NEW YORK, Oct. 25, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — HowToBet.com , an educational gambling website created to help fans learn how to bet on sports , casino games, and more, has identified new key trends in the NFL for fans interested in betting on games in October and November.
On the money lines, underdogs have performed fairly well. In week one, the underdogs (plus money teams) went 8 to 8, followed by 5 to 11 and 9 and 9 performances during week two and week three, respectively.

In doing so, he saved countless parlays and straight bets.
