As is the case many weeks, we saw Week 4 injuries cause key movement in Week 5 spreads, with Ravens-Falcons moving nearly 10 points and Eagles-Jaguars moving five points, among others. While those injuries are difficult to anticipate, there are some lines that also move significantly in the market based on performance.
For example, the Packers were 2.5-point favorites on the lookahead line for their home game against the Bears in Week 5, a number that had at least a little potential for the return of Caleb Williams baked in. After an uninspired Green Bay win and a dominant Chicago performance, the line reopened at Bears -2.5, with 3 quickly becoming available in some markets. That remained the case even after Williams was ruled out and Tyson Bagent was named the starter, though the market has finally pushed back, driving the line down to 1.5. Anyone who played the Bears prior to Sunday now has a valuable ticket on Chicago.
Now, we turn to Week 6 lookahead lines prior to the kickoff of Week 5 and try to find value worth attacking early.
Let's get into the games that could offer line value to those who place early bets before Week 5 kicks off.
