jbycho 754 Posted October 29, 2024 The NFL is crazy. Pinnacle is -1 and they know know their shiit usually. I usually base some of my early bets in my book based off of what Pinnacle has. Or at least I factor it in. I may lay off the game but dang, only in the NFL can a 6-2 team be an underdog to a 2-6 team without major injuries happening.

The number is set to get people to bet equal money on both sides and the house takes their guaranteed rake. They set the line as a means to this end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been waiting on the week to put my money on them. But it's only a guessing game for me at this point. They have been so dysfunctional to this point. I've been playing a couple player props the last couple weeks on Hall and Oates. I mean, Hall and Garrett Wilson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did some in game betting on the Baylor Bears. Had a great week with my only loss being of course, the Jets. That team is a mess but for some stupid reason I keep expecting them to turn it on for once. That team has everything on the line. If they lose this week, they are calling it quits and packing up for the year. If not already. Rodgers can just retire at that point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

listen2me 23 1,873 Posted October 29, 2024 Not sure why Texans arw thought of as this elite team. Other than handling the Pats, theyve played many close games with mediocre to bad teams. Got the doors blown off once. They did beat thr Bills but thr Bills didnt get off the bus and almost came back. Now they are without Diggs and Collins. Dell hasnt looked like how he looked early last season. Jets are a mess but they have to win some games at some point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BeenHereBefore 1,520 Posted November 1, 2024 I could smell a set up and figured Jets would win but to be safe I live bet it and waited till the Jets got points. I live bet all the prime games and haven't lost one so far. 6 or more point spread difference usually works out in your favor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hawkeye21 2,399 Posted November 1, 2024 Another strange line for a game pays off again. The next one is tomorrow's game with Minnesota at Illinois. Seems odd that MN would be favored away against a ranked team. MN is the bet though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteWonder 2,735 Posted November 1, 2024 sadly Dalton Shultz couldn't keep his second foot in bounds late in the game and that cost me a nice parlay, but it was time to bet the Jets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looked like he only got 1 foot in. he got 1 foot in, then his shin on that leg hit in bounds before the knee ultimately touched out of bounds. His second foot landed in bounds after the knee was out of bounds. Initial call was incomplete, because of the knee being out before the second foot landed in, but the replay showed the shin fully touching endzone before the knee hit the chalk foot + shin = 2 feet = butt etc. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
