STARDUST OPENING LINE MOVES 10-19

tuleythetout · Oct 19, 2003

Here are the NFL line moves from the Stardust on Sunday night (college moves are in the COLLEGE FOOTBALL FORUM):

TOOK MONEY OPEN BET TO OPPONENT
PATRIOTS -5 -5.5 Browns
BENGALS +2.5 +1.5 Seahawks
Giants +7 +6 VIKINGS
JAGUARS +5 +4 Titans
Rams-Steelers under 47.5 47

Home team in CAPS

Last week: The early bettors continued their trends of being very poor on sides – going 0-2 with the Giants and Lions to drop to an abyssmal 5-13 (27.8 percent) – but winning with totals, hitting the under in the Eagles-Giants game to improve to 6-0 on over/unders so far this season.

Thanks Tuley. I am all over fading three of those sides already.

BrokeN, am I right in assuming two of the sides you're consider are Vikings -6 (down from -7) and Titans -4 (actually -3.5 some places, down from -5)???
I'm not sure I would touch either of the other two games.

what am I missing here, I know there's something, Titans punk the Panthers and now you want to bet against them playing the Jags?

Oren:

This just shows that the early money at the Stardust came in on the Jags (it is not a prediction, per se). Some people will want to follow the money (and would be advised to bet early rather than wait) while others may see the line movement as something to fade, thus pretty much saying that the oddsmakers had the stronger number to begin with (and would be advised to wait until they get maximum value).

Personally, I hope more comes in on the Jags and drives it down to 3 so I can pound the Titans again.

Tuley, I am on the Browns and Seahawks. Mostly will not play against the Vikes anytime soon since I put a future on them before the season started for the NFC and SB. Esp. since it is known that the last undefeated team has a very good chance to make it to the party.

After futher looks I am off of the Titans in this one. Doesn't mean they are not the side, I just don't like it. Hey, I didn't like the Vikes LW but they came through.
