Dolphins@Cowboys: Line has moved 5 points??!!

Question

This line movement has got me baffled.Cowboys opened up as -3 and are at &#x2B;2 now in some books.What gives that a preseason game would move 5 points?I already placed 3 units on Cowboys at &#x2B;1 but am second guessing my pick

There&#x27;s a few threads out there already...just gotta search.&#xD;&#xA;3rd string for Cowboys expected to play entire game...while Dolphins STARTERS expected for 1st half.

Theres more than a few threads on it...&#xD;&#xA;Cowboys - 3rd string QB expected to play entire game...not many starters expected at all.&#xD;&#xA;Dolhpins - STARTERS expected for 1st half...&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Thus the line movement...and correctly so "On Paper"

Hey Kbrick, noticed you put quotes around on paper.

I read the other posts and I think people are being squares and just thinking Miami is a lock because it is going to be their starters vs. Dallas 3rd string QB. As you said "on paper", Cowboys should get whipped but things "on paper" don't usually pan out exactly as they should.

I was thinking Dallas would play motivated after their piss poor showings the previous weeks and I noticed a lot of love for the Dolphins. The boys are America's team and are usually a betting favorite. I think today is the opposite where people are lining up to bet against them. I am going to stick to my play but I freakin hate going against a 5 point spread movement

ilovekim,&#xD;&#xA;i am not bashing or trying to bring you down but stephen mcgee is absolute garbage. the game is entirely to fast for him and with the questions the cowboys have with the offensive line i do not see them scoring more than 10. and the touchdown might come defensively. Good luck with your wager in any case.

KBrick84 · Answer

&#xD;&#xA;I think your analyzing this line way too much.  My argument on being motivated is this...If the 1st stringers &amp; stars of the Cowboys couldn&#x27;t get motivated to some version of consistent offense...then why should the 3rd stringers against Miami&#x27;s starters?&#xD;&#xA;Youre gonna need a defensive TD, or Special Teams TD from Dallas to have a shot...cause I don&#x27;t think there&#x27;s anyway they put up 14pts from their offense...and it&#x27;s gonna take something in the 20&#x27;s to win.

wtf...i thought wade phillips said he would play his 1st string players for a good portion of time to get them ready for the regular season due to their sloppy play as of late...just put my bet in as well...

vicstix · Answer

The line moved almost solely based on Romo sitting out so you know it moved too much.....it's hard to say where the line ends up or the final score for that matter but I expect this game to be closer than what we all might think will happen. Teased it to be safe.
