New England Patriots (14-4) vs. Seattle Seahawks (14-4)
Line Moves
Las Vegas Line Moves: The Westgate SuperBook in Las Vegas opened the Seahawks as 2½-point favorites over the Patriots. The line never went to 3 at the Westgate and quickly went down to pick ‘em. A total of 48½ was sent out at the SuperBook and its holding steady.
Offshore Line Moves: The Seahawks opened as two-point favorites at one major offshore sportsbook, Pinnacle. The early action came in early on Seattle and the books quickly pushed the Seahawks to -3. However, as New England continued its domination of Indianapolis, the line went down to pick ‘em. The total at Pinnacle opened at 48½ and was bet up to 49½. It’s still hovering in that neighborhood.
