    Thanks Aston

    I guess like most people I'm pretty confident the patriots will win this game, and although the Dolphins are playing great recently since the changeover, we need to remember they've only beaten the Titans and the Texans. I think the bookmakers have set the line perfectly at -7.5 as this could really swing either way.. It's hard to say how good the Dolphins are as this is there first true competition since there winning streak began, personally I see better value in other games but if you fancy either team and feel you have an edge then go for it. I think the Pats will win by at least a TD if i had to predict it.

    Yes I agree withthe Pats winningI was think of buying 1.5 points and get the line to -6 (just to have insurance) or tease the game with the Falcons .I will sleep on it. cheers for the advice

    It's hard to judge how Miami will come out of the gates under this new head coach. He seems to have the team on track but like you said, they have only beaten the Titans and Texans so far. My lean is towards Patriots -7. Anything more than that I'm staying away. BOL

    I do not have a good answer for you. Vikings opened up at -2.5 and 61% are on MIN spread but the line starts favoring da Bears... something seems a little fishy here

    Maybe it's cause Peterson isn't playing?

    Peterson was a full participant at practice today and is listed as probable.

    The line is settling back to where it should be, my guess is it's because the Bears at home and coming off a BYE week. Which isn't much of an edge at all. I like these VIKES!

    I hear you. I never know how much stock to put in trends like this. I mean, other teams waltz into Soldier and beat the hell out of the Bears regularly. I liked the Bears at +2.5 or +3. I don't like when the line crosses zero though.

    I think if other teams can waltz in and beat the bears at home then you really shouldn't put too much thought into this, it would be fair enough if it was a re-occurring pattern that a lot of teams struggled against them at soldier field.

    As long as the Vikings play like the Vikings and the Bears play like the Bears then the Vikings have got this.

    Am late but Broncos 1H performance was frustrating, good in 2nd but left too much work to be done, I have to admit though Andrew Luck had a great game, he took a pounding but remained composed and made some great throws which ultimately made the difference.

    The Bears vs Chargers if I'm genuinely honest with you the chargers are just awful lol from the start of the season they was probably the most overrated team with Rivers being the main edge people used to bet on them week in week out.. But I left this game as the Bears are also awful. Don't even remember the handicap but it was risky either way lol..

    Nice little winner! Had my largest bet of the season so far on that double and the patriots just about scraped the win for me. I do prefer single bets but I really didn't see much value in any of the lines so I had no choice.. I should have 1 or 2 single bets for next week to hopefully continue my winning streak

    My record stands at 16-4 (80%) ATS currently!

    Thanks John! Personally I don't see enough value in it, although I did take the pats moneyline in a double with the panthers this week as one of my unofficial bets so I do believe they get the job done here and should win by at least a touchdown.

    Sounds good. May pass on the game myself. Just like to hear your thoughts on a heavily bet game. Good discipline if passing. Best of luck.
