Sunday delivered everything a WANNA player could ask for: outright upsets, favorites that won without covering, and injuries that could reshape next week’s board. Here’s how the key games played out against the spread (ATS).

Buffalo covers; Baltimore loses much more

The Bills dominated Baltimore 36–10, easily covering -3, with the game staying under 55. But the biggest development was Ravens QB Lamar Jackson injuring his throwing thumb on Baltimore’s first offensive snap. Jackson needs surgery and could miss the rest of the season. Backup QB Tyler Huntley also departed with a toe injury. With Jacksonville coming Thursday, Baltimore’s quarterback availability becomes essential homework before making another pick.

Detroit ends Minnesota’s unbeaten run—and barely covers

The Lions won 19–15, rewarding bettors who laid 3.5 points with a half-point ATS cover. RB Jahmyr Gibbs powered the offense with 153 rushing yards, while the total stayed under 45.5. Detroit’s victory came with serious injury concerns: LB Jack Campbell was hospitalized with a neck injury, while S Brian Branch and DE DJ Wonnum exited with concussions. Detroit won Sunday’s matchup, but its defensive health needs watching.

Arizona cashes outright; Dallas disappoints

The Cardinals’ 33–30 overtime win delivered both an outright upset and an ATS victory as 7.5-point underdogs. The teams also cleared 54.5. Dallas backers got neither the win nor the cover. Arizona has concerns despite the celebration: RB Jeremiyah Love aggravated an ankle injury, and WR Michael Wilson played through broken ribs.

Bengals survive, Titans cover

Cincinnati’s 43–36 overtime victory was a win in the standings and a loss for anyone laying 13.5. Tennessee covered with room to spare, while 79 combined points blew past 46.5. New England provided another example of the difference between winning and covering: the Patriots beat Miami 24–19, but Dolphins +7 backers collected.

Denver delivers; other favorites cruise

Denver beat Kansas City 28–24, winning outright as a short underdog and moving atop the AFC West. Jacksonville demolished Indianapolis 42–7, covering -10; Pittsburgh handled Cleveland 27–6, covering -3.5; and the Rams covered -6.5 in a 24–9 victory over the Chargers. Las Vegas upset the Jets 38–33, while Washington covered -5.5 against Philadelphia, 27–10.

Sunday’s strangest winning formula

Tampa Bay beat Atlanta 16–0 without completing a pass, rushing for 324 yards. The Buccaneers covered the short number, and under 43 bettors enjoyed considerably less suspense than anyone waiting for a completed throw.
