    Need help with this information
    OK, help me out with the information below. Talk to me like a 2nd grader. What does this information mean? How does this help you cap? Based on the information below, what is the sharp play?
    With the line moving from -7.5 to -9.0, how does the other information below help determine which side to bet? Thanks for any assistance.


    Titans (vs. Chiefs) open line -7.5 current -9.0

    Betting Trends
    Side Titans 69% Chiefs 31%
    Money Titans 28% Chiefs 72%
    Total Titans 70% Chiefs 30%

      Those betting statistics don't give out much information about whether or not sharp money is on a particular side. If the line had moved from -7 to -5, however, it would indicate that larger wagers (generally considered sharp action) were coming in on the Chiefs. If the line failed to move off of the 7, it would indicate the same at those percentages - at a lesser degree however. You are essentially looking for movement (or lack thereof) in the line that is not synchronous with the amount of wagers on a particular side.
