AS INJURIES RACK UP IN THE NFL AHEAD OF WEEK 3, BETTING ODDS IMPACTED FOR SUPER BOWL AND MORE, ACCORDING TO THELINES.COM

Published

Injuries to key players — an inescapable part of any NFL season — are beginning to have a significant effect on the game odds ahead of the NFL’s third week, according to TheLines, which tracks odds in U.S. regulated sports betting markets. In fact, at least 15 starters or key role players left games early on Sunday alone, and that is reverberating through Week 3’s lines.

“Injuries are a key component to any in-season betting line, but it seems like we’ve had a season’s worth of key injuries already,” said Brett Collson, lead analyst for TheLines.com. “This should be a particularly interesting week with so many star players falling on Sunday. Week 3’s lines have the potential to move significantly as we learn more about the severity of each injury.”

The San Francisco 49ers, who have suffered multiple injuries to star players during their 1-1 start to the season, are a prime example. The reigning NFC champions opened the season as a consensus +900 pick to win the Super Bowl, one of three betting favorites and the top pick among NFC teams. But after injuries to stars George Kittle, Jimmy Garoppolo, Raheem Mostert, and Nick Bosa, the odds have shifted, even after cruising to a 31-13 win Sunday over the New York Jets.

As of Monday morning, the 49ers were being offered as low as +2500 by BetMGM to win the Super Bowl. And a consensus of the nation’s largest legal online sportsbooks — including FanDuel, DraftKings, PointsBet, SugarHouse, and BetMGM — places the 49ers at +2000, which moves them into the longshot category. For Week 3, San Francisco sits as a consensus 4.5-point favorite in its road game against the New York Giants — who themselves have suffered injuries to Saquan Barkley and Sterling Shepard — after opening as a 7-point favorite.

The consensus point spreads, as of Sept. 21, for the the Week 3 slate:

  • Miami Dolphins at Jacksonville Jaguars (-2.5); over/under 48
  • Chicago Bears at Atlanta Falcons (-3); over/under 46
  • Cincinnati Bengals at Philadelphia Eagles (-6.5); over/under 45
  • Houston Texans at Pittsburgh Steelers (-5.5); over/under 47
  • Las Vegas Raiders at New England Patriots (-5.5); over/under 47.5

  • Tennessee Titans (-2.5) at Minnesota Vikings; over/under 47
  • Washington Football Team at Cleveland Browns (-6.5); over/under 44.5
  • Carolina Panthers at Los Angeles Chargers (-6.5); over/under 44.5
  • New York Jets at Indianapolis Colts (-9.5); over/under 44.5
  • Dallas Cowboys at Seattle Seahawks (-4.5); over/under 55.5
  • Detroit Lions at Arizona Cardinals (-6); over/under 54
  • Tampa Bay Buccaneers (-6) at Denver Broncos; over/under 43.5
  • Green Bay Packers at New Orleans Saints (-4.5 ); over/under N/A
  • Kansas City Chiefs at Baltimore Ravens (-2.5); over/under N/A

Be #GiftSmart: Scratch the Idea of Gifting Scratch & Win Tickets to Kids

BCLC reminds adults to gift responsibly this holiday season

With the holiday season in full swing, BCLC is reminding British Columbians to gift responsibly and scratch lottery products from their shopping lists for kids.

“Scratch & Win tickets can make great stocking stuffers for the adults in your life, but they’re not for kids,” said Ryan McCarthy, BCLC’s Director of Player Health. “The research shows that children who have early encounters with gambling are four times more likely to develop riskier gambling behaviour as they grow up. While people are out shopping for those last-minute gifts, BCLC wants adults to be aware of the potential risks associated with gifting lottery products to children and to consider safer alternatives.”

While Scratch & Win tickets are among the most common ways kids can be introduced to gambling, children are increasingly exposed to various online forms, such as gambling streams.

“With the convergence of gaming and gambling, youth are becoming more exposed to gambling content in online spaces like streaming sites, where creators are able to live-stream their own gambling, usually while playing online slots and instant games,” said Dr. Luke Clark, Director for Gambling Research at UBC. “Our research at the UBC Centre for Gambling shows that a higher frequency of watching online gambling streams is associated with a more positive attitude towards gambling and a high intention to gamble in the future.”

In B.C., it is illegal to sell lottery products to anyone under the age of 19 and BCLC encourages adults to have conversations with the kids in their lives about the risks associated with gambling.

“Open and honest conversations are crucial when it comes to navigating childhood exposure to gambling,” said McCarthy, who shared the following tips to adults:

  • Monitor for gambling-related lifestyle changes. For example, developing a positive attitude towards gambling or a preoccupation with video games or streaming sites.
  • Be a positive role model. Exhibit safer gambling behaviour and talk about the risks.
  • Limit exposure. Monitor kids’ online activities and discourage engagement with gambling content. Explain how gambling is based on chance.
