The New York Times reported oddsmakers have had to put up points — a lot of them — to slow down Tom Brady, Randy Moss and the universe of gamblers who have made perhaps tens of millions of dollars betting on the Patriots to cover the spread. This Sunday, New England is a 21 ½-point favorite to defeat visiting Miami (1-13), which won its first game last week.

The times the Pats didn't cover were the times I didn't play them, so it really didn't effect me. I'm going back to the Pats this week. They will cover. Miami won last week, against a real pathetic Ravens team, who got even worse after the loss to the Ptas. So Miami's win last week really means nothing. Pats cover with ease this week. Put the house on it.
