Pats -15.5 vs. Chiefs Week 1

[GostkowSKI]

Was just scrolling around sportsbook.com and they have lines out already for Week 1 in the NFL. Needless to say 15.5 is the biggest spread that week, next closest is Chargers -10 vs. Panthers.

Pats -2.5 @ Colts 11/2
Pats -14 vs. Jets 11/13

and I will be putting money on each of those games.

Broncos +14? Given our history I'd put money on Denver.

These point spreads before training camp even starts are beyond pointless.

Last year they had the Pats/Jets Week 1 line pretty accurate from the start. When they came out in April last year I took the Pats -6 @ the Jets, and the final gameday line was Pats -6.5.

Barring injury the teams are now set. June 1 cuts aren't what they used to be and trades are few and far between. If the Chiefs have a strong pre-season I don't think you'll see that number change.

Point spreads are not power rankings. They reflect how people are betting on a game. The POINT is that those who disagree with the spread have an early opportunity to benefit from their insight/hunch.

I'd bet the Pats on all of these. I'd be reluctant to do the Broncos game in Denver, but at home...
