No, it's not.
Snappy response, but an actual basis for your disagreement would be useful. Not that I doubt your omniscience . . . who am I kidding, I do doubt you know what you are talking about. As I do not memorize lines, my answer was from the information on Vegas Web sites. A number representing a current point spread, as that was the question I was answering, would also seem appropriate if you actually know a fact disagreeing with the fact I offered.
Try this site for Vegas odds/point spreads, and if you cannot read -3 as the visiting team by 3, try the ESPN scoreboard as ESPN simply says the line is "Denver by 3" (today only 2.5) or actually point to some other site and explain how the fact I provided is incorrect. It will actually give others the impression you know what you are talking about in a post.

Earlier in the week it was Pats that were favored. Sorry no links or really big, multi-syllable words to back it up

Denver by 3 strikes me as generous... isn't Denver's passing game pretty good? Isn't our current pass defense rating pretty bad? And if Denver puts up a good number of points does this defense have a good track record of holding teams scoreless while our offense puts up points to catch up?
I think the key for the Patriots is to get a lead and hold a lead - being down two TDs creates a different game that from what I've seen, this team is not well suited to thrive in.
But a team with a strong passing attack is NOT the team I'd want the Patriots to be facing right now.
The only silver lining is that the Defense seems to be getting energized by the lack of respect for them by the fans and the media - that's a good thing IMO!
Et tu, Patjew?
Yes, after reading my own link I probably should have focused on the "favorite" line rather than the -3. I will take Vegas over ESPN on lines. I blame Easterbrook.
But you have to admit, my fact sources are solid. My reading comprehension skills in this case are apparently sorely lacking.
That pic was for Rockthecasbah.
I don't doubt the original spread nor the OP, but thought on a quick read of the posts someone had asked for a current spread and the thread was active. Usually that sort of fact doesn't generate disagreement, so color me surprised.
My added explanation was only offered to educate the Web-browsing impaired before they add a post next time. Search engines - those things are crazy.
By the way, "multi-syllable" is a multisyllable word, so you are money on the post.
Same here.
Anyway, I don't get how the Pats are favored here.
