NFL betting lines are relatively straightforward to read. Generally, the underdog is represents by a plus (+) sign and the number that follows shows how much a bettor will make if they place a $100 wager and the team wins.

In contrast, the favorite features a minus (-) sign followed by a number that indicated how much a bettor must put down to win back $100if the team wins.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

What does spread mean in NFL betting?<\/h3>\n <\/div>\n
\n
Point spread betting refers to two NFL teams where one is significantly better than the other. In this case, the NFL betting odds of the better team are often not excellent. As a result, the NFL betting site adds handicaps to the underdog team, bringing the two closer together and improving the odds.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n

Is NFL Betting Legal in the US?<\/h2>\n
Yes. However, NFL betting is only legal in some US states.<\/p>\n
In 2018, the United States Supreme Court repealed PASPA, opening the floor for states to legalize sports betting individually. Since then, over 30 states have signed legislation legalizing sports wagering, making it possible for bettors in those states to wager on the NFL. However, while NFL betting is legal in these states, it remains illegal in those states that have yet to legalize sports betting.<\/p>\n
Additionally, when placing wagers in states that permit sports betting, it is recommended to check first what sort of wagering is permitted. For instance, not all states offer online sports betting and only offer land-based sportsbooks.<\/p>\n
Our Criteria for Choosing a Top NFL Betting Site<\/h2>\n
When selecting the best NFL betting sites, our experts consider several factors to ensure these sportsbooks offer an exceptional wagering experience. Below we look at some of the criteria they measure these sites against.<\/p>\n
Range of NFL Bets<\/h3>\n
Firstly, when choosing a betting site, one of the first elements to consider is the range of NFL betting lines offered. While placing a moneyline or two is great, having other options like spreads, totals, parlays, futures, and props adds to the fun and provides more ways to win.<\/p>\n
Choice of NFL Events<\/h3>\n
Another aspect to look into is the coverage of NFL events. We recommend seeking out an NFL betting site that covers as many events as possible, from the regular season and Wildcard round to the divisional and conference championships, not forgetting the Superbowl.<\/p>\n
Bonus & Promotions<\/h3>\n
Generally, the best NFL betting sites offer new and existing bettors a selection of promotions and bonuses that boost their bankrolls and make it easier to try new betting styles. While these rewards may seem generous, we recommend looking at the bonus terms and conditions before signing up for the promo. For instance, not all bonus funds or free bets apply to NFL games.<\/p>\n
Safety & Security<\/h3>\n
When signing up with an NFL betting site, you’ll need to input personal information to create your account and banking details to fund it. In light of this, we recommend reviewing the site’s security measures. For instance, a sportsbook that uses SSL encryption will keep your data secure and protected against hackers.<\/p>\n
Payment Methods<\/h3>\n
The best NFL betting sites make it easy for bettors to deposit and withdraw funds from their accounts by offering a selection of payment methods. So, look for a sportsbook that provides diverse banking options and ensure that the fees attached to these methods aren’t too high.<\/p>\n
Customer Support<\/h3>\n
Finally, reviewing the level of customer support an online sportsbook provides is essential. For example, an NFL betting site that only accepts email correspondence or offers a ticketing system may take days to attend to your query. However, a sportsbook with a 24-hour phone inline or a live chat option can provide an instant resolution.<\/p>\n
How to Sign Up and Bet on NFL<\/h2>\n
In most instances, NFL betting sites are relatively straightforward to navigate. However, new bettors may need a hand with the registration process. But by following the quick steps below, bettors can easily sign up, fund their accounts, and start wagering.<\/p>\n
Step One – Register with BetMGM<\/h3>\n
Begin by launching the BetMGM website. Then, select the state you are located in. Next, click the gold \u201cRegister\u201d button on the top right of the home page. Lastly, complete the registration form that opens before hitting the \u201cContinue\u201d button.<\/p>\n $\"BetMGM$ \n
Step Two – Verify Your Account<\/h3>\n
Following registration, you\u2019ll need to verify your BetMGM account. So, open your email inbox and the mail sent to you by the sportsbook. Then, click the link inside to verify your new account before signing back into BetMGM with your new username and password.<\/p>\n
Step Three – Fund Your Account<\/h3>\n
The next step is to deposit funds into your BetMGM account. So, click the green \u201cDeposit\u201d button on the top right of the home page (this will only come up when you are signed in). Then select your preferred payment method from the options provided and type in the amount you wish to deposit. Don\u2019t forget to input your bonus promo code before clicking \u201cdeposit.\u201d Finally, follow the prompts to complete your payment.<\/p>\n $\"BetMGM$ \n
Step Four – Start Wagering<\/h3>\n
Once your funds reflect in your BetMGM account, it\u2019s time to start the fun part – wagering. So head to the sportsbook tab and find the NFL game you want to wager on. Then, type in your bet amount onto the bet slip on the right of the screen. Lastly, hit \u201cPlace Bet.\u201d<\/p>\n $\"BetMGM$ \n
How NFL Betting Works<\/h2>\n
NFL betting refers to wagering on the final results of an NFL game, conference, or season. However, NFL wagering also includes options like prop bets that focus on occurrences throughout the game, like which player scores the first touchdown, parlays, totals, and spreads. Gaining an edge in such markets can be done by researching NFL player stats<\/a> to work out the numbers.<\/p>\n
In order to place wagers like this on football games, players log on to NFL sports betting websites, select their NFL game of choice, choose the betting line, input the wager amount, and then place their bet. Should the bettor win their wager, the sportsbook pays their earnings into their account, and bettors can then request a withdrawal of these funds.<\/p>\n
Popular Types of NFL Betting Markets<\/h2>\n
When visiting online sportsbooks like those on our list, bettors will find several types of NFL betting lines they can enjoy. So, let’s review each of these options in greater detail below.<\/p>\n
Moneyline Bets<\/h3>\n
Unquestionably, the most common and simplest bet to place on football is the moneyline, which sees the bettor backing their prediction of which team will with the game overall. Whether they are covering a regular season game or the Superbowl final, an NFL betting site will always offer a moneyline bet. In this case, bettors can choose to back the favorite (the team most people believe will win and be highlighted with a minus (-) sign) or the underdog (highlighted with the presence of a plus (+) sign). For example, say a bettor places a $100 wager on the underdogs, the Baltimore Ravens (+163) to win. If this team wins, the bettor will receive $163 in winnings.<\/p>\n
Example:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n
Team\/Player<\/b><\/td>\n Odds<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Baltimore Ravens<\/span><\/td>\n +163<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
New York Jets<\/span><\/td>\n -203<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n
Spread Betting<\/h3>\n
Point spread betting occurs when two teams duel it out, but one is significantly better. In this case, the NFL betting odds of the better team are often not fantastic. As a result, the NFL betting site adds handicaps to the underdog team, bringing the two closer together and improving the odds.<\/p>\n
For instance, a sportsbook may add a point spread of +4, which means the underdog has an additional 4 points added to the team total. As a result, the favorite must score a minimum of five points more than their opponents to win.<\/p>\n
Example:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n
Team\/Player<\/b><\/td>\n Odds<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Houston Texans<\/span><\/td>\n +4\u00a0 -106<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
New York Giants<\/span><\/td>\n -4 \u00a0 -116<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n
Totals<\/h3>\n
Totals, also often called over\/under bets, provide bettors with the chance to predict the final score of both teams combined at the end of the game. In this case, bettors wager on whether they think the total will be more (over) or less (under) than the bookie’s prediction. For example, if you set a wager that the final score would be Over 45, and the final score was 46 or more, you’d win your bet.<\/p>\n
Example:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n
Team\/Player<\/b><\/td>\n Odds<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Seattle Seahawks<\/span><\/td>\n (O) 45<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Tampa Bay Buccaneers<\/span><\/td>\n (U) \u00a0 45<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n
Prop Bets<\/h3>\n
Another unique way bettors can enjoy NFL betting is by wagering prop bets. However, props differ from most other stakes as they don’t focus on the outcome of a game but instead on aspects that take place throughout the match. Additionally, bettors can place game props that relate to the game, like, how many touchdowns will be scored in the first ten minutes of the match. Alternatively, bettors can also place player props that see them betting on which player will score the first touchdown.<\/p>\n
Example:<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Prop: Team To Score First<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Team\/Player<\/b><\/td>\n Odds<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Seattle Seahawks<\/span><\/td>\n +104<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Tampa Bay Buccaneers<\/span><\/td>\n -136<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n
Futures<\/h3>\n
While most NFL betting lines relate to a game played the next day, or so, Futures bets focus on long-term outcomes extending past a single match. For instance, bettors can place wagers on which team will win the Superbowl.<\/p>\n
Example:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Futures: Team Set to with the Superbowl Finals<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Team\/Player<\/b><\/td>\n Odds<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Arizona Cardinals<\/span><\/td>\n +700<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Dallas Cowboys<\/span><\/td>\n + 900<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n
Parlays<\/h3>\n
A parlay is regarded as one of the more risky NFL betting lines. In this case, a bettor makes two or more wagers on a single match (same game parlay) or over several games. However, for a bettor to win their parlay, they must win each of the individual bets that make up the parlay bet.<\/p>\n
Live NFL Betting<\/h3>\n
Bettors visiting NFL betting sites can place pre-game wagers. However, many of the top online sportsbooks also provide something called in-play or live betting. In this case, the sports betting site allows bettors to place wagers like props, spreads, and parlays on football games already in play. Additionally, leading NFL betting sites live-stream football games, allowing bettors to catch the game and keep up with their wagers.<\/p>\n
NFL Betting Odds Explained<\/h2>\n
Research shows that the most popular sports for wagering at both the amateur and professional levels include association football, American football, basketball, baseball and hockey<\/a>, so for NFL bettors, understanding the odds plays a huge part.<\/p>\n
Besides providing various betting lines, the best sportsbooks also offer competitive NFL betting odds. Generally, betting odds outline how much the sportsbook will pay you if you win your bet. Further, each online NFL sports betting site determines its own NFL betting odds, depending on the likelihood of a particular outcome.<\/p>\n
Although NFL betting sites display their odds in several different ways (Decimal, Fractional, and American,) most use American odds as their default. In this case, the sportsbook indicates the favorite (team expected to win) with a minus (-), followed by the amount of money a bettor must wager to win $100. However, a plus (+) sign represents the underdog, followed by the amount a bettor could win off a $100 wager.<\/p>\n
For instance, say BetMGM offered odds of -120 for the Kansas City Chiefs and +100 for their opponents, the Jacksonville Jaguars. In that case, if you were to wager $120 on the favorites, the Kansas City Chiefs, and they won, you’d receive $100. However, if you bet $100 on the Jacksonville Jaguars, and they won, you’d win an additional $100 on a $100 wager.<\/p>\n $\"Borgata$ \n
NFL Betting Strategies & Systems<\/h2>\n
Many NFL betting fans will tell you that having one or two strategies – or even NFL betting trends – to follow not only focuses your wagers but helps to boost your chances of winning. So, we have gathered a few strategies below to provide you with a more rounded and exciting NFL betting experience.<\/p>\n
Make the Best NFL Betting Picks<\/h3>\n
While you may be tempted to follow your heart when betting, don’t. Instead, we recommend placing logical, well-researched bets and only making the best NFL betting picks. While following the guidelines offered by sportsbooks, also look carefully and isolate the wagers likely to win.<\/p>\n
Place Quarter Line Wagers<\/h3>\n
Although sports like rugby or soccer often see one team dominating throughout the match, football differs. Since all NFL teams take pride in always being at the top of their game, it is improbable that one team will lose all four quarters. As a result, placing wagers on quarter lines offers a greater chance of winning. So, place a bet on a team to win the first quarter; if they win, great; if not, you can always wager on the second quarter.<\/p>\n
Set out a Budget<\/h3>\n
NFL betting is exciting and as a result, it is tempting to keep wagering. So, it becomes essential to establish a budget first, allowing bettors to practice safe gambling and walk away not feeling too bad if it wasn’t their lucky day.<\/p>\n
Our Top 5 NFL Betting Tips<\/h2>\n
If you’re participating in NFL gambling with the hopes of winning, chances are you have a few strategies up your sleeve. However, having a few tricks won’t hurt either. Below, we offer our five top tips to help boost your chances of winning. It also pays to keep an eye out for the latest NFL betting trends that develop during a new season.<\/p>\n
Do the Research Before Betting<\/h3>\n
The fastest way to improve your chances of winning when NFL betting is to do a fair amount of research before placing your wager. Besides understanding the teams and their dynamics, we recommend you look at how they match up and review their strengths and weaknesses. Doing this makes it simpler to place more accurate wagers. Further, check the betting tips, percentages, and the NFL public betting stats to see whether a sportsbook may be over or under-valuing a team.<\/p>\n
Follow the Favorite<\/h3>\n
The underdog may have greater odds and higher payouts, but they are the underdog for a reason. So, we suggest betting on the favorite if you’re looking to win when NFL betting.<\/p>\n
Explore the Promotions and Bonuses<\/h3>\n
The best NFL betting sites provide generous and exciting rewards, so take the time to browse all the options and see what’s available. Although claiming these promos is great, using the sportsbook’s money to place your bets is even better since it allows you to get into the swing of things without risking your own money. Further, by boosting your bankroll with a bonus, you can place bigger bets and make better earnings.<\/p>\n
Pace Yourself<\/h3>\n
We recommend new players who are still finding their feet pace themselves by starting small and slow by wagering using moneylines. Once you feel more confident and know more about the other NFL betting lines available, it becomes easier to make more informed bets that win big.<\/p>\n
Give Live Betting a Try<\/h3>\n
Live betting is not for everyone. However, it is worth trying at least once as it provides loads of fun that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Since the markets and opportunities an NFL gambling site offers during a match are limited, it helps you make more accurate bets and provides much more excitement, especially for NFL betting trends followers.<\/p>\n
Biggest NFL Conferences and Divisions to Bet on<\/h2>\n
Football fans will tell you that the best NFL betting takes place during the playoffs at the end of the regular season. Generally, the playoffs comprise three rounds – the Wildcard Round, the Divisional Championship, and the Conference Championship. Following this is the highlight of the football season, the Super Bowl. How the playoffs work is that each of the two conferences sends three wild card teams along with four division champions to duel it out to see who is the ultimate football champ.<\/p>\n
Wildcard Round<\/h3>\n
The NFL kicks off the playoffs with its first round, called the Wildcard Round. This features two Wild Card games on the opening Saturday, three on Sunday, and one on Monday night. Following Wild Card Weekend is the Division Championship.<\/p>\n
Divisional Championship<\/h3>\n
Next, the winners of each league’s wild card rounds advance to face the top two division winners in that league’s Division Series.<\/p>\n
Conference Championship<\/h3>\n
Then, the two remaining teams from each conference’s divisional-round playoff games meet in the Conference Championship games.<\/p>\n
Super Bowl<\/h3>\n
Finally, the winners of the Conference Championships go on to face one another in the Super Bowl, played at a pre-determined neutral site.<\/p>\n
Bonuses for NFL Betting Online<\/h2>\n
The top NFL betting sites offer a selection of promotions to new and existing bettors. While these rewards help sportsbooks secure bettors for their sites, they make it easier for bettors to place various wagers and try a new NFL betting line without risking their own funds. So, let’s look at some of the best sportsbook promo codes<\/a>\u00a0offered by NFL betting sites.<\/p>\n
Match Deposit Sign Up Bonuses<\/h3>\n
The best NFL betting sites offer welcome bonuses to new bettors to encourage them to sign up. In most cases, these promos come as matched deposits that see the sportsbook rewarding a bettor for funding their account for the first time by matching their deposit up to a specific amount. For instance, an NFL sportsbook offering a 100% sign-up match deposit of up to $2,000 will give a bettor depositing $1,800 an additional $1,800 to spend.<\/p>\n
No Deposit Bonus<\/h3>\n
In contrast to a match deposit, the no deposit bonus does not require a bettor to fund their account and rewards them for simply signing up. In this case, the NFL gambling site gives a bettor complimentary site credits, allowing them to place risk-free wagers. However, bettors often deposit their own funds to continue wagering once the credits run out, securing a new bettor for the sportsbook.<\/p>\n
Free Bets<\/h3>\n
Although not as generous as a match deposit bonus, free bets provide bettors with a fun way to place wagers<\/a> using a new NFL betting line or back the underdog in cases where they usually wouldn’t. Typically, a free bet comes as a site credit, coupon, or voucher, allowing a bettor to make a risk-free wager. In other words, if a bettor places a free bet and loses, they risk none of their own funds, but if they win, they can keep the earnings. For example, Borgata may offer a $50 free bet on the first match of the Wild Card Round.<\/p>\n
Reload or Top-Up Bonuses<\/h3>\n
While a welcome bonus encourages new bettors to sign up, a reload bonus is offered to existing bettors to get them to continue returning. Generally, the best reload bonuses come as matched deposit promos or lifetime reload rewards that see an NFL betting site matching a bettor’s deposit each time they fund their account. However, other reload promos may include odds boosters or sports-specific bonuses.<\/p>\n
Risk-Free Bets<\/h3>\n
In most cases, risk-free bets and free bets are the same things. Here a bettor can place a wager without risking the funds they have deposited if they lose the bet.<\/p>\n
The Best Payment Methods for NFL Betting<\/h2>\n
Leading NFL betting sites provide several ways for bettors to deposit and withdraw funds from their NFL sports betting accounts. In addition to offering convenience, the sportsbook can cast a wider net and encourage more bettors to sign up. So, let’s review the most common payment options regulated NFL sports betting sites offer.<\/p>\n
eWallet Betting Options<\/h3>\n
Generally, when funding their accounts, bettors tend to opt for the most secure payment option, which is why eWallet payments have become so popular. Since these operators act as intermediaries between a bettor’s bank account and their online sportsbook account, they provide greater protection against fraud. As a result, the best NFL betting sites work with several eWallet providers like PayPal, EcoPayz, Skrill, and Neteller. So, for the best PayPal betting site, visit any of the NFL sportsbooks on our list.<\/p>\n
Traditional Payment Methods<\/h3>\n
Although eWallets are gaining popularity, many bettors prefer funding their NFL betting accounts using more traditional payment methods. As a result, the leading sportsbooks accept several methods, including credit cards, debit cards, online banking, bank wire transfers, and checks. So, if you want to fund your NFL betting account using Visa, visit any of the sites on our list.<\/p>\n
NFL Apps & Mobile Betting<\/h2>\n
In addition to offering bettors the opportunity to place bets from the comfort of home using a sportsbook website, many of the best NFL betting sites also offer wagering on the go by providing downloadable sports betting apps<\/a> or mobile-optimized websites.<\/p>\n
In most cases, both of these options offer compatibility with tablets and smartphones and function with different operating systems like Android and iOS. Having the ability to place wagers on a mobile device frees bettors up, allowing them to bet on their favorite teams from just about anywhere.<\/p>\n

Betting on NFL Near Me<\/h2>\n
Over 30 states in the US offer legal NFL sports betting. However, not all states provide online wagering, instead restricting their offerings to retail betting only. In contrast, other states provide both or only online betting. As a result, those looking to wager in person will need to visit a state where this is permitted. For example, a bettor can enjoy in-person NFL betting at the best sportsbooks in Illinois or head to Iowa’s top sports betting sites to place their bets.<\/p>\n

Reviews of the Best NFL Sportsbooks<\/h2>\nTo provide insight into why our experts chose these NFL betting sites and what they offer, we have created mini-reviews of each. So, to find out more about the ones that appeal to you, take a look below.<\/p>\n

Our Criteria for Choosing a Top NFL Betting Site<\/h2>\nWhen selecting the best NFL betting sites, our experts consider several factors to ensure these sportsbooks offer an exceptional wagering experience. Below we look at some of the criteria they measure these sites against.<\/p>\n

Choice of NFL Events<\/h3>\nAnother aspect to look into is the coverage of NFL events. We recommend seeking out an NFL betting site that covers as many events as possible, from the regular season and Wildcard round to the divisional and conference championships, not forgetting the Superbowl.<\/p>\n

Set out a Budget<\/h3>\nNFL betting is exciting and as a result, it is tempting to keep wagering. So, it becomes essential to establish a budget first, allowing bettors to practice safe gambling and walk away not feeling too bad if it wasn’t their lucky day.<\/p>\n

Follow the Favorite<\/h3>\nThe underdog may have greater odds and higher payouts, but they are the underdog for a reason. So, we suggest betting on the favorite if you’re looking to win when NFL betting.<\/p>\n

Wildcard Round<\/h3>\nThe NFL kicks off the playoffs with its first round, called the Wildcard Round. This features two Wild Card games on the opening Saturday, three on Sunday, and one on Monday night. Following Wild Card Weekend is the Division Championship.<\/p>\n

Divisional Championship<\/h3>\nNext, the winners of each league’s wild card rounds advance to face the top two division winners in that league’s Division Series.<\/p>\n

Conference Championship<\/h3>\nThen, the two remaining teams from each conference’s divisional-round playoff games meet in the Conference Championship games.<\/p>\n

Super Bowl<\/h3>\nFinally, the winners of the Conference Championships go on to face one another in the Super Bowl, played at a pre-determined neutral site.<\/p>\n

Risk-Free Bets<\/h3>\nIn most cases, risk-free bets and free bets are the same things. Here a bettor can place a wager without risking the funds they have deposited if they lose the bet.<\/p>\n
