the facts. How you want to interpret that is up to you. Cheers! ;mug;

Glad to see someone understands betting...
To many losers think the line means what Vegas thinks the final spread will be. That's the farthest from the truth. It's not about Vegas hitting the spread...
OP

Right. They are betting on the Falcons... WITH THREE POINTS.... not to win outright.

No, a balanced book is a myth.
Haven't checked lately, but as of a few days ago, the vast majority of money (~78%) was on the Pats.

I got 27-24 Pats.
I also predict the entire Patriots fan base will continue to show zero grace and respect through the entire thing.

The sharps are betting heavy on the pats. Big money. If you're looking at total bets without regard to dollar amount, it's pretty even.

I get it, you're a huge fan, totally invested in your team, and you wont stand for anyone suggesting that the Falcons might win. Got it, hope you'll be ok if the Pats don't win.

Your reverse jinxes never work.
And don't forget about the Pats winning next year too.
What D-line stud are the Pats going to grab with Clevelands's first round pick for Garapollo?

Looking to make a bet. Does anybody know the odds on Brady throwing touchdowns to 9 different players?

Total yardage of said throws will never be > 85. #rubberarm
You haven't been watching the Pats lately have you? He's the best QB at throwing the long ball now.
