Do you like your Falcons this week? I'm thinking about taking the points and Atlanta at home. That's one of the four underdogs I really like this week.

a team averaging 37 points a game is not the underdog.

According to who?
Not Las Vegas handicappers, that's for sure.

A team who is not favored to win, is in fact, an underdog.

not listening to handicappers is your first step towards getting more picks right.
they arent telling you what they think will happen. They are telling you what the majority of the public believes will happen.
Las Vegas is like 5% of what goes on in gambling across the united States. Theres billions more illegally going on.
they are neither the authority nor the indicator of what goes on,just the commercially acceptable choice.

And those other 95% use vegas point spreads to actually lay money on games unless they have their head up their ass.

Oh, don't understand point spreads? For gamblers, Carolina is favored by 3 points. What this means is that Atlanta is the underdog despite points scored, playing at home, etc. So if you were to bet on Atlanta, and they lost by 2, since they were a 3 pt underdog, you actually win the bet, because they covered the spread.
If you need more elaboration, please let me know or I can forward you some documentation on the matter.
