I'm seeing some late movement on some of today's NFL games. Here's a quick scan of the lines worth watching.
Philadelphia Eagles at St. Louis Rams (+5.5 to +4)Looks like the "Dream Team" isn't getting the public support everyone thought they would right off the bat. The Rams are no slouches but an oddsmaker told me a few weeks ago that he wouldn't be surprised if this line got bet up to Eagles -7.
Instead the spread is dropping with a few Rams +3.5s out there.
My lean: Buying a half point to get the Eagles at -3 sounds like a good play.
Carolina Panthers at Arizona Cardinals (-7 to -6.5)Only a half point move here but it's a big one because it's coming off that touchdown spread. A move off the key number makes me love the Cards even more. They're my and Covers Expert David Malinsky's survivor pool pick this week.
Lean: Load up on Arizona. I've got a feeling they're going to blow out the Panthers.
Dallas Cowboys at New York Jets (-4 to -6)I see this as an overreaction to the injuries in the Cowboys' secondary. I think this would be a bigger deal if Dallas were facing Tom Brady. Mark Sanchez doesn't have any DBs shaking in their cleats.
My lean: Already liked the Boys at +5 and I'll put another unit on them at +6.
