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;
 
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

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...

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

Whatta you retahded ah somethin'?

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?
