line now up to -8 with Brees out

That's a big spread for an NFL game.  Vegas is thinking we're going to win fairly easily.

 

The Panthers started as three-point favorites, but the line has steadily increased this week as Brees’s chances of playing grew fainter. After the Saints on Friday officially announced that he was out, the point spread was bumped to Panthers -8 at most books.

The spread only changes based on what the betting public thinks will happen. I wouldn't put too much stock into it. It starts reasonable and then based on how many people bet one way or the other it moves. 

Clearly right now the betting public is putting money on Carolina to win to the point where it's getting to be -8,-9,-10 just to try and get more people to put money on the Saints.

    • Damn back to 10th. I only caught the last 5 minutes but some of those 3's were horrible lol. In that close of game you can't be launching those many hail mary's when you could be chipping away from the foul line. I guess no one wanted to get in the paint and didn't trust the refs to give them the calls maybe? Gonna watch the highlights to get a better idea of the flow of the game
    • I agree.  The Big 12 is a good conference, and he is the swinging dick in that conference.  If Bill Self retires, that sets Kansas back a bit, and Arizona moves even further ahead as the best team in that conference.  Arizona can crush west coast recruiting with USC / UCLA no longer being relevant for LA kids, and Gonzaga not being able to compete moneywise.   If Lloyd comes here, he will be second fiddle to Duke every single year in NIL and recruits.  Not to mention the entire SEC and Big East for kids who want to stay in those regions to play. This is why I keep saying go get Mark Few.  Has proven he can do more with less from an X / O perspective but can also recruit All American players and compete at a high level. He's a god at Gonzaga, but for $9M he'd make the move as that's 4x what he's making at Gonzaga, and makes him the highest paid coach in the country. 
    • Certainly not going to miss his constant whiffs on sacks and tackles.
