    I've seen enough to stay away from Indy tonight.

    What have have you seen beside the spread going up and up? Im already in for Indy -3 as part of a parlay but I was thinking of doing a single bet but was curious to see your response as youve had a few correct in a row lately.

    around 90% of bettors are taking Indy, and yet the line movement has been minimal.

    It's expected to be in the 20s in Nashville tonight.

    Tennessee actually has a higher DVOA than Indy, despite the perception that Indy is much better.

    The fact that I didn't bet this early pretty much meant no play anyway.

    Two choices:

    A)Line stays put or even somehow drops, despite public being all over Indy.

    B)Line shoots up to 4.5 or whatever.

    Both cases would be a no play.

    Some arbitrage opps on the ML =D

    It was at -175 at bodog before, now it's up to -210.

    Now it's +175 for Titans. I'm sure other books would give you better odds?

    Bodog is giving the best odds on the Titans, because they're a square book (their clientele is mostly composed of squares).

    Bet on dogs


    Colts ML can be had at -176 at 5 Dimes.

    That one has to go down as an all time backdoor cover.

    Gamblers everywhere are flipping out.

    I took Titans +2.5 in both of my spread groups. Neither is for money, but pride is important.

    I didn't like getting shorted the half point, but I went with it anyway.

    I also bet Titans +4 at Bodog.

    I was away before gametime, and the spread actually went up.

    Sports Interaction had Titans +5 (-110).

    There were some good arbitrage opportunities available tonight.

    Im kinda worried about that Pats/Bears game now. I have the Pats covering -3.5 on all 3 my tickets. But then again they did beat the Titans a few years ago in the snow 59-0.

    Worst spreads of the year IMHO. Then add in there are about 7, 8 teams playing diferent QB'S this week, makes it more ugly. Im wondering why the Ravens are favored over the Saints though.

    ok, two things I like today.

    Best bet: Seattle +7 (at Bodog). One of my favorite picks of the year.
    secondary: Jets +4.5 (Sports Interaction). Line did fall on this one, so it's somewhat problematic.
