In the cutthroat world of the NFL, losing is not an option for Dan Campbell & Co. Their history shows they typically bounce back in a strong fashion after dropping a game. As a sports bettor, it may seem daunting to place your money on a team fresh off a loss, or worse, a complete obliteration. However, seasoned betting veterans know that this could be the prime opportunity to strike…unless we’re talking about the Carolina Panthers.
Off-a-loss trends are a goldmine for betting enthusiasts like myself, as some teams transform into absolute beasts in these situations. Lucky for us, Week 3 presents us with a few such scenarios to dig into.
Let’s delve into these specific trend spots and analyze NFL betting trends for each game on the slate to help you make informed decisions. Best of luck with all your bets!
The New York Jets secured a crucial win in Week 2 against the Titans. However, under Saleh, they haven’t historically followed up a winning performance very strongly, going 5-11-1 against the spread and 5-12 straight up. Despite this, they are currently favored by 6.5 points against the New England Patriots, the largest spread in their favor since 1999. Let’s hope history doesn’t repeat itself, as they suffered a loss back then.
The trend of the Bears going Under in nine of their last 12 games is an interesting one. Their defense seems to be thriving, holding eight straight opponents to 20 points or less. The Bears are ranked fifth in yards per play allowed and third in opponent third-down conversion percentage. With a total of 43.5 in this game, it’ll be exciting to see if they can keep up their impressive defensive streak.
On the flip side, the Giants have gone Under in 15 of their last 21 games. Their struggles in scoring, compounded by field goal and extra point woes, have contributed to this trend. The Giants have only managed to score 24 points in two games, while the Browns’ offense hasn’t been much better, failing to break the 20-point mark this season. With a low total of 38.5, this matchup might not be the most attractive in terms of offensive fireworks.
As the NFL continues to surprise and entertain us week after week, it’s crucial to stay informed on the latest trends and stats to make the most out of your betting experience. So, keep an eye on these trend spots and make your bets wisely. Good luck!
