Wild Ride
Best quartet of divisional round games in NFL playoff history eked out a profit thanks to the stellar run of individual player prop picks. My prediction that the Chiefs margin would be the biggest of the weekend proved true, though it took overtime and the wildest last two minutes of playoff football I've ever witnessed live. Will have more of those individual player prop picks for the title round of games this weekend.

Unlike American sports, where the rare occasion a draw happens it can be absorbed into the +0.5 and -0.5 spreads in assessing your options, the draw has a very significant probability of happening in football to the extent it opens up double chance and draw no bet markets (in which the draw can be significant enough to render both pick'ems unprofitable at the same time, a phenomenon not observed in American sports). This leads directly on to part of the challenge in football betting: the draw can nuke evenly poised spreads since spreads require an edge on one team over the other, so moneylines have to considered to get a full picture of potential value.
Whereas finding an edge on American sports primarily lies in identifying a ...
