It’s hard to believe we’re already in Week 9 of the NFL.
Before you know it, it’ll be Christmas.
PointsBet Sportsbook has created a market for adjusted NFL win totals at the halfway point of the season. This gives you a chance to jump into the pool after watching these teams for two months.[[ad:athena]]
The undefeated Steelers have an adjusted win total of 13.5 with -120 juice to the Over. That means they’re favored to actually win 14 games or more. The Chiefs’ number is also 13.5, but they’re juiced -175 to the Under. So PointsBet believes it’s more likely that the Chiefs finish with 13 wins or less.
Other teams with high adjusted totals are the Seahawks (11.5), Ravens (11.5), Buccaneers (11.5), Saints (10.5), Colts (10.5), Bills (10.5) and Packers (10.5).
The New York Jets (1.5) have the lowest total on the board followed by the Jaguars (2.5), Giants (3.5), Cowboys (4.5), Falcons (4.5), Texans (4.5) and Bengals (4.5).
The San Francisco 49ers are the only team without a listed number, likely because of all the mounting injuries and uncertainties.
Here’s the full list from PointsBet:
Steelers 13.5 O-120 U+100
Chiefs 13.5 O+145 U-175
Seahawks 11.5 O-200 U+165

Saints 10.5 O-105 U-115
Colts 10.5 O+110 U-135
Bills 10.5 O+165 U-200
Packers 10.5 O-110 U-110
Titans 9.5 O-182 U+150
Cardinals 9.5 O-175 U+145
Rams 9.5 O+100 U-120
Browns 9.5 O+150, U-182
Bears 8.5 O-200 U+165

Football Team 5.5 O-105 U-115
Bengals 4.5 O-182 U+150
Texans 4.5 O-175 U+145
Falcons 4.5 O-145 U+120
Cowboys 4.5 O+100 U-120
Giants 3.5 O-170 U+140
Jaguars 2.5 O-170 U+140
Jets 1.5 O-130 U+110
These numbers bode well for my preseason picks on Colts Over 9 wins and Dolphins Over 6 wins. I could potentially set up a two-win middle shot on Miami by going Under 8.5 wins (+100). If they finish with 7 or 8 victories, that’s the nuts.
The other number that caught my eye was the Jets Under 1.5 wins at plus money. Come on. I feel like we’re being baited, but that’s a horrendous football team. Maybe they win once. Twice? Eh.
It’s also very strange seeing the Patriots (6.5) so low. Then again, they’ve lost four straight, Cam Newton has been awful and several defensive players are either hurt, on the trading block or sitting the season out.
