Of course they do. A point spread is designed to even out the money on both sides. If Vegas thinks that people are going to bet heavy on one team, the spread will be set higher to offset that. Spreads are based on the betting public's perception of an event.

No doubt about it. That's why spreads change. That's why Vegas has been around so long, they are pretty smart.

I thought Dallas opened as 4 point favs and now it's down to 1.5? I could be wrong on the opening number, I can't get on any betting sites here at work.

I think the Portis thing is a major mover. It makes sense that the spread has moved since we have all of this injury news coming out.

I think Dallas wins this game. Campbell will have to throw for 250+ for us to win.

No you're not Joe. Sounds good to me!

Well good. This clearly is more comfortable playing the underdog role.

Clear as mud, Joe, Thanks! LOL... I'm very comforted now.
