Football Betting Surprises

Nobody ever made a living at NFL football by solely playing favorites, particularly power favorites at home. It may work for certain teams at certain times during certain seasons but, on balance and as a rule, betting home chalks cannot sustain a profit in Internet football .

Remember, the NFL football lines are a reflection of public perception and the consumer demand of gamblers. The more that the public wants something, the more that it is going to cost, meaning that the less likely that it is going to retain value. That leads to where NFL football surprises can be found and that is with underdogs, particularly road underdogs. The masses are simply not comfortable with playing road teams that are getting points, as thy think that there are two disadvantages, which are playing the weaker team and playing them on the road, regardless of the merit of the price and relative Internet football betting value. Sure, there can be a time and a place for a home chalk, but as a rule, look first at the dogs, as you will often be getting good football betting surprises that can make you money.
