How To Bet NFL Parlays

If you want to bet on NFL parlays, there are a few things you need to know. First of all, a parlay is simply a bet that combines two or more individual wagers into one single bet. For example, you could bet on the Dallas Cowboys and the New York Jets to both win their respective games. If they both win, then you will win your parlay bet. However, if just one team loses, then you would lose your entire parlay bet.

NFL Parlay Tips To Win

Here are some tips to remember when assembling your NFL parlay picks for the week:

Find The Best Line

Another key to successful NFL parlay betting is to shop around for the best lines. Different sportsbooks will often have different lines on the same games. So, you must shop around and find the best line possible before placing your bet. This may take some time, but it will be well worth it in the end if you win your bet.

Don’t Go Crazy

With every leg you add to a parlay, the risk climbs as well. Sure, you will receive heightened odds when adding more picks to your parlay slip, but this is a balancing act where you don’t want to have too much risk. Because of that, it usually makes sense to stick to parlays of 2-to-4 picks.

You’ll often see sportsbooks share bet slips of one of their customers hitting a 14-leg NFL parlay. Do you ever wonder why they do that? It’s because these are improbable lottery tickets that are profitable for the sportsbook. They want people to place 10+ leg parlays. Don’t fall into that trap.

Check Your Emotions (And Bankroll)

Betting parlays can be emotionally taxing. Be sure to only bet what you can afford to lose. Understand that NFL parlay bets have more risk than regular straight bets, so there’s a chance you could have several losing weeks in a row. Keeping a level head during the inevitable downswing is important.

Some people chase their losses by irrationally betting more, which is something that is best to avoid. Make a plan going into the season. Set a budget and stick to it.
