    Giants played Vikes in MN Week 16 last year and lost 49-17...That was without Bradford of course.

    Such a rough bet, want to take NYG and the points but man...scary

    I have to ask you why? Because you like the Giants, you are a fan of the team? If you like to win you should want to take the Vikes

    Vikes record for 3 games this season + 16 games last year... 16-3 ATS

    You want to take the Gmen.... okay

    Because no AP and Bradford can't continue his pace. And despite the craziness from their fans, no the Vikes aren't winning 12 or even 11 games this year. Losses will occur at some point.

    Also, Terrance Newman will get absolutely blown up by either Cruz OR OBJ, that mismatch is huge with either.

    The Vikes pass rush has to win the game for them, literally it's entirely on their shoulders.

    Points are points though, will play if I can get +5. Won't buy the hook to get it and likely won't play if +4.5.

    WNT looks good at the moment.

    Bradford never hits "big shots", he's like the dink and dunk world record holder. Passes over 10 yards keep this guy up at night.

    The over isn't a bad call though, Giants def is horrid, and Min DBs will get demolished by Cruz or OBJ, whomever is singled. You might have convinced me...

    Since now the line has dropped to 3.5 I guess your +5 is a dream that will not come true. I just feel a bit foolish for jumping on -4.5 last night... but not at all worried about it.

    Ha, yes, just saw. I think I'm going with the squarish over though, 42 is out there now, more tempting.

    There's legit one defensive starter in there and that's the safety. DRC is playing.

    Slight edge to Vikings but it's close to a 50/50 split.

    You are reading this incorrectly. Percentage of bets has nothing to do with $$ wagered.

    For 6 days the $$ drove the line up (generally associated with "sharp" money). And now in the late hours, the $$ is coming in for NYG and driving it down (generally associated with recreational players). Those are the facts.

    Does not mean you can read much into that... "sharps" go broke and pick losers just as much as the recreational players. You need to find other indicators to find winners on a statistical basis

    Wow you actually think the Giants are the better team. Okay no problem. I'm a new poster here I don't want to piss anybody off... but if the Vikings dominate will you admit they are far better? Please don't come back and blame the refs or something silly.

    BOL to you Underdog.

    I think he is saying it would have been a blowout for Giants if it wasn't for Vikings defense..because Giants blew out their last four opponents. They broke the scoreboards.

    HOW is half a point between 4.5 and 5 enough to keep you from NOT playing???

    That's flawed logic. Not everyone who bets late is a rec player. Lots of sharps, arbers, and betting syndicates wait for line movement in their favour before they pounce. Joe Q public making small wagers is not what drives major line movement.

    I'm partially right, and you are as well. The point I was trying to make (and you did not include with the quote) was that you cannot derive much of anything out of all of this. Trust me I have tried for decades. I finally learned it all means nothing and the numbers are provided to make the average player think they are smart and gaining an advantage. This industry DOES NOT expose anything that will give you an advantage.

    Hell nowadays you can find interviews with sportsbook managers that will tell you flat out where the sharp money is going... and I don't think they are lying at all. End of the day, it is of no advantage.

    who cares about sharp money unless you're strictly going to follow (and play) the sharp money 100% of the time. Otherwise, you'll drive yourself crazy trying to pick when to follow sharp money plays
