NFL Lookahead Lines Week 7

Westgate Superbook in Las Vegas Posts NFL Lookahead Lines Week 7

Each week during the NFL season, the Westgate Superbook in Las Vegas (@LVSuperBook), formerly LVH and Hilton, releases the betting lines for the following week’s games. These lines offer a glimpse at the projected betting lines up to 10 days in advance of the games.

These ‘NFL Lookahead Lines’ or advance lines can be useful in not only projecting ahead to next week’s games and lines, but also to keep you from over-reacting to one game or the upcoming games results. Comparing the lookahead lines before games are played on Sunday to the actual opening numbers on Sunday following each weeks games should help you identify potential line value.

Such was the case in Week 5 when the Patriots were posted as a 3-point favorite on the lookahead lines for their match-up vs. the Bengals.  Following an embarrassing 41-14 loss at Kansas City on Monday night football, the Patriots were posted at pick ‘em or a 1-point home underdog and ultimately closed +3 against Cincinnati, who was undefeated at 3-0 and coming off a bye.  Final score: New England 43, Cincinnati 17.

You can use these lookahead lines as a tool and chance to get down betting action at sports books that offer early wagers.  Evaluate and understand the stats, lines and try to think like a bookmaker. Work to become more proficient in anticipating line moves and setting your own lines. As you become more proficient in interpreting information, you’ll learn to better apply the information and insight to the betting line.

Best wishes as you shoot for more birdies and green on the gridiron, and remember to watch and follow the NFL advance lines along with my weekly Inside the Numbers articles at VegasSportsZone.com for statistical information to help you in your pursuit of profit.
