The 2020 NFL season has gone remarkably smooth considering it has been played during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic that has been wrecking havoc throughout the country.

There are now only three weeks left in the regular season, which means there are only three full slates remaining for NFL bettors. Here is a look at the betting trends heading into Week 15.

“All eyes this Sunday will be on the Mercedes-Benz Superdome with the Chiefs visiting the Saints. We’ve seen money on both sides but at kickoff I expect that the book will need the Saints to cover”

– Jason Scott, VP Trading for BetMGM.
