NFL - Week 6
Panthers v Bucs (London)
No real trends in this one, more of an observation:
Last week the Bucs closed +3 AT the Saints last week. Generally speaking, home field is worth 3, maybe even 3.5 for a winning Saints home team in a divisional game – That makes the Bucs roughly half a point better than the Saints on a neutral field.
Fast forward 7 days, and the market indicates that the Panthers are 2 points better than the Bucs on a neutral field (London). This can only be accurate if you accept that the Panthers are a 2.5-ish better team than the Saints. I don’t believe this at all. The value has to be on the Bucs here.
Recommended Bet: 1 Unit – Bucs +2 @ 1.95 (SB/Top)
Texans @ Chiefs
With DeShaun Watson starting at QB, the Texans are 7-5 SU, 7-3-2 ATS on the road
4-4 SU, 6-1-1 ATS as underdogs
Under Patrick Mahomes starting at QB, the Chiefs are 9-3 SU, 6-6 ATS at home
Personal Opinion: I think the Chiefs bounce back after last week, but the Texans are good enough to keep this one close.
Recommended Bet: 1 Unit – Chiefs to win by 1-13 @ $2.60 (Ladbrokes)
Bengals @ Ravens
The Ravens are 10-7 SU, 5-12 ATS as favourites since 2018
3-4 SU, 0-6-1 ATS in divisional games
The Bengals are 2-6 SU, 6-2 ATS in divisional games as underdogs since 2017
Recommended Bet: 1 Unit – Bengals +10.5 @ $1.92 (Ladbrokes)
Saints @ Jags
Under is 7-2 in the Saints’ last 9 road games
Average 43.89, Median 47
Under is 7-2 in the last Jags’ last 9 home games
Average 32.33, Median 29
Recommended Bet: 1.5 Units – Under 43.5 @ $1.85 (TAB)
Cowboys @ Jets
Under is 12-4 in games where the Cowboys are road favourites since 2015
Average 36.81, Median 39
Under is 3-1 in Jets games this season. Admittedly they have been playing with a third string QB for the majority of the year, but I still don’t expect Darnold to come back in and start slinging it after missing over a month.
Recommended Bet: 1.5 Units – Under 44.5 @ $1.92 (Ladbrokes)
Titans @ Broncos
Titans are 7-6 SU, 8-5 ATS as underdogs under Mike Vrabel
Broncos are 4-7 SU, 2-8-1 ATS as favourites since 2018
Underdogs are 5-0 SU, 5-0 ATS in games involving the Titans this season
Recommended Bet: 1.5 Units – Titans +1.5 @ $1.96 (Ladbrokes)
