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 its 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 thats 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 youre betting on the NFL or any other sport, its 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 whats 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, youre 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.
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.
Last year, it was the dots. This year, FOX’s player illustrations are the breakout feature of the NFL season.
If you’ve watched an NFL game recently, you’ve definitely noticed these comically buff depictions of NFL players. The quarterbacks, who are especially jacked for some reason, have been the best ones by far.
These cartoons need to be celebrated, so I spent the day collecting screenshots of every starting quarterback and I’ve ranked them based on … well, when I started, the rankings were based on accuracy but it ended up being how entertaining I found them.
Note: I was unable to find illustrations for Drew Lock and Cam Newton. Neither has played a game on FOX this season.
1 Kyler Murray
That’s a damn good Kyler right there. It’s accurate and the artist did a good job of capturing his general tininess.
2 Joe Flacco
This artist gets extra points for saying “Screw it, I’m not drawing Joe Flacco’s head.” I wouldn’t want to do that either. Flacco is the only quarterback on this list with a helmet on.
3 Teddy Bridgewater
As long as you ignore his enormous left eye, this is a spot-on depiction of Teddy. He looks so dignified.
4 Russell Wilson
The more I look at this one, the less it looks like Russell Wilson to me. They did manage to capture the deadness behind his eyes.
5 Drew Brees
Brees looks so … weathered. Did they really have to give him those forehead wrinkles? He looks like a 50-year-old Jesse Pinkman.

6 Justin Herbert
Look at that hair. It’s glorious. And now it’s all gone. Will FOX give us an updated illustration? A part of me doesn’t want that to happen.
7 Jake Luton
I can’t imagine the thoughts going through the artist’s head while doing an illustration of freaking Jake Luton. That had to be a rough night. I also can’t tell you if that is an accurate depiction, as I have no idea what Luton looks like and I refuse to google it.
8 Derek Carr
He looks so menacing. Like he’s about to reveal his plot to take over the world, one fourth-down throwaway at a time.
9 Carson Wentz
Based on his playing style, this is probably what Carson Wentz thinks he actually looks like. Those are some wide shoulders and is it just me or does he look kind of vampirish?
10 Baker Mayfield
He has the distracted boyfriend meme look on his face. You could make one of those memes and have Baker’s girlfriend as a Browns receiver and the other woman as a defender. I’m just spitballing here.
11 Andy Dalton
HAHAHAHAHAHA.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
This one isn’t actually good, but I just enjoy it so much.
Why did they do that to poor Andy Dalton? They got him looking like a Dr. Suess character. The hair is pretty good though.
12 Joe Burrow
If Joe Burrow’s arm was really that strong, he might be the best quarterback ever.
13 Aaron Rodgers
They made Aaron Rodgers look like a guy who’s listened to every Joe Rogan podcast, so … good job, FOX.

14 Matt Ryan
Matt Ryan looks like a guy who gets paid to do murders.
15 Daniel Jones
He looks like a sad Superman; but instead of Kryptonite, his weakness is sack fumbles.
16 Matthew Stafford
You can’t tell me that’s not Haley Joel-Osment.
17 Nick Mullens
I’m getting a Captain Morgan vibe from this one.
18 Josh Allen
This looks like an aged Josh Allen. Like that’s what he’ll look like when he’s 32 … and backing up whoever the Bills draft in two years. Joking.
19 Jared Goff
I like how Goff’s one eye is looking off to the sideline so he can see Sean McVay telling him where to throw the ball.
20 Philip Rivers
This Philip Rivers is jacked for some reason and looks like he hasn’t slept in a week. It’s hard to get your eight hours with all those kids running around.
21 Tom Brady
This looks like a 12-year-old boy who is standing behind one of those cardboard cutouts without the head that people stand behind for pictures.
22 Lamar Jackson
I mean, it looks like Lamar but why is he so sad?
23 Ben Roethlisberger
Did a Ben Roethlisberger draw this?
24 Nick Foles
That looks like the kind of Nick Foles who could lead you to a Super Bowl. Unfortunately, that’s not that Nick Foles the Bears are getting this season.
25 Patrick Mahomes
I don’t know who that is, but it’s not Patrick Mahomes.
26 Kirk Cousins
That’s Mitt Romney. Extremely buff Mitt Romney.
27 Alex Smith
Fox Nfl Odds Week 8
What’s going on with Alex Smith’s head here? It’s like … bulbous, right?
28 Deshaun Watson
Um … Deshaun Watson is looking a little pale here. Is this supposed to be his ghost? It looks like he got a visit from Carson Wentz’s cartoon.
29 Ryan Tannehill
This is play-action Ryan Tannehill. Straight dropback Ryan Tannehill looks more like the Alex Smith illustration.
Fox Nfl Odds Week 2
30 Tua Tagovailoa
Not only does this look nothing like Tua Tgovailoa but there aren’t any discernable features I can make a joke about. Boring.
