Indy, Balt, Atl, and Philly could all be favored next week. I know Arizona could be favored but to me it looks like the road teams are all the better teams right now. Don't know if I have ever seen that before.

Atlanta should be a very small road favorite... with a combo of Ryan/Turner, I would give them a lean against the Cards.

The Phi vs Min matchup is the one that people should have the hardest time figuring out who should be the favorite.

Bal and Indy are favorites, yep.

I just grabbed Arizona +3. That line is off. No way Atlanta stays this big a favorite or a favorite at all for that matter. It will drop close to pick'em by gametime, IMO.

Why? Yes, this can be a close game but I don't think you "found value" by getting Arizona +3. What is the difference between Ari +3 and Min +3.. not much if anything? By that, you should also get Min +3?

Just wondering if this was just "a gut feeling" you have or one of those vibes you get from watching line movements.

My reasoning is A) Arizona is better then Atlanta on my numbers (which I live and die with) and they are at home and B) +3 -110 is a 55% wager by looking at the current market which is a HUGE indicator to me. I grabbed it. You wont see this number again, IMO.

Is this a great bet? No I wouldnt say that but looking at what is out there too bet next week this one sticks out right now to me. Not even sure how much i would like it on an average Sunday slate of games during the regular season.

Philaldephia on the other hand is a legit big time with a veteran QB and veteran team who have been there before. I can somewhat see the reasoning here (I think that line is about right).

I havent did my numbers yet (not till tomorrow morning) but this game has the most value, IMO. Better team and at home. Rookie QB on the road in a playoff game and having too cover the spread also. I dont like that at all.

I am very surpirsed by this line. I figured Arizona -3 give or take a half a point either way. Maybe Arizona isn't better then Atlanta but they are as good as them and and home field is 2.5/3 points. Way too much being made of Arizona's late season swoon AFTER they won the division and had little to nothing too play for. I will stick by earlier statement of Arizona will be favored by kickoff. Good luck CT!!!

That Atlanta/Arizona line is scary to say the least. I feel like putting my entire bankroll on Arizona.

I am not sure if I believe in traps. But if they do exist, this clearly is one.

I like Arizona. Nobody is giving them a chance after how they played to close out the season.

I love San Diego in this game. This will be my best bet of the weekend.
