That&#8217;s especially true if you were a Falcons backer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What looked like a surefire loss with under two minutes remaining quickly turned into a tie game as the fourth quarter expired thanks to magic from Kirk Cousins and a 52-yard kick. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cousins&#8217; wizardry continued into overtime, helping the Falcons win, cover and move into first place in the NFC South in the highest-scoring TNF game of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Will any game top the 66 points the Falcons and Buccaneers combined for? That&#8217;s a big ask but there are several large totals, including a 50 on the board as of Friday afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some quick betting notes before we dive into everything you could possibly want to bet on in Week 5:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Highest total: Cardinals vs. 49ers (50)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Biggest spread: 49ers (-7); Seahawks (-7) vs. Giants<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Three teams have odds of +200 or longer to win (Cardinals, Giants, Saints)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Lines and odds are listed as of 3:10 p.m. ET on Oct. 4.
