NFL betting players scanning the web for the latest sports betting tips are often advised to bet on the spread, and rightfully so. Wagering on the spread not only gives fans a little wiggle room when making NFL predictions; it also lets you cash in on a much bigger payout when backing a favorite, or it can allow bettors to make some of the surest predictions in the game. So without any further ado, let’s take a look at the best sportsbook bonus that bettors can cash in on when betting on the NFL spread this weekend.
New Orleans Saints vs. Atlanta Falcons
This Thursday night football matchup gets some recognition simply because of the low juice on the spread. Most NFL bookmakers will have the Saints pegged at anywhere from -150 to -200 so if you want to back New Orleans you can take them on the spread. At the moment, NFL sportsbooks have the spread set at 1 ½ points so you’re essentially just picking the Saints to win the game. With a -105 payout, that’s not a bad option for bettors who are convinced New Orleans is the better team.
Dallas Cowboys vs. New York Giants
The Ezekiel Elliott-less Dallas Cowboys looked pretty good this past weekend in their 38-14 pounding of the Washington Redskins. Now sports betting sites are pegging them as favorites against the New York Giants, which makes sense considering what a madhouse Big Blue is at the moment. After benching Eli Manning, the organization decided to finally part ways with Ben McAdoo. Now Manning will get the start once again but there’s no guarantee that there will be a turnaround. Dallas is facing a 5-point spread and they should have no problem covering it against a defense that ranks 30th against the pass and dead last against the run.
Green Bay Packers vs. Cleveland Browns
Those who tuned in for Green Bay’s 26-20 overtime win over the Buccaneers this past weekend know that the franchise has found something special in Jamaal Williams. Williams currently has 337 yards and 3 touchdowns to his name and is averaging 3.7 yards per carry. Those numbers aren’t phenomenal, but there’s no doubt that Williams was one of the major reasons that the Pack won over Tampa Bay.
Furthermore, that win puts Green Bay in a favorable spot to make a playoff push. With Aaron Rodgers return just a week away, the Packers are thinking playoffs all the way. Green Bay should have no problem covering a 3 point spread against the winless Browns. Not at Lambeau Field and certainly not when the playoffs are on the line. It’s called Titletown for a reason. The payout on the Packers is anywhere from -110 to -120, so there might be some better best sportsbook bonus to cash in on but this is a pretty sure bet.
Washington Redskins vs. Los Angeles Chargers
This is an iffy line at best. The Redskins are 5-7 and will look to pick up a road win against the 6-6 Chargers. Los Angeles will be playing for a spot in the playoffs, so you can expect them to put their best foot forward. The line is set at 6-points on the spread, with LA pegged as the rightful favorite. The Chargers just beat the Browns by 9 which doesn’t really inspire a whole lot of confidence when backing them on the spread. However, the Redskins just lost by 14 to the Dallas Cowboys. So the question is do the Chargers have a better offense than the Cowboys?
