It only took one weekend of NFL action for a Caesars sportsbook bettor to cash a nine-leg parlay for nearly $100,000.
Key Takeaways
- The parlay was graded as a win for $92,528 after the Bills beat the Ravens on SNF.
- Another Caesars bettor won $33,125 from a four-leg anytime touchdown scorer parlay.
2024 was a strong year for the NFL betting public. Favorites had records of 195-77, their best outright record since 2005. Despite that success, bookmakers still finished the year in the green.
One Caesars bettor in Nevada did his best to change that this season, turning a $1,500 wager into $92,528 after betting a parlay with about +6,169 odds.
The bettor's nine-leg parlay featured moneyline picks from more than half of all the Week 1 games, including a final leg that was settled after the Baltimore Ravens-Buffalo Bills thriller Sunday night.
The parlay included legs of:
- Bills ML (-120)
- Jaguars ML (-155)
- Bengals ML (-260)
- Eagles ML (-320)
- Packers ML (-130)
- Rams ML (-145)
- Commanders ML (-320)
- Steelers ML (-155)
- 49ers ML (-125)
The bet almost came to be for nothing when the Bills fell behind the Ravens 40-25. ESPN Bet reported it had live moneyline odds as long as +2,000 before reigning MVP Josh Allen engineered a dramatic comeback, which included two touchdowns and a field goal during the final 3:56.
Bills-Ravens parlay ends in $33K payout
While the parlay prognosticator made out with nearly six figures, Caesars shared that it gave out another $33,125 to one of its users in Iowa.
The customer submitted a $500 wager on a four-leg parlay at +6,525 odds with picks entirely from the Sunday Night Football showdown.
The picks were:
- James Cook TD (+100)
- Keon Coleman TD (+235)
- Lamar Jackson TD (+200)
- Zay Flowers TD (+185)
Cook and Coleman only scored in the same game four times last year. Jackson and Flowers did not score in the same game in 2024.
The parlay was aided by the offensive explosion from both teams, who finished with combined totals of 81 points, 929 yards, and only one turnover in regulation.
Preparing for Week 2 betting
Betting odds for Week 2 of the NFL season are already out at major sportsbooks.
The week begins with the Washington Commanders visiting the Green Bay Packers on Thursday Night Football, where the home team is a 3.5-point favorite. Quarterbacks Jordan Love and Jayden Daniels are in the mix for MVP honors, while their teams are second and fourth in odds to win the NFC, respectively.
The Ravens are the biggest favorites of the week as they prepare to face the Cleveland Browns at home.
