PASS
When considering a game with no real Trend either way you
should consider watching the game just for the enjoyment of the
competition. There is no need to have action on every scheduled game
and when you are risking real money you always want to have an edge and
not be in a coin toss situation. Unless you have a very good reason to
make a wager, just pass on the game. If you want to bet on the game any
way take a look at the over/under or consider a teaser play.
Better
yet, when you can't find a betting edge in a game that you are going to
watch, use it as an opportunity to study both teams without a rooting
bias either way. By studying the teams without money at risk, you can
be an objective observer and gain valuable information on each sides
abilities, patterns and habits. Use the game to form better opinions
for future games involving the two teams and you do have money on the
line.
LOOK AT THE OVER/UNDER
If there is no Trend for either team, the over/under is
sometimes the smarter bet and allows you to root for both teams, either
both offenses or both defenses. There are teams whos game plan and
coaching style results in consistent high or consistent low scores and
when the team is not in a bet on or bet against trend look for an edge
in the over/under numbers . Get the complete over under strategy in the

POINTSPREAD VALUE
Look for and shop for pointspreads that favor the side you
want to bet. If you like the underdog in a football game and can get a
line of +3.5 or +7.5 then you are in a good position because many games
end on 3 and 7. You are in a favorable position to win because your
underdog team could win outright or lose by just a field goal or by a
touchdown to cover. If it is the favorite you want to bet, lines of
-6.5 and -2.5 or less puts you in a better position and less likely to
have a straight up win but a loss against the spread.
In many close
games that have a point spread of 3 or 7 it is worth laying the extra
juice to buy off those numbers. In a close game you can get a
significant advantage when you buy off 3 and get -2.5 or +3.5 on the
favorite and the underdog respectively. When the line is 7 and you buy
off down to -6.5 or up to +7.5 you put yourself in a position to win
more bets because a close game often ends on a field goal or a
touchdown.
DEFENSE
One of the most important points in handicapping any
matchup is to take a good look at the defense. When you find a
defensive mismatch then bet on the team with the better stop unit. If
the better defense is the favorite, you should limit the amount of
points you will lay to - 7 at home - 3 on the road. If the team with
the better defense is the dog you have a good opportunity but
first look for reasons to pass on the game or pick up a few more points
by betting them in a teaser.
TEASER STRATEGY
When you are picking a game with no real Trend, the
additional points in a teaser bet can make a big difference. There are
2 situations where teaser points come in very handy. First, when you
can capture a lot of the key numbers (3, 4, 6, 7) and secondly when you
can push up the underdog points to more than 2 touchdowns.
When you
have a favorite of - 8.5 and can move the pointspread down to - 2.5 you
have captured all the key numbers and are more likely to win ATS if the
favorite wins straight up. The same thing applies to a line of +1.5
because you can apply the teaser and be getting +7.5, again capturing
all the key numbers. When you like a strong favorite but have to lay
-11 it is not a good position to be in. Your team could win by a
touchdown and a field goal and still not cover. Taking some of those
points off with a teaser and get that -11 down to a - 5 makes a big
difference. You get inside the key 7 and 6 numbers making it less
likely to win the game straight up but lose ATS.
If you like an
underdog and can push a +4.5 line up to +10.5 you are in a very strong
position and taking a +8.5 dog up to +14.5 is awesome! Being able to
start an NFL game with a 2 touchdown lead is a huge advantage. The
