Odds courtesy FanDuel (as of 3 p.m. ET Sept. 13)
Ravens at Raiders
Opening line: Ravens -6, Over/Under 52.5
UPDATE 8:05 P.M. ET MONDAY: Right before kickoff, BetMGM Nevada continues to get flooded by Raiders money, prompting the book to drop to Ravens -3. “There are a lot of big bets on the Raiders,” BetMGM Nevada’s Scott Shelton said, noting 60% of tickets and almost 80% of money on Las Vegas.
And moneyline play is much more skewed, 9/1 tickets and 6/1 dollars.
“If the Raiders win the game outright, it’ll be really ugly for us. We’re stuck big in the moneyline and point-spread market,” Shelton said.
UPDATE 6 PM. ET MONDAY: With just more than two hours before kickoff, TwinSpires Sportsbook has the Ravens a 3.5-point favorite, down from the -4 opener and -4.5 high point. The Ravens are getting 58% of spread bets, while the Raiders are seeing 55% of spread money.
And it appears Las Vegas running back Josh Jacobs, previously questionable with an illness, is trending toward playing tonight.
“Great two-way action,” TwinSpires trading analyst Zachary Lucas said. “We’ve seen sharp money on both sides.”
The total is at 50.5 after opening at 51, with the Over nabbing 64% of bets and 59% of money.
UPDATE 2:30 P.M. ET MONDAY: A few hours before kickoff, Baltimore is -3.5 at FanDuel, the lowest this number has been since opening Baltimore -5 in late June. That said, the Ravens are still taking 78% of point-spread tickets and 83% of point-spread money. And the move from -4 to -3.5, made this afternoon, comes despite news that Las Vegas running back Josh Jacobs (illness) is questionable.
The total opened at 51 and bottomed out this morning at 50, then inched up to 50.5. The Over is landing 60% of tickets and 59% of money.
UPDATE 3:30 P.M. ET FRIDAY: Even with Baltimore’s offensive backfield shorthanded (see below), the Ravens are getting 78% of spread tickets and 83% of spread money at FanDuel. However, with all the injuries in mind, the line dropped from -4.5 straight to -3.5 early today. The Ravens opened -5 back on June 28.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET THURSDAY: While BetMGM Nevada was seeing perhaps some early regional bias on the Raiders, books elsewhere aren’t seeing that pattern. Earlier today, DraftKings was down to -4 on the Ravens, yet was taking 91% of bets and 88% of money on Baltimore. However, over the past two weeks, the Ravens lost three running backs for the year: J.K. Dobbins (ACL), Justice Hill (Achilles) and this afternoon Gus Edwards (ACL). As such, DraftKings dipped to Ravens -3.5, but Baltimore is still taking the vast majority of tickets and money.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: This AFC clash saw some immediate regional bias in the Las Vegas betting market, with BetMGM Nevada dropping Baltimore to -4.5 shortly after first posting it on May 12. The line then fell to -4 a day later and held there until going back to -4.5 in mid-August.
“Tickets are almost 2/1 in favor of the Raiders, and the money as well. Hometown stuff,” Shelton said.
The total opened at 51 and has remained there all summer.
“All the tickets and money are on the Over. Almost nothing on the Under,” Shelton said, while noting action is light thus far.
Cowboys at Buccaneers
Opening line: Buccaneers -6.5, Over/Under 52.5
UPDATE 1 P.M. ET THURSDAY: Several hours ahead of kickoff, BetMGM Nevada now has the Bucs up to -8.5, reaching that point Wednesday in the wake of a slew of big Tampa Bay action.
“There are a lot of large wagers on the Bucs. They’ve been really rolling in the past few days,” BetMGM Nevada’s Jeff Stoneback said. “We definitely need the Cowboys. Tickets are almost 2/1 and money is over 20/1 on the Bucs.”
The total is now at 52, nearly back to the 52.5 opener after bottoming out at 49.5.
UPDATE 10:15 P.M. ET TUESDAY: On May 12, Tampa Bay hit PointsBet USA‘s odds board as a 7-point favorite and almost immediately dipped to -6 before quickly stabilizing at -6.5. The Bucs reached -7 on Aug. 11, -7.5 on Aug. 21 and their current peak of -8 earlier today.
Tom Brady and Co. are now out to -8 for the Thursday night regular-season kickoff, with ticket count running 2/1 and money 3/1 on Tampa.
The total opened at 52.5 and got as low as 49.5 on Aug. 21, then rebounded to 52 by Monday. The total is currently 51.5 at PointsBet, with 54% of tickets on the Over and 61% of money on the Under.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: BetMGM Nevada posted NFL Week 1 odds back on May 12, with this contest opening Tampa Bay -6.5. That’s where it stuck until moving to -7 in early August, then to -8 for a few hours on Aug. 21 before dipping to its current number of -7.5.
“We are heavy on the Bucs,” Shelton said. “Ticket count is close, 1.5/1, but money is 4/1 Bucs. If things continue as they are, we’ll need the Cowboys.”
The total fell from 52.5 to 49.5, then by Aug. 30 rebounded to 51, where the number remains.
“Ticket count is really close on the total, but 5/1 money on the Over,” Shelton said.
Browns at Chiefs
Opening line: Chiefs -5.5, Over/Under 53.5
UPDATE 10:30 P.M. ET SATURDAY: Kansas City opened -5.5 months ago at DraftKings, on May 12 to be exact. The Chiefs peaked at -6.5 on Aug. 31, then backed up to -5 by Thursday, before ticking to -5.5 Friday. Despite the downward pressure on the number, the Chiefs are still taking 77% of bets and 83% of money on the spread. The total moved from 53 to 52.5 to 54.5, much of that over the past week or so. Ticket count and money are both running 3/1 on the Over.
UPDATE 3:30 P.M. ET FRIDAY: FanDuel went up June 28 with Kansas City a 6-point favorite and stuck there until Aug. 31, when the line moved to -6.5. On Thursday morning, however, the line dipped below the key number to -5.5. That said, ticket count is still 2/1 and money 3/1 on the Chiefs. The total moved straight from 52.5 to 54.5 Tuesday, with 73% of tickets/78% of money on the Over.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Kansas City moved from -5.5 to -6 shortly after BetMGM Nevada posted this line, and the number held steady all summer.
“Ticket count is exactly, to the ticket, 2/1 in favor of the Chiefs, and money is 3/1 in favor of the Chiefs,” Shelton said. He added that Kansas City has taken the most point-spread tickets of any team on the 16-game Week 1 docket.
The total moved from 53.5 to 52.5 to 53, with ticket count running 3/1 and money 7/1 on the Over.
“So they’re on Chiefs and Over,” Shelton said.
Steelers at Bills
Opening line: Bills -6.5, Over/Under 52
UPDATE 10:30 P.M. ET SATURDAY: This line opened at Bills -6.5 and spent time at -6 and -7 over the past few months at DraftKings, where it’s now back at the opener. Ticket count and money are both in the 2/1 range on Buffalo. The total opened at 51.5, went to 50 within a few days in May, bottomed out at 47.5 Monday and is now 48.5. It’s two-way action, with 54% of tickets/55% of money on the Over.
UPDATE 3:30 P.M. ET FRIDAY: The Bills hit FanDuel’s odds board at -6.5, got to -7 in early August and returned to the opener in late August. Buffalo is taking 57% of point-spread bets and 64% of point-spread cash. The total dipped from 50 to 48 over the past couple of weeks and is now 48.5, with 56% of tickets and money on the Under.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Buffalo, which made a surprise run to the AFC title game last season after an equally surprising 13-3 regular season, stuck as a 6.5-point favorite until early August. That’s when BetMGM moved the Bills to -7 for a couple of weeks before reverting to the opening line on Aug. 26.
“Tickets are about 1.5/1 in favor of the Bills, and money is right at 2/1 on the Bills,” Shelton said.
The total saw much more movement, falling from 52 to 48.5.
“It’s 2/1 tickets and virtually all the money on the Under so far,” Shelton said.
Packers at Saints
Opening line: Saints -2.5, Over/Under 50
UPDATE 3:30 P.M. ET FRIDAY: New Orleans initially went up at -2 in late June at FanDuel and got to -3 in late July. But that all changed once Aaron Rodgers decided he was coming back to Green Bay. The Packers moved to 2.5-point favorites on July 28, got to -3 in mid-August, then went to -4 Sept. 1, after this game was moved to Jacksonville due to Hurricane Ida’s impact on New Orleans.
Bettors are definitely piling on the Packers, who are nabbing 91% of all point-spread cash. The total is down a point to 49.5, although money is running 3/1 on the Over.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: The line in this contest saw plenty of movement over the past four months. BetMGM Nevada initially pegged New Orleans as a 2.5-point chalk and quickly moved the Saints to -3. But in late July, once Aaron Rodgers decided to return to Green Bay, the number flipped to Packers -2.5 and got to -3 on Aug. 22.
Then Hurricane Ida forced this season opener to move from New Orleans to Jacksonville. Shelton said because of the site change, all previous wagers at BetMGM Nevada were refunded, per the book’s house rules. The game was reposted Sept. 1 at Packers -4, where the number sits tonight.
“All the tickets and all the money are on the Packers, hardly anything on the Saints. But there’s not much money on this game yet,” Shelton said, noting that will certainly change in the coming days.
There’s been no movement on the total of 50.
Bears at Rams
Opening line: Rams -7, Over/Under 45.5
UPDATE 6 P.M. ET SUNDAY: A couple of hours before kickoff, the Rams are out to -9 at PointsBet USA, after spending much of the past few months bouncing between -7.5 and -7. Los Angeles reached -8 this morning and -9 early this afternoon. The Rams are attracting 64% of spread tickets and 70% of spread money, and PointsBet’s Wyatt Yearout said all the moneyline play – presumably including moneyline parlays – is on the Rams, as well.
“Bears cover is good, outright win would be great for the book,” Yearout said.
The total moved from 45.5 to 44.5, rose to 47 by midweek and is now at 46, with 58% of tickets and money on the Under.
UPDATE 10:30 P.M. ET SATURDAY: Los Angeles hit DraftKings’ odds board at -7 on May 12 and was stable at that number until last Sunday, moving to -7.5, then on to -8 on Friday. The Rams are drawing 72% of spread tickets and 84% of spread money. The total moved from 45.5 to 45 right away, dipped to 44 Monday and rebounded to 46.5 Wednesday. There’s two-way action, with 54 percent of bets on the Over, and money running almost dead even.
UPDATE 3:30 P.M. ET FRIDAY: On Monday, FanDuel moved the Rams from -7 to -7.5 for the Sunday night contest, and the number remains -7.5 now. Los Angeles is drawing 69% of tickets and money. The total peaked at 47.5 Thursday off a 45 opener, and it’s now 46.5, with Over/Under tickets and money running almost dead even.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: The point spread in this one didn’t budge at BetMGM Nevada until Aug. 30, when the Rams ticked up to -7.5, where they remain tonight.
“Tickets are just over 2/1 on the Rams, and the money is 2/1 as well,” Shelton said.
The total has been stuck at 44.5 since mid-July, down a point from the opener. To date, Shelton said practically all the money and tickets have been on the Under.
Jets at Panthers
Opening line: Panthers -4.5, Over/Under 43.5
UPDATE 10:30 P.M. ET SATURDAY: This line took a dive over the past few days at DraftKings, from Panthers -5.5 Tuesday to Panthers -3.5 tonight. But tickets and money are running about 2/1 on Carolina, actually up from earlier in the week at DK (see below).
UPDATE 5:30 P.M. ET TUESDAY: DraftKings opened Carolina as a 5-point favorite on May 12 and almost immediately went to -4.5, where the line spent most of the summer. The number rose over the past couple of weeks, reaching -5.5 on Aug. 31, but it’s two-way action, with the Panthers landing 59% of tickets and 52% of money.
The total opened at 43.5, fell to 43 and is now at 45, with 65% of tickets and 88% of money on the Over.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: This game features Jets rookie QB Zach Wilson against new Panthers QB Sam Darnold, whom the Jets selected with the third overall pick in the 2018 NFL draft. Darnold and Carolina opened -4.5, spent much of the past four months at -4, then moved up to -5 over the past two weeks.
The total initially ticked down to 43 but now sits at 44.5.
Jaguars at Texans
Opening line: Jaguars -1.5, Over/Under 46
UPDATE 10:30 P.M. ET SATURDAY: Jacksonville, with rookie QB Trevor Lawrence, opened as a 1.5-point road favorite and reached its peak of -3.5 on Friday and again a short time ago this evening. Ticket count is 3/1 and money 2/1 on the Jaguars.
UPDATE 5:30 P.M. ET TUESDAY: The Texans officially named Tyrod Taylor the starting quarterback Monday. Deshaun Watson remains on the active roster, but he requested a trade in January and has been mired in off-field legal issues for months.
DraftKings initially remained at Jaguars -3 on the Taylor news, but perhaps interestingly, the line dipped to Jags -2.5 this morning. Jacksonville is taking 84% of tickets and 70% of money on the point spread. The total is down to 44.5 from a 45.5 opener, with 72% of tickets and 76% of money on the Under.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Bettors were apparently immediately enamored with Jaguars rookie QB Trevor Lawrence, as BetMGM Nevada moved from -1.5 to -2.5 within the first two hours of posting this line on May 12. On Aug. 22, Jacksonville moved to -3, where the number sits now.
Another contributing factor to the line move is the Texans’ uncertainty at QB, as Deshaun Watson deals with off-field issues. At the moment, it appears Tyrod Taylor will get the start Sunday.
The total is down a point to 45.
Cardinals at Titans
Opening line: Titans -2.5, Over/Under 51.5
UPDATE 10:30 P.M. ET SATURDAY: Tennessee has been fairly stable at -3 over the past few days at DraftKings, where ticket count and money are both running 3/1 on the Titans. The total went from 52 on Friday morning to 54 on Friday afternoon, then to 53.5, with 58% of bets/68% of money on the Over.
UPDATE 5:30 P.M. ET TUESDAY: The Titans opened -2.5 at DraftKings, ticked to -3 in early August and remained there almost all of the past month. Tennessee went back to -2.5 Saturday and returned to -3 this afternoon. The Titans are seeing 76% of spread bets and 87% of spread money.
The total is up a point to 52.5.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Tennessee rose to -3 in early June and remains there to this moment at BetMGM Nevada. The total initially dipped a tick to 51, but jumped to 52 on Sept. 1.
Chargers at Washington
Opening line: Chargers -1, Over/Under 45
UPDATE 10:30 P.M. ET SATURDAY: This line jumped the fence again, from Chargers -1 to Washington +1.5 over the past couple of days. The spread is getting two-way action, with 53% of tickets on Los Angeles and 57% of money on Washington. The total of 45 is also seeing two-way action.
UPDATE 8 P.M. ET TUESDAY: Washington opened -1.5 back in May at DraftKings, but the number quickly flipped to Los Angeles -1.5, then spent the past several weeks fluctuating between Chargers -1.5 and -1. The Chargers are currently -1 while taking 65% of tickets and 62% of money.
The total opened at 45, bottomed out at 44 and is currently 44.5, with 70% of tickets and 56% of money on the Over.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: This line didn’t budge at all over the summer at BetMGM Nevada, staying at Chargers -1. And after a quick drop from 45 to 44.5 a few hours after the May 12 opener, the total hasn’t moved either.
Eagles at Falcons
Opening line: Falcons -3.5, Over/Under 47
UPDATE 10:30 P.M. ET SATURDAY: DraftKings moved the Falcons from -3 to -3.5 on Thursday, then went back to -3 a short time ago. The visiting Eagles are getting 54% of tickets and 60% of money on the point spread. The total is up to 49, with 56% of bets/69% of dollars on the Over.
UPDATE 8 P.M. ET TUESDAY: Atlanta stuck at -3.5 pretty much all summer at DraftKings, went to -4 Aug. 31 and fell to -3 Monday. The Falcons are drawing 53% of spread tickets, but the Eagles are landing 60% of spread dollars.
The total opened at 46.5, hit 48.5 a couple of times over the past week-plus and is now 48. The Under is taking 60% of tickets, while the Over is nabbing 61% of money.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: This is another point spread that has seen zero line movement since BetMGM Nevada first posted it in May. The total bounced around a bit, rising to 48 early on, receding to 47.5 in mid-July, then returning to 48 Aug. 12.
Seahawks at Colts
Opening line: Colts -2.5, Over/Under 52.5
UPDATE 10:30 P.M. ET SATURDAY: This number has been stable at Seahawks -2.5 since Tuesday at DraftKings, and it’s still all Seattle action. The Seahawks are getting 80% of tickets and 85% of money. The total receded once again, from 50.5 Wednesday to 48.5 this afternoon, before ticking up to 49. The Under is getting 53% of tickets, while the Over is taking 54% of money.
UPDATE 8 P.M. ET TUESDAY: Like everywhere else, this line jumped the fence at DraftKings, due to uncertainty over the status of Colts QB Carson Wentz. He’s reportedly on track to start, but he had foot surgery in early August and had a stretch on the COVID list, too.
The Colts opened -2.5 and the line flipped to Seahawks -2.5 on July 30. Shortly thereafter, the Seahawks peaked at -3.5, bottomed out at -1 and are now -2.5. Seattle is taking 77% of tickets and 85% of money on the spread.
The total fell from 52.5 to 48 by Aug. 11 and has since worked its way up to 50, with 56% of tickets/71% of money on the Over.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: This is one of the biggest Week 1 movers, essentially because of Indianapolis’ QB situation. Carson Wentz, who was acquired from the Philadelphia Eagles in the offseason, had foot surgery in early August, prompting BetMGM Nevada to take the game off the board. The line went back up Aug. 5, adjusting all the way to Seahawks -3.5 before dipping to Seahawks -1.5 over the ensuing week.
By Aug. 30, Seattle was back to -2.5. With Wentz missing the entire preseason, including for a stint on the COVID-19 list, it’s uncertain whether he’ll start in Week 1. So the total has adjusted as well, plummeting from 52.5 to 48.5.
Shelton said the Seahawks are drawing the second-most point-spread tickets in Week 1 at BetMGM Nevada, trailing only the Chiefs.
Vikings at Bengals
Opening line: Vikings -3, Over/Under 47.5
UPDATE 10:30 P.M. ET SATURDAY: On Wednesday, the Vikings dipped from -3.5 to -3, where the number still sits, with ticket count running 2/1 and money 4/1 on Minnesota. The total remains relatively stable at 47, with 53% of tickets on the Under and 63% of money on the Over.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET TUESDAY: DraftKings opened Minnesota as 2.5-point chalk May 12 and quickly moved to -3.5, where the line consistently stuck until dipping to -3 last week. The Vikings are now back at -3.5, taking just 54% of tickets but 82% of money.
The total sat at 48 most of the past four months and dipped to 47 earlier today. The Under is getting 67% of bets and 54% of money.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Minnesota spent much of the summer at the opening number of -3 at BetMGM Nevada. On Aug. 12, the line ticked up to -3.5, then moved back to -3 on Sept. 2. The total edged up months ago to 48 and hasn’t changed.
49ers at Lions
Opening line: 49ers -7.5, Over/Under 46
UPDATE 10:30 P.M. ET SATURDAY: The Niners shot up 2 points over the past couple of days, now sitting -9.5 at DraftKings. Ticket count is 4/1 and money 5/1 on San Francisco. The total also poked up from 45 to 46.5 in that frame, before going back to 46, with ticket count dead even and 58% of money on the Over.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET TUESDAY: At DraftKings, San Francisco toggled between the -7 opener and -7.5 numerous times the past few months, and the 49ers are currently -7.5. This game is one of the most lopsided on the Week 1 docket, with the 49ers grabbing 86% of bets and 89% of money.
The total opened at 46.5 and now sits at its low of 45, with 69 percent of tickets on the Under, while money is running dead even.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: BetMGM Nevada apparently locked in well on this line, as San Francisco remains -7.5 almost four months after this game first went up. The total fell a tick to 45.5.
Dolphins at Patriots
Opening line: Patriots -2.5, Over/Under 45.5
UPDATE 10:30 P.M. ET SATURDAY: The Patriots moved from -3 to -3.5 a couple times over the last couple of days, including this afternoon. New England is netting 58% of spread tickets and 69% of spread money. The total is steady at 43.5, with 52% of tickets on the Over and 59% of money on the Under.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET TUESDAY: New England opened -2.5 at DraftKings, got as low as -1.5 back in May, reached -3 in mid-August and went to -2.5 on Aug. 31. On Sunday, the line crept up to -3 again, with the Patriots netting 60% of bets and 80% of cash on the spread.
The total opened at 45.5, bottomed out at 43 last week and is now 43.5, with 61% of bets on the Over and 62% of money on the Under.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: This line spent some time at New England -2, then toggled between -2.5 and -3 the past month-plus at BetMGM Nevada. The Patriots, who recently cut former NFL MVP Cam Newton and named rookie Mac Jones the starting QB, are currently -3.
In response to the news that Jones will start under center, the total slid to 43.
Broncos at Giants
Opening line: Broncos -1.5, Over/Under 42.5
UPDATE 10:30 P.M. ET SATURDAY: Denver is a stable 3-point chalk, drawing 62% of spread bets and 74% of spread dollars at DraftKings. The total on Saturday fell from 42.5 to 41.5, then upped to 42, with 52% of bets on the Over and 66% of money on the Under.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET TUESDAY: DraftKings pegged Denver a slim 1.5-point favorite back in May, and the line briefly flipped to Giants -1 in mid-July. Most of the movement has come in the last couple of weeks, with the Broncos going from -1.5 to -3. Denver is drawing just 54% of spread tickets, but 78% of spread money.
The total stuck at 42.5 much of the past four months, with a brief peak of 43 in mid-July and a brief valley of 41.5 on Saturday. DraftKings is now at 42, with 66% of tickets on the Over and 70% of money on the Under.
UPDATE 9 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Denver acquired QB Teddy Bridgewater in an offseason trade with Carolina, and late last month he officially supplanted Drew Lock as the starter. That seemed to give a jolt to this line, which was as low as Broncos -1 and is now up to Broncos -2.5. Shelton said Denver has drawn the third-most spread tickets of any team on the Week 1 board.
The total was stable until Saturday, when it fell a notch to 42.
