How to read NFL Las Vegas Odds
The point-spread was developed to provide a balance for both teams involved in a contest to entice bettors to potentially back the weaker team and receive points. The two squads in a game are listed with a title, either a favorite or an underdog. The favorite is usually the perceived better team in the game, as backing them means giving up several points.
The favorite is always listed with a minus (-) sign before the point-spread while the underdog is labeled with a plus (+) label.
Ex. Favorite -10, Underdog +10
On the VegasInsider.com odds page, there is another number associated with the favorite and its listed as -10. This number is simply defined as “vig” or what many in the sports betting industry call vigorish. Another common term is called “juice” and it’s technically the price the bettor has to pay on a straight wager.
Ex. Bet $110 to win $100 (10% juice)
Ex. Bet $100 to win $90.91 (10% juice)
It's not uncommon to see other values posted other than -10. Examples seen on the NFL Vegas Odds pages could include -08, -12, -15 and -20. The -10 price is the most common value in the industry while many books offer reduced 'juice odds' and that would fall into the -08 category.
The lower-juice sportsbooks are normally found outside of the state Nevada. If you are in a state where sports betting is legal, please check out our online sportsbook directory to find the best and most secure places to make NFL bets.
Another number that’s posted on the NFL Las Vegas is the total or ‘over/under’ for the specific matchup. If the favorite is designated as the home team, then the total will be listed above and vice versa if the visitors are favorites.
All of the above numbers are listed next to the teams, and before each matchup is a Rotation number. The NFL Las Vegas Odds are listed in order of rotation and those numbers are generated and produced by the sportsbooks. Above each matchup and rotation is the Time of the game, which is subject to change. All game times are Eastern Standard Time.
NFL Open Line
One of the best features on the NFL Vegas Odds is the Open Line. This numbers consists of the first betting line received from one of our Las Vegas or Global Sportsbooks. The opening line varies depending on the sportsbook but it provides a clear-cut rating that the oddsmakers use. If you’re betting on the NFL or any other sport, it’s a great idea to view the open line first.
VI Consensus NFL Line
The VegasInsider.com Consensus NFL Line is just as important as the Open Line and also a key resource on odds platform. The Consensus column could be called a “Median Line” since it shows the most consistent number provided by the sportsbooks on VegasInsider.com. The consensus line will be the same as the open line but once the wagers start coming in, this number is often different than the openers.
How do I bet on the Super Bowl?
We know that you can bet on the Super Bowl and all of NFL Futures or bet on the NFL Draft at any time of the year, but what’s the process? The future wager or the “Odds to Win” bet on the Super Bowl is correctly selecting a team to win an event that takes place at a later time. A bettor will have his wagered money tied up until there is an outcome and bettors will receive fixed odds when they place the wager. In the case of the Super Bowl, you’re not a winner or loser until you see zeros on the clock in the final game.
Most sportsbooks offer different ways to read to Super Bowl Odds. In the fractional NFL Futures Odds format below, you simply take the odds and multiply by the amount wagered.
Nfl Dpoy Award Odds
Ex. Green Bay (8/1) to win the Super Bowl
The Packers are listed as an 8/1 betting choice to win the Super Bowl. If you wager $100 on Green Bay to win the NFC and they capture the championship, then you would win $800 (8 ÷ 1 x 100). Your online betting account would then credit your account $900, which includes your win and stake ($100).
The American Format would see Green Bay listed at +800 and for the Decimal Format, the Packers would be 9.00.
If you are in a state where online betting is legal, we encourage you to check out our sportsbook directory to find the most trustworthy and reputable sites and mobile apps to place your Super Bowl bets.
The NFL’s Defensive Player of the Year award has been dominated by pass rushers in recent history. Since 2010, seven of the last 10 winners have been pass rushers in some form, whether on the edge or at defensive tackle.
The New England Patriots’ Stephon Gilmore broke the mold last year by winning it as a cornerback, but it’s rare for a defensive back to take home this award.
In 2020, there’s a host of quality candidates, many of whom are unsurprisingly pass rushers. However, among the top eight favorites, there are two defensive backs.

2020 Defensive Player of the Year best bets
Best bet: Aaron Donald +750
Donald is the favorite, and for good reason. He’s won the award twice in his career and although his numbers dipped a bit last season, he was still deserving of consideration for the award because of the impact he has that doesn’t show up on the box score.
With DTs Michael Brockers back and A’Shawn Robinson also on the defensive line, Donald has a decent supporting cast – even though the loss of LB Dante Fowler Jr. will hurt from a pass-rush perspective. But Donald has had double-digit sacks in four of the last five years and should eclipse 10 in 2020.
Value play: T.J. Watt +1500
Watt had a strong case to win the award last season, but was beat out by Gilmore, who had a phenomenal season on arguably the best defense in the NFL. Watt had 14.5 sacks and tied for the NFL high with eight forced fumbles, hitting the QB 36 times in 16 games.
He’s durable and productive and his numbers have only improved each season he’s been in the NFL. Next season should be his best yet and he’ll certainly be in the running to win the award. At +1500, there’s a ton of upside, too.
Long-shot pick: Chandler Jones +3000
The Cardinals’ Jones has never won Defensive Player of the Year, despite leading the NFL with 96 sacks since arriving in Arizona in 2016. He had a career-high 19 sacks and an NFL-leading eight forced fumbles last season, finishing second in Defensive Player of the Year voting with only seven fewer votes than Gilmore.
The Cardinals should be much-improved in 2020, too, which will only help Jones’ exposure as an impact player.
