How to Bet on the Texans vs. Panthers
Placing your bets on either the Texans or the Panthers? Here’s how you can bet on them:
Moneyline — a simple betting method showing the potential amount you can win. A moneyline of -110 means you pay $110 for every $100 you can win. If the moneyline for the Bears is at +200, you can win $200 for every $100 you stake.
Point spread — represents the gap in scores between the teams. If you bet on the favorite team at a point spread of -7, they need to score 7 points more than the opposing team for you to win the bet.
Over/under — players bet on the total combined score of both teams. If the O/U is 46.0 and the combined final score is 48, those who bet “over” win.
In-play and live betting — cast your bet on games happening in real time. The odds fluctuate as the game progresses, so be careful when you bet. If you’re an online bettor, get access to the live event through podcasts or bet through online sportsbooks.
Parlays and teasers — you can bet on two or more selections in different sporting events. One advantage of this technique is that your initial stake and winnings are rolled into the next game. However, you risk losing your entire parlay if one of your bets loses.
