I took Ravens -6.5 right when the line came out and now it's moved to -7.5. If I got my Ravens bet at -110 Should I make a bet on the Bronco's +7.5 at -125?

Is this considered value because if the Ravens win by 7 points both plays cash? Does it matter that the bronco's bet is at -125 juice?

No don't do it, you're paying way too much juice to make this profitable in the long run. If the Bronco's were +7.5 -110 then it'd be close.

No value in middles with one point in NFL spreads. Not worth it, chances are that you wont hit it and will lose in paying juice.

Agree, chances are you are not gonna hit both. 7 is a key number though

-2 +3 or -3 +4 or -2.5 +3.5 would be ok

6 out of 57 games so far this year have ended with a 7 point difference, 10.5%. Even without that stat, which isnt favorable by any means, youre asking too much to hit 7.
