Tracking current NFL scores isn’t just a fun pastime to stay in touch with the action. When you are a football bettor, watching NFL score updates helps you monitor your wagers to see how profitable your day is shaping up. It also provides some instant handicapping for halftime odds and second-half betting. The odds posted are courtesy of one of our top-ranked sportsbooks, 5Dimes.

You visit the NFL scores page and see the Patriots are leading the Bills 28-0 at halftime. If they are favored by only 3 points and the total is 37.5, you can pretty much bank those bets as victories. Now it may be time to explore ways to really add some profits. Is Buffalo likely to come out swinging in the second half, trailing 28-0 at halftime? Probably. What is the second-half point spread? What is the second-half total? Maybe your favorite sportsbook (such as Bodog) is offering rushing yard props in the second half. It’s a pretty good handicapping angle to think Buffalo will be throwing on most downs, while the Patriots will look to run and grind the clock. These are more ways the NFL scoreboard is more than just an informational page. It’s a handicapping page that can help lead you to greater profits. Bookmark this page, as we have big plans for developing this into a featured area of the site. Good luck and make sure you study the live NFL odds on every game and the corresponding matchup report and previews.
