The San Francisco 49ers proved to be a good choice for proline players

The San Francisco 49ers were a solid proline bet on Sunday.

San Francisco (2-2) got back to .500 with a 30-13 win over the New England Patriots (1-3). According to the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corp. 82 percent of bettors picked the 49ers to win, while 66 percent put them at -10.5.

And 80 percent of bettors correctly guessed the Cincinnati Bengals' 34-24 win over the Carolina Panthers, while 73 percent correctly guessed the Houston Texans' 24-20 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. In addition, 71 percent chose the Minnesota Vikings' 31:29 victory over the Green Bay Packers.

Meanwhile, just 18 percent of bettors backed the Denver Broncos' 10-9 decision over the New York Jets.

On Sunday evening, 35 percent of bets successfully supported the Baltimore Ravens' 35-10 victory over the Buffalo Bills. And 39 percent chose Baltimore at -2.5.

However, only 17 percent of players had Derrick Henry as their first touchdown scorer, which was the second highest number (James Cook at 18 percent). Ty Johnson was the only Buffalo player to score a TD, accounting for less than one percent of the Bills' total ever.

The Major League Baseball postseason has begun and the Los Angeles Dodgers, Philadelphia Phillies and New York Yankees are the top playoff futures picks to win the World Series overall.

One Proline retail customer earned $11,514 with a $2 bet on an eight-game soccer game, while another won $4,876.50 with a $10 bet on a six-game soccer game. Meanwhile, one digital player won $3,915.76 after betting $5 on an eight-leg parlay, while another won $1,035.33 from a $2 bet on a 12-leg parlay.
