Here we go again.

This have nothing to do with respect or who Vegas thinks will win. Vegas make the most money when they get a 50-50 distribution on the bets, so the line is all about what they think will give that. 

I understand what betting lines are.

Players will still use this as disrespect.  Heck, it is proven that a huge percentage of NFL players have no clue about what betting lines really are.   They know they are road dogs.....that is all they will focus on

Proof:

Rivera on being 1-pt dog at Dallas: "To be honest, it's nothing we haven't seen before. .... It is a little disrespectful, I guess."

means Rivera is going to old school and point to the fact only 1 time in NFL history has a 10-0 team been a dog....

His 85 Bears vs Dallas.

Vegas is very very good at what they do.

By starting the line at Panthers (+2), Cowboy hater money is going to pour onto the panthers, thus pushing the line into the Panthers being favored (will probably be Panthers -1 or -2 by Wednesday).  That line movement, will then entice the "public" to put money on the Cowboys and Romo.  

Ultimately, Vegas will get close to even money on both sides, not give a damn who wins, and drink up all that delicious juice that they build those fancy casnios with.

Aaron Rodgers was 15-0 coming off of a loss.

The Panthers were winless under Ron Rivera after a bye.

Russell Wilson was once undefeated against the Panthers.

We had never beat the Titans in franchise history

This just seems to be one of those seasons.

    • I could be waaaaaaay off about Kon. I do fault myself into, to borrow a NFL phrase heavily "RAS" nerd on players, too much. There are PLENTY of athletic freak shows that are playing overseas(or Amazon delivery) cause they never figured out NBA ball. I can easily miss seeing the talent. Plus did he only have 2 dunks on the season??(is that for real??) I didn't watch over a few hours of duke, but not one point did I think "That Kon guy is a top 4 pick in the upcoming draft". IMO I still foresee Ball bringing the ball up, doing his weak isolation game and never even looking for Kon. That's his best trait according to everyone, shooting right? I do not see ball, bridges, miller or even williams making the extra pass to Kon for him to shoot a 3.  Then defense-wise, Im not ready to type the amount of questions I foresee in his ability for guarding NBA SGs or bench SFs for that matter. Not that NBA players care to defend, but still..... I just feel he's a bad fit for the current hornets, trades are taking place tho... Liam to me is a decent comp for Kon and he fell some, but was a 29 overall pick. Still around 13-21 was the good solid range for Liam and I thought the same for Kon. This is just a classic case of I need to see it. It add to this, Kon is like garlic. Ball is like sugar and Miller is like flour. Mix it together and chef Lee is not going to get me to eat that dish..... Honestly I don't know why Im this vocal about Kon. In past years I would be patience and not post and see what the kid has. The other side, insert classic white boy terms here- _____, ______, _______< etc >. Hornets do desperately need them. His crafty back door cuts, his willingness to stay a extra 2 hours to refine lees plays, keep playing with bruised limbs. I heard from many reports he's mentally tough and hornets by all gods need that. God they are such pussys.  I hope Im wrong and if so, I will give Kon his just props.
