Monday was a day for catching up some sleep after a long sports betting weekend, and also some chores around the Tuley’s Takes home office.
It was also spent working on our handicapping for next weekend’s football games and taking our son, Maddux, to his Las Vegas Youth Orchestra practice. It unfortunately didn’t include playoff baseball as the Guardians-Yankees Game 5 was rained out. We did win our Best Bet (our only bet) of the day on the Broncos-Chargers Under 45.5. For what happened there, check out the “Monday night recap” story HERE that I post after each MNF game, along with my updated NFL betting stats. You can also find those below as they’re part of this daily column, Let’s also peek into Contest Corner for updates on Circa Survivor as well as the leaderboards for the Circa Sports Million and Westgate SuperContest.Monday’s Recaps
NFL: Chargers beat Broncos 19-16 on an injured Dustin Hopkins' 39-yard FG in OT. The ViewFromVegas is the Chargers did NOT cover after closing as 4-point home favorites (game stayed well Under the betting total of 45.5 points).
More NFL: Faves/dogs split 7-7 SU and ATS in Week 6; faves 54-37-1 SU on season w/ 2 PKs, but dogs lead 52-37-3 ATS (58.4%); home teams 8-6 SU and ATS, lead 49-42-1 SU, but road teams lead 47-42-3 ATS (52.8%); Unders lead 56-37-1 (60.2%), primetime Unders 13-6 (68.4%).
