— -- Every Friday while the NFL is in action, ESPN Chalk will ask some of Las Vegas' top oddsmakers where the action has gone during the week. Here is the latest installment, covering the conference championships.

1. Which game(s) have had the biggest line movement?

Nick Bogdanovich, director of trading, William Hill: Biggest line movement has been in the New England-Denver game. It opened at New England -1. The line moved up to 2.5, and from there it bounced up to -3, then -3.5, and now back to -3 where it has been steady.

Jay Rood, vice president of race and sports at MGM: All bets are landing on the Pats, with the wagering public clearly in Tom's corner rather than Peyton's as the line moved from -3 to -3.5 in favor of New England.

John Avello, race and sports operations director at Wynn and Encore: We opened this line at New England -3 and now it's at -3.5. What's embedded in the bettor's mind is Peyton Manning's inability to replicate the performances he had as a quarterback in the days of yesteryear.
