You can't just look at the over/under, you have to check the $ line on those bets as well. Sometimes taking the over will pay $13 for every $10 you put down, which means Vegas would pay you a little extra on the over bet, meaning they think it's more likely that the Skins will fall short of the 7.5 win mark.

Assuming it's an even money line, I'd take the over on that. And that's not being a biased Redskins fan. I mean look at how they performed last year once Ramsey took over, they seemed like an 8-8 type team at that point to me. And I gotta think they can only grow from there.
