More than 18,000 entries were submitted for Week 10 of the Edge Boost/Average Joe Contest at VSiN, with picks locked in using Circa Sports lines from Friday morning. The consensus data reveals the public's most popular spread and total selections for the weekend.
The top three picks are all chalk, led by the Lions as the largest favorite of the group against the Patriots in Munich. Contest participants are also backing the Chiefs over the Broncos despite Patrick Mahomes' injury scare last week, and the Packers as road favorites against the Vikings.
Minnesota's line moved approximately three points when the team acquired Kirk Cousins to replace Carson Wentz for this week's matchup with Green Bay. The Vikings' offense has struggled mightily, while the Packers' defense has improved as the season progresses and receivers Matthew Golden and Christian Watson have been productive.
Other notable trends include heavy support for the Rams over the Dolphins with Fernando Mendoza making his first NFL start, and the Raiders continuing to profit against weaker opponents. Overs remain popular with contest participants, particularly in the Falcons-Panthers matchup expected to produce points on the fast track at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
