Cleveland Gladiators (+2x) over New Orleans Voodoo
This is another one of those lines that makes me scratch my head and go hmmm. I did a write up on the Gladiators last week. Columbus's Nagy had his best game of the season, but still couldn't overcome the Veteran Gladiator's offense.
Cleveland is still good, and their offense is consistent. Cleveland's Philyaw, always a consistent passer, has the league's highest pass rating for any starter. Their offense has generated nearly 58 points a game (in addition to defense and special teams scoring).
New Orleans is coming off its first win. Don't let the score of that game (76-55 New Orleans) fool you - Tampa Bay looked better on paper except for one statistic: its -6 Turnover differential in that game. New Orleans is still awful.
I make the fair line Cleveland -7. Playing them at +2.5 seems like a steal (which I like more than an ML of +110).
