    What's going on with this Pats line for tonight?

    How are they at only -3 1H -110 and -.5 1Q -110

    Haven't looked at any news/injuries yet because I just opened it up but it's the 3rd preseason game so 1st teamers SHOULD play a least til late 2nd quarter and it's the Lions for crying out loud!

    Detroit beat them 1st half and quarter on Thanksgiving last year before it got ugly late

    I think the Pats have improved greatly on the D side of the ball...of course it's preseason...if this was week one I would hammer the Pats here...

    lions are no joke. very well-rounded with a lot of new and elite talent...while i think the line is a little short even for a preseason game- i think it should only be about 6 or so.

    we need the twelvejewelz guy to post the preseason info in brocks qb status thread again.

    Doubt Pats are going to have their starters for a long time, Pats are known to not do what teams traditionally do, while most NFL teams like to play starters for a lot of the game time in week 3 preseason, I wouldn't be surprised if Pats sit their starters early.. Bill's known to od that..

    I gotta put at least .5U on the 1st just out of principle I mean I'm no Brady/Pats fan but I give them due respect....can see easily 14-0 or 17-7 at least before player rotations.

    You obviously haven't watched the lions in the preseason thus far. Lions 1st half and game is the play

    Good point. But I have watched my beloved Bucs.... and they got destroyed by the Pats so I'm sorta leaning that way for that alone. I'll look it harder in an hour or so.

    Should be a fun game to watch. I don't think Brady will play next week, so expect him to force the ball to Ocho a lot early. He's still having trouble picking up the non-verbal audibles, because they are as subtle as a movement from Brady's eyes, so I think they're determined to get Ocho comfortable.

    Also, we might see Fat Albert for the first time. Rumors that he'll play 10 snaps or so, but of course only Belichick knows. If Haynesfork is unleashed for the first time, the Lions wont be able to run the ball. I think the opportunistic D will be able to force an early turnover on Stafford and set Brady up with great field position.

    Finally, Brady said he has to make quicker reads and get the ball to his receivers faster than he did last week. I don't expect the Lions D to be able to completely stop this offense, especially if KVB doesn't play.

    I like 1Q and 1H over, with a small lean on Pats 1Q and 1H

    Of course the outcome is meaningless....but as matchups go....would think NE could outscore the Lions by 1 so that's the reason for the interest in the line.

    I just tuned into the game score is 10-0 already looks like Brady is performing surgery on DET's defense. 1st quarter is just ending should be an interesting game.

    Damn I know its preseason.....But everyone was saying how great NE looked, so what is it now? NE playing bad, or Lions are the real deal?

    Stafford put on a show, and the Lions D really got after it in the 1st half

    Lions will be a great team to bet on this season IMO....They impressed the hell outta me against the Jets even though we beat em, and they hung close in lots of other games against good teams last season

    They are a nice darkhorse for a playoff spot IF Stafford stays healthy

    Notice the line was for 1st qrtr and 1H.....week 3 tends to see more first team play into the second so that is what I meant....only a week left so the teams need more synching like having Brady in now in 3rd . I would put Pats vs Det for a half every time....sure it lost this time but still a decent shot I thought.

    best is a sissy boi, but with primarely pass firsty offense, best might have a surprisingly good year(whoever runs there actually)

    Over 7.5 is free $$. Even if Stafford goes down again, Shawn Hill is a good backup. He saved my ass last year on my over 5.5 bet on the Lions.

    Lions really came to play tonight. They've been impressive all preseason.
