Early Line - Houston At New England

[RI Patriots fan]

New England - 9.5


I'm actually surprised it was that much.

 

[TheBeers]

I'm seeing -4 to -5.5

gg Texans

I'm seeing -4 to -5.5

where? I'm hammering that

 

[supafly]

Yep, -10 on sportsbook.com for me too.

That's about 3 or 4 points higher than I would have initially guessed myself.

I think too many are looking at it through the lens of the Dec.10th game personally.

I think he means that's what he is seeing it at himself.

 

[TinhWoodhead]

Too friggin' high for a playoff game!

 

[RI Patriots fan]

I was thinking about -7.5

 

[Rob0729]

I think it is a little high, but I wouldn't be surprised if it goes up during the week. I am sure the Texans didn't give betters any confidence in them after tonight's performance.

[Brady_to_Moss]

i would never take -10 in the playoffs

That kind of a high line (no matter if justified) I hope doesn't jinx us.

 

[TheBostonStraggler]

A spread is not just about the ability of one team to win, it is also about how much action comes in on one particular team. NO DOUBT that a ton of money will come in on the Patriots. Anything less than a touchdown would invite almost all money to come in on the Patriots....

 

[supafly]

I hope doesn't jinx us.

You must be thinking of the last time we won an early December game by scoring into the 40's and blowing the other team out, only to host them again a month later in the divisional round after the first round bye.

I believe it happened in the 2010 season

a vegas sports line doesn't jinx you.....

 

[Betterthanmost]

We had the exact line against the Jets in the divisional round as well....

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

That's way too high. The Pats are the clear favorite, and they're capable of blowing alot of teams out the water but let's not lose sight that this is a battle of 2 12-4 teams.

 

[QB12]

Sure hope our guys are taking the Texans a lot more seriously than most of us are.

A jinx is when your QB is lighter than a duck.
