Default Some strange (and maybe worrying) news on Pats-Dolphins

The line has dropped from -5.5 to -3.5. The money was 98% on the Pats.

Somethings up. I have looked around the internet, theres some rumour that Brady could be out with a head injury? But it wasnt listed on injury report. But on the injury report it did list 'finger'.

Now, i'm not saying we should all think Hoyer will play, but the bookies know something.

And another thing, Brady kinda had an off game against the Saints, now finger is on the report, is there a chance maybe like, Brady broke his finger in that game? I'm only saying this 'cos i remember the Broncos game in 08 when Cutler hit his finger on a helmet, and he stunk after that.

Sorry if i rambled, i just thought you guys would be intrested in this.

RUMOR: Brady questionable with head injury? Sounds like BS

Sorry i didn't see that, but still, maybe this finger is something to be concerned about?

Maybe you're reading too much into the line.

Well, it could be that the Pats got their arses handed to them on national TV and people who don't get to see either team so how badly the Pats played on Monday and figured that they would have a hangover into this Sunday's game.

The line is based on the public betting. The Pats have been on national TV what three times this year? They barely beat the Bills, they lose to the Colts, and they get killed by the Saints. The casual bettors out there might just have the perception that the Pats may not be as good as the Dolphins (or at least not good enough to cover the spread) and think this is a sure thing.

^But thats the thing mate, 98% of public were backing the Pats, then for some reason, the line dropped 2 points, and now more people are backing the dolphins.

The line should have got bigger, not smaller

More people are backing the Dolphins because of the way the Pats played Monday night, plain and simple. And why would the line get bigger if more people think the Dolphins are going to win. Generally, the more likely a team is going to win the game, the higher the point spread (or lower in this case).

the line dropped because there's a rush of Dolphin money being layed down....don't read any Kennedy assassination theories into it...it's just simple bookie math

The Patriots have to win this game and convincingly......

A loss in Miami and I can't feel good about our chances going forward.

This is a MUST win game IMHO.......
