But bettors believe Jacksonville’s ATS streak ends in Detroit. As of Friday morning, Detroit has received 85% of bets placed and 95% of all money wagered to cover the spread.
Detroit isn’t the only NFC North favorite attracting loads of betting attention. Both the Packers (-5.5) and Vikings (-6) have eclipsed 75% of bets to cover the spread.
All told, favorites have received a majority of spread tickets in nine of the 13 remaining contests in Week 11.
Of those nine teams, six have received at least 60%. Those teams are Detroit, Green Bay, Minnesota, Denver, San Francisco and Houston.
The most popular underdog in terms of bets placed percentage is the Colts (+4) against the Jets. Indianapolis, which returns to Anthony Richardson on Sunday, dropped from +3.5 to +4 despite receiving 72% of bets to cover.
