Archived Week 4 NFL Betting Trends article from Sept. 29, 2020

The San Francisco 49ers ride an ATS death streak into their Week 4 home game against the deathly Philadelphia Eagles and the New York Giants bring a super-profitable road trend to their super-terrible season.

Throw in Week 4 NFL betting trends in the Pittsburgh-Tennessee matchup (OVER streaks galore), a blistering ATS streak by the Saints in October (20-2 ATS) and you have some serious handicapping data to digest this week.

Let’s get started with the Thursday Night Football trends between the Broncos and Jets. Get all the latest NFL odds and our new matchup reports on every game this week.

Denver -3 at NY Jets Total 40

Bettors who prefer trends that cut both ways will consider fading the Broncos here. Denver is 0-3 their past three times a road favorites, while the Jets were home dogs of 1-3.5 points three times and won outright each time. If you can stomach trusting the Jets as small home dogs, here is a great way to start the week.

Denver is 6-21 SU in their last 27 games on the road

OVER is 6-1 Denver’s last 7 visits to NY Jets.

UNDER is 17-5 Denver’s last 22 conference games

Denver is 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games played on a Thursday.

The Bears have been good or lucky so far, but they are just 4-11 ATS in their past 15 games. But check them out as home underdogs since 2016 – 11-3-1 ATS.

UNDER is 10-2 Chicago’s last 12 home games

Colts have lost 6 straight and 8 of 11 on the road

OVER is 10-2 Indianapolis’ last 12 games played in Week 4.

Colts just 2-6 ATS past 8 as road favorites

Chicago are 4-11 ATS in their last 15 games

Pittsburgh -1.5 at Tennessee Total 47

Editor Alert: Several Titans staff tested positive for Covid-19 so this game is tentatively moved to Monday or Tuesday. If you wondered if any NFL game had ever been played on a Tuesday, the Dec. 28, 2010 game between the Eagles and Vikings is the only time. And if you are looking for a single-game ‘trend,’ the Eagles were home favorites of 14 points and lost outright 24-14, with a non-QB running the show for Minnesota (Joe Webb).

This is another spot where so many trends point to the OVER that you feel you should bet UNDER to avoid the set-up. Only Pittsburgh sturdy 20-5 UNDER angle in road games points that direction for totals bettors. On the spread, Tennessee has been good or lucky and we’ll figure out which it is on Sunday.

OVER is 12-1 Tennessee’s last 13 games played on a Sunday.

OVER is 11-1 Tennessee’s last 12 games played in Week 4 (18-4 going back 22 seasons)

OVER is 10-3 Tennessee’s last 13 home games.

UNDER is 20-5 Pittsburgh’s last 25 road games.

Pittsburgh is 12-2 SU past 14 vs AFC South teams.

OVER is 10-4 past 14 Pittsburgh vs Tennessee meetings

Pittsburgh is 7-1-1 ATS in their last 9 games played in October.

LA Chargers +7.5 @ Tampa Bay Total 4

Just the 5^th time since 2010 that Bucs are favored by at least a TD at home. And Tampa bettors hope Tom Brady can reverse this ugly October trend – 1-10-1 ATS in their last 12 games played in October and lost 19 of 24 overall.

LA Chargers are 2-11 ATS past 13 vs NFC South teams.

LA Chargers are 5-1 SU in their last 6 games at Tampa Bay

OVER is 15-6 Tampa Bay’s last 21 games.

Cleveland +4.5 at Dallas Total 56

Hey, it’s a positive ATS trend for Cleveland! They are 10-4 ATS in Week 4 games vs a Cowboys teams that is 2-9 ATS in Week 4 lately. Of course, there are a bunch of negative Cleveland trends too but Browns backers are hoping for a third straight win here. If you are betting Cleveland on the moneyline, you are predicting a road win for the Browns, something they have failed to achieve 34 of the last 38 tries.

Cleveland is 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games played in Week 4.

Dallas is 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games played in Week 4.

Cleveland is 1-18 SU past 19 games played in October.

Cleveland is 4-34 SU past 38 road games.

Cleveland is 0-7 ATS past 7 road games.

Minnesota +3.5 at Houston Total 54.5

A pair of 0-3 teams makes for dangerous handicapping. Houston usually wins as a favorite (15-4 SU past 19) and they usually cover in Week 4 (14-4 ATS past 18 seasons).

Minnesota is all over the place, choking on 2-11 SU run in 13 games as the underdog but rewarding bettors with an 11-1 SU, 8-2-1 ATS run when the calendar flips to October.

OVER is 18-6 Houston’s last 24 games in October.

New Orleans -4 at Detroit Total 54

October has been like Christmas for New Orleans Saints bettors over the past two decades. If you bet the Saints to cover every October game since 2015, you would have won 20 of 22 bets! Yup, 20-2 ATS. They are also dynamite as a road team and have been awesome in Week 4 as well (12-2 ATS).

Detroit is 1-12 SU past 13 games as the underdog.

Detroit is 1-11 SU in their last 12 games.

New Orleans won 12 straight October games, and 20-2 ATS in their last 22 games

New Orleans is 7-1 ATS past 8 road games, 25-9-1 ATS going back 35 games.

New Orleans is 11-4 ATS as road chalk since 2016 season

Detroit is 16-6 ATS in their last 22 Week 4 games

Philadelphia +6.5 at San Francisco Total 45

Finally, the Eagles get a few favorable trends. Now can they actually win a game and cover a spread? Since 2013, the 49ers have been regular-season home favorites of 6 or more points 13 times. They have never covered a spread (0-12-1 ATS). Mix in Philly’s 7-1 ATS streak against San Francisco, including 5 straight in SF, and this must be an Eagle cover?

Philadelphia is 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games.

Philadelphia is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games at San Francisco.

OVER is 7-1 Philadelphia’s last 8 games on the road.

Philadelphia covered five straight visits to San Francisco.

49ers 0-12-1 ATS since 2013 as home chalk of 6 or more (3-18-1 ATS since Oct 2012)

Do you trust Arizona as road favorites after losing a game they should have won in Week 3? This is the first time the Cardinals have been road favorites since November 2017. Carolina has a bunch of negative trends, but buyer beware on the Cards.

Carolina is 1-10 SU past 11 games.

OVER is 12-2 Arizona’s past 14 vs NFC South teams.

Arizona is 3-11 SU past 14 games against Carolina.

Arizona is 7-1-2 ATS in their last 10 games on the road.

Carolina lost 9 straight (1-7-1 ATS) conference games

Carolina is 7-2 ATS past 9 games played in Week 4.

Carolina lost 6 straight as home dogs

Baltimore -14 at Washington Total 50.5

This is the biggest home dog number of the year so far and just the 8^th time since 1980 that Baltimore is double-digit road favorites. Its just the sixth time since 1980 that Washington is a double-digit home dogs (twice last season). The Ravens dominate spreads on the road.

Baltimore is 11-3 ATS in their last 14 games.

Baltimore covered 6 straight road games, 15-4-2 ATS past 21 road games.

Baltimore 7-0 SU, 6-0-1 ATS past 7 as road chalk

Seattle -6.5 at Miami Total 54.5

Not much to see here. Miami holds ATS edges against the Seahawks and they have played five straight OVERs when home dog, so maybe the total is the play.

Seattle is 1-6 ATS past 7 vs Miami.

Seattle 9-1 SU past 10 as road chalk

Miami is 5-1 ATS past 6 home games.

Miami is 3-12 ATS past 15 games played in Week 4.

Jacksonville +3 at Cincinnati Total 48

Cincinnati as home chalk (1-5 ATS) hasn’t been any more successful than playing as dogs. The Jaguars for some reason feast on AFC Northteams.

Cincinnati is 3-20 SU past 23 conference games.

Jacksonville is 10-0-2 ATS past 12 vs AFC North division.

Cincinnati is 1-5 ATS past 6 games as the favorite.

NY Giants +13 at LA Rams Total 47

This is just the fourth time since 2004 that the New York Giants are double-digit underdogs. And despite all the losing in recent years, they have been awesome as a road team (13-3 ATS past 16) and own an 8-1 ATS run against the LA Rams.

Just the 4^th time since 2004 the Giants are DD road dogs

Rams 5-1 ATS since 2013 as double-digit home chalk

Buffalo -2.5 at Las Vegas Total 52.5

The Raiders always beat the Bills at home (11-1 SU past 12 meetings) and dominate as home underdogs (7-2 ATS past 9). Do you trust the Bills as road favorites after last week’s near collapse?

Las Vegas is 3-8 ATS past 11 games played in October.

New England +7 at Kansas City Total 53.5

New England is a TD underdog for the first ‘real’ time in more than a decade this week. We say ‘real’ because they were +7.5 at Arizona to start the 2016 season after DeflateGate when Tom Brady was suspended. And in a nothing Week 17 game at Houston in 2010. Its just the second time since 2014 that New England is a road dog twice in the same season. Of course, they have dominated the spread in this situation over the years.

Patriots have covered six straight as dogs of 7 or more and are 11-2 ATS dating to 1999 in this position.

Kansas City is 10-2 ATS past 12 games as the favorite.

Monday Night Football Trends

Atlanta +7 at Green Bay Total 58

A comfortable 3-0 team vs a crazed 0-3 team that choked bad two weeks in a row. That motivation and desperation probably trumps any trend consideration you can find.
