The sports books lost their asses this last weekend. Las Vegas sportsbooks suffer worst Sunday of NFL season https://www.reviewjournal.com/sports/sports-columns/todd-dewey/las-vegas-sportsbooks-suffer-worst-sunday-of-nfl-season-2240896/ The first Sunday of 2021 was the best NFL Sunday of the 2020 season for bettors. Favorites won 14 of 16 games as gamblers cashed in on countless money-line parlays and teasers and dealt Las Vegas sportsbooks a rare losing day. “It was the worst Sunday of the season,” Westgate sportsbook vice president Jay Kornegay said. “The general public had a heyday. They were cashing all day. The big culprits were parlays and money-line parlays, as every team that needed to win won (Sunday).” The Raiders handed the Westgate its worst result in the final afternoon game. Derek Carr fired a strike to Darren Waller for a go-ahead 2-point conversion with 24 seconds left to lift Las Vegas to a 32-31 comeback win at Denver. “The reason why the Raiders game was the worst result of the day was because it was the last game posted,” Kornegay said. “Everything was riding on that game, especially the money-line parlays. We needed the Broncos to hang on there.” Washington, which closed -6½ after the line opened Philadelphia -1, capped the big day for bettors by beating the Eagles 20-14 on Sunday night. “We’re already in the toilet,” Kornegay said before the game. “Washington will flush it. “The Raiders winning at the end was one of the loudest eruptions in the book,” Sunset Station sportsbook director Chuck Esposito said. Las Vegas (-3) was one of six favorites that won but didn’t cover. But the Raiders flew over the total (50½) for the fifth consecutive game and finished the season tied with Tennessee for the league’s best over-under record at 12-3-1. The day started well for the books, which won all three big decisions in the morning games on the Giants (+1½, 23-19 over the Cowboys), Lions (+3, 37-35 loss to the Vikings) and Bills, who closed as 3-point home underdogs to the Dolphins in a 56-26 blowout. “That game was nuts,” MGM Resorts director of trading Jeff Stoneback said. “We opened the Bills -3½ and closed the Dolphins -3½.” The game was a must win for Miami to make the playoffs. The biggest losers for the books were the Packers (-4½, 35-16 over the Bears) and the Saints (-6, 33-7 over the Panthers) in the afternoon. “We had a really good morning and a really, really bad afternoon,” Stoneback said. “We went O-fer on big decisions in the afternoon.” The only solid afternoon result for the books was the 49ers (+7) salvaging a backdoor cover against the Seahawks in a 26-23 loss.
I never expect a warm-weather team (Miami, Vegas) to go to a cold-weather stadium (Buff, Den) and win.
SATURDAY IND AT BUF - BUFF LAR AT SEA - SEA TB AT WAS - TB SUNDAY BAL AT TEN - BAL CHI AT NO - NO CLE AT PIT - PIT
Texans wish they could say the same thing! No first and second round picks this draft. That's going to be tough...T
I tuned into a couple minutes of one of the shows today and they mentioned the Texans are interviewing both head coach and GM's. Annnnnd, remember that Nick Casereo guy? Yea, apparently he's one of the GM interviews. lol
Maybe with Brian Flores doing well in Miami - although man did they get toasted by Bills with everything on the line! - perhaps the Curse of Bellicheck's Assistants is broken?!? T
Good catch. He picked MIN and l had DET. PLEASE NOTE Pilotocs uses nicknames instead of MIN or DET. I Just picked the wrong one. Pilotocs was 11-5 for week 17 and 158-97.
IND AT BUF - BUF - Old Man Rivers retires after this game?

I see no reason to not go all in on the home teams. Yes, that includes WFT. IND AT BUF - Billskis are super hot. LAR AT SEA - 'Hawks. The goats are still the walking wounded. TB AT WAS - WFT. Our defensive front will harass Brady all day. BAL AT TEN - Titans, but . . . this one worries me. CHI AT NO - Saints. This one should be a lock. CLE AT PIT - Stillers. The brownies aren't quite there . . . yet.
