NFL Betting Trends: Team Records Against the Spread and Totals on DraftKings Sportsbook for Week 2

Reid Fowler provides top betting trends to help you place NFL bets on DraftKings Sportsbook.

By Reid Fowler

Week 1 started and finished with exciting games, both of which betting on the underdog would’ve made you a profit on DraftKings Sportsbook. The Dallas Cowboys covered the 9.5-point spread, and the Las Vegas Raiders won outright. Speaking of underdogs, Week 1 was record-setting for them. Nine underdogs won outright, and 12 covered the spread in Week 1, the most in the Super Bowl era. Overall, underdogs were 12-4 last week, and six teams that won 11-plus games last season - the Green Bay Packers, Buffalo Bills, Tennessee Titans, Indianapolis Colts, Baltimore Ravens and Cleveland Browns - all lost.

Here are some key definitions of acronyms that we’ll use throughout the article:

  • SU: Straight Up
  • ATS: Against the Spread
  • O/U: Over/Under
  • MOV: Margin of Victory
  • +/-: Plus/Minus
