The New England Patriots are currently 14-point favorites over visiting Washington. 60% of the money has been placed on the Patriots to cover the spread. Washington is yet to win away this season, while the Patriots haven't lost at home since America was under British rule.
New England leads the league with a 16.6 point differential at this point in the year, which is why the 14-point spread isn't as crazy as it initially looks. The Patriots have been big favorites in all but their second game of the year, when they visited Buffalo as just a 1-point favorite.
The Patriots are 2-0-2 against the spread while playing at home and Washington is 1-2. As ludicrous as it sounds, the trends point to the Patriots covering.
The over/under is set at 52, which projects a Patriots victory with the score of 33-19. Money has been evenly split on both sides.
Can you predict the final score?
