NFL Week 13 Betting Trends, Stats, Notes: Action Network Betting Primer
Six weeks to go in the regular season and we still have 25 teams' win totals left to be decided across the league … lot of games to play!
Let's look at the slate with the betting trends, stats and notes you need to know. Welcome to Week 13 of Action Network's NFL betting primer.
All data, stats and trends are updated as of Sunday, Dec. 4, 12 p.m. ET.
1. Back On Top!
For the first time this season, the Kansas City Chiefs are now the favorites to win the Super Bowl over the Bills and as of about 10 days ago, Patrick Mahomes is the -140 favorite to win the NFL MVP.
2. Odds On New York
The New York Jets haven't made the playoffs since 2010. Their 11-year drought is the longest in the NFL. Entering this season, New York was +650 to make the playoffs. The Jets are now -115.
3. The Perfect Spot
Here we are again, with the Titans as decently sized underdogs. Mike Vrabel is 22-17 on the moneyline as an underdog. A $100 bettor would be up $2,615.
As an underdog of more than a field goal, Vrabel is 16-10 straight up.
4. Prime time Struggles
- Andy Dalton has struggled in his career in prime time. He is 6-20 SU and 9-17 ATS. His 9-17 ATS mark makes him the second-least profitable QB ATS at night over the last 20 years (ahead of just Carson Palmer).
- Tom Brady is 25-24-1 ATS with the Bucs, including 3-7-1 ATS this season. This is Brady’s worst ATS start to a season since starting 3-8 ATS in 2002.
