Scoring Boom

NFL teams are on pace to establish a new record for the average number of points scored in a game. Through 10 weeks of play, the total score of NFL games was hovering just under 50 points per game.  That is significant because scoring in NFL games has never reached 50 points per game for an entire season. Three teams average over 30 points per game — Kansas City (32.1), Seattle (31.8), and Green Bay (30.8). A look at the live Super Bowl odds shows the Chiefs atop most boards, with the Steelers, Saints, Buccaneers and Ravens strong contenders. Pittsburgh, which is fourth in scoring offense (29.8), leads the league in scoring defense giving up just 17.4 points per game. The Los Angeles Rams are second allowing 18.7 and Baltimore is third at 19.5. The New York Jets, currently 0-10 on the season, are scoring just 14.9 points a game. As bad as that is, it doesn’t come close to the 1992 Seattle Seahawks. That Seattle team has the NFL record for fewest points in a 16-game season – 140. That averages out to just 8.75 per game.

Passing Numbers

If you got in on the NFL futures passing market, you might want to check out the numbers after 10 games. Patrick Mahomes leads the league with 3,035 yards. He is on pace to throw for 4,856 yards for the season.  Russell Wilson, who has 2,986 yards so far, leads the league in passing touchdowns with 30. He is on pace to hit 48 for the season. Green Bay’s Aaron Rodgers is right on Wilson’s tail in passing touchdowns. Rodgers is on pace to throw for 46 this season. Wilson is still the favorite at +260 to lead the league in passing yards. Mahomes is listed at +400 while Rodgers is somewhat of a longshot at +1000. Have you seen the 2020 college football betting trends?

Rushing Numbers

Last year’s leading rusher Derrick Henry picked up where he left off and leads the NFL in rushing in 2020 with 1,079 yards. Minnesota’s Dalvin Cook is hot on his tail with 1,069. The pair and their 2020 NFL stats are both heavy favorites to lead the league in rushing. Henry is listed at -110 and Cook is at -120.  At his current pace, Henry would rush for 1,726 yards surpassing his total of 1,540 from last year when he ran away with this prop bet.

Betting Love

NFL bettors this season are absolutely head over heels about the Pittsburgh Steelers. Not only are the Steelers 10-0 straight up, but they lead the entire NFL with an 8-2 record against the spread. They have been a favorite for premium picks with their great record against the spread. Bettors that care about 2020 NFL stats also have strong feelings for Las Vegas, Miami, and, surprisingly, the New York Giants. All three teams are 7-3 ATS. The Giants are part of the worst division in football, the NFC East. After 10 games, Philadelphia leads the division with a record of 3-6-1. The Giants are second at 3-7, but they have kept games close all season long. Did you see last week’s 2020 NFL Week 11 best bets?
