For the current people dying to figure out how we get to the conclusion, read my 2nd to last post.
You write down the opening lines. Then at halftime, you write down what the true 2H lines should be according to the opening lines. So tonight Chicago was +5.
Green bay is up 13-0 at half. So we must assume since chicago was predicted to lose by 5 points, that they will out score Green Bay by 8 points in the 2nd half. So we now know the TRUE 2H line should be Chicago -8.
The real lines came out and Green Bay was a -2 point favorite. So that's a 10 point swing from what the true line should be so you can make a play on Green Bay -2 because they were the favorite to begin the game and have been on pace to cover. Now you stick with the favorite in the 2H if there's a 10 point difference.
The same logic is used for the Over/Under numbers. Which tonight, the under hit in the 1H so now you stick with the under in the 2H because there's over a 10 point differential. Get it? Now relax LOL
