The Line, Spread and Odds for this weekend’s games:

The Chiefs have been awesome this year. If only they weren’t in the same division as the Broncos… The Colts at home not giving up any points looks tempting. It’s a nice line if you like Colts.

Surprised that the Eagles are favored here, don’t be. They’re playing at home and the Saints have been horrible on the road.

San Diego sneaked into the playoffs with an overtime win against the Cheif’s 2nd string. It’s really doesn’t inspire much confidence in this team. You can see why the Bengals are favored here.

This could be the bet of the weekend. This line is begging me to bet on the Packers. It’s so rare that you get a home team as an underdog during the playoffs. Sorry 49ers fans, I like Green Bay with the spread. (Of course San Fran can still win by a couple).

NFL Playoff Betting Trends and Tips

You should have an extra edge to handicap for your bets, especially during NFL playoffs. You have to account for past statistics and performances while considering current situation.

A successful handicapping approach relies not only on stats and trends but also on countless football bettors or writers, every team’s hometown newspaper and sweating study of the game films.

Also, lines in the playoffs always tend to be their sharpest. So, betting on underdogs or roadside teams involves greater risk along with higher returns. Thus, you should wager the least of your money to make sure that you have funds to bet in the Superbowl.

Valuable NFL Playoff Betting Tips

Throw Away All Your Biases: It’s inevitable that you have built some biases about various teams during the season, which are sure to change your reactions and bets in the play-off matches. To have a successful betting experience during play-off matches, you should discard all such biases and give a fresh start.

Never Think Beyond Current Round: Play-offs lead to Super bowl, which is the biggest sporting event on the planet. So, unarguably it will rule the minds of people and quite possibly distract you in your current play-off round bets. The piece of advice here is like a coach advices their team, Never look past the current game. So, concentrate on the current game and do not let something pass you by.

Reset Your Goals: Play-off matches are completely different from the regular ones. These play-off games offer a significant opportunity to earn great profits and give much more time to handicap for your each bet. So, make sure to reset your bankroll and place the best bet to reach these re-assessed goals.

Be Choosy: Always be self-disciplined to choose your bets during play-off games. You should place only those bets that give an acceptable extra edge and are entirely in your comfort zone.

 Focus on Match-Ups over Anything Else: Stakes and intensity are too high in play-off games that aches or pains or any thing else carries no significant value. The only thing that should matter to bettors is one to one match-up between players and unit to unit matches between the teams. So, focus on nothing else except these match-ups, while handicapping for your bets.

Consider Reputed Sites For Handicapping: It’s better to handicap on your own for play-off bets but if you need help or guidance never look beyond reputable bettors or sporting sites. Relying on anyone or everyone over the internet for your wagering is sure to end with huge losses.

So, if you are one of the serious punters looking to earn huge cash from NFL. Consider right bets, appropriate wagering amount and above all choose a popular and reputable sporting website.
