Who does the public like in NFL Week 15?
The most accurate gauge of public opinion in any sporting event is the sports betting market. By tracking the “number of bets” and “percentage of bets” placed on every match, SportsInsights.com shows readers which teams the public is favoring.
All wagering statistics come directly from the lineboards of six independent online sportsbooks, and represent actual bets placed. We invite the sports media to take advantage of these unique statistics for use in stories, or a sidebar graphic.
NFL Week 14 Recap
Week 14 saw a major turn around for the sports betting industry. All sportsbooks reporting a profitable weekend with most retaining well over 7% of their handle. Scott Kaminsky line manager at Bowmans had this to say, “Finally the ball bounced our way.”
Indy failing to cover was huge as it broke up a ton of teasers and parlays. How they covered I have no idea. The sportsbooks were 7-3 in games with major decisions.
NFL Week 15 Preview
The match ups for NFL Week 15 are rather lackluster. Either good teams playing bad teams, or bad teams play bad teams. There are only a couple of exciting match ups – San Diego at Indy, Dallas at Washington, and Atlanta at Chicago. With only a few good match ups to watch, handle sizes will be a slightly down this weekend.
I’d looked for value in betting underdogs, as the sportsbooks will continue to shade lines in an attempt to recoup some revenue and salvage something out of a dismal 2005 NFL season.
We anticipate Seattle, Indy, Carolina, and Cincinnati to be the most “lopsided-bet” games of the week. Visit SportsInsights.com to view live wagering statistics from six online sportsbooks.
