Value is numerical and requires handicapping to ascertain.

It's obvious you've watched some football overt the last two weeks, but throwing around terms like value is a bit bothersome, unless you've actually handicapped the games.

I understand the way value is used around here, often so subjective, but did you actually cap the game? Thinking and feeling are dangerous ways to handicap and only a very few select individuals can win over time with that type of betting.

Do you have at least a penciled in prediction?

Good Luck.

Obviously value is subjective, we don't all have the same opinion about every team or there would be no betting market.

Here's my breakdown of the game - much of it in the write-up. I think the Saints are overvalued in Vegas's power ranking - the season win total for this team was 8.5 before the season started even after their left tackle Armstead went out. Here are my power rankings.

I think Carolina is 2-3 points better than an average team and I think they are much better at home. I think the Saints are 2 points worse than an average team so I think Carolina is about 5 points better than New Orleans on a neutral, I give them about 3 to 3.5 points for home advantage, my line for the game is 8.5-9.
