Foot­ball Play­off Odds Be Mind­ful of Fluctuations

The National Foot­ball League games are the most watched sport­ing events in the world. The tele­vi­sion rat­ings on the NFL games have soared through the roof. The NFL even has its own tele­vi­sion net­work and inter­est in the sport is rival­ing base­ball for being a topic of con­ver­sa­tion among sports fans through­out the year.

The NFL used to be strictly a Sun­day after­noon league. I remem­ber as a young­ster play­ing a bas­ket­ball game in the win­ter of 1961 and hav­ing more inter­est in the touch­down pass from Y.A. Tit­tle to Del Shofner than in com­plet­ing a three point play. I missed the free throw but the Giants beat the Eagles on that Sun­day afternoon.

Many of us devel­oped a pen­chant for the game of foot­ball in the glory days of the Green Bay Pack­ers. Under the tute­lage of leg­endary men­tor Vince Lom­bardi, “The Pack” dom­i­nated play in the 60’s. After drop­ping the Cham­pi­onship game of 1960 to quar­ter­back Norm Van Brock­lin and the Philadel­phia Eagles, Green Bay beat the Giants in the next two Cham­pi­onship games. The Pack­ers sub­se­quently lost the fol­low­ing two title con­tests to the Chicago Bears and Billy Wade in 1964 and to the Indi­anapo­lis Colts and Johnny Uni­tas in 1965. Cleve­land and Jim Brown upset Bal­ti­more for the Title that year. How­ever, Green Bay rebounded to win the title in the years 1966 and 1967, which included the first two Super Bowl Titles. These games fea­tured heavy play on the NFL foot­ball play­off odds.

The cus­tom of play­ing foot­ball play­off odds has been an Amer­i­can tra­di­tion for well over 60 years. Since the advent of the Super Bowl, the nation has made bet­ting the NFL foot­ball play­off odds the bet­ting event each win­ter. The mas­ter odd­s­mak­ers have always been metic­u­lous in the set­ting of the NFL foot­ball play­off odds. Occa­sion­ally though, the odd­s­mak­ers are thrown for a loop such as in the 1969 Super Bowl .The Indi­anapo­lis Colts were an eigh­teen point favorite and lost the game to Joe Willie Namath and the New York Jets. The NFL play­offs are the most pop­u­lar play­offs in the world.

Given that any­thing can hap­pen, all sports bet­tors should be mind­ful of fluc­tu­a­tions in the NFL foot­ball play­off odds. A good source for NFL play­off odds is Lines­Maker Sportsbook.
