For starters I'm going to pick an oddsmaker to represent Vegas. For this season, let's stick with VegasInsider.com numbers, specifically their VI Consensus numbers.
I do like the way Covers and Bodog present their numbers -- they are just easier to read -- but I think in the spirit of "beating Vegas" having a published consensus number from 6 of the major oddsmaking Vegas hotels is about as good as I'm going to get. If anyone has a better approach feel free to comment or ping me.
Tonight I'll give the lines a good look and get back tomorrow with my first batch of picks. Here's a preview though -- that MIA@KC line is a laugher. Opened at -5.5 then moved to -4? Huh? Must be something that spooked everyone because MIA has turned into one of the biggest lillipops in the NFL schedule..
