Total has definitely moved up. We opened at 50, now up to 52.5. We saw some people take the hook with Cincinnati."Joey Feazel, head NFL trader at Caesars Sportsbook: "We've seen some movement on the total in this one, most of the action on the over. We re-opened 49.5 and we're now up to 52.5. Not much resistance there until 53. Little more juice on the Falcons, but we've stayed on Bengals -3. We're probably going to need the Falcons in a lower-scoring game. It will be in Madrid, but they have a roof, so weather won't be a factor."Packers at PatriotsGable: "Patriots opened -2.5, this quickly went to -3 and now we're at -3.5. We're seeing some Green Bay money taking the hook. We were at -3 throughout most of the week."Feazel: "Not much movement on the side here. We opened Patriots -3, and we're still there. A little bit of under action, opened 47, down to 46.5. We're seeing far more New England action up to this point, and I'd expect that to continue. Packers haven't drawn a lot of public action lately. I'd anticipate needing the under on Sunday in this one."Bucs at BearsGable: "We opened Bears -6, up to -6.5. Total has ticket up half a point — we opened 47, now it's 47.5. Bears looked extremely formidable on Monday night and now with Jeffery Simmons on the D-line, they're starting to get some bets on them to win NFC and Super Bowl. Tampa will probably need to complete a pass to keep this within the number."Feazel: "One-way action on the Bears so far and I'd expect that to continue. We opened -4.5 and then re-opened -6 after Chicago's Monday night win in Seattle. Bears were able to score on that defense, so that's going to translate into action in this one. Total has stayed pretty steady between 47 and 47.5. Going to need the Bucs and under in this one."Bills at VikingsGable: "Bills laying -3.5, it's been mostly Buffalo money even with the hook. Total opened 46 and has come down to 45. It looks like Carson Wentz will be the starter here for the Vikings."Feazel: "One of those interesting games where the Vikings have been struggling on offense, but the Bills haven't put up much fight on the defensive side. We'll see how Minnesota defense does against Josh Allen. Seeing a little bit more under action, some sharper action at 46.5 and 46. Should be mostly Bills action. Most Vikings games have been going under, but I'm pretty confident we'll need the under."Sharp actionIt's always notable where respected bettors have landed on this week's games. While these prices may not currently be available at all sportsbooks, knowing where sharps have wagered can also be instructive for in-game wagering.Yahoo Sports conversed with several bookmakers across the country, and here is where some sharp action has been (and the numbers it came in at):Falcons-Bengals over 50.5, 51.5Texans-Chargers under 42.5, 41.5Raiders-Texans over 50.5, 51.5Broncos-Panthers under 44.5Dolphins +7NY Giants -2.5Saints -2.5Panthers +3LA Rams-Commanders over 48Vikings +3.5Big betsWe'll be keeping track of six-figure (and larger) Week 9 NFL bets from sportsbooks, as well as if they end up cashing.
