Maybe it's not as easy as it looks.
Books remember "Black Sunday" (10/25/2009) when everybody - and the paper boy - bet the faves. So the spread on GB drops from -7 to -6.5 all across Sin City because everybody's got the Pack and 80% of the spread tickets? Doesn't work that way...that's RLM. But it happened last Monday, long forgotten, if even noticed by most joe bettors. Would smart money dump that much on warm-weather LAR on a Monday with all week to worry about covid and practice injuries, and weather? Doubt it. Books looking for the right number so they drop it a half-point to see what shakes out.
Everybody know the LAR situation with Goff/Wolford/Bortles...Wolford out, LAR are one snap away from having Blake Bottles under center, and Goff has pins in his throwing thumb?!?! Spread tickets been in the 80s and high-70s percentages all week, yet line stays at -6.5? Want to attract LAR bettors...why not up the spread to +7.5? GB bettors gotta be loving -6.5...are bookies saying "bring it on" looking for all their spread bets?
Do the books wanna take a bath on all the GB bucks? Smart money can't expect LAR to win SU, so they won't bomb the ML, but maybe they did bomb the spread last Monday, figuring they wouldn't get +7.5. The other option is that the pros and the joes are all on the GB spread. It happens...like on Black Sunday and many other Sundays since.

LOL jpot34...great description!
I apologize for stepping into Mr. Wright's thread...didn't want to create a thread. DEEPEST APOLOGIES, WrightThe Bright...I was reading "Beggar's Lane", as jpot34 so aptly describes it, and I got a bit caught up in the excitement.
You didn't ask, jpot, but I did the only thing (I could) given the facts...I teased GB down to PK with KC.
Cheers continued good fortune, Mr. Wright and all.
