    TWO "Sharps vs. Public Bets for NFL Week 2

    What's a "Sharps vs. Public" Bet?

    When the public is betting one way, but the line is moving the other way. This likely represents tons of sharp money going against the public. As an extra bonus, the public money somewhat offsets the line move the sharps would typically generate, giving you rare line value while following the sharps.

    Jacksonville opened -4.5 over Arizona, and has had 64% of the bet place on them since, but the line has moved down to -3. The Sharps are betting Arizona, and so are we at +3.

    New Engalnd opened -6 over New York, and has had 63% of the bet place on them since, but the line has moved down to -3.5. The Sharps are betting the Jets, and so are we at +3.5 (no bet at +3).

    solid stuff RJ. That's why i follow this movement religiously. Just simply liked three plays more than Arizona. But that was a sweet outright, along with the Jets.....

    That Arizona line movement was REALLY severe to go 1.5 points in the wrong direction with so much public money on 'em. The sharps must have been hitting that one with ALL THEIR MIGHT. I was foolish not to hop on board despite sending emails to some of my buddies telling them to take Arizona.
