Early line observation
 
I noticed the Failcons went from 1.5 point favorites to 1 point last week and now they're just a pick. A number of things seem to be going well and objective 3d parties are picking up on that. Just a random observation I guess.

All I know is that Tannehill abused the Falcons first string defense on that opening drive Friday night... :confused:

I don't see how they can be favorites at all. Even if I wasn't a Saints fan, I'd pick the Saints. We have a returning core with upgrades. The Falcons have mostly JAGs.

I'd pic the Saints on any even game and make money this year.

I was baffled why the opening line was Atl -2.

Revenge, renaissance, and bet inducement.

Why bother to second guess any betting line? It's not a bellweather on true outcome probability.

If I were a betting man I'd put some money down this year.

Re: Early line observation
 
Yeah it would have been a good bet to take the Saints +1.5

I pick the Saints every week.

Did you see Mike Smith telling his crew on Total Access in a videoed team meeting to not back-off if anybody picks a fight with a team mate? He told them that's a "good" penalty. LOL. Yup, apparently that's their game plan this year -- punch someone on the opposite team. It'll be almost as sweet as winning. What a bunch of losers.

Well, to be fair to them, they really suck at football so this gives them something else to do.

I'm going to miss ol' Mike when he's gone. His expressions are priceless. Somebody get him some Tums.

Saints -1.5 now but who didn't see that coming?

Michigan_SF 08-29-2014 05:15 PM

Re: Early line observation
 
-2.5 at the end of pre-season football. And you know a bunch of failcon fans looked it up. Ha!

I don't care about point spreads. I care about wins & I hope we score plenty of points against the Falcons.

I hope not. I'm looking for a for a more convincing win.

Don't care, not a betting man.

Would love to see us win by 40 pts. Will take a win by 1.

I am somewhat of a betting man so I am interested in the point spread.

And I too would like to see us win by 40 pts.

And I too would take a win how ever else the score plays out.

Oh, I'd love that, but the Falcons have a good offense. I just know we always play each other tough
