Spread Update

[Nate Dogg]

The spread opened on most books at Cowboys -1.5 or -1. It has already moved to Panthers -1 or -1.5 on most books. This is a pretty massive line movement with the game still 48 hours away. I expect it to close at least Carolina -2 or maybe even -2.5/3. Even the betting public isn't stupid enough to bite the Romo hook versus Cam and our D!!!

More like, the game is already fixed for the Cowboys and they wanted to bait the public into pouring money in on the panthers side.

If we lose it won't be because of any conspiracies. We are the superior team and this is the perfect opportunity to show America how the Panthers do business.

Ha ha I called it.

In my experience, this isn't generally a good thing. When the public starts to bet heavily on one side to move the line, it typically isn't good for the team being heavily bet on (e.g. Carolina). Vegas odds makers set lines for a reason and ALWAYS know more than the public/consensus...so Vegas probably really likes the fact that the majority of the public (about 64% in favor of Carolina) is now putting their money on Carolina.

Betting lines have zero affect on the outcome of football games.  We have proven these conspiracies bogus simply by going 10-0 up to this point.  The better football teams win more football games its as simple as that.

The object of the line is to get a 50/50 split.......

with 64% of money on Carolina Vegas will move the line to 

promote action on Dallas and get closer to 50/50......period.

Isn't it strange that when Ron said in an interview that 'Vegas must know something the rest don't', the odds changed?  Makes you suspect something.  Does me anyway.  Panthers better watch penalties and score big.  Hard to fight the NFL, Vegas, Refs, and the cudboys.
