Spread tickets indicate public money. Spread handle reflects sharp action. Let’s dive in:
1. Bears (+10) @ Cowboys
Pros: Cowboys 67% handle
Joes: Bears 63% tickets
Rationale: Pros know the Cowboys have covered 11 of their last 12 against teams with losing records and that Chicago is on a short week – with lots of travel ✈️. Joes were floored by what Da Bears did to Bill Belichick.
2. Patriots (-2.5) @ Jets
Pros: Patriots 80% handle
Joes: 50%/50% tickets
Rationale: Joes want to hop on the Jets (4-0 ATS since loss to Bengals), while Pros see history repeating itself: New England has beaten New York 12 straight times.
3. Giants (+3) @ Seahawks
Pros: Seahawks 61% handle
Joes: Giants 58% tickets
Rationale: Joes note the G-Men being 6-1 ATS, while Pros know that Seattle’s supersonic fans make Lumen Field a dizzying venue.
