The NFL season is short but packs in a tremendous amount of drama and spectacular highlight moments. The likes of the Kansas City Chiefs, Las Vegas Raiders and the Seattle Seahawks step into action to begin a new season in the autumn.
That season climaxes with the Super Bowl, traditionally played on the second weekend of February. But there’s a tough road to get there and plenty of American Football betting to follow along the way.
Most futures options in NFL betting are on the Super Bowl Winner. That’s the Championship match, one of the world’s most-watched, most bet-on single sports events. A call on the Super Bowl winner can be made before the season kicks off and is a popular long-term forecast in NFL odds.
As it settles down and a clearer picture of the quality of the teams starts to show through, the odds on the outright winner market shift and present new opportunities for punters to study.
Among other futures for American football betting is finishing positions, with Divisional Winners and Conference Winners to piece together. There are also calls on a team to book a spot in the NFL Play-offs, the MVP of the Season, the Rookie of the Season and more to consider.
The NFL draft is another big area for NFL betting. The draft is a chance for the best youngsters coming from College Football to get picked up by an NFL Franchise. This is a big deal, with a lot of focus on who will be the number one overall pick.
Which player will go as the top pick in the NFL draft can be selected in NFL odds. Players can also be backed to get picked in group options, such as inside the top five or top ten picks from the Draft.
There are three main types of bets that you will see for American Football odds. When looking at the Mr Green blog for insights into the season or the Super Bowl, these are the NFL bets most commonly mentioned:
Moneyline: The Moneyline in NFL betting online is a match-winner prediction. When presented in American odds, the match favourite is represented by a negative number, and the underdog a positive.
Spread Betting: A very popular market for American football odds, which is a type of handicap bet. The spread is how many points a team must win or lose by. A -6.5 spread on Washington, for example, means they must win by at least seven points, while a +6.5 on the Buffalo Bills means the team can’t lose by more than six.
Totals: An over/under market for NFL bets. This applies to the total number of points scored in the match, combined. An alternative is picking an Over/Under line for a single team in a match, or even by Half or Quarter.
Match betting brings a huge volume of NFL odds to punters. Markets can run very deep for a single match, including calls on the exact final score, the number of touchdowns and prop bets on player performances.
LIVE betting lets punters get deeper insights by watching the game and studying the in-play NFL odds alongside it for areas like the total points a team will score in a quarter, the half-time result, or the outcome of the next drive. Catch LIVE NFL odds on every match from the current season.
