Yep, but you can't live in America for most of the sites.

Local bookies are legitimate if you ask me.

Most have NE -9. Meaning that New England has to beat us by more than 9 points for you to win.

This seems like a sucker bet. When 80% of the general pop money goes one way it is bad news.

I would the house on that no brainer. A pissed off, fired up Tom Brady at home with a chip on his shoulder against a team spiraling downward, no leadership and ....relying on Marvin to get us back to form? lol

Easy bet. Guaranteed money.

I think rule number one in betting is don't bet your own team. GL though.

It's actually a horrible bet. I bet on football quite frequently and taking lines that are close to 10 is a bad deal. You want to avoid those type of games. Even if it's a horrible team vs the best team in the league. There's a saying "any given Sunday" for a reason, and that's to win a game. To give up that many points is just way too risky. You can do what you want with you're money though. I just wouldn't recommend it.

I do it all the time. I never bet ON the Bengals. It's a kiss of death. I usually bet against them to lose so if they do lose, at least I gain something financially. If they win, I'm even happier.

I made $250 this past weekend. Wish I lost.

If you do like risks, just bet the winner. Sure, betting that the Pats just win will only get you about $22 for every $100 you wager, but I think we can all agree that there is a very good chance the Pats win.

Sometimes, I do what's called a "Nightmare Scenario". I bet that the Bengals will LOSE and the Steelers will WIN. This week, since the Bengals are a huge underdog and the Steelers are a huge favorite, if you parlay them both you would get about $54 for every $100 you bet. I'm sure if the Bengals won you would be more than happy to lose some money. I am.

Parlay the steelers to win and the pats to win outright.  It is a given and if for some reason, the steelers lose or the bengals win, I'm still happy.  Who said money can't buy you happiness?
