Exchange buyers: which side buyers took (Kalshi, Polymarket (international), Novig, ProphetX)

These are exchange trades, not sportsbook bets. On an exchange every trade has a buyer and a seller, so this shows which side buyers paid for.

How to read these numbers

Kalshi, Polymarket (international) and Novig publish every trade with the side the buyer took. ProphetX carries its trade fills the same way; a line with no captured fill shows dollars matched only. Trades is each side's share of the trades we read since we began reading the market and Money is its share of the dollars buyers paid. Markets with fewer than 10 trades or under $500 traded are left out; markets under 30 trades or $5,000 are labelled Light trading, because a few buyers can move the percentages a long way.

📘 New to betting? Two-minute translation. A moneyline bet is picking who wins, nothing else. In this game, +160 means a $100 bet profits $160 if it wins. The spread is a head start: -7.5 must win by 8+, while +7.5 cashes by losing by 7 or fewer (or winning). The total is combined points by both teams, over or under the books' number. +EV means the price pays better than the market-implied fair odds (vig removed); consistently taking better prices raises your expected return over time.

Chiefs vs Falcons Prediction: The Crowd vs the Math

Ninety-one percent of moneyline tickets are on the Kansas City Chiefs, per the public split. Yet the only price on this board that pays more than the market's own read belongs to the Atlanta Falcons. That gap between crowd and math is the story of this Week 10 game, Sunday at 1:00 PM ET on CBS from Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Falcons vs Chiefs: How They Stack Up

As of publication, the Chiefs are 6-2, second of four in the AFC West and a half game back of the lead. The Falcons are 3-6, fourth of four in the NFC South, yet also a half game back. It is a cross-conference game, so there is no season series in play. The Chiefs average 384.13 total yards and 6.25 yards per play per game over eight games.

The Falcons average 322.67 and 5.46 per game over nine. Turnovers run 0.88 per game for the Chiefs and 1.89 for the Falcons. The run games are level, about 137 yards a game each. Both teams had six days of rest, but the Falcons flew 4,314 miles home from Madrid across six time zones. The Chiefs traveled 676 miles and crossed one.

Players to Watch: Mahomes and Penix

Patrick Mahomes has played all eight games, averaging 254.6 passing yards, 1.8 touchdowns and 0.5 interceptions per game. Michael Penix Jr. has played seven of the Falcons' nine games, averaging 206.3 yards, 1.4 touchdowns and 0.9 interceptions per game. Per game, Mahomes throws for more and gives it away less, which matches the team turnover gap.

Who Is Favored to Win Chiefs vs Falcons?

The Chiefs. The moneyline is a straight bet on who wins. Chiefs -166 at Courtside means a $100 bet profits $60.24. Remove the vig (the sportsbook's built-in cut) and the market reads about 61.8% Chiefs, 38.2% Falcons. The spread is a handicap. Chiefs -3 at -110 (Courtside) needs a win by four or more.

A three-point win is a push (your stake comes back), and a two-point win loses. Falcons +3 at +100 (Hard Rock Bet) cashes on a Falcons win or a loss by two or fewer. The total opened at 45 and has climbed. These are the best prices across the books we track, and shopping moves the math.

Where the Value Is

Break-even is the win rate a price needs to profit over time. Expected value is the average result per bet over many tries. The lone positive is Falcons +163. That edge is thin and lives only at this number. For context, our rating has the Falcons at 41%.

Who Is Out for the Chiefs and Falcons?

The Chiefs are without Kenneth Walker III, Jaylon Moore and Peter Woods, all out. Jaydn Ott and Mansoor Delane are questionable. The Falcons have Zachariah Branch out and Divine Deablo doubtful, and we treat Deablo as not playing. Josh Woods, James Pearce Jr. and Gervon Dexter Sr. are questionable, and Brian Robinson Jr. is on injured reserve. Questionable means uncertain, so check inactives Sunday before kickoff.

The Pick

This is a price play, not a claim that the Falcons are the better team.

The Prediction

The Chiefs win this matchup more often than not, and their per-game yardage and turnover edges explain why. But the run games are level and a three-point spread says the market sees a one-score game. Our Falcons vs Chiefs prediction is Falcons 24, Chiefs 23. That adds to 47, half a point under the 47.5 total, though we skip the total because both sides carry negative expectation. At +163, the times the Falcons win pay enough to justify the ticket. That is the read on this number; the Desk posts a documented free play on days like this, and it lands right below.
