What Is An NFL Parlay

An NFL parlay is a type of bet where you combine multiple selections into a single wager. For an NFL parlay to win, all of the selections or bets need to win. While the difficulty of winning an NFL parlay increases with each selection you add, the odds can also greatly increase. To calculate the odds of a parlay you multiply the odds of the individual selections so the more selections, the bigger the parlay odds. You can also make use of our Parlay Calculator to take care of all of the math for you. For more on Parlays be sure to check out our Parlay betting guide.

NFL Parlay Strategies & Tips

Parlay Bets despite their popularity can be one of the most difficult and lucrative bets, with increased difficulty with each selection you add.
Here are three quick tips to better your chances of winning long-term with your NFL Parlays

1. Stick to 2, 3, or 4 team parlays – Any more than this will often not be profitable long term despite the increased parlay odds.
2. Shop around for odds – Not all online sportsbooks offer the same odds, and while there is often only a marginal difference if you can wager three picks at -105 each instead of -120, your payout would be $744.21 instead of $616.20 to a $100 stake.
3. Manage your bankroll – Being disciplined with your bankroll is key long term as not all parlays will win, particularly in the NFL, but if you keep your stake consistent, at odds of around 6/1, you only need to win 1 in 7 parlays to break even, any better than that is profit.

How to bet on NFL Picks and Parlays

What is an NFL Teaser Bet?

One of the ways to avoid the frustration of losing an against-the-spread bet by a point or two is with teaser NFL picks. For example, in a 2-team teaser, you get 6 points placed in your direction (-7 spread becomes -1) for both games. The caveat is that both teams must cover for your ticket to be graded a winner and the odds are similar to a single-game bet. Conversely in a parlay, you still wager on two teams but with the original spread and with better payout odds (usually 3:1). Teasers and parlays can be played with 2,3,4,5 teams or more.

What Is A Same Game Parlay

A Same Game Parlay is just like a regular parlay wager, except all selections come from prop bets within one specific match. The obvious positive of a Same Game Parlay is that by combining multiple selections you can go for an even bigger win with the odds increasing with each selection.

Bettors will often use Same Game Parlays to wager on correlated props, and if you get it right the payouts can be huge. Take, for example, a team facing a poor pass defense with an elite QB, in that spot, you might take the QB to hit over their passing yards total and you can also parlay that with their favorite wide receiver to score anytime over their receiving yards total.
