    Harvard Leans: Week 1 lines released- PATS are the easy cover (-3.5)

    This play is a way early, and way too good to pass up.

    I see no reason MIA wins this game, and it's reasonable to believe they lose by DD. I was projecting (-8).

    -3.5 is generous.

    Who's starting for Miami at QB? Henne? Penny? Personally, I'd go with Thigpin, just throw him out there and let him go for it.

    But I agree, the longer the lockout goes, the more I like the Pats, who should be returning basically everyone from HC to PK.

    Ya that looks like a good one, but MIA does usually play them close, but cant see it here.

    How can a team with no confirmed starting QB only be +3.5 dogs to the Patriots? The Dolphins are a mess and I expect them to be fighting for the basement spot along side with the Bills this upcoming season in the AFC North division.

    Miami is somehow a different team in September and playing division rival New England will bring out the best in them. The lock out will keep this number low and it seems too low, kind of fishy, maybe trap game?

    Its the first game of the year and were talking about a team coached by BB , no waaay the Pats come out flat or dont Mia seriously. The Pats still take Buffalo serious and the Bills havent beat us in like 8 freakin years. Pats come out like world beaters trust me. Pats are one of the smartest teams in the league for a reason and Div. games mean everything to us. -3.5 is very low , especially when you take into account that the Pats O will be better this year after realizing their much better when their balenced. I expect them to average around 28-31 pts per game this. Mia is an absolute mess , i wouldnt be surprised is Brandon Marshall is found in someones trunk.

    i would never place a bet without knowing who the starting qb is and question marks over all the offensie key positions such as RB , WR , etc


    lots of rumors goin on right now including sims-walker, several qb options, ronnie returning, and even rumors of other running backs even heard some deangelo williams talk.

    too much question marks. you never know. every year is a new year.

    it will depend on miami FA moves, if they go crazy and sign reggie bush and add another qb orton, hasselback, palmer, kolb or vy, i expect to stay @ 4-5, if they dont any significant moves, 7-9 due casual gamblers do love brady.

    I think the value is now, but you never know, remenber the browns game at cleveland last year
