Trends in NFL Betting
Recent NFL games show a significant trend where underdogs are outperforming expectations, specifically favorites of five and a half points or more. The statistics indicate that these favorites are just 2-13 against the spread, which demonstrates a clear shift in how teams are performing early in the season. This trend is particularly highlighted by several O and 2 teams that not only covered the spread but won their games outright. As the season progresses, it is essential for bettors to reassess their strategies based on these changing dynamics in the league.
