How to Place Bets on the Seahawks vs. Bears Odds

Moneyline

This method is a straightforward bet in which the bettor predicts which team will win the match outright. Odds with a minus (-) sign signify the favorites, and those with a plus (+) sign indicate the underdogs.

The following NFL odds show a typical moneyline bet:

  • Chicago Bears -172
  • Seattle Seahawks +158

The Chicago Bears are the favorites at -172 odds. If you bet $172 on the Bears, you win $100 if the team wins. If you root for the Seahawks at +158 odds, a $100 bet will earn you a $158 return if the Seahawks win.

Point Spread

In spread betting, a team you bet on needs to win by a certain number of points against the opponent. Take the following betting lines as an example:

  • Las Vegas Raiders -2.5
  • Denver Broncos +2.5

The minus (-) sign denotes the Raiders as the point favorites. If you bet on the Raiders, the team has to win by three or more points over the Broncos for you to win the bet.

On the other hand, if you choose the Broncos, the team needs to win the match straight up or lose by no more than two points for your bet to win.

Over/Under

Bettors may place bets on whether the combined score of both teams goes over or under a predetermined score set by sportsbooks.

For example, in a Cleveland Browns vs. Pittsburgh Steelers match, the O/U is set at 47.5. If you place an “over” bet, the total combined score must exceed 47 points. If you bet “under,” the total score must be 47 points or fewer.

Prop Bets

One way to make betting exciting and fun is through prop betting. These bets are placed on milestones that may or may not be affected by a game’s final outcome. Examples of prop bets include:

  • Which team picks a running back during the first round of the NFL Draft?
  • Will Aaron Rodgers surpass his last season’s total passing yardage?
  • Will a player in an offensive line become next season’s MVP?
  • Will Deshaun Watson achieve 10 interceptions next season?
  • Will any team score in the first five minutes of the Super Bowl?
