The final game of the first week of the NFL preseason kicks off Sunday at 4:05 p.m. ET with the New Orleans Saints taking on the Los Angeles Chargers.
Live NFL odds have Los Angeles as the slightest of favorites (-1.5) against New Orleans, with the over/under settled at 37.5.
For those who were busy or haven’t been paying close attention to NFL odds for Sunday, smart money quietly hit Saints vs. Chargers on Saturday night, forcing a noteworthy adjustment from sportsbooks heading into today’s game.
Let me explain.
NFL Odds, Sharpest Saints vs. Chargers Pick
*Odds as of Sunday morning
Eighty-three percent of tickets wagered on the Saints vs. Chargers have come down on the over thus far.
According to Action PRO’s betting software, the wiseguys are among that majority.
This line initially hit the market at 36.5 before sharps steamed the over, kicking it up one point to the current consensus of 37.5.
Steam refers to sudden, uniform line movement across the market and is often the result of bettors with the resources and respect to move odds getting down on the same wager at multiple sportsbooks, all at once.
The vig does vary — albeit minimally — depending on the sportsbook, so be sure to shop for the best possible price if playing the Saints vs. Chargers over.
