Early Vegas Line NE @ CAR

[xtheronx]

opened CAR (-1)

now at CAR (-2.5)

IMO it will eventually drop to (PK)

it's definitely strange seeing us favored against NE

[CarolinaCoolin]

We are favored cause we our the home team. That's automatically a -3

[CPcavedweller]

I don't think it's strange. We have a solid defense that has proven itself to be more than capable. I think that's what the sharks are seeing. We may finally have a home field advantage for them to factor into the lines.

Yeah I understand that

I was saying it's weird that we're looked at as an equal team - we've been bad for so long haha

but this team is as good as NE and probably slightly better

this. so you can really subtract 3 from whatever the spread is and that is the actual. so, Pats are actually favored by 0.5 (if it were say a neutral site game)

[Happy Panther]

Wow nice

Vegas wasn't giving any love to the Panthers with the opening line at all, actually the opposite. Just trying to get a bunch of NE fans and betters to take the bet.

Not really equal. Vegas is telling us on a neutral field NE would be favored

[xtheronx]

Not really equal. Vegas is telling us on a neutral field NE would be favored

by 0.5 pts - that's pretty equal

[TheGreatestOfAllTimeCam]

I am feeling a 24-22 one way or another. Tough game to bet and make money on

[xtheronx]

Also - this is not true 100% of the time

It's true very often - but not always

[SamMills4Life]

NE's only quality win was again NO at home. They've played pretty crappy football during their away games, I think the line moves to -4.

[KendrickPanther]

I don't really care about vegas. They are only right when we have bad seasons.

Yeah I agree - I wouldn't bet on it

I never bet on my own team and I never bet against guys like Manning/Brady, etc
