2024 NFL Divisional round odds, big bets, liabilities, notable action
Sunday’s NFL divisional round features two intriguing matchups, and bettors are all over the games.
We’re tracking the major bets and the wagers with longer odds for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers-Detroit Lions and Kansas City Chiefs-Buffalo Bills games.
It’s no coincidence that the final game of the weekend (Chiefs-Bills) is expected to draw the most action, said Patrick Everson, who covers the sports betting industry for FOX Sports.
“Chiefs-Bills, of course. Absolutely. The NFL got it right,” SuperBook senior risk supervisor Casey Degnon told Everson. “The fact that it’s the last game of the weekend means we’ll see even more money on this game.”
Let’s dive into a plethora of betting nuggets, with insights from oddsmakers, info on where the sharp money is and a couple of the biggest bets so far.
And keep checking back, as we’ll be updating with big bets as they roll in.
