MNF showdown

Question

This is how im understanding this line. The public pounded this down to -3 atl. Manning and co looked great against a solid Pitt team at Denver. The same team that knocked Pitt out of the playoffs last year. I think that Manning and Denvers def had great games last week. Lots of people are saying this line is a gift to take Denver and Manning will rip apart the defense...... Im not saying either team is a solid play but if public is taking Denver i will be on Atl for a max play. Perfect spot play and situation. Manning is a great player and one of the best quarterbacks ever but people are overlooking Atlanta&#39;s good qb, rb, and receiving core. Atlanta should be able to score on denver in atlanta and their home opener. It will be a playoff atmosphere. Their gameplan will be to limit Peyton&#39;s time on the field. It is going to be close but atl will pull away with it late. Pitt couldnt do much because they had no run game and were limited. I expect denver to come out alittle flat...

not knocking your falcons play as i think they'll cover but i likely won't play them

few points where you are wrong/missed

-line was 3.5 and it went to 3. the line went to 3 within a few hours since line came out. public doesn't bet that early, usually gameday or later in the week to put their bets in with their bookies. but yes, the public is on the broncos.

-falcons have a new offense, up tempo, no huddle, let matt ryan pass

-falcons def is weak and they will be without their top corner grimes

-denver has a decent defense and a very good pash rush, also they have champ bailey

reason to back the falcons... matt ryan's record is insane at home... games don't usually end with a difference of 1 or 2, thus falcons -3 might be a solid play but ML might to better

the public is on broncos/over this game

sharps are on the over and also got broncos +3.5, but they might try to get falcons -2.5 for a middle or just buyback with falcons -3 and hope it lands there

something has to give... i'm thinking falcons/over

or vegas cleans up with falcons / under

or vegas giving free money with broncos/over?

Tough to travel from west to east coast and ATL will be running a no huddle similar to what peyton runs...and Dome will be rocking. I am up about 10 units for the weekend...so most likely taking ATL for a unit or two. Good Luck All...should be a Fun game to watch.
