This is Carrie Stroup with your Week 5 NFL Betting Action Report courtesy of Gambling911.com and Sportsbook.com.

Without a doubt the single most bet on team of the week and the one bookies will be biting their nails over NOT TO COVER is the Minnesota Vikings as an -11 ½ point favorite.  The Vikings were getting nearly 100 percent of the backing from bettors.

The New England Patriots were the second most bet on team of the week, getting around 85 percent of the action.

Carolina was another heavily bet on team and getting around 85 percent of the action against Washington.

The Steelers and Colts were also getting lopsided action though there were not necessarily as heavily bet on games.  At most betting shops, the Steelers were the 5th most wagered on team of the week.  The Colts were around the 5th/6th most bet on.

Cincinnati vs. Baltimore and Dallas vs. Kansas City were two games getting good action but were mostly balanced.
