Chance of rain in San Francisco Sunday
According to weather forecasts, there is a 58 percent possibility of rain in Santa Clara when the San Francisco 49ers host the Atlanta Falcons at Levi's Stadium Sunday afternoon.
Temperatures in Santa Clara will be in the low-60s and wind is expected to blow across the field at around six miles per hour during game time.
Books opened the struggling 49ers as 4-point home underdogs but that has since moved all the way to +7.5. The total is down to 44 from the opening 45.
Rain, thunderstorms possible in Tampa Bay Sunday
Weather forecasts are expecting a 73 percent possibility of of rain and thunderstorms in Tampa Bay when the Buccaneers host the New York Giants Sunday afternoon.
Temperatures in Tampa will be in the low-80s/high70s during the game with wind expected to blow across the field at around six miles per hour.
The Bucs are presently 2.5-point home dogs, the same number as open, but the total has increased to 50 from the opening number of 47.
Dolphins are a dreadful bet against division foes
The Dan Campbell era got off to a flying start as the Miami Dolphins won back-to-back games for their new hew head coach, but that came to a screeching halt at the New England Patriots last week. The Pats defeated the Dolphins 36-7, but losing within the AFC East, and especially against the spread, is nothing new for the Dolphins.
The Dolphins will visit another AFC East foe, the Buffalo Bills, Sunday afternoon, and have posted a record of 1-5 straight up and 0-6 against the spread in their last six games against division opponents.
The one time the Fish won outright was in Week 13 of last season when they prevailed 16-13 at the New York Jets, but couldn't cover the number as 6.5-point road favorites.
This week, the Dolphins are getting 2.5-point after opening +3.
Saints getting hot for backers in past six weeks
The New Orleans Saints have been a very hot wager of late, posting a record of 4-1-1 against the spread over the course of their last six games.
They managed a push in their 52-49 win as 3-point home favorites over the New York Giants one week ago.
The Saints began the season with a pair of straight up and ATS losses at the Arizona Cardinals and versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but things have gotten better and they're riding a three-game winning streak into Sunday's meeting with the Tennessee Titans.
Books opened the Saints as 7.5-point home favorites with the struggling Titans in town.
Titans on miserable run dating back to 2014
The Tennessee Titans have lost a whopping 16 of their last 17 games overall dating back to last season and have gone an almost-as-dreadful 5-12 against the spread in those games.
Remember when things looked so promising following a great performance from rookie quarterback Marcus Mariota in a 42-14 Week 1 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers? That was the only time the Titans have covered in that stretch, which dates back to Week 7 of last season.
Titans backers (if you're still out there) will look for better results as Mariota and Co. are tabbed as 7.5-point road underdogs at the New Orleans Saints.
