Ravens-Bills Line Moves With Lamar Jackson’s Return as Bettors Back the Lions

With Lamar Jackson returning for Baltimore’s road game against Buffalo, the line moved from 3.5 to 3 and was sitting at 3. The action was well balanced overall, but 87% to 88% of the master money was on the Ravens. Most of that money appeared to come in at 3.5, with nothing taken at 3 before the number moved to 2.5 on the Bills.

In the matchup between Minnesota and Detroit, bettors are anticipating that the Vikings will finally run out of luck. The public is heavily backing the Lions, with 88% of the overall money on Detroit. This is one of the biggest-bet games of the week so far.

Detroit is also receiving 67% of the master money, though that percentage is relatively low compared with the overall action. The Lions are favored by 3, with some bettors buying the number down to 2.5.

The money-line action is more balanced, with a small amount of master money backing Minnesota. The Vikings continue to win despite an unusual reliance on field goals and limited touchdowns. Their path to 6-0 may be unconventional, but they remain unbeaten.
