    Why is the spread 6 points?

    With all of those injuries, I'm a little surprised.


    I wonder if it's because of 36-14 last year?

    The problem is, that was an 8 point game with under 3 minutes remaining. Jacksonville gave us a ton of chances to tie that game up and we just couldn't do it.

    the handicappers are dislexic - they meant to give us the 6 points.

      Home team is worth 6, it's even.

        3 points for us being on the road...

        If we were at home it would be a pickem.

        On a neutral field they'd be favored by 3.

        Sounds about right to me.

          not that I care about such things because gambling is of course illegal where I live, but the line is likely moving to 5 1/2 and I've heard 90% of the early action was on Buffalo...

            Hasselbeck > Garrard
            Sea WRs > Jax WRs
            Sea D < Jax D
            Sea run game < Jax run game
            Sea Oline > Jax Oline now

            I'd say Jax is a little bit better than Seattle right now. Their offense didn't look good against the Titans though...

              Jacksonville has been a good team for a couple years now. The Bills played well last week. Not enough people are sold on Buffalo yet.

                  home team is ususally awarded 3 points for homefield advanatage so the spread is really 2 1/2 points. It makes sence seeing that its only been one game. If the Bills win this one the point spread for the raider game will probabley be 7.

                    Sea WRs are as bad as Jax WRs.

                    The problem is we're in hostile environment.

                    It will be a tougher game than Seattle for sure.

                      God I hope Trent doesn't get hurt.

                      If he goes down and Losman comes in for this game, it's 2007 all over again.

                        Lets see, we were a 1 point favorite last week.......that says it all!

                        They were only off by 24 points
