NFL Week 4 Lookahead Lines And 2024 Market Moves
In seasons past, I’ve provided content and insight on NFL betting including NFL lookahead lines and market moves. Now the 2024 NFL Week 4 lookahead lines with matchups, schedules and odds are out to guide us to the bookmakers information ahead of the current week’s games. The odds and information can help you in identifying potential value in the betting market while not overreacting to recent results or any NFL teams good or bad performance in a particular week. That is fairly common in the betting marketplace, as many bettors often fall victim to ‘recency bias’, and recall and react to what they saw most recently.
Our NFL Week 1 underdog picks produced a 3-0 Sunday sweep to kickoff the 2024 season with winners on the Jacksonville Jaguars, Indianapolis Colts and Dallas Cowboys outright before the NY Jets lost Monday night. The Week 2 underdog picks were better going 4-1-1 ATS with another 4-1 ATS on early week opinions like the Las Vegas Raiders (+8.5) , who pulled off the biggest upset of the week winning 26-23 at Baltimore. Those are not part of the overall record, which is 7-2 ATS this season picking only NFL underdogs and greater than 57% the past 7+ seasons. That includes a record 70% season going 28-12 ATS in 2021.

After reviewing the current week’s odds, games and my NFL content and underdog picks, monitor the market moves each week and advance lookahead lines and compare as the actual week’s betting lines as provided by the leading online sportsbooks following each week’s games. For example, in Fairways Football Forecast Week 2 underdog picks, I mentioned you could and should bet the Vikings +3.5 on the lookahead line at home against the Houston Texans. It even hit +4 at the SuperBook. Now after last week’s results, the Vikings are +2.5 at home, which I have still made an NFL underdog pick.
