PrintThe LVH’s NFL Supercontest Week 2 deadline expired Saturday afternoon, and shortly after, the Superbook released the consensus picks for the 16 games on the schedule.
The consensus didn’t fare well in Week 1, as the most popular picks—Saints, Lions, 49ers, Patriots and Eagles—finished 1-4 ATS.
The most commonly selected team in Week 2? The Ravens, who were taken 227 times. Only 29 out of a record 745 participants chose the Packers, who easily covered Thursday night against the Bears as 6-point favorites.
Other popular picks: Cowboys (226), 49ers (215), Patriots (178) and Falcons (157).
Below is a full listing of the consensus picks. Be sure to check out Football Contest Proxy and @VegasMatty, who provides excellent coverage throughout the event. Ditto on Dave Tuley, who operates View From Vegas and writes a weekly ESPN Insider column.
