Re: KC +1.5 at home vs SD??
When they played in SD, KC was +5.5 according to our DB. If the line was correct, then KC should be a half-point favorite in this game. Once again, that is assuming the line was accurate.
So, SD winning by 8 last game is not a big enough reason to think that they will cover 1.5 on the road. Also, I don't know what you mean when you say "that was the closest it ever was" (referring to the score). The final score is what matters. A 5.5 point fav covering by 2.5 is not a big deal. craig |

The point is, just because the line was 5.5 in SD doesn't mean it should be PK or better for KC now. I'm not saying KC is a bad pick, though - and wouldn't be surprised to be betting them myself soon. |

Re: KC +1.5 at home vs SD??
I didn't really make my point. My point was that SD winning by 8 at home when they were 5.5 favs, is not that big of a deal. The person I had responded to had pointed out that they won 28-20. I wanted to just point out that it wasn't a big deal. Divisional rivals at home tend to play a little closer than other games.
Also, if this game was played after the SD/MIA game (where SD lost at home) what would the spread be? Has much changed between the two teams when they met in OCT? craig |
