- Home teams are having one of their best seasons in years.
- Yet they still haven’t had a winning record ATS since 2017.
Home teams often have the better NFL odds to win, and 2022 has been no exception; the home team has been favored in approximately 60% of games. But in the past 20 seasons, home teams haven’t been very successful against the spread.
In fact, in the past 20 seasons, home teams have finished with winning records ATS only five times. The last time that happened was in 2017.
But that could change in 2022.
