Or just wait a week or two because this line is going up and will go up even more once the public starts coming in on it.

Perhaps at few shops that have a tendency to always be higher on favs(Bodog, SIA)........but I think -7 is a solid, solid number, as i stated earlier in this thread.

I still see extra vig -15 or -20 in most places for +7, I expect this to even out to a standard +7 -10, and in fact my reduced vig book (not a sponsor) has already gone from +6.5 -05 to +7 -05 from yesterday, and I expect other books to follow suit. I'm just glad I grabbed -6.5 -05 while I still could as I don't expect to see that number again.

Just a update of sorts. Pitt - 6 1/2 is fast disappearing already. If you like Pitt, grab the - 6 1/2 - 110 while you can. However if you like Cardinals, I see no reason to jump right now on the +7 at this time. Why ? The number is already available at many places and it's only been 1 day and We have 13 days left. There seems no reason to jump on the 7 if it's everywhere already. JMHO GL on the game.

Excellent point, your right

It appears obvious that -6.5's are not going to last long.

One will probably be able to get +7 at anytime if they have access to more then 5-6 shops.................thus allowing them a free shot at being patient and getting +7 even money or possibly even +7.5.

Almost every Book here in Vegas is at +7. If anyone hears of a Book that is offering + 7 1/2-110, please post ! Thanks

I read that the Atlantis in Reno had +7.5 at some point, but they may have moved back in with the rest. Pretty much everyone offshore is sitting at around +7 -110

Pit by 35

Why do we always have to have score predictions in these line discussions?

As a bookmaker and one thought Pitt was going to win by 35, would they be hanging them at -8 right now????

Agree

On a line of -6.5........a relatively better chance of going to -7 than -6.

Again, my belief is -7 over the next 13 days is going to prove to be a very solid number.


As a little money has been coming in on Arizona in the past 48 hours, I expect just the opposite over the coming few days.

The books here in Vegas are simply trying to steal some easy $$ as Stations Casinos have Cardinals + 185 ! You have to be nuts to grab the Cardinals who are sitting most everywhere at +7 -110 at this low return of + 185. Last year in the NFC Championship game the Giants were + 7 1/2 and + 300 here in Vegas. The books know that the novices are going to take the underdog and the ML in the super Bowl.

CRIS head linesmaker says.......

Make the Steelers -6.5 -110

Let's see how long this lasts.

Kinda surprising to me but I'm seeing a few - 6 1/2 - 110 here in Vegas tonite. Southpoint and The Hilton to name two. Both were - 7 last time I checked. I did not expect to see the - 6 1/2 again. I agree with fish that most likely the - 6 1/2 will bring out some Steeler $$ and the line will go back up to a solid -7.
