I think he is confusing the LVH posted number on Wednesday with the opener.
LVH took a guess on the Newton situation and whiffed .

Yes I was referring to the LVH posted #.... what do you mean they whiffed? Why is CAR at -4 now from +1.5? I mean -3 is the most probable COVER from the people that took +1.5 anyway, so at -4 it should still be a strong bet do you agree?

LVH had to put up a number on the game for the contest when most had it off the board not knowing if Newton would play.
By saying they whiffed means they made a bad guess on the line.
At plus 1.5 it's almost a must play for the contest. At -4 it makes a big difference.

I think Carolina wins by 2 or 3 .......a lot of bettors are following these top LVH contest cappers & a lot of these players will take Carolina -4, which is a very bad line compared to the contest........

You have a point, but what's the most likely way that CAR +1.5 covers? Chances are very slim that they will lose by EXACTLY 1 point, or win by EXACTLY 1 or 2 points. The most likely possibility is a 3-point cover by CAR and I'm willing to take my chances on them winning by over that, as a matter of fact I think they DESTROY Cleveland at home! Points hardly matter anyway.

Expanding.... +1.5 is a pretty stupid line to begin with since Carolina pretty much must win the game in order for it to cash. None of those strong ass cappers thought, "Oh wow! +1.5! I better snap at that line immediately because i KNOW Carolina will lose by EXACTLY 1 POINT!!!"............. Anyway Carolina -4 to the motherfucking BANK.

^^^^^^


This......Carolina was -3 & won by 2.......this game has the exact result IMO, a 2 point win by Carolina.

Also, everyone saw how poor Manziel played last week & got shutout 0-30.......odds of it happening again?

Not good.......do not bet the Panthers -4, altho I really do think they win SU......also, at least 3 or 4 games a week fall inside the number, so be careful......of course I could be way off on this game.
