The feisty canucks from Covers are focusing on so many aspects of the game tonight they’ve been googly-eyed since mini-camp began in early August. Plus they have all of that catatonic CFL action to pay attention to as well(Geaux Argonauts!). But today, there’s only one game on their docket that all the books are looking at—and one number in tonight’s Oakland Raiders and New England Patriots game, which is the number 51. 51 is the “play price” for most bettors to pile on the under. As of yesterday, the number sat seductively at 50, waiting for a stiff breeze of Randy Moss’s buddha smoke to blow it over the top. The Covers crew says 51 is the number to watch. We shall oblige and get fat from their wisdom. As of early this morning, BetCris.com was one of the only sports books to have it above 50, with a 50 1/2 point total set for the game.
