We saw the Chargers eliminate a massive number of NFL survivor pool entrants in Week 1, and then the Buccaneers do the same in Week 2 by falling to the Browns after a weather delay of more than two hours. The Chargers also took out a significant chunk of competitors by losing for a second straight time as 6-point favorites or more, something that has only happened once in the modern era. Those who took the chalk with the 49ers had no sweat as all, and neither did those who risked backing the Panthers on the road against a beat-up Falcons team.
Now it's on to Week 3, where the Chiefs will undoubtedly be a popular play on the road facing the woeful Dolphins as double-digit favorites. The next biggest favorite, the 49ers, was used up by many people last week. Does that make the optimal play the likely consensus choice in the Chiefs, or should you be diving deeper down the odds board and taking on the risk that Chargers and Buccaneers backers regretted last week?
