NFL bets can oftentimes be made more successfully by checking out angles or trends that apply to the game. When looking over the pro football betting schedule each week there are several good handicapping angles that a gambler can take into account to gain an edge when making NFL bets.
NFL bets can have a lot of angles to consider. The first pro football betting angle we want to look at for making NFL bets is the “peek ahead” theory. This is when a team has a big game on deck the following week while playing a far lower profile type game in the immediate. For example, if the Dallas Cowboys are playing a game against an average team out of their division with a home game against the arch rival Washington Redskins on deck for the following week, they may be looking ahead and play distracted football as their minds could be on their eager anticipation of what is ahead.
