NFL Moneylines

This bet relates to an individual NFL game. The sportsbooks will analyze both teams and then release moneyline odds on the likelihood of each team winning. You will generally see a favorite and an underdog when looking at the NFL latest line. For example, you might see the New Orleans Saints priced at -278 in the NFL betting lines for their game against Atlanta, with the Falcons as the +220 underdogs.

If you see a minus symbol, it tells you the amount you need to wager in order to win $100. A $278 bet at -278 would earn you a $100 profit if successful. In this instance, a $20 bet on New Orleans would net you $7.19 if it won, whereas a $20 bet on Atlanta would earn you a $44 profit. That tells you that the Saints are heavy favorites.

These odds can also move in the build-up to a game. If a flurry of bets were to be placed on the Falcons, the odds would drop on Atlanta winning the game. That is because the sportsbooks like to spread their risk, so they will offer customers an incentive to bet upon the other team. Sharp bettors like to capitalize on these line moves. The odds would also change if, for example, the New Orleans starting quarterback were to suffer an injury in midweek. For that reason, the NFL odds on games today often look different to the odds released at the start of the week.

NFL Point Spreads

This is the most popular way to bet on football. The NFL odds compilers will give the supposedly stronger team a points handicap in order to even things up. If we stick with the above example, you would expect to see the Saints as 6.5-point favorites in the football spread betting lines. That means you could bet on either New Orleans -6.5 or Atlanta +6.5. The NFL odds on each outcome would be -110, or they could be as generous as -105 if you bet with the best sports betting sites that offer reduced juice on NFL. Reduced juice, finding the best sportsbook promos (such as DraftKings promo codeFanDuel promo codebet365 bonus code, or Betway promo code), and getting a sportsbook referral bonus are some of the best ways to make extra profit (and make sure you sign up at the fastest payout sportsbook to bank your profit).

If you bet on the Saints, they would need to win by seven or more points in order for your bet to pay off. You would then earn a significantly higher profit than if you had bet the moneyline. If you were to bet on the Falcons, your bet would be successful if they either won the game or lost by no more than 6 points. You would earn a smaller profit than if you bet on the moneyline, but you would have a better chance of winning.

Many of the best sportsbooks wait for the Las Vegas football odds before releasing their NFL bet lines, but some set early lines themselves, particularly when it comes to NFL playoff spreads and Super Bowl odds. The Super Bowl is one of the biggest wagering events of the year, and Week 1 is also exceptionally popular after the long off-season, so you will find really competitive odds on those games - not to mention lots of Super Bowl betting promos and football betting promos.

You should also be able to find alternative point spreads on various NFL game today action. For example, let's say the Las Vegas Raiders are playing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Las vegas is the 1.5-point favorite, with odds of -110 on Las Vegas -1.5 and -110 on Tampa Bay +1.5. Some sites that offer betting on today game NFL markets will offer an alternative line, which skews the odds in different directions.

You might believe that the Raiders will win the game comfortably. You could then bet on Las Vegas -2.5 or Las Vegas -3.5 and receive more attractive odds. You might alternatively think that the Bucs will come close, but you aren't quite comfortable with a 1.5-point line. You might then be able to bet on Tampa Bay +2.5 instead of Tampa Bay +1.5. You would not receive such good odds, but your wager would stand a better chance of paying off. Many sportsbooks also allow you to buy or sell half points or full points on spreads, which is a similar prospect.

NFL Totals

This is another really popular NFL bet line. Many bettors like these lines on an NFL today game, because you are not required to predict which team will win or cover the point spread. You simply have to determine whether it will be a high-scoring game or a low-scoring encounter.

The Las Vegas odds compilers will set a total points line, and you can bet on over or under. That is why this bet is often referred to as an NFL over under wager. It might be 48.5 points, and you can typically find -110 on over and -110 on under.

The result is determined by adding the home team’s score and the away team’s score. Just like with the point spread, NFL totals lines will change in the build-up to a game depending on how popular each option is among bettors. If the majority of people bet on over, the total points line will increase to 49.5 or 50.5. This is especially true with Super Bowl lines due to the sheer volume of wagers they attract. You will also see live NFL odds at some sportsbooks, allowing you to bet in-play as the action develops. The totals line will move accordingly throughout the game.

NFL Prop Bets

Proposition bets focus on a particular event within a game, but do not necessarily relate to the result. Prop betting sites will post odds on how many yards a QB will throw, or whether there will be a safety in a game. Super Bowl prop betting odds, especially Super Bowl player props, are extremely popular. You can find on Super Bowl halftime show props, coin toss odds, national anthem odds, opening kickoff odds, the Gatorade colour odds, and Super Bowl TD scorer odds and much more.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I bet on NFL games?

You can bet on NFL games at every single online sportsbook due to the popularity of pro football. However, you should use our sportsbook reviews section to find safe, reliable, trustworthy sportsbooks and avoid the shady operators found on our blacklist.

How does NFL point spread work?

The NFL line for spread betting is set by odds compilers after they determine which team has the best chance of winning the game. They give the stronger team a handicap to level the playing field. It could be 1.5 points or it could be 29.5 points, depending on the gulf in quality between the two teams. You then bet on either team to cover the spread.

What are the Vegas odds for NFL football?

Las Vegas NFL odds are set by the big sportsbooks in Nevada. They were often featured on TV when analysts previewed games, as Nevada was the only state with legal sports wagering. However, many more states have now legalized sports betting after the Supreme Court struck down a federal ban in 2018, so Vegas NFL odds no longer receive the same level of prominence. However, the odds compilers in Vegas are very experienced and respected, so some betting sites wait for those lines to be published before following suit.

What is the line on NFL?

The line typically refers to the point spread pine set by the sportsbooks. It allows you to bet on either team covering the spread.

How do NFL odds work?

If you are using American odds, they either start with a plus or a minus. If you see a plus, it tells you how much you stand to win from a $100 bet. If you see a minus, it refers to the amount you need to wager in order to win $100.
