NFL Betting: Michael Vick’s Limp Leg Equals 2 1/2 Points

READ MORE: Atlanta Falcons, Buffalo Bills, Michael Vick, NFL Betting

So even though Michael Vick is no friend to fantasy football players, he apparently does have some impact on betting lines. The fleet-footed Ron Mexico’s hamstring injury held up the number on the Atlanta Falcons versus Buffalo Bills opening line, but the books were seemingly content with his “probable” status and posted Atlanta as 2 1/2 point road underdogs. The thought being, obviously, if Vick is gimpy, the Falcons deteriorate into mediocrity. And against a husky Buffalo defense with quick linebackers, Vick’s overall game is pretty much rendered obsolete. Plus, the Bills are at home, which means there will be fat guys with blue and red painted on their brawny chests. That’s always a distraction.
