While we saw line movement for both, there were no individual waves of sharp activity that led to widespread market movement. That all changed this afternoon, when pros struck the Packers-49ers spread while the AFC Championship Game was nearing the…

Not only is the NFL season winding down, but we’re also in the dead of winter, meaning weather can have a serious impact on the games themselves and for bettors. In fact, both of today’s conference championship matchups will be played outdoors and at the mercy of the elements. In the NFC, San Francisco will…

The spreads for this weekend’s conference championships definitely catch the eye. For one thing, they’re nearly identical.

Sure, there are some surprise teams in the mix, but conference…

After a convincing win over the Minnesota Vikings in the Divisional Round, the San Francisco 49ers will host the Green Bay Packers in Sunday’s NFC Championship Game. Aaron Rodgers was brilliant against the Seahawks to carry the Packers to victory, but oddsmakers still gave San Francisco respect, evidenced by the 7-point opening spread. To put…

For anybody unfamiliar with the concept of second-half (2H) betting, it is simple: Whenever a game goes to halftime, oddsmakers will post lines for the second half of the game. This solely reflects the points scored in the second half, not the final score. NFL bettors looking to profit on these additional wagering opportunities can…
