No. They usually use “momentum” or recency bias by the public to their advantage and bet the other side. 3 hours ago, BuffaloBaumer said: I have never bet on an NFL game but I think I have to for this one.

Just like Bengals +5 against SF that I took a few days ago. If I’m wrong then the Bills have won and it’s more enjoyable on this board. If I’m right then I’d be a few bucks happier and this board will be…highly entertaining. I took the Bengals at plus 5 and Denver plus 8. I got real lucky taking the Bucs and the 10 points vs the Bills in Thursday. This week I'm 3-0. So a great week for me. Kicking myself for not taking the Chargers. They blow it so much I just get timid. I took the Lions tonight in a bounce back game. I took it early and I'm giving away 8.5 points to the Raiders. The line went down to 7.5. Good luck everyone. 5 hours ago, Pine Barrens Mafia said: hope you lose That's fair. As a Bills fan I hope I lose too. As a better I hope I win. Worst case scenario is if the Bengals win by 1 or 2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comparatively to your other bets that is a lot for you. You seem pretty proud to say you "hammered" the bet though and honestly to me that's pretty gross being proud to bet against your team.

jethro_tull Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 I still cringe at each of their last two cincy games. I saw a blowout in the making until the stoppage in play from Damar's horrific injury. The playoff loss only made it worse. They did seem return to form against the 49ers too which made me think about what they could do against our current shell shocked defense. The Bills offense will need to be sharp because it may need to be a no punt outing for them to win it. Cincys offense looks so friggin simple though, hoping that McD in control can do a better job at stopping them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Often it's not easy to do. It really not a knock against how I am a Bills fan or a loyalty issue. It's more about analyzing the facts and trusting your process. I see this bet as being a very good bet. I think there's only a small difficult path for the Bills to win or Bengals not to cover. Nothing is a sure thing.

I offered him money last year just to post a picture of one of his bets against the Bills and he refused. Troll. I usually bet $25 to $50 dollars. No big deal. I lose more than I win, sometimes I get lucky. There are some people out there and probably on this board that bet a lot bigger. Everyone's budget and tolerance level is different. The betting amount doesn't equate to being more knowledgeable or more successful. I do try to weigh in the sharp money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not find it to be worth the money. It impacted my enjoyment of the game (which obviously sucked, but it just felt off). I saw the opening line this week and again, felt like it was easy money. But I decided against it. I understand what you're saying. At the same time nothing wrong with just putting the team you love off limits even if you think you can make some money.

Mango Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 12 hours ago, HIT BY SPIKES said: Given the typical 3 points the Home Team gets and the Bengals are on a 3 game winning streak — beat @Cardinals, Seahawks and @49’ers — and the Bills have stumbled to victories recently, it seems Vegas sees the Bills in a more positive light than many here. I tend to be an optimistic Bills fan however I don’t have a good feeling about Sunday Night’s game in Cincinnati. What do you think Vegas is seeing that perhaps we are overlooking? As of about 2 weeks ago, road teams actually had a winning record vs home teams. Unsure of how much that has shifted. But some sportsbooks have claimed that they are only giving home teams about -1.5 these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFunPolice Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Bengals are a tough matchup for us. the NFL is all about how teams match up. That's why Team A can blow out Team B one week then Team B wins the next week and Team A scores 10 points. For whatever reason, the Bengals players and schemes are tough for us to deal with. We match up well with the Dolphins, but the Bengals stifle us and seem to move the ball at will. Same with the Chiefs and Bengals. YET the Browns basically always beat the Bengals, and usually it's not close. Hopefully this Sunday we find the answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "you" in my statement wasn't directed specifically at you. It was more a universal statement. I should have clarified that. Sorry. I'm always eager to pull the trigger on what I see as advantageous bets. I feel like the Bills vs Bengals game is just that. Of course, I can be incorrect and it's solely my opinion.
