Ever wondered -
How do you football props work for betting
in a sportsbook??
Looking for a short
explanation of how NFL
props work? Look
no farther than these dandy's below. NFL
props are small OR large side bets placed
on sporting events, Examples include the
coin toss, will it be heads or tails, first
team to score, first team to kick a field
goal, first team to get a 1st down, etc
etc. With week 1 coming up in the NFL here
are some football
props that our top
sportsbook BETUS.com has come up with some
great props for the Packers vs Eagles
and Chargers vs Bears games. Hopefully
you'll understand how NFL prop bets work
after you read this article. As always
check back with the creative oddsmakers
at BetUS.com. Who are always coming up
with some interesting props wagers for
NFL matchups.
Here is a look at some of the interesting
props bets available to bettors followed
by my Free NFL Picks.
Which team will cross the 50 on offense
1st?
Chicago Bears -110
San Diego Chargers -130
Analysis: Take
the team with the better offense here – the
San Diego Chargers.
Will a Kickoff be returned for a TD?
Yes +800
No -3000
Analysis: Despite
the fact that Devin Hester and Eric Parker
are both playing in this game, I’m
going to say no kickoff will be returned
for a touchdown.
Which team will punt 1st?
Chicago Bears -130
San Diego Chargers -110
Analysis: The Bears will punt first, no
doubt.
Will an INT be returned for a TD?
Yes +400
No -800
Analysis: I
say the Bears pick off Philip Rivers
at least once but don’t return
any for a score.
Longest FG by San Diego Chargers
Over 38½ yards -120
Under 38½ yards -120
Analysis: The
Chargers’ Nate Keading
will make at least one kick of 40 yards
or more. Take the ‘Yes’ here.
Longest FG by Chicago Bears
Over 38½ yards -120
Under 38½ yards -120
Analysis:
Bears kicker Robbie Gould can definitely
make one from beyond 38.5 yards. Take
the ‘Yes’ bettors.
This weekend’s matchup between the
Philadelphia Eagles and Green Bay Packers
features several interesting props bets
for NFL bettors to salivate over. Here
are several of the wagers available – and
the likely outcomes of each.
Which team will record the 1st sack in
the game?
Philadelphia Eagles -115
Analysis: Take
the Eagles to take down Brett Favre before
Green Bay gets to Philadelphia’s
Donovan McNabb.
Will a Kickoff be returned for a TD?
Yes +800
No -3000
Analysis: No way. Both of these teams
could use better returners, although the
Packers are a bit better in this area.
Longest FG by Green Bay Packers
Over 38½ Yards
-120
Under 38½ Yards
-120
Analysis: The Packers Mason Crosby will
make one of at least 40 yards, particularly
after the Eagles stop Green Bay from getting
into the end zone on a routine basis.
Final score in the game will be?
Odd Number -140
Even Number EV
Analysis: I’ve
got the Eagles winning this game 31-21,
so there you go.
Longest FG by Philadelphia Eagles
Over 38½ Yards
-120
Under 38½ Yards
-120
Analysis: The Eagles have one of the best
kickers in all of football in veteran David
Akers. Take Akers to make at least one
of 40 yards or more.

Will there be a safety in the game?
Yes +800
No -3000
Analysis: Both
quarterbacks here are too wise to give
up a safety, so it won’t
happen in this game bettors.
Will a punt be returned for a TD
Yes +500
No -1000
*Blocked punt does not count
Analysis: Unless
the Packers turn the trick, it won’t happen. Philadelphia’s
best returners, Brian Mitchell and Vai
Sikahema, retired a long time ago.
Which team will cross the 50 on offense
1st?
Philadelphia Eagles -130
Green Bay Packers -110
Analysis: This
wager is literally a toss-up. However,
since I expect the Eagles to win this
game handily, I’ll take them
to cross midfield first.
