There's a tendency among football enthusiasts to believe that the defense has an advantage over the offensive units in the early part of the season. Offenses tend to take a little bit of time to find a rhythm and get on the same page.
Using this concept as a springboard, if we were to look at those games which the oddsmakers believed would be low-scoring to begin with, we should see plenty of low-scoring games.
But as often happens, things that seem to make sense don't always pan out that way in the sports betting world.
