Jones is awful. Hawks by 2 scores.
The Giants are a better team than you guys are giving them credit for.
What would our record be if we played the Cowboys and Niners, and not the Lions and Panthers? We'd probably be 0-3 or 1-2 as well.
Line seems fair, especially if Barkley's back.
Seahawks are now favored by 1 at Caesar’s Sportsbook. That’s a 3-3.5 point move since the line opened.
Not that it really matters, I like being an underdog on the road in prime time games. Not that professionals need any extra motivation but it doesn’t hurt.
I like it if it makes some kind of sense. It should be offensive to anyone that is a Seahawk fan that the Giants were ever favored we are an 8-9/9-8 type team not horrible but in serious need of a total reset and cleanup of the entire organization. The Giants....need way more because that quarterback is the definition of average. And they straight suck.Seahawks are now favored by 1 at Caesar’s Sportsbook.

There’s nothing to take offense to unless you just want to be offended all the time. They’re making educated guesses on what the betting public will evenly bet on and they adjust their lines as bets come in. They don’t give a rat’s ass who wins the game or who is better, they’re judging the public.I like it if it makes some kind of sense.

The 2nd paragraph is correct but the 1st paragraph is completely and utterly wrong. I urge people to ignore that section. Betting points are NOT equal.Home Teams are usually awarded a 3 point cushion. So that would translate to 4.5 point favourites if we were playing them at Lumen.
Lines are all about setting up bets to be evenly distributed. It doesn't matter what fans think. Only what Vegas thinks the bettors think. It's probably a good line to get bets falling evenly on either side but we'll see where it shifts after injury reports on Friday.
