I might be wrong but I always thought the Vegas Oddsmakers base the line on analyzing statistics, history, etc. and then gamblers move the line accordingly if they start betting heavily on one side. I don't mean to say they sit there and look at every little thing but I would guess that the Dome thing favors the Packers. If the game was in Kansas City, I would guess it'd be an even spread. But again, I don't know a whole lot about the odd-making.

I'm not sure if this is true. I always thought that the three points for a home game thing was more like a rule of thumb than something that is done automatically.

well I have been betting for the past 2 years on games and it seems that all evenly matched teams it has functioned this way and they it is lopsided either way. As far as I know the UK bookies get their numbers from the US stats because not as many people bet on football here.

Like one time I had to call in because they didnt have a marker for some preseason games and they just took the spread from what the main us markets were using.

Ok so Rodgers had a great game against the awful Falcons secondary and he is a dome qb?

Prior to the Atlanta game:

106.4 passer rating in 10 starts, with 2,645 yds, 18 TDs and five INTs on 205-of-307 passing (66.8%)

Also add in the fact that those stats are from playing in domes on the road which is significantly more difficult than playing in a dome at home.

Ah, so you have experience with this. Thanks for the info. I'm not a gambler at all, but I always find it interesting to look at a game from that angle.

The Falcons aren't awful. They went 13-3 and only lost something like 3 games in the last two years at home, plus they had a BYE week to rest up and prepare.

The Packers made the Falcons look awful. I wonder if Rodgers throws 3 TD's and for 370 yards and we beat the Steelers by 20+ if you're gonna say the Steelers are awful as well.
