NFL Week 2 Big Bets Recap: Bettor wins 10k in five minutes; 22-leg parlay hits

For some reason, NFL Week 2 odds didn’t attract nearly the number of major wagers as Week 1. Two of the largest plays were actually for the Thursday night game between the Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins.

A Caesars Sports customer — and a sharp bettor, at that — played the Dolphins -1.5 for $110,000. And another Caesars customer put $110,000 on Dolphins -2.5 closer to kickoff. 

Neither of those went so well, as Miami got rolled at home 31-10.

Let’s dive into more notable wagers and parlay winners from NFL Week 2 and college football Week 3 betting.

I Like Big Bets And I Cannot Lie

At least one large player at Caesars was on the right side of Bills-Dolphins. The bettor put $50,000 on Bills moneyline +118, pulling for a Buffalo outright win. The Bills got there with ease, landing the bettor a $59,000 windfall ($109,000 total payout).

Beyond those Caesars tickets, a couple of the more sizable bets this week came at BetRivers Sportsbook.

· $52,000 on Panthers alternate spread +7.5 (-159) vs. Chargers

· $43,000 on Bears alternate spread +7.5 (-130) vs. Texans

· $40,000 on Packers alternate spread +4 (-143) vs. Colts

All I can say to that first wager is ouch. Carolina lost 26-3 at home and continues to be dreadful. 

As Prime Sportsbook executive chairman Joe Brennan Jr. said Sunday, “We will probably always need Carolina.”

The Bears and Packers bets both got there, although the customers had to pay a premium, buying up to a larger number. Chicago lost to Houston 19-13, but covered the 7.5, so the bettor profited $33,077 (total payout $76,077)

Green Bay beat Indianapolis 16-10, giving the bettor a profit of $27,972 (total payout $67,972).

In college football, a Caesars Sports customer put $37,500 on Texas -35 vs UTSA. Even though Longhorns QB Quinn Ewers (strained abdomen) left early in the second quarter, Arch Manning and Texas didn’t skip a beat, rolling 56-7 to easily…
