The Biggest Upset: Cardinals 18, Rams 16
Arizona beat Los Angeles on a time-expiring field goal, 18-16, despite never reaching the end zone, in a game the Rams were favoured to win by around 13 points. The Rams lost kicker Blake Grupe to a knee injury during the game, which led them to go for two after a touchdown and to use punter Ethan Evans on an extra point.
The Cardinals' defence, which had allowed at least 30 points in four straight games, held the Rams to 16. You can see how markets react to results like this on Sportsbet.io's in-play American football page once Week 7 gets underway.
Six Underdogs Win Outright
The Cardinals weren't alone. Denver beat Seattle 17-14 in overtime as a three-point home underdog on Wil Lutz's 53-yard field goal after an interception on Seattle's first overtime drive. Houston won 34-31 at Wembley as a small underdog against Jacksonville, which had held every opponent to 20 points or fewer before the game. Cleveland beat Baltimore 13-10 on Andre Szmyt's 37-yard field goal as time expired, helped by a fourth-quarter Derrick Henry fumble, and are in first place in the AFC North after Week 6 for the first time in 12 years.
Carolina beat Philadelphia 25-14 with Jalen Hurts on injured reserve and Tanner McKee at quarterback, and Tennessee, previously winless alongside the Chargers and Dolphins, finally won, 26-20 at Indianapolis as a seven-point underdog.
Spread Watch: Who Covered
Several favourites won without covering. New England beat the Jets by seven, a point short of 7.5, and Buffalo beat Las Vegas 33-30 as a favourite of 4.5 to 6, with the Raiders tying the game with eight minutes left. By contrast, Kansas City covered easily, winning by 16 as an 8.5-point favourite, Chicago covered 3 with a win by eight in Caleb Williams' return, Green Bay covered a short number with a 23-13 win over Dallas, and Pittsburgh covered a field-goal spread in overtime.

Standouts and Storylines
Kenneth Walker rushed for 128 yards and two touchdowns for the Chiefs, who ended a three-game sackless streak when Ashton Gillotte took down Justin Herbert in the third quarter. The Chargers fell to 0-6, the only winless team that played this week. Josh Allen completed 23 of 33 for 255 yards and two touchdowns for the Bills, who scored on six of their first seven possessions. Jacksonville's Travis Hunter had four catches for 59 yards and an interception at Wembley, and Cleveland's Audric Estime, who began the week on Minnesota's practice squad, scored the touchdown that set up the winning kick.
What's Next: Week 7 Begins Thursday
Week 7 begins on Thursday 22 October, and the Chiefs, Vikings and, if they win Monday, 49ers are the league's remaining unbeaten teams. The NFL outrights page lists season-long markets such as division winners, and the upcoming matches page shows what's listed as lines are released. Check how overtime and ties settle in the American football betting rules, since two of this week's games went to extra time.
Betting Responsibly Through the NFL Season
A week with six outright underdog winners can tempt you to chase bigger underdog prices or to double down after a favourite fails to cover. Treat every result above as one data point among many, not a signal to overhaul your whole approach, and set your budget for each week's card before Thursday's kickoff rather than adjusting it as Sunday's results come in.
Account tools such as deposit limits, loss limits, and time-outs help keep a full week of NFL action within the budget you set for it. Sportsbet.io's responsible gambling page explains how to set these up. Betting should stay entertainment, not a way to chase back a loss from an earlier week.
