SBD> The NFL odds for all 16 Week 1 games are already posted and one fact that seems clear is that oddsmakers are anticipating empty stadiums. The point spreads for most home teams are discounted, as sportsbooks subtract some or all of the home-field advantage that noisy stadiums otherwise provide.

did they give a reason why the reason for empty stadiums? Virus or kneeling or probably both?

Saying due to covid. First 8 rows of seats at the super dome will be unseated this season to protect players and make them feel comfortable about playing. I’m thinking this season most stadiums will have zero fans there. Just players playing in empty stadiums....

covid, the few people who stopped going to games because of kneeling were replaced with new fan’s immediately.

hfa looks to be anywhere from 1.5 to 2.5 points depending on the team. not sure it has that much to do with Covid though as hfa has been less and less important the past few years.
