Totally disagree with this anti-Bills fan negativity.

 

But at least you are here today.  Most of your ilk took off and are nowhere to be seen.

 

The double negative means you're talking about pro-Bills fan positivity....  My boy @Royale with Cheese had the sarcasm font enabled.

This is assuming Allen plays. If he's out, that number will drop by 4-5 points, at least. Vegas knows everything, so hopefully they already know what's up with Josh. If there was a big question mark about him playing, this game would most likely be off the board. 

Obviously they didnt know the Jets would win the last game.😂

No Rousseau 

 

As of now no Poyer or Milano 

 

Essentially Vegas sees this D in that situation as trash.  
 

They’re not wrong.  

Relative to what we were hoping for in Week 1, we're missing Poyer, Hyde, Tre, Milano, Oliver, and Groot.  That's half our starting defense and every one of those players is potentially a Pro Bowler.  This isn't the defense that any of us were expecting, and yes it's kind of trash if this is what we have to put out there.

I'm your boy like Blue?

 

If I died, would you sing "Dust in the Wind" at my funeral?

At -6 and dropping; will come down more before game time.

 

I'm surprised it's still this high.

Most sports books give people the ability to "cancel" their bet, before the game starts.  

 

Line dropping gradually, is money coming in on Vikes (people either hedging, like said above and/or truly think Minny is within a TD of Bills).  Any indication that Allen is surely out this week, and this line flips to Minny being favored.

Probably waiting for an official announcement if Allen plays or not.

Point spread. Sucks everyone in. They made huge dollars on that game.

Lot of bandwagoners hopping off. Good time to lay it with the Bills.  Buy low. Someone pointed out here before the Jets game Buffalo was a 9.5 point choice. Sharp shops don't have the game available.  Must be wating to be sure Allen isn't dinged. 7 is key . Doubt you'll see it or you won't be fast enough to get 7 before it's bought back to 7.5. Public underdogs aren't very wise investments without a team being superior...example Seattle at Arizona yesterday, books took a bath on that game.

The very nature of the nfl is a back and forth leauge

Where do you find the info on where the sharps are betting?

glad I got MIN +7.5 before the lines disappeared

Also, the Bills are still favorites to win the Super Bowl (+275) according to MGM. The Miami team everyone is so scared of is 9th in SB odds (+2200).

 

This week the Bills are 7 pt favs over the team that are 7th in SB odds, while Fish are 4 pt favs over the team that are 19th.

Time for me to put some money on the Dolphins and Bengals. No way am I laying money on +275 for Buffalo. Those odds suck. Not saying Buffalo won't win it just saying from a betting point of view those odds aren't good.

You use a lot of buzz words but do you know what you are talking about?

 

you say "Public underdogs are not a wise investment" then you cite Seattle who was an underdog vs Arizona and won the game outright

 

you have no proof the books took a bath. Ive said this again and again they do not bet on the games and do not like to expose themselves willingly. you would have to come with proof to say otherwise.

Agreed. I hate that I can't find old splits, but I remember seeing the splits look appetizing on sea/arz.

 

I wanna say on the spread sea had like 30% of tickets and 45% of the money. I'm def not a savvy vet but I've done a lot of homework the last year, enough to know I really liked that pick. Seemed like the sharps $$ was there, and def was on the same side as Vegas as it was under 50% whatever the number was

Down to 5.5

Buffalo plays very well at home. 41-7 over the Titans, 38-3 over the Steelers, 27-17 over the Packers. GB scored a meaningless TD midway thru the 4th to make the score look respectable. I am not surprised its 7.5

That’s what you took out of GB? The only reason they didn’t win that game is they ran out of time. Josh started to look bad and the defense looked like a busted damn

right I got 7.5 on Monday morning as soon as i hear about the Injury before it was off all the boards. now its back on at an in-between line of 5.5 which shows some worry but is not damning yet.

To be clear, it didn't come off "all the boards".  In fact, DK might have been one of the few (or only major sportsbook) that took it down for a little while. 

 

Many others kept it up (Fanduel, betmgm, Caesars, to name a few majors).  And the line has gradually dropped as $$$ continues to come in on Minny. 

 

McDermott presser is scheduled for noon tomorrow, will find out then if Josh is possibly going to play this week.  But the line movement to date is not indicative of him sitting, more bettors "guessing"/hedging (as you did).
