it's a bit random really. Wash was playing better...then a pretty even matchup, then a PRTD and Miami suddenly is covering. A late drive by Wash comes up short.
Chi has 2/goal at the 2 down 8 late in the game. If perhaps they run the ball instead of thinking Cutler can get the job done, then perhaps the Bears cover.
Cle playing the Jets close until QB goes down. Maybe the game goes differently.
Baltimore had outplayed Denver in the 2nd half and took the lead. A quick TAINT and Denver has the game in hand. A late drive by Balt to win is snuffed out
Pitt misses the PAT...
there are others.
some games were never really close (NYG+7, Cincy -3, Buff +3, KC pickem)....pretty much no amount of randomness had the other side winning there.
things just happen in games that are unpredictable. some weeks the public wins. some weeks they dont. as big cat says, if you make your own numbers that's what you have to rely on and just make sure you grab the best line you can.
