The line has already moved to -1. Evidently we are gaining some respect.

Just a ploy to shift the betting dynamic. Vegas could give a damn about respect.

Thinking bout it.

Should've bet yesterday.

Would have been perfect at +2.5 to throw into a two team teaser. Stay away at +1, even though I think we win. I bet on the Bucs game and the Panthers lost, didn't bet on the Saints game and we won. So being my superstitious self, no more bets on the Panthers this season ;)

It's not a ploy. You don't know how lines move evidently. Vegas wants the 'money' on both sides to be as close to 50-50 as possible, and they get to reap the rewards of the 'juice'.. so in essence, you are right, they don't care who wins. But, all of the bettors are putting their money down on the panthers... so they needed to move the line, so they generate more action for the giants. We are getting respect from the bettors (general public), after our win against the Saints, hence the line move in our favor.

Just put 10 dollars on the giants then they will not win, just a small price to pay for a team win.

I meant I didn't put a bet on the game at all, ha. I actually won two bets yesterday (threw the Ravens/Giants in a two team teaser in the early games and took the Seahawks/49ers in a two team teaser in the late games). In hindsight, wish I had put more on each than I actually did, but hey, a win is a win!

What's the best site for online sports betting? I'm ready to dive in but don't know where to start.

I use www.sportsbook.ag. They're very reputable (their lines show up on http://www.vegasinsider.com/nfl/odds/las-vegas/, last column). You have to submit a color copy of your ID and a utility/cable bill establishing proof of address as well (this is for withdrawals, you can make bets as soon as you sign up).
