Here are the updated trends that I follow.
One thing that stuck out in week 8 was away underdogs were 7-3. According to the lines I have picked, away underdogs have covered 44 times this season and home favorites have only covered 28 times. On the theme of underdogs doing well, home underdogs have covered 21 times and away favorites have covered 15 times. There have been four pushes this season and I excluded the Patriots-Rams game into the above numbers because the game was in London. However, the Patriots were favorites and covered.
Here is where I’m leaning towards in week 9. Check back Friday for my final picks:
Chiefs +8 @ Chargers
