From VI Prior to the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoffs, there were a handful of line moves on Sunday, which was reported to be sharp action. Make a note that even the professionals or so-called wise guys lose too.

Denver -6.5 to Denver -9.5 (WIN)
Miami +3.5 to Miami +1.5 (LOSS)
Minnesota +1 to Minnesota -1 (LOSS)
Buffalo +3 to Buffalo +1 (LOSS)
Seattle -8 to Seattle -9.5 (LOSS)
Arizona -3 to Arizona -5 (WIN)
N.Y. Giants +3 to N.Y. Giants +1.5(LOSS)

1. the line doesnt always move bc of sharp action.

2. the arizona move was bc palmer was announced as starter.

3. your main point however is correct. they dont always win.

i know 4 of their early plays were jets, miami, minny, buffalo. (0-4).

not sure about rest of day.

Denver -6.5 to Denver -9.5 (WIN)
Miami +3.5 to Miami +1.5 (LOSS) You really think "Wise Guys" hit this when it was between +2.5 and +1.5? Doubt it.
Minnesota +1 to Minnesota -1 (LOSS) Didn't this move when Johnson and Bush were ruled out?
Buffalo +3 to Buffalo +1 (LOSS)
Seattle -8 to Seattle -9.5 (LOSS)
Arizona -3 to Arizona -5 (WIN) As someone mentioned before...this moved when Palmer was announced as starter.
N.Y. Giants +3 to N.Y. Giants +1.5(LOSS) Public was on the Giants believe it or not.

I have no idea, just reporting what VegasInsider posted - I'm assuming they get their intel from books o/w who really knows what is pub (=square?) money and what is sharp money. I do think the sharps chased Miami down, I read that somewhere else they were in heavy late on that game - a game which could have gone their way real easily.

Wise guys hit Miami at +3.5 & +3 & the public followed & steamed or to +1, I then bieve the wise guys bet Gbay at -1 & middled it.

They did lose on Vikings & Bills........won on Denver & Cards......

I can't figure out if Seattle was a public play steamed up or wise guys.

The sharps reports are good for lining the bottom of your bird cage. I used to note the sides they liked and they were 50/50 at best.
