Of course a favored team is likely to win big and shut down the opponent (see Rams against Falcons, Chiefs against Bills, Dolphins against Chargers).
Contrariwise, an underdog has to score in order to cover, improving the odds of the over coming in (see Pack tonight, Colts against Saints, Colts against Bucs).
This has been a nice trend this year, and the odds by definition are with it, but it can't keep going like this. I wouldn't play it blindly.
