Overview

• Moneyline favorites went 11-1 and finished 7-5 against the spread, boosting parlay returns and keeping roughly 95% of Circa Survivor entries alive.
• Sportsbooks’ biggest win came from Carolina’s 30-27 defeat of Dallas, with BetMGM reporting 75% of bets and 65% of money on the Cowboys.
• Kansas City was BetMGM’s top team by handle and covered -2.5 in a 30-17 win over Detroit, while heavily backed Indianapolis won but failed to cover against Arizona.
• Cincinnati covered +14 in a 27-18 loss at Green Bay after an uptick in Bengals moneyline interest that Caesars linked to Joe Flacco, a result that benefited some books and hurt others, including Westgate.
• Books recorded notable six-figure wagers and payouts, including $312,000 on Giants +7.5 that cashed and a $250,000 Chiefs parlay, while outside the NFL the Mariners won ALCS Game 1 over the Blue Jays as +140 underdogs.
