The MGM sportsbook in Las Vegas reported taking some bets "in the $200,000-$300,000 range" on the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday. The betting action remains very even, with the New England Patriots holding as 3-point favorites.
ViewFromVegas of Super Bowl LI (as of noon ET Friday):
Sorry if these updates are mostly repetitive, but New England still remains a 3-point favorite over Atlanta at nearly every Vegas sports book with Treasure Island the only book alone on an island (coincidentally) at Patriots -3.5 (+115), meaning the vig is -135 for those looking to take the Falcons +3.5.
The over/under also remains 59 at 12 of 13 Vegas books. However. the CG Technology books offer some news as they have moved to New England -3 (-105) with line shaded toward Atlanta +3 (-115). They've also dropped the over/under to 58.5 (both moves put them in line with the major offshore books).

I think under on Blount is the play, # is a little inflated because ATL run D hasn't been good . Under 60.5 in his last 5 with D Lewis playing more. ATL is a worse run defense than pretty much all of the teams NE played in those games, but the Pats also crushed all of those games too and that is usually how he gets his production.
Martellus Bennett is a Pats 1 I like over on. Been bothered by an ankle injury for months but the extra week rest could help him and 38.5 is a really low #. I'd imagine ATL makes some effort to not let Hogan/Edelman just shred them after what happened with Pitt.
Not sure about the Blount prop. I'm expecting to see a healthy dose of the Pats running game. Think Lewis and Blount could easily split about 150 yds.
Do definitely like the Bennett prop to go over. Not only should he be healthier, as you said, but Atlanta allowed 11 of the 18 TEs they faced to go for 38 yards or better this year. That's with 4 of those teams being teams who hardly use their tight ends.

I'd put $ 200 on no, I don't think she can possibly call Trump a racist during the halftime show
this is about the halftime show? I think this is some sort of gift
although with all the hate and idiocy going around, I suppose anything is possible
Las Vegas sportsbook operator CG Technology took a $1 million bet on the Atlanta Falcons +3 this afternoon, according to vice president of risk Jason Simbal.
Final Preparations.
