Default what happened to the bills line

The bills were -2.5 yesterday. Today they are pick. Does anyone know what happened? I would think they are better than Cincy at home, but would like to know why the line dropped before betting them.

It's probably because of the Bills QB situation.

Default Can you be more specific

can you please be more specific about the bills qb situation? I am also going to be betting Buffalo here, if I can't come up with a good reason for them being pick against Cincy. I agreed with the -3 line; The bills have not been that bad of a team the last 3 games, have they? They just beat Baltimore and the Jets. Cincy is going to give them a struggle at home?

Trent Edwards injury gives J.P. Losman the start this weekend.

I'll take the bills Pick against Cincy. J.P. Losman will do fine. The Bills are a team, not just one player.

Many of us could throw for 300 yards against the Bengals. I like Buffalo as well but Bills seem to play best when a home dog, not a favorite.

I think some people will love the Bills here just because they are disgusted with the Bengals. They have screwed a lot of bettors this year. It can be hard to stomach all of that and still pull the trigger.

Take the Bengals.

The bills are the underdog now but only by 1 point. They briefly went to +1.5 at bookmaker, but bookmaker quickly changed their mind.

One way to play them is in a teaser, teasing across the 3 and 7 but I'd like to see them at +1.5 before I do this.

The bills last 3 games, lost to Dallas by 1, beat the Ravens at home by 6, beat the Jets away by 10, now a change of quarterback and they are going to lose to Cincy at home? I don't buy it. We are talking about two not so great team here, but one of them is better than the other. Take the Bills, especially as home dogs.

Since the line has just moved, it is possible to get a good deal on the money line or half time line (if it is out yet). Books often forget that all these lines should move together.

Default Looks like the CRIS group doesn't share lines

Bills are +1 at Diamond, and +1.5 at Bookmaker. What I want to do is tease buffalo 6 points completely through the 3 and 7. Unfortunately my funds are at Diamond and I do not want to pay them their fee to transfer to Bookmaker.

If you are taking Cincy, they are available at Pick at some places.

Although you know my opinion that Bills are the way to go here.
