Key Numbers


Key numbers in sports betting are specific point differentials that games often land on. For example, in the NFL, games frequently end with a score difference of 3, 4, or 7 points. Wise guys often bet on the side of the key number they believe will be most likely.

Q&A

  • What are some of the key factors that make the New York Giants a potentially successful team in the future?

    The Giants have a strong defensive front, a good left tackle, and a talented wide receiver. They also have a capable offensive coordinator in Brian Dable. If they can acquire a good quarterback, they could become a playoff contender.

  • What are some of the weaknesses of the Dallas Cowboys that could hinder their future success?

    The Cowboys are heavily reliant on CD Lamb and lack depth in other areas. Their offensive line is only average, and they don't have a strong running game. Their owner is also more focused on attention than winning championships.

  • What are some of the key numbers that bettors should consider when making NFL predictions?

  • What are some of the factors that make the Indianapolis Colts a potentially attractive bet against the Pittsburgh Steelers?

    The Colts are getting a point and a half at home against the Steelers, who are historically bad as road favorites. The Colts also have a strong offensive line that can create running lanes for Jonathan Taylor.

  • What are some of the reasons why the Arizona Cardinals might be a good bet against the Washington Commanders?

    The Commanders are coming off a short week and have a weak secondary. Kyler Murray plays well at home, and the Cardinals are a tough out.

  • What are some of the reasons why the Baltimore Ravens might be a good bet against the Buffalo Bills?

    The Ravens are getting a point and a half against the Bills, who are playing on a short week. Lamar Jackson has a good record as a short favorite or underdog. The Ravens' defense is also improving.
