What the data says

New England Patriots at Miami Dolphins shows a meaningful bet/money divergence on the spread market — not the biggest split on the slate, but worth a look. 71.0% of bets are on New England Patriots -7.5 while only 58.0% of dollars are on the same side — a 13.0-point gap.

A 10 to 20-point gap is the band where the data starts to mean something but doesn't yet scream. It usually means a handful of larger bets landed on Miami Dolphins +7.5 without the public catching on yet, or the public is leaning on a side that the market doesn't fully respect. Either way, the money side here is Miami Dolphins +7.5, and the price reflects what the books think of that lean.

Frequently asked questions

What does it mean that New England Patriots -7.5 has 71.0% of bets but 58.0% of the money?

The ticket count and the dollar count are measuring different bettors. A 13.0-point gap means the average wager on New England Patriots -7.5 is smaller than the average wager on the other side — a lot of small bets one way, fewer and larger ones the other. That is the footprint sharper money usually leaves.

How big does a bet/money gap have to be to matter in the NFL?

On NFL spreads the median gap between a side's share of tickets and its share of dollars is about 2 points, a quarter of games clear 9, and one in ten clears 22. So a gap in the teens is already a top-quarter event here, where the same number on a college board would be ordinary.

What is sharp money?

Sharp money is wagering from sophisticated, high-volume bettors. It shows up as a money percentage that trails the bet percentage on the popular side — many small tickets one way, fewer and larger ones the other. On an NFL spread the typical gap is only about 2 points and one game in ten clears 22, so a double-digit gap is the part worth noticing. See our methodology →
