Friday: ESPN Reporting Bottom Bar On TV Opening Line New England VS Denver -7.5

[TheMoneyShot]

I was doing cardio on a machine at the gym... and I had to blink twice because it happened so fast. I could of swore it said -7.5

Please tell me I was seeing things. Did anyone else see this?

Per pinnacle Denver opened -6.5

espn has their own ranking system where they project team x to beat team y by z points. They did it for college football bowl games as well, their lines are way off.

It didn't say projected outcome or ranking system. It did say "current line" -5.5 and then "opening line" (I thought it said -7.5).

I just wanted to confirm this with someone else. I noticed nowhere in Vegas it opened up that high. I was wondering where ESPN got their information? Or was I blind? But it wasn't Power Ranking or Predicting Outcome. Because the Seattle Game was listed right before and it was right on. Seattle opened -3 and currently it was -3.5.

Wouldn't surprise me if it was a typo..... ESPN has graphical errors all the time.

ESPN is wrong on everything. It's their calling card. I haven't seen that number anywhere. Makes no sense to open up at 7.5

[TheMoneyShot]

Don't know who posted that line at ESPN. Where they got it from or what??? But if they wanted the Public on +7.5 they got exactly what they wanted.
