A week ago, the lookahead line on Sunday’s Giants at Redskins game was Redskins -3. Then the Giants beat the Bears and the Redskins saw backup quarterback Colt McCoy go down in a loss to the Eagles, and now the point spread has moved nearly a touchdown in the Giants’ direction.
There are some “sharps” in Las Vegas who are positing that this was too much of an overreaction to the fact Mark Sanchez will have a full week to prepare to be the Redskins’ starting quarterback. If you’re waiting to bet this game, keep an eye on the line and see if it does move back the Redskins’ way near kickoff.
