The Kansas City Chiefs aren’t underdogs very often. So when it happens, bettors take notice.
And it’s happening in NFL Week 11 odds.
Kansas City is a 2-point road ‘dog against the Buffalo Bills in a Sunday showdown. More attractive to the public betting masses: taking the Chiefs on the moneyline at +110 for a better payout, banking on Patrick Mahomes & Co. just winning the game outright.
“How often can you get the Chiefs at plus money? We’re gonna see a lot of people take the moneyline on the Chiefs,” Caesars Sports head of football trading Joey Feazel said.
Oddsmakers and sharp bettors serve up their insights on Chiefs vs. Bills and a handful of other games, as we dive into NFL Week 11 betting nuggets.
Covering The Number
Kansas City is 9-0 straight up (SU) and a more middling 5-4 against the spread (ATS). The Chiefs barely remained unbeaten in Week 10, edging Denver 16-14 by blocking a field goal as time expired. K.C. didn’t cover as a 7.5-point home favorite and enters this week on an 0-3 ATS skid.
Buffalo (8-2 SU/6-4 ATS) is on a five-game win streak, covering in four of those games. In Week 10, the Bills beat Indianapolis 30-20 as 4.5-point road favorites.
Caesars opened the Bills -1.5 and got out to -2.5 on Sunday night. But as of late Wednesday night, Buffalo was at -2 (-105).
“So far, the Chiefs are getting the majority of the early money, which isn’t a surprise,” Feazel said. “They’re 9-0, not covering games, not beating what the market perceives them to be. But they’re still certainly the team to beat.”
Regardless of whether Caesars needs the Bills, this 4:25 p.m. ET Sunday kickoff will see plenty of tickets and money on both sides.
“It’s gonna be up there. All eyes are on this matchup. I expect this to be a very large-action game,” Feazel said.
