Episode notes
ADVICE

Lean Into Reliable Win Totals

  • Bet the Chiefs' win total and similar perennial powers because consistency matters in lines.
  • Target overs for teams with stable QB situations and clear upside like Tampa and Jags.
ADVICE

Use Roster Risk To Back Unders

  • Fade teams with roster uncertainty by taking their unders, like the Colts and Cowboys.
  • Use divisional schedule and injury risk to spot valuable under bets early in the season.
ADVICE

Avoid Low-Value Parlays

  • Parlaying obvious misses is poor value; single-direction convictions are better staked separately.
  • Avoid square parlays that simply layer favorites for marginal payout.
