Just in case anybody hasn't notice, the line is dropping on the Superbowl. 6's still available with additional juice but 4.5 is now the norm. Reason IMHO. Freeney will not play or if he tries with a torn ligament in his ankle, he will either not be able to last and he will be a liability for the Colts both against the run and the pass.

The reason the line is dropping is because everyone is betting on the Saints ...plain and simple. Books are trying to get an even amount of money on both. That way they can't lose ....ie 1,000,000.00 on the Saints and 1,000,000.00 on the Colts means book wins 100,000.00 (Juice) risk free!

SHAKE IT BABY!
:shaking:

P.S. I'm betting Saints money line

They try to get even money on all the lines ... When I booked if I had 5,000.00 on one team and only 700.00 on the other I would call another book and bet 4,300.00 on the 700.00 team. Can't lose automatic 500.00! It's when you get greedy and not call off the bet ... hehehe which I've done lol

That's not the reason the line is dropping. Indianapolis is getting 57% of the beting and New Orleans 43%.

If you like a side, try and get the best line on the moving line, because once the game starts, this line movement doesn't matter.

Trying to middle a five will kill the player much quicker than the book

Freeney injury is looking awesome. The under is 57 everywhere here, now. Would like to see the juice on under 49.5 move even higher. Colts money line at +190 or will be the real winner

I would be semi-shocked if this game went to -4 or lower..............

I think we have seen the influx of SAINTS money and now we will begin to see larger amounts of money coming in on the favored COLTS.

Agree or disagree?


PS- Starting to believe that the COLTS are the right side here..........to much fire power on the COLTS offensive side of the ball and they are being led by a mastermind at QB with two weeks to prepare.

traditionally in NFL marquee games, people like the favored team and the over

in boxing, you see a lot of underdog money, but i think that's b/c you have ML -800, -900 and people can't fathom laying that much $$$

here, i think people like the saints - think cubs in MLB. IND is a pretty boring team from a pretty boring city. i'm sure if you ask people who they "want to win" you are going to hear NO 70% - 85% of the time.

i think IND is the better team, and i don't think the line should be moving down.

be sure to keep an eye on the weather.

-4-111 at the moment at Pinnacle. It's closer to 4 than 4.5.

I have no idea on the right side. I hear you on Manning and I agree, but the Saints and Brees are pretty damn dangerous too, especially if Freeney is out. I think it could be close and the points may be enough. I don't really see a big time blowout here.

Brees is going to choke in the SB, Colts are the play.

What If, and this is just an What If. Peyton Manning gets injured? Do you feel comfortable at all knowing Curtis Painter will be running the offense?

That is a mighty big what if. Look how durable he's been during his entire career.
