Early NFL betting for Week 6 has three teams in particular getting extremely lopsided action.  They are the three most bet on teams of the week in the NFL.

Philadelphia by far was getting the most action with 95 percent of those betting on the Eagles/Raiders game all over Philly as a huge -14 road dog.  We're already seeing a few 14 ½ ‘s.  At press time Tuesday evening, Sports Interaction had this one at Philadelphia -14 still, though we don't exactly recommend waiting around to bet that line.  SIA is usually the first to push the underdogs. 

There is a bit of a surprise in that the New York Giants were getting nearly 85 percent of the action as a +3 underdog in New Orleans.  This line was not moving at all since opening at Saints -3.  It appears early on that the oddsmakers have a strong opinion about New Orleans.  This game is going to bare watching in terms of potential line moves and NFL betting action trends. 

The Minnesota Vikings slaughtered the bookies this past weekend and fortunately the Miami Dolphins helped win some of that money back for them.  This week, the gambling public will continue to ride the red hot Vikings who are a -3 home favorite against the Baltimore Ravens and getting between 85 percent and 90 percent of the NFL betting action. 

The Pittsburgh Steelers were getting extremely lopsided action against the Cleveland Browns with a line of -14, though this game was yet to get significant wagering volume compared to the aforementioned teams. 

The Chiefs, Falcons and Broncos were getting over 85 percent of the betting action in their respective games with more volume to be generated as the week progresses, especially with the Falcons and Broncos who play Sunday night and Monday night, respectively.
