With varying degrees of motivation in Week 18, several games have seen significant line movement.
The point spreads on Chiefs-Broncos, Packers-Lions, Colts-Jaguars and Panthers-Buccaneers had each moved six or more points off the previous week's number as of Wednesday.
• The Chiefs went from 3-point to 10-point favorites over the Broncos in one of the Saturday night games. Denver has been eliminated from playoff contention, while Kansas City must win Saturday and have the Titans lose to the Texans to have a chance at the No. 1 overall seed in the AFC.
• The Packers, who have clinched the No. 1 seed in the NFC, went from 11-point to 2-point favorites over the Lions.
• The Colts were 15.5-point favorites over the Jaguars on Wednesday, after being only 8.5-point favorites last week. Indianapolis can clinch a playoff berth with a win.
• The Buccaneers have gone from 16.5-point favorites to 8-point favorites over the Panthers.
Adam Pullen, assistant director of trading at Caesars Sportsbook, says he treats Week 18 a little like the preseason and pointed to the Cowboys-Eagles game Saturday as a challenge. Dallas was listed as a 1.5-point favorite Sunday, but the line had grown to Cowboys -7.5 as of Wednesday.
"There just seems to be no reason for the Eagles to play their start players," Pullen said in a company release. "But [coach Nick] Sirianni seems to be a bit of a wild card, so we'll see what he does. The line could go a little higher with all the uncertainty there."
