NFL Odds for Every Game of NFL Week 13

Cincinnati Bengals vs Jacksonville Jaguars Odds

• Opening point spread: Jaguars -8
• Opening moneyline: Jaguars -400/Bengals +300
• Opening total: Over/Under 42 points scored
• Time: 8:15 p.m. ET Monday (ESPN/ABC)

UPDATE 4:30 P.M. ET MONDAY: With kickoff less than four hours out, Jacksonville is up to 10-point chalk at Fanatics/PointsBet. That's up from a -7.5 opener on Nov. 26, with the line reaching Jags -9.5 over the weekend and toggling between -9.5/-10 the past 36 hours.

Jacksonville is taking 71% of spread tickets, but a more modest 58% of spread dollars.

The total hasn't seen nearly as much movement, opening at 40.5, going to 40 and now at 41. The Over is seeing 53% of money, but 63% of cash is on the Under.

By ticket count, Travis Etienne Anytime TD is the most popular player prop tonight, with bettors backing the Jags running back at -145. By money count, Evan Engram Anytime TD is the top player prop, with the Jags tight end getting support at +270.

UPDATE 6 P.M. ET WEDNESDAY: Jacksonville opened -7.5 and made a stop at -8 on the way to -8.5 at TwinSpires Sportsbook. Ticket count is 2/1-plus and money 4/1-plus on the Jags.

"The Jaguars are a very popular bet, especially in teasers. The Jags are our No. 1 teaser liability," Lucas said.

TwinSpires' total is already down 3 points at TwinSpires, from 41 to 38. The Under is taking 54% of tickets/65% of dollars.

"Sharp play on Under 41," Lucas said.

UPDATE 10 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Jacksonville (8-3 SU and ATS) dodged overtime by the circumference of the crossbar at Houston in Week 12. The Jags won 24-21 to cash as 1-point faves, clinching it when a Texans 58-yard field-goal attempt bounced off the crossbar.

Cincinnati (5-6 SU/4-6-1 ATS) is looking less and less likely to survive the loss of Joe Burrow (wrist injury). In Week 12, the Bengals were 2-point home 'dogs vs. Pittsburgh and lost 16-10.

"It was a bit of a struggle for Jake Browning today," Michaelson said of the Cincy QB, before getting to Bengals-Jags. "This game would likely be within a field goal with Burrow playing. But on Monday night, we're looking at one-way traffic on Jacksonville. I wouldn't be shocked if this line continued to go up."

So far, though, it hasn't. Jacksonville remains -8 in The SuperBook's NFL odds Week 13 market.

Completed Games for NFL Week 13

Kansas City Chiefs vs Green Bay Packers Odds

• Opening point spread: Chiefs -7
• Opening moneyline: Chiefs -300/Packers +240
• Opening total: Over/Under 42 points scored
• Time: 8:20 p.m. ET Sunday (NBC)

UPDATE 7:30 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Kansas City advanced from -6.5 (-115) to -7 briefly on Monday at BetMGM, then backed up to -6.5 flat. On Wednesday, the Chiefs fell to -6, and this evening, the number made a brief visit to -5.5.

As kickoff approaches, K.C. is a 6-point favorite. Spread tickets are running almost 4/1 and spread money 7/1 on the Chiefs. The favorites are having a huge NFL Sunday so far, going 9-1 SU/8-2 ATS after going 12-4 ATS last week.

Bettors are looking for one more tonight, while bookmakers need the Packers, and preferably outright. No doubt, every live moneyline parlay – and there are plenty – is running to the Chiefs.

"We need the Packers really bad. We are taking a dull axe to the back of our head today," BetMGM Nevada's Scott Shelton said.

The total opened at 42.5 and initially backed up to 42 and 41.5 (Over -120) early last week. By Wednesday, the number returned to 42.5, and today brought moves to 43/43.5. Ticket count is approaching 2/1 and money 2.5/1 on the Over.

UPDATE 6 P.M. ET WEDNESDAY: The Chiefs opened -6.5 and are down to -6 in TwinSpires' NFL odds Week 13 market. Kansas City is taking 64% of spread bets early on, but just 52% of spread money.

"Sharp play on Green Bay +6.5," Lucas said.

The total nudged down from 42.5 to 42, with 65% of tickets on the Over/57% of cash on the Under.

UPDATE 10 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Green Bay (5-6 SU/6-5 ATS) got the surprise victory of Week 12, in the opener of a Thanksgiving tripleheader. The Packers were 8.5-point road 'dogs against Detroit and controlled the game throughout in a 29-22 victory.

Kansas City (8-3 SU/7-4 ATS) spotted Las Vegas a 14-0 lead by early in the second quarter. But it was all Chiefs from there. K.C. tied it at 14 by halftime and went on to a 31-17 road win laying 9 points.

"The Packers looked good against Detroit. And against most teams, that would probably be worth something to the line," Michaelson said. "But in this spot on a Sunday night against Kansas City, we are going to be so loaded up to the Chiefs that it doesn't make sense to go below a touchdown.

"We expect to need the Packers for as much as we did on Thanksgiving."

Which was a lot. Green Bay's upset of Detroit was a boon for sportsbooks and a bust for bettors.

The Chiefs-Packers spread and total are stable tonight.

Carolina Panthers vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers Odds

• Opening point spread: Buccaneers -6
• Opening moneyline: Buccaneers -250/Panthers +200
• Opening total: Over/Under 38.5 points scored
• Time: 4:05 p.m. ET Sunday (CBS)

UPDATE 3:30 P.M. ET SUNDAY: DraftKings Sportsbook opened the Bucs -6 and toggled between -5.5/-5 much of the week. On Saturday, Tampa dipped to -4/-3.5, and earlier today, the line bottomed out at -3 -118.

The Bucs have since rebounded to -4. Tampa Bay is taking 80% of spread bets/62% of spread dollars.

DraftKings opened the total at 39.5 and was down to 37 by Monday afternoon. The number dipped to 36.5 Saturday and is now 37 again. The Under is netting 53% of bets/70% of money.

UPDATE 2 P.M. ET FRIDAY: The Bucs spent pretty much all week at various iterations of -5.5 in BetMGM's NFL odds Week 13 market. That's after opening -6 and dropping to -5.5 (-105) Monday. Ticket count is actually 2.5/1 and money almost 5/1 on the one-win Panthers to cover.

BetMGM's total opened at 38.5, went to 37.5 Monday, 37 Tuesday and 36.5 this morning. Tickets are 9/1 and money beyond 10/1 on the Under.

UPDATE 10 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Tampa Bay (4-7 SU/6-5 ATS) was a 2.5-point underdog at Indianapolis and lost 27-20 in week 12. Carolina (1-10 SU/2-8-1 ATS) fell to Tennessee 17-10 catching 3.5 points on the road.

There's been no movement on the spread or total tonight in the NFL odds Week 13 market.

San Francisco 49ers vs Philadelphia Eagles Odds

• Opening point spread: Pick
• Opening moneyline: 49ers -145/Eagles +125
• Opening total: Over/Under 46.5 points scored
• Time: 4:25 p.m. ET Sunday (FOX)

UPDATE 3:45 P.M. ET SUNDAY: With kickoff approaching, the Niners are -3 (-105) in DraftKings' NFL odds Week 13 market. The Eagles opened -1 (-105), but the line quickly jumped the fence last Sunday night to 49ers -1.5.

San Fran went to -2/-2.5/-3 Monday, then over the course of the week toggled between -3/-2.5 a couple times. Philly is getting 56% of spread tickets, while 56% of spread money is on San Francisco.

The total opened at 45, stretched to 47 by Monday and peaked at 48 Thursday. It's since receded to 46.5, with 71% of tickets on the Over/65% of money on the Under.

UPDATE 6 P.M. ET WEDNESDAY: San Francisco opened -2.5 and now sits at -3 (-105) on TwinSpires' NFL Week 13 odds board. The Eagles are landing 62% of spread bets, while 72% of spread cash is on the Niners.

"It's a Pros vs. Joes matchup. The Pros are all over San Francisco, while the public loves getting a 10-1 team +3 at home," Lucas said.

TwinSpires' total climbed from 45.5. to 46.5, then tonight went to 47.5. The Over is seeing 58% of early bets/66% of early cash.

UPDATE 10 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Philadelphia (10-1 SU/7-2-2 ATS) got a win and cover by the narrowest of margins in Week 12. Facing a desperate Buffalo team, the Eagles won 37-34 on a Jalen Hurts TD run in overtime. Hurts' 12-yard jaunt allowed Philly to cash as 2.5-point chalk.

San Francisco (8-3 SU/6-5 ATS) enters this matchup off a mini-bye, having played on Thanksgiving night. The 49ers rolled past the Seahawks 31-13 giving 7 points on the road.

"We went back and forth on this line, eventually settling on pick 'em," Michaelson said of The SuperBook's opener. "The Eagles are in the middle of such a difficult stretch, and the power rating for San Fran is out of this world. We expect plenty of two-way action, and this game figures to be among the highest-handle games of the season."

Perhaps surprisingly, San Fran moved to -1/-1.5 within a couple hours tonight.

Cleveland Browns vs Los Angeles Rams Odds

• Opening point spread: Rams -3
• Opening moneyline: Rams -220/Browns +180
• Opening total: Over/Under 39.5 points scored
• Time: 4:25 p.m. ET Sunday (FOX)

UPDATE 4 P.M. ET SUNDAY: This line has been all over the map in DraftKings' NFL odds Week 13 market. The Rams opened -2 last Sunday, shot to -5 by Monday afternoon, then fell back to -3.5 by Thursday.

Los Angeles moved to -4 Friday, then this morning returned to -3.5. The Rams are getting 61% of tickets/62% of money on the spread.

DK's total opened at 38.5, got to 39.5 Tuesday and 40.5 Thursday. It's now at 39.5, with 61% of tickets on the Under and money running dead even.

UPDATE 6 P.M. ET WEDNESDAY: TwinSpires has dropped from Rams -5 to -4 and now -3.5. Los Angeles is netting 68% of spread bets, while Cleveland is drawing 60% of spread money.

"It's a Pros vs. Joes matchup. Pros are on the Browns +5," Lucas said.

The total advanced from 38.5 to 39.5 and hit 40 this evening. That said, it's two-way play with a lean toward the Over, at 55% of tickets/57% of money.

UPDATE 10 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Cleveland (7-4 SU and ATS) saw its three-game SU and four-game ATS run end in Denver. The Browns lost 29-12 getting 2 points.

Los Angeles (5-6 SU/5-5-1 ATS) pounded Arizona 37-14 laying 3 points on the road.

The Browns-Rams line has seen a lot of early movement on The SuperBook's NFL Week 13 odds board. L.A. opened -3, quickly advanced to -4, then back to -3.5. Then the Rams returned to -4 on the way to -4.5. All those moves came within 90 minutes.

The total saw a couple quick moves, too, from 39.5 to 39/38.5.

Detroit Lions vs New Orleans Saints Odds

• Opening point spread: Lions -3.5
• Opening moneyline: Lions -200/Saints +170
• Opening total: Over/Under 43.5 points scored
• Time: 1 p.m. ET Sunday (FOX)

UPDATE 10 A.M. ET SUNDAY: With three hours until kickoff, Detroit is -4.5 (-105) at BetMGM. The Lions opened -3.5, went to -4 Monday and -4.5 Saturday night.

It's all Lions on the spread, at 86% of tickets/91% of money. Detroit moneyline is popular, too, taking 71% of tickets/89% of dollars.

The total climbed from 44.5 to 45.5 Monday, then to 46 Tuesday and 47 Wednesday. This morning, it rose another notch to 47.5, with 60% of tickets/68% of cash on the Over.

UPDATE 6 P.M. ET WEDNESDAY: The Lions are up a tick to -4 from a -3.5 opener in TwinSpires' NFL odds Week 13 market. It's all Detroit at the moment, with spread tickets beyond 2.5/1 and spread money 6/1.

"The Lions are the biggest liability of the slate so far. We're not seeing much buyback on the Saints yet," Lucas said.

The total inched from 45 to 45.5, with 54% of early tickets/61% of early money on the Over.

UPDATE 10 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Detroit is having its best season in forever, but still went out and lost on Thanksgiving. After closing as 8.5-point home chalk, the Lions (8-3 SU/7-4 ATS) trailed Green Bay 23-6 at halftime and fell 29-22.

New Orleans (5-6 SU/2-8-1 ATS) dipped below .500 again and remains one of the league's worst spread-covering outfits. The Saints were 1.5-point favorites at Atlanta in Week 12 and lost 24-15.

The Lions-Saints spread is stable at Detroit -3.5 in The SuperBook's NFL odds Week 13 market. The total quickly moved from 43.5 to 44/44.5 this evening.

"New Orleans looks like it's about out of players, and the Saints looked bad today against Atlanta," Michaelson said. "It'll be interesting to see how the public reacts to Detroit after it looked so bad on Thanksgiving. We bumped this from [the lookahead of] 3 to 3.5, with all of New Orleans' injuries."

Denver Broncos vs Houston Texans Odds

• Opening point spread: Texans -3
• Opening moneyline: Texans -185/Broncos +155
• Opening total: Over/Under 45 points scored
• Time: 1 p.m. ET Sunday (CBS)

UPDATE 10 A.M. ET SUNDAY: BetMGM moved the Texans from -3 to -3.5 (-115), then adjusted to -3.5 flat on Monday. Thursday brought a dip to Houston -3 (-115), and the line is now -3 flat.

Denver is a trendy underdog today, with spread tickets and money running 2/1 at BetMGM. Further, on the moneyline, tickets are 6/1-plus and money almost 9/1 on the Broncos.

The total opened at 45 last Sunday, got to 46.5 Monday, 47 Tuesday and 47.5 Wednesday. This morning brought a nudge down to 47, with 63% of tickets/54% of money on the Under.

UPDATE 6 P.M. ET WEDNESDAY: Houston opened -3 at TwinSpires and is now -3.5, while getting 60% of early bets/66% of early cash.

"Bettors are expecting a bounce-back game for Houston," Lucas said, before touching on the Broncos-Texans total. "It's lopsided money on the Over so far this week."

The total climbed from 46 to 47.5, with 70% of bets/89% of cash on the Over.

UPDATE 10 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Denver (6-5 SU/5-5-1 ATS) is arguably the hottest team in the league, riding a 5-0 SU/4-1 ATS streak. In Week 12, the Broncos topped a solid Cleveland outfit 29-12 laying 2 points at home.

Surprising Houston saw its three-game SU run halted in Week 12. The Texans (6-5 SU/5-6 ATS) came up just short to Jacksonville 24-21 catching 1 point at home. Matt Ammendola had his 58-yard field goal come up inches short, banging off the crossbar in the final minute.

Houston is stable 3-point chalk at The SuperBook.

"These are two teams that I think the public is curious about, with Denver on the long winning streak and Houston being so exciting with C.J. Stroud," Michaelson said. "Houston easily could've won today. We felt opening under 3 was inviting the wiseguys to lay the favorite."

Miami Dolphins vs Washington Commanders Odds

• Opening point spread: Dolphins -8.5
• Opening moneyline: Dolphins -450/Commanders +350
• Opening total: Over/Under 49 points scored
• Time: 1 p.m. ET Sunday (FOX)

UPDATE 2 P.M. ET FRIDAY: The Dolphins advanced from -9 to -9.5 Monday at BetMGM and haven't moved since. Ticket count is almost 2/1 and money beyond 9/1 on Miami.

The total opened at 49.5, went to 50.5 Monday, bottomed out at 49 Thursday and is now 49.5. The Under is seeing 58% of tickets/52% of money.

UPDATE 10 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Miami (8-3 SU/7-4 ATS) looked like it would go to halftime with just a 10-6 lead against the reeling New York Jets. But the Dolphins' Jevon Holland picked off a final-seconds Hail Mary and stunningly returned it 99 yards for a touchdown to give Miami a 17-6 lead.

The Dolphins never looked back, rolling to a 34-13 victory as 9.5-point road favorites in a Week 12 Friday game.

Meanwhile, Washington (4-8 SU/5-6-1 ATS) was dealt its third straight loss and fifth in six games. The Commanders traveled to Dallas on Thanksgiving and got trucked 45-10 as 13-point underdogs.

"Washington has just looked awful the last couple of weeks," Michaelson said, before addressing Dolphins-Commanders. "We closed Miami -7 on the lookahead, re-opened -8.5 [tonight], and the market went to -9 soon after opening. This will be a case of how high can we go before we get sharp resistance.

"So many people with a public forum will say the words 'I like Miami in a teaser spot" this week that it will make my brain hurt. We will be rooting for the Washington professional American football team."

Arizona Cardinals vs Pittsburgh Steelers Odds

• Opening point spread: Steelers -6.5
• Opening moneyline: Steelers -250/Cardinals +200
• Opening total: Over/Under 40 points scored
• Time: 1 p.m. ET Sunday (CBS)

UPDATE 10 A.M. ET SUNDAY: Pittsburgh is at -6.5 (-105) in BetMGM's NFL odds Week 13 market. The Steelers opened -6.5 and quickly fell to -6 last Sunday, then went to -5.5 Monday. Friday brought a rebound to Steelers -6/-6.5.

It's two-way spread play with a lean toward Pittsburgh, at 58% of bets/53% of cash.

The total dipped from 40.5 (Under -115) to 40 Monday, got to 41 Tuesday, then went to 40.5/41 Thursday. It's still at 41, with 61% of bets on the Under and money running dead even.

UPDATE 6 P.M. ET WEDNESDAY: This line is working its way down at TwinSpires, moving from Steelers -6.5 to -6 and now -5.5. Pittsburgh is seeing 63% of early spread tickets, while 58% of early spread money is on Arizona.

"Sharp play on the Cards +6.5 and +6," Lucas said.

The total is up to 41 from a 39.5 opener, on two-way play: 53% of tickets on the Under/58% of money on the Over.

UPDATE 10 P.M. ET SUNDAY: For the first time this season, Pittsburgh outyarded a team, and the result was another tight win. The Steelers (7-4 SU and ATS) topped shorthanded Cincinnati 16-10 giving 2 points on the road.

Arizona (2-10 SU/6-6 ATS) had its 3-1 ATS upswing end in blowout fashion in Week 12. The Cardinals tumbled to the L.A. Rams 37-14 as a 3-point home pup.

The spread and total haven't moved tonight on The SuperBook's NFL Week 13 odds board.

Los Angeles Chargers vs New England Patriots Odds

• Opening point spread: Chargers -5.5
• Opening moneyline: Chargers -265/Patriots +215
• Opening total: Over/Under 41.5 points scored
• Time: 1 p.m. ET Sunday (CBS)

UPDATE 2 P.M. ET FRIDAY: Los Angeles shifted from -5.5 to -6.5 to -5.5, then -6 Monday in BetMGM's NFL odds Week 13 market. On Wednesday, the Chargers fell back to -5.5, where the line remains this afternoon.

Spread tickets and money are in the 2.5/1 range on L.A.

The total bounced around throughout the week. BetMGM opened at 42.5, quickly went to 41.5 Sunday night and fell to 40 by Tuesday. Wednesday brought a brief rebound to 41.5, but by late afternoon, the number was at 40.5. And this morning, it fell to 40.

Practically all the early tickets and money are on the Under.

UPDATE 10 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Beyond a shadow of a doubt, New England is a terrible football team. The Patriots (2-9 SU and ATS) benched QB Mac Jones at halftime, but Bailey Zappe couldn't fuel a win against a lousy Giants outfit. New England lost 10-7 as 4.5-point road chalk.

Los Angeles (4-7 SU and ATS) was a playoff team last year, but is struggling to find that form this season. And the Chargers are running out of time. In the Week 12 Sunday nighter, L.A. lost to Baltimore 20-10 as a 3-point home pup.

Indianapolis Colts vs Tennessee Titans Odds

• Opening point spread: Colts -2.5
• Opening moneyline: Colts -135/Titans +115
• Opening total: Over/Under 42 points scored
• Time: 1 p.m. ET Sunday (CBS)

UPDATE 2 P.M. ET FRIDAY: Indy moved from -2 to -2.5 Monday at BetMGM, but by Tuesday afternoon, the Colts were down to -1. The line remains Colts -1 this afternoon on two-way spread play with a lean toward the Titans. Tennessee is drawing 56% of spread bets/52% of spread money.

The total opened at 42.5 and is now 42.5. In between, the number touched 43 a couple times early in the week. The Under is taking 85% of bets/84% of money.

UPDATE 10 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Indianapolis (6-5 SU/7-4 ATS) is on a three-game SU and ATS upswing and is 5-2 ATS in its last seven games. In Week 12, the Colts topped Tampa Bay 27-20 as 2.5-point home favorites.

Tennessee (4-7 SU/5-6 ATS) beat Carolina 17-10 to cash as a 3.5-point home fave. That ended a 1-5 SU and ATS purge for the Titans.

The Colts-Titans total is up a tick tonight to 42.5.

Atlanta Falcons vs New York Jets Odds

• Opening point spread: Falcons -3
• Opening moneyline: Falcons -150/Jets +130
• Opening total: Over/Under 35 points scored
• Time: 1 p.m. ET Sunday (FOX)

UPDATE 2 P.M. ET FRIDAY: Atlanta spent most of the week at -2.5, juiced to either -120/-115/-105 at BetMGM. Then came a Thursday drop to Falcons -1.5 (-120), followed within a few minutes by a rebound to -2.

Spread tickets are running 2/1-plus and spread money almost 4/1 on Atlanta.

The total is down to a tidy 33.5, reaching that mark this morning after opening 35.5 and going to 34 Monday. Ticket count is 5/1 and money 9/1 on the Under.

UPDATE 10 P.M. ET SUNDAY: New York (4-7 SU/4-6-1 ATS) was actually in it against Miami, trailing 10-6 in the waning seconds of the first half. The Jets had the ball at midfield and chucked up a Hail Mary, figuring worst-case scenario, it would still be 10-6 at halftime.

Instead, Miami's Jevon Holland intercepted at the 1-yard line and shockingly ran it back 99 yards for a TD. New York never recovered in a 34-13 loss getting 9.5 points at home.

Atlanta (5-6 SU/3-8 ATS) dispatched New Orleans 24-15 as a 1.5-point home 'dog. That halted Falcons skids of 1-4 SU and 1-8 ATS.

The SuperBook made a modest adjustment on the Falcons-Jets line tonight. Atlanta is now -3 (even) in the NFL odds Week 13 market.

Seattle Seahawks vs Dallas Cowboys Odds

• Opening point spread: Cowboys -7 (-120)
• Opening moneyline: Cowboys -425/Seahawks +325
• Opening total: Over/Under 46 points scored
• Time: 8:15 p.m. ET Thursday (Prime)

UPDATE 4 P.M. ET THURSDAY: Four hours-plus until kickoff, the Cowboys are laying 9.5 points in PointsBet's NFL odds Week 13 market. That's a 2.5-point jump from the opening line of Dallas -7.

Spread ticket count is running 3/1 and spread money almost 4/1 on the Cowboys. And no doubt, Dallas is leading off a lot of moneyline parlays for the public betting masses, who scored big against the bookmakers in NFL Week 12.

The total is up to 47.5 from a 45.5 opener, but it's two-way action: 57% of spread bets are on the over, and 56% of spread money is on the Under.

In player props markets at PointsBet, two Cowboys are getting attention. CeeDee Lamb anytime touchdown (-120) is the most popular bet by ticket count. Tony Pollard Over on rushing yards is taking the most money of all player props, with the Over/Under opening at 60.5 and now up 5 yards to 65.5.

UPDATE 6 P.M. ET WEDNESDAY: TwinSpires Sportsbook pegged the Cowboys -7.5 to open, moved to -8 and is now up to -9. Early spread tickets are running 2/1 and early spread money almost 4/1 on the Cowboys. Seattle heads into this Thursday night matchup in ruts of 1-3 SU and 1-4 ATS.

"The Seahawks are in a freefall right now," TwinSpires director of retail sports Zachary Lucas said. "Public and sharp play on the Cowboys is leading to us needing the Seahawks big on Thursday Night Football."

TwinSpires' total is up 1.5 points 47.5, with 61% of tickets/70% of money on the Over.

UPDATE 10 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Dallas (8-3 SU and ATS) is on a 5-1 SU and ATS surge, winning and cashing in its last three games. In Week 12 on Thanksgiving, the Cowboys crushed the Commanders 45-10 laying 13 points at home.

Seattle (6-5 SU/5-6 ATS) also played on Thanksgiving, but not with nearly as much success. The Seahawks, catching 7 points at home, tumbled to San Francisco 31-13.

Earlier this evening, The SuperBook opened Seahawks-Cowboys at Dallas -7 (-120) and within 90 seconds went to -7.5.

"We closed 7 [flat] on the lookahead, but bumped it up a little bit after Dallas looked so good on Thanksgiving and the Seahawks didn't," SuperBook risk supervisor Chase Michaelson said. "We didn't want to go too high, however, because this could be a potential bounce-back spot for Seattle to compete for a lot longer than it did against San Francisco.

"As is often the case, we'll be rooting against the Cowboys. I'm sure the public will be all over them."
