Books Crushed Again With Patriots Cover
For the third straight week, bookmakers have taken a hit in the NFL, and this week it was all about the New England Patriots dismantling the Bills on the road.
Dave Mason of BetOnline revealed via Twitter:
Not even close. The Patriots - Bills will be our biggest sweat. 87% of $ on NE. Tons of volume. Twice as much $$$ on them than next closest team (Falcons).
New England beat Buffalo 23-3. It was the Patriots eighth straight victory. They were around a 2-1 favorite to win Super Bowl 52.
The good news for books is that most of the high volume games were seeing relatively balanced action.
Monday night’s Steelers-Bengals game had Pittsburgh getting around 75% of the early betting action with a spread of -5.
