[fly73]

Middle opportunity?

The public is betting the Vikings (72% ATS via VegasInsider)

sharps and public on Vikings

these "why did the line move" questions happen every week. If there's a big injury or a player missing the game (Cutler) you generally know. Otherwise it's just normal line movement that happens every week in every sport

 

[Typhoon]

I took Minn yesterday on the ML at +221

and there is no info on sport options for the drop, no steam plays

guess we will find out soon enuff

50/50 on the game

That 72% is bogus...LOL

I don't doubt that the public and the sharps are on it -- I think Vegas hung a bad line. But for the line to move this drastically on Sunday morn (it was still 7 in some places yesterday) is extreme. I wonder if some sharp money forced the books to beg for Miami money.

I could try to middle between 3.5 - 7, but doubt I will.

 

[Greenbacks]

It just went to 4 at my book

Figuring out consensus is not an exact science. A lot of places count "picks," not bet per se (Covers), which is useful, but less telling. But when I listen to Succi talk about ticket counts at Vegas sportsbooks, he will indicate that ticket counts for, say, New England, is 15-1 -- which tells you more than the 67% consensus number we see (aprox, it varies)) at other places.

Now that you mention it, I would l love a suggestion for a solid place to examine where public money is. I use Oddshark and Covers, but I think they tell less than they should.

4.5 on mine..

I been using the consensus from covers for 15 years...It`s the only 1 i use.

The best in my opinion.

Good luck!

VegasInsider's numbers, not mine. My bettors are 8-3 in favor of Minny so far.
