How to use Lookahead Lines
We’ll be updating the NFL advance lines each week to allow you a sneak peak at the projected lines for the following week’s games. This advance information from top online sportsbooks provides lessons in understanding lines and projections before the current week’s games are played.
The tendencies for many bettors is to over-react to previous weeks’ scores and results. The lookahead lines provide a sense of stability from the linemaker, who is unbiased in setting the lines in advance without the information from the current week’s contests.
Bettors can also gain an edge or find value in the lines once the current week’s lines are released. They do this based on not only a potential over-reaction to the recent week’s results, but by using information they have on teams including power rankings. Making adjustments is part of the process, along with formulating an opinion on certain teams. This can be based on personnel, injuries, situations and stats that come to light as the season progresses.
As you become more astue in your evaluations, betting and handicapping, you’ll be able to use your skills to project and time the market better and make more +EV bets ahead of market moves.
As you evaluate, watch, wager and live bet on the Week 1 games, be sure you review boxscores, impactful injuries, misleading stats and meaningful data from each week’s results. From there you can see where the bookmaker posts the following week’s lines on Sunday and Monday, and compare them to the lookehead lines and market moves during the week.
In the weeks ahead, we’ll compare the lookahead lines to current lines following each week’s results. We’ll shoot to chip-in added insight on key injuries, stats and situatinos that impact the market moves, and shoot for more green and profit on our NFL underdog picks.
You can bet on it.
