D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 (edited) I've seen the point spread move from NE-9 to -7.5 in spite of Bills injuries. I definetly think it favors the underdog. Edited December 28, 2013 by 75Bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Beard Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I've seen slippery conditions favor a short passing approach. The QB and the receiver know when the receiver will make his cut. The DB has to react and can't get traction. Experience, timing and accuracy favor the Pats. If it is very slippery, the run game doesn't work because you can't get traction to cut (CJ) and you can't get traction to move the pile (Fred). I don't know if the forecast calls for enough rain to make traction an issue. A light rain is no big deal. Heavy rain or snow can change everything.

devldog131 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 According to the local forecast I saw here in MA, the heaviest rain is supposed to start right around kickoff and the conditions for the game have been forecasted as "soaking wet."

Hey, isn't the spread supposed to move the other way when you announce your starting QB isn't playing hmmm.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibs Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Hey, isn't the spread supposed to move the other way when you announce your starting QB isn't playing hmmm.... It's all to do with the amount of money being placed. Moving the spread further in the Bills favour means that they need more people to bet on the Bills.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I am thinking it won't favor Thad and his propensity to fumble. Hope I am wrong. By the way, rain is the worst for the viewers. Thunder/lightning is really the only thing that causes delays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorkington Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Meh. It's not like Brady hasn't played in bad weather before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Meh. It's not like Brady hasn't played in bad weather before. Its not so much Brady who looked inept in the weather games he has had this year, it was his WRs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
