Fantasy Football: 5 Historical Vegas Trends You Should Know for Week 8

Start Mark Ingram as a Favorite

The New Orleans Saints are favored by nine points at home this weekend versus the Chicago Bears. That large spread should lead to great production from Mark Ingram.

Over the past two and a half seasons, in games where the Saints were favored, Ingram has averaged about 4.5 more half-PPR points per game. Ingram has fared even better when the spread has reached a touchdown or higher.

It's also worth noting that Saints games have eclipsed the total in 4 out of 6 games. Ingram has been dominating since the Saints traded away Adrian Peterson and that should continue this weekend.

He is priced at $7,200 on FanDuel, which ranks seventh among running backs. He is worth playing in all formats.
