Patriots 7.5 Point Favorites????

[dolfanattic5]

To me this is insane. I’m not saying we’ll win, but 7.5 points is a lot. I shouldn’t worry about it, because the respect will be due if we win. I’m just pumped for the opportunity to take a stranglehold on the division.

3 games doesn't erase years. Relax. The only thing that matters is what happens on the field.

I’m glad Vegas isn’t disrupting the Matrix. This whole flying under the radar thing has been working out pretty well so far.

That's quite allright. We are not established yet. Lines are not the final result. I believe the Pats were favorite over the Lions today and the Vikes were over the Bills.

Well I wouldn't put us as favorites to win at New England, that's for sure. So whether its +4 or +7 does it matter? I'm glad we're 3-0, but I'm not sold that we're better than the Patriots or that we're going to end the year with a better record... but I'm encouraged. Wait at least half a season of consistent success before puffing out your chest that Miami is deserving of major respect.

Well the last 3 home games we've played them they've scored 102 point to our 48....so there's that.

We’ve been putrid up there of late.

i for one think that the Pats reign of terror is coming to an end....it happens to every great team we were once the kings of football but age and the law of averages catch up with everyone, the clock is ticking and i think we are poised to snatch their chains

Because of our team speed expect the grass to be about a foot tall and for them to run the sprinklers all night before the game

Next game, just one game, will make an entire nation do a 180 on how they view our team if we win. Casual chit chat with random NFL fans viewed us as completely irrelevant and a top 5 pick contender. It will shock the talking heads if we pull it off next week. It will probably be the real true evidential first step to turning the culture around. My biggest issue is still the play calling which I think is dire until we go to 2 minute style offense or we are down after the 2nd half. Hopefully Gase shows something hidden down his sleeve in terms of how he play calls from the start next week.

This will all get settled next Sunday.

Line is based on power ratings, which do not move quickly

Not many places have the number up but a few of the 7.5 openers dropped to 7

Westgate (formerly the Hilton) opened very high at -9.5 and dropped only to -9 before being taken off the board once the Patriot game began

I think they have field turf, so they may be screwed on that front

 

[DisturbedShifty]

The Pats could be 0-5 and would still be the favorite regardless of who they were playing. So long as Belchick and Brady are there they will be the favorites. Especially against at home.

Eh away to the Pats with a beat up D that has flaws on tape. I get it
