Pro Football Betting Generalizations:
Pro Football Betting Generalizations:
- Don't try to make money betting on a bad team.
- Don't give more than 7 points.
- Don't bet the underdog unless you think it can win the game.
- Bet a clearly superior team any time it is favored by less than a touchdown.
- Bet the team you like regardless of injuries, home field, etc. Those factors have already been included in the line.
- Don't bet games in which the weather is likely to be a factor. You're guessing.
- Bet convictions, not hunches. When in doubt, pass the game up.
- Bet with your emotions, but don't be carried away.
Generalizations about bookies, betting and the points:
- Don't be intimidated by the line. If you think a favorite isn't favored by enough or an underdog is underdogged by too much, bet it. The line is fallible.
- Bet on the public (popular) teams early in the week, bet against them as late as possible.
