I've read that 80-82% of all straight up winners in the nfl cover the spread regardless of whether they're favs or dogs
safe bet that pack covers here and this week that makes 10 out of 12 of the straight up winners cover the spread (only the lions and kc won and didnt cover)
does it make it easier knowing you just have to pick the winner? probably not
just proves that nfl betting is trying to beat the parity and not the misconception that the lines are razor sharp...if they were as sharp as many say, more dogs would cover without winning
