NFL Week 14 Betting Trends, Stats, Notes: Action Network Betting Primer

After favorites went 13-1-1 straight up and 10-5 against the spread in Week 13, their best week of the season, will the chalk run continue?

Let's look at the slate with the betting trends, stats and notes you need to know. Welcome to Week 14 of Action Network's NFL betting primer.

All data, stats and trends are updated as of Sunday, Dec. 11, 11 a.m. ET.

1. One For The History Books

The 5-7 Lions are favored over the 10-2 Vikings this week. Over the last 20 years, 89 teams have been under .500 straight up and been listed as a favorite over a team with a win pct of 80% or higher — and only eight times has one of those 89 games been played in December or later.

The last time a team with its starting QB and a 80%+ win pct was an underdog vs. a team who was under .500 SU in December or later?

The 9-2 Falcons in 2004 behind Michael Vick were 1.5-pt underdogs in Tampa Bay against the 4-7 Bucs. The Bucs won, 27-0.

2. A Series Of Unders

This season, the under is 11-1 in Denver Broncos games. Only one other team in the last 20 years has started 11-1 to either the over or under — the 2003 Bills were 11-1 to the under behind Drew Bledsoe, went 6-10 SU and ended up 14-2 to the under at the end of the season.

Dating back to the start of last season, the under is 23-6 (79.3%) in Broncos games, the best % in the NFL.

3. Is It Finally Time?

In his career, Tom Brady-led teams are 16-3-2 to the over on their preseason win total (14-3-2 NE, 2-0 TB). The Bucs are one loss away from going under their win total (11) this season. It would be the first time Brady has gone under his team's preseason win total since 2009 (his team's win total is 10-0-2 to over since 2009).

If Brock Purdy starts for the 49ers, this will be only the second time Brady has been an underdog vs. rookie QB. The other? Vince Young in 2006 as a 3.5-point favorite with the Titans at home. Patriots won 40-23.

4. The Perfect Spot

Patrick Mahomes hits the road this week against Denver and some undefeated streaks are on the line:

+ Mahomes away from home vs. AFC West: 14-0 SU, 9-5 ATS
+ Mahomes is 15-0 SU and 8-7 ATS as above a 5-pt favorite on the road in his career.
