That much money on KC has me worried about an old-fashioned hosing so that Vegas can cover the misbalance.
I think it's still way too early and look for it to fluctuate around 4.5-6 for a few days.Like I said in an earlier post it's the last minute 4-5 point swing that makes me nervous which is what happened in '14.
Keep in mind the money % is a straight up bet so right now you have to lay $240 on KC to win $100 the side or spread is favoring Indy. [Reply]

I think he's going to be just a tick overmatched by Ford's speed especially with Ford making major strides in technique that will be able to punish Smith if he tries to cheat.
I like that interior line, don't get me wrong. And they play extremely well as a unit. But Jones and Bailey are just so physically imposing that they're pretty tough to handle straight up so I don't see the Ts getting a lot of help in this game. That's where the Chiefs will have to do their damage. And Mack is an efficient running between the tackles (better vision than I'd expected) but he's not an incredibly powerful guy there so if Jones, Nnadi and Bailey can muck that up in there, they can get him turning sideways and slow him up...I hope.

Both correct but also keep in mind that is the side or spread.However scores and odds has been as high as 6 and now back to 5 which indicates the Colts are now being bet. [Reply]

Reverse line movement sometimes happens.
But it’s down to -5 now. Was at -6 I believe. Books are hedging. [Reply]
