The NFL Preseason came to a close on Sunday after 49 games and three weeks of action.
Between the Ravens winning their 23rd consecutive preseason game straight up, the Seahawks naming Geno Smith their starter and many other storylines… home teams in the preseason are a topic to take a gander at.
In 2022, home teams finished 30-18 (62.5%) straight up and 28-17-3 (62.2%) against the spread in the preseason. A $100 bettor blindly taking home teams would have been up $816, the most for a single preseason in Bet Labs (since 2004).
Not only did home teams outperform expectations this year, but the results were drastic.
