Cowboys at Titans odds

Opening line

Titans +9, 44 O/U

Why the line moved

12:44 P.M. ET, THURSDAY DEC. 29: The Titans announced early Thursday afternoon that QB3 Josh Dobbs will be getting the start on Thursday Night Football against the Cowboys. The point spread immediately jumped from Cowboys -12.5 to -13.5 in the wake of the quarterback news. The total is holding at 40.

Cardinals at Falcons odds

Opening line

Falcons -4, 40 O/U

Why the line moved

The Falcons opened as 3-point favorites at home and climbed to as high as -4 before early money on Arizona has slimmed the spread back to a field goal at the end of the week. But those injuries have tacked an extra three points on the line in Week 17. This total has also moved from 42.5 down to 40.5.

Steelers at Ravens odds

Opening line

Ravens -4, 36 O/U

Why the line moved

10:15 A.M. ET, SUNDAY, JANUARY 1: With Lamar Jackson out and sharp players snatching up the points with Pittsburgh earlier in the week, the spread for the Sunday Night Football matchup in Week 17 is down to Baltimore -1.5 at some respected online shops. The market consensus as of Sunday morning is Ravens -2. According to BetMGM books, 58% of bets and 56% of money is backing the road underdog. This total opened as high as 36.5 points and is down to 35 at most books. Should it close there, this would be just the 16th Over/Under of 35 points or less since 2010, with those games producing an 8-7 O/U record.

Bears at Lions odds

Opening line

Lions -5.5, 51.5 O/U

Why the line moved

10:30 A.M. ET, SUNDAY, JANUARY 1: The spread for this NFC North rivalry is sitting at Lions -5.5 after climbing as high as -6.5 earlier in the week. According to WynnBET books, Detroit has drawn 54% of bets and 52.5% of the handle. The total for this divisional dance is as high as 53 points with 85% of money backing the Over and moving this number from an opener of 51.5.

Jaguars at Texans odds

Opening line

Texans +5.5, 44 O/U

Why the line moved

10:30 A.M. ET, SUNDAY, JANUARY 1: While this game carries little weight in the AFC South picture, Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson told the media he’s planning to play his starters in Week 17. This spread has gone for a bit of a ride, opening at Jacksonville -3 and climbing to as high as -4.5 before reports of QB Trevor Lawrence (probable) being limited in practice trimmed this spread to as low as -3 at some books on Sunday morning. The total has also adjusted from 44 to as low as 42.5 points.

Broncos at Chiefs odds

Opening line

Chiefs -12, 43.5 O/U

Why the line moved

10:30 A.M. ET, SUNDAY, JANUARY 1: After the Broncos fired head coach Nathaniel Hackett early in the week, the Chiefs jumped from -12.5 to -13.5 favorites at home in Week 17. However, WynnBET books are reporting one-sided money on the Broncos, who have drawn 78% of the handle despite 58% of bets being placed on Kansas City. Other books, like BetMGM, are heavy on KC ticket count and handle (68%/69%). This total is sitting at 45 points at many books on Sunday morning.

Opening line

Patriots +2, 43.5 O/U

Why the line moved

10:55 A.M. ET, SUNDAY, JANUARY 1: With Miami QB Tua Tagovailoa out due to a concussion, the Dolphins are currently as big as 3-point underdogs in New England at some respected online shops. The Patriots are also missing a number of skill players on offense, which has dropped this total to 40.5 points after opening at 44 points last weekend. According to WynnBET books, 61% of bets are on the Pats but 66% of the money is on Miami with a capable backup in Teddy Bridgewater.

Colts at Giants odds

Opening line

Giants -3.5, 40.5 O/U

Why the line moved

10:55 A.M. ET, SUNDAY, JANUARY 1: New York is sitting at -5.5 for this unsexy Sunday showdown, but hey: that’s why we have sports betting. The Giants were as big as 6-point home chalk and the vig on the -5.5 is trend upward at some shops, so a move back to the key number could happen if we see more money on the G-Men this morning. According to DraftKings books, 79% of money is riding on New York with 78% of bets on New York. This total is sitting between 38 and 39 points.

Saints at Eagles odds

Opening line

Eagles -6.5, 43.5 O/U

Why the line moved

10:55 A.M. ET, SUNDAY, JANUARY 1: Eagles QB Jalen Hurts will miss his second straight game, leaving backup Gardiner Minshew under center. This spread opened at Philadelphia -6.5, ticked up to -7 then bounced between -5.5 and -6.5 all week. It dropped to -5 at some places with the news that Hurts is out.

Buccaneers -3, 40 O/U

Why the line moved

11:00 A.M. ET, SUNDAY, JANUARY 1: After Carolina opened +5.5 and was bet down to as low as +3, buyback on the Buccaneers marched this spread up to as high as Tampa Bay -4 before Sunday play on the Panthers, pushing it back to -3.5. According to BetMGM books, 62% of ticket count and 67% of handle has picked the Panthers while WynnBET books are reporting more wagers and money on Tampa Bay at home.

Why the line moved

11:00 A.M. ET, SUNDAY, JANUARY 1: Carson Wentz is back under center for the Commanders in Week 17, and after this line bounced between Washington -2 and 2.5 all week the market is moving away from the home team with Washington as low as -1 at some offshore books. Some other shops are still hanging the Commanders as high as -2.5 but a move to -2 or lower could be on the way as the vig trims. According to DraftKings books, 58% of bets are on Washington while the handle slightly leans to the home side at 51%. The total is at 40.5 points.

This total is at 41 points after opening as high as 43.5.

Vikings at Packers odds

Opening line

Packers -3.5, 44.5 O/U

Why the line moved

11:15 A.M. ET, SUNDAY, JANUARY 1: As of Sunday morning, you can find the Packers -3 or the Vikings +3.5 – so shop around for the spread that suits your opinion. BetMGM books are a little heavier on Minnesota, with 55% of money on the visitor while DraftKings is reporting 52% of handle on the home side. According to WynnBET books, 68% of money is on the Vikes, which means those Minny +3.5 spreads could dry up before kickoff.

Chargers -6.5, 40.5 O/U

Why the line moved

11:15 A.M. ET, SUNDAY, JANUARY 1: The Battle of Los Angeles currently has the Chargers laying between -6 and -6.5 across the market. The Rams are coming off an impressive performance against Denver and new QB Baker Mayfield may be winning over some bettors, with the Rams drawing 64% of the handle according to BetMGM books. WynnBET is also heavy on Rams handle as of Sunday morning. The Chargers have earned a postseason spot but could improve to fifth in the conference and play the winner of the AFC South in the opening round of the playoffs, rather than potentially facing the defending AFC champion Bengals in the Wild Card Round.

Bills at Bengals odds

Opening line

Bengals +2, 49 O/U

Why the line moved

7:00 P.M. ET, MONDAY, JANUARY 2: Week 17 comes to a close in style with a massive AFC matchup on Monday Night Football. Cincinnati opened as big as +2.5 at home to Buffalo, was bet down to +1 at most books, but buyback on the Bills now has the line back to Buffalo -2.5 at the majority of books with a couple of Cincy +1s and +1.5s left as of Monday evening. DraftKings is reporting a split right down the middle with Buffalo pulling in 49% of the bets and the Bengals with 51%, but the Bills are seeing 54% of money. Heavy action on the Over has the total now at 50.5 with 79% of bets and 77% of money on the Over at DK.
