NFL Best Bet Picks

Each week the person in charge of a subscriber feature can submit a 'best bet' selection. These have proved to be very potent since the introduction of this concept three years ago, and we will present a best bet freebie on this page each week to showcase the range of our various subscriber handicapping tools.

Analysis:
At the time of posting this, it's early in the week (Wednesday morning) but the Tampa Bay vs New Orleans game is currently showing 94% of the bets being placed on the Bucs to cover a -4 line. Given this extreme one sided action the bet tracker suggests the contrarian play is clearly the Saints. [The second most lopsided game at this stage is NYJ-NE where the Patriots had 92% of the wagers.]

Favor: New Orleans +4
