Two kinds of openers show up in Week 9. Lookahead lines posted before Sunday's games had Baltimore favored by about 4.5 at home; once Jackson left Sunday's game after one play, books reopened the game at Jaguars -7.5 and it closed 9.5, a swing of 14 points, before Jacksonville won 33-10.
The Texans moved a full point or more toward Houston against a Chargers team that is 0-7, and the 49ers went from 8.5 to 9.5 while reports say Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel could return from the bye.
The Bills opened at 3 and are 3.5 at all six books now, which moves Buffalo off 3, the most common margin in the NFL.
The Giants went from 2.5 to 3.5 in Philadelphia, the Rams came in from 6 to 4.5 in Washington, Seattle dropped from 11 to 8.5 against Arizona, and the Madrid total climbed 3 points to 52.5.
Expert NFL picks context: Thursday's result and three games to watch
Thursday night: Jaguars 33, Ravens 10. Jacksonville (6-2) closed as a 9.5-point favorite and covered by 13.5 against a Baltimore team (4-5) starting third-string quarterback Joe Fagnano with Lamar Jackson on injured reserve and Tyler Huntley out.
The total closed 40 to 40.5 and the game went over. Every score against the closing line goes into our Week 9 recap on Tuesday; last week's recap is up now.
Packers at Patriots opened at New England -2.5 and is New England -3.5 at all six books, with the FanDuel moneyline at -166, after a week in which 71% of the bets went on Green Bay and the line moved the other way.
The total has dipped from 47.5 to 44.5 to 45.5. A game between two 5-3 teams with playoff odds of 53% and 76% carries weight for the NFC and AFC wild-card races.
The Bears opened 6-point favorites and are 6.5 at most books after the win in Seattle, with BetRivers the low number at 5.5.
The Monday night opener was Bills -3 and it is 3.5 at all six books now. The total opened at 46.5 and sits at 44.5 to 45 after Kyler Murray was ruled out with a hamstring strain; Carson Wentz starts for Minnesota.
