Nfl Sports Betting Picks
The NFL consensus is a great tool to use when making your NFL picks because you can see what other football bettors are wagering on. This is the percentage of the general public betting on each side of a matchup or total. You can bet with or against the public. When you bet against the public, it is called “fading” the public.

Prediction
Bills 29, Colts 20
Money line (?)
Playing the Bills (-275) is not a good idea, risking nearly three times your potential return. Over the long haul, it’s a losing proposition to bet in that manner unless you plan to toss it into a multi-team parlay. Even then, it’s better to just bet against the spread. PASS.
Against the spread (?)
The BILLS -6.5 (-115) have been money at home, with their last non-cover coming in Week 8 against New England in a 24-21 win as four-point favorites, and their last outright loss coming in Week 10 against the Arizona Cardinals on the Hail Murray, 32-30.
Even without their throngs of fans at full throat, Bills Stadium has been a difficult place to play. They’ll have a limited amount of fans in the stands Saturday to help spur them on.
Over/Under (?)
These are a couple of high-flying offenses, and they should put on a show in the opening game of the 2020 NFL playoffs. However, the lean is to the UNDER 51.5 (-115).
In last season’s wild-card round the Under was a perfect 4-0, and the Under is hitting at a 75.8 percent clip (22-7-3) across the wild-card round in the past eight seasons. That’s good enough for me to keep banging Under plays.
