What will the line be if IND plays NE in round 2?

Igetp2s · Jan 5, 2005

Anyone have an opinion on what the line might be. I am trying to calculate the value from some futures plays. Last year's line in the AFC Championship was NE -4. If they play will this year will it be higher, lower, or about the same.

For the Colts: Even better offense than last year, defense is a little better, plus I think the refs would be calling illegal contact very carefully after last year's game. Plus Pats secondary is decimated, not sure how well they will be by then.

For the Pats: Home teams in 2nd round have even bigger advantage than in championship game because they get the week before off.

I would think the line would be lower around -3, with the Colts on the ML about +150. Any opinions on this? Thanks.

@ NE?

-3?

That would be the absolute LOWEST it would be, IF that low.

Fishhead · Jan 5, 2005

Lets make it NE -3 -120 at least!

Depends on weather

Real cold

Pats -5

Temps in 40's, Pats -3

everyone and their mother would be on NE -3. It would have to be -4 or higher.

Also... What if Indy beats Denver by 30... I don't think -3 is too low

I believe it was NE -3 in the AFC title game last year, most of the public couldn't get enough of the Colts at +3. I would say -3 120 for this one.

denver will beat indy this week. then you will see new england -7.5 vs. denver. denver wins that game too.

Covers has the spread listed as 4 last year.

Also just to add, Pats got extremely beneficial officiating last year on several plays, and still only won by 7. In very bad conditions perfectly suited for them.

NE -4 minimum, They couldn't beat NE on a nice night in Sept, now we are talking cold in January.

Indy worst rush defense in the AFC except KC.

What will the line be if IND plays NE in round 2?
