Additionally, the public is on cinci, but the line has not moved therefore indicating the the money is either even, or in favor of marshall.
Also im sure the linesmakers already took this into account, but:
Last Updated: 10/3/2008 6:21:06 PM
10/3 Cincinnati QB Tony Pike expected to miss 2-4 weeks with a wrist injury.
9/28 Cincinnati RB Andrew Johnson is Questionable with a head injury.
I would take Marshall at +3.5 if I were you, but I'm not wagering tonight. :toast:
