I know the first number is the points you take off your score, but what's the second number? or just explain it the best you can.

admin answers:

It's the over-under total. For example, Vegas (which sets the lines) says that the total number of points that will be scored in today's Packers-Lions game is 47. You have to determine if the total points scored will be more than ("over") or less than ("under") Vegas' total. So if you put a dime on "over" and they score 50, you win.

Sandy asks…

Betting Lines for the NFL... Your Opinion.?

Please only reply if you know what you are talking about:

the game is Dallas at Seattle: Offer your picks for over/under and offer your opinion on the final score:

Seattle -3
or
Dallas +3

Over/Under: 46.5

Final Score:

Seattle: ??
Dallas: ??

admin answers:

I think the game will be an under with Seattle to come out on top. THey are great at home and have the playoff experience. The weather could also be a factor. Check that out.
Romo is having a nightmare of late, and the Seattle crowd will be LOUD.
Seattle 31
Dallas 10
By the way I am a Pats fan and we would kick both their butts.

John asks…

Historic NFL Betting Line Movements?

I am looking for data on the internet that would have the following information:

NFL 2003, week 12, steelers vs seahawks, opening line=steelers -4, ending line=steelers-5.5
[then the same information for all other games of week 12]
[then the same information for all other weeks of 2003]
[then the same information for all other years (mainly 2002-2005)]

Does anyone know where I could find data like this or if it even exists on the internet?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!

admin answers:

Not sure. Why not use an internet search engine to try and find this information?

Jenny asks…

NFL Preseason is here...and so are the betting lines!?

for me, Monday night is poker night, and with the return of the NFL, it's also sports-betting night.

Tonight's match up features the Cleavland Browns and the New York Giants. Game is in New York, and the Giants are a 1.5 to 2.5 point favorite.

What team's gonna bring me home the money?

admin answers:

Well, preseason is difficult to judge and I'm a Browns fan and alot of Browns are sitting tonight so I'd have to go with the Giants laying the chalk.
