      In addition, it's important to remember that point spreads are not based on the relative actual strengths of the teams involved, but rather the way those strengths are perceived by the betting public. The line would be based on how much action it would generate -- preferably the same amount in support of each team.

      Chicago -7 would not do that IMHO.

      If you're talking about the actual (theoretical) game result, well, carry on...
      You're probably right. Still, I have a better than .500 average picking against the LV line over the years. So it would probably play out like this: Indy by 5, but the Bears win by 20. It all really depends on Grossman, not on Manning.

      • Berz, I placed my bets as soon as I could. Just checked and they are still there.

            • Where are all the Bears fans? They scored a FG against the Jets. 3-0 in the 3rd.

              • Miami has fumbled the ball away once at the Minny 1, have fumbled the ball away at their own 3, and have a net yds rushing of -3 yds! Result: Miami is up 24-13 because Minny has continually turned the ball right back over to Miami!

                Jason Taylor had another monster game: 2 forced fumbles and an interception for a TD!

                • Bears win 10-0 to complete the sweep of NY. Another shutout for the D, another opponent held under 300 total yds.

                  And a game completed in under 3 hours!!!

                      • I heard on CBS that Donovan McNabb tore his right ACL. He was scrambling right towards the sideline, got bumped after he threw, took an awkward step. Hard to tell, in the clip I saw he was running away from the camera. Didn't seem like something that should have caused an injury (like if he got hit in the side of the knee).

                          • My lord... the Eagles lose McNabb again? I think they need to increase the budget for 'backup QB' with the amount of time McNabb goes down.

                            • At halftime, San Fran is up 20-0 on Seattle. Gore with 130 yards rushing already.
