Mike Singletary was a great football player. Not all football players make good coaches.

I would say most don't. Similar to baseball. Think Ted Williams.

I see value in the line because people are panicking about no Vick in there. Otherwise the line would be pickem or Eagles -1.

Something else I always consider: all three California teams are overvalued by Vegas, on purpose, by their own admittance. They have built-in money week in and week out because of the proximity. (Since other sportsbooks around the world generally just fall in line with LVSC it doesn't matter where you're betting.)

Yes and no. The inflated lines are more likely Dallas and Green Bay on average. And obviously the over in any night game.

Nice call with the Titans boys. I personally thought that they were going to get blown out. But that's why I stopped betting on football light years ago.

Dallas definitely as well. Not sure if they shade GB or not, I will try to find out. Pretty much all overs are inflated, barring a matchup between two known defensive commodities.
