Public Making a Killing Betting Against Atlanta
The last two weeks have seen the other team getting 75% or more of the betting action and the bookmakers seemingly doing little to encourage betting on the Falcons. Atlanta is now 1-3 Against The Spread. Week 2's action against Green Bay was balanced.
Books have been hit hard by both Atlanta failed covers.
Same 'Ol Falcons
The Falcons started the season on a promising note with two wins - one over the Panthers and the other over the Packers. Both of those though were at home.
Atlanta will come into Week 5 owning a 2-2 record but are 1-3 Against The Spread.
The next game is at home where we anticipate a line of -3.
London Calling
This was all about the -3 until Saturday morning. That' when the books finally moved the number to 3.5 shortly after 9 am ET.
76% of the cash was coming in on the Jaguars in their London game against the Falcons. The Jags had close to $1 million coming in on the spread compared to Atlanta at $300,000.
Circa still held on to the 3. Bookmaker did too. They moved onto the 3.5 for about three minutes Saturday morning. BetOnline moved to 3.5 after 9 am ET and didn't look back. Bovada also moved to the 3.5.
Recreational books enticing books to bet on Atlanta with 75% of action last minute. Jacksonville and the public walked away with a big victory here.
Falcons @ Lions Week 3
The public were not on board with Atlanta in this game as spread action drew just 25% or $300,000 compared to Detroit's $1 million.
Circa moved the line from +3 to +3.5 for Atlanta. BetOnline held steady at +3 as did Bookmaker and Bovada.
The books did very little to encourage action on Atlanta and lost as a result.
