      The total should reflect Brady not playing as well and it doesnt. Brady is playing.

        Line is 7 because the Pats have had 2 hard tough games in a row, then they play the lions lol. Yes, normally that will work, BUT it's thanksgiving day on National television. The Pats won't over look the game for that simple reason, and Bill won't let them not come in focused. NE 10+

          Pat's defense, especially their secondary is one of the worst in the AFC ... Lions will throw their way in this game.

            Wrong plays win quite often just not as often as right plays.

            Eagles right play? lol

            So to you in the previous week,
            the right plays were the chiefs, titans, vikings, texans right.......if you say no then

            You don't need to watch any games or any stats.

              RotoWire Update:

              "Brady (foot/shoulder) is listed as active for Thursday's game against the Lions, the Patriots' official site reports. Brady and the Patriots haven't been stretching the field much lately, but things ran pretty crisply the past couple of weeks against tough opponents, in Pittsburgh and Indy, with Brady tossing five TDs and no picks in that span. In any case, it appears as though Brady’s “questionable” tag was precautionary and it’s safe to roll with him on Thanksgiving."

                  As a longtime lions fan i can tell you the lions are dead money today

                  It's either OVER the total or a no play

                  I'm still rooting for the lions to win straight but without stafford it's an easy choice to lay off the side

                    Nellyinctown - great call........

                    Logan Mankins makes that o-line. He is a beast, plays the {2-3 man Twist Games} as good as anybody in the league. He Makes the center and tackle around him look great. Sue will makes some plays and get a little pressure, just not over mankins. Mankins is a {Country style SUE}, with bad intentions. Dude is out for blood, and fresh!!! I cant wait to see this match-up......

                    Lions will only come close if they can get past this beast's run blocking and pass pro imo...

                    [103] NE PATRIOTS -6½-130 (B+½)

                    2T TEAS [103] NE PATRIOTS PK-110 (B+7) [108] NY JETS -2½-110 (B+7

                    Best of luck today everybody, and happy T-Day!!

                              Ok, I'm going to start by saying I'm a lions fan. (I know, its sad, but I was born here) Now let me say why I'm betting against them today. First of all, they are without Matthew Stafford. They play much better when he is running the show. Shaun Hill is an adequate replacement, but you must remember that he is playing with essentially a broken arm. Next, Jahvid Best will play, but if you watched their last game, you saw that he has turf toe in both of his big toes. As small of an injury as that sounds like, its quite painful and slows you down. The lions really need a win, but I feel like they are caught in between that point of clinging to a hope of change in detroit and giving up on their season. They won't have the same fire as they have had the past few weeks after coming off a defeat against another 2-7 team, Dallas. That takes care of the offense, but now lets look at the defense. They defensive line is pretty good, but where their defense breaks down is in the pass game. They give up yards way too easily, and if Brady plays (questionable at this point), I believe it will be a slaughtering. Now the Pats, they need a win here to keep from losing ground with the Jets. A couple weeks ago they were embarrassed on the road against Cleveland and look how they've played since then. I just don't see this game going well for the lions. I believe if they get down by more than a touchdown, this game could turn ugly fast.

                                  Congrats to those who took pats....I think saints and under is the next pick. I'm also leaning on bengals but might take Texas a&m instead

Happens every year and the forecast calls for the norm. There isn't a chance in hell that the Lions win this game. Brady has been on the injury report every week for the last 6 years, he will play. He might sit the 2nd half when the Pats are up 3 tds.

                                    And as far as Pats being a public play, no shit. Betting against the Lions on Thanksgiving has been a way of paying for the family dinner since the dawn of time.

                                              Just a little hint, though -- I wouldn't bet against this kind of RLM long-term. Pinny went to 6 right before kickoff, while the public was pounding the Pats at 7.5 @ square shops.

                                              This one didn't cash, but long term, you're better off riding this wave vs. ignoring it.

                                                  These so-called "sharps" never let me down......2-0 fading NOCOINCIDENCES today.

                                                    congrats...I had Under. Reggie Bush basically handed that game to the Cowboys. Oh well

                                                      When did I ever post the under for the DAL/NO game before kickoff?

                                                      Link?

                                                          I am too, herts. The Ea$y money doesn't stop this weekend. We're doing it next too. Then cool it.

                                                          SF and Oakland last week became Detroit this week

                                                          even a game like Giants/Eagles last week f'ed the bookies in the A

                                                          ... and it ain't stoppin anytime soon

                                                          ride wit me

                                                            Glad I picked against them. Even though it hurts my soul a little bit to see them blow leads like that all the time.
