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

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.

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 ;)

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).

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
