ML stands for money line. Just like parlay, its another form of betting.

ML refers to Money line.......normally you make a bet with the pointspread (example- Green Bay Packers -7.5  $110 to win $100 and the Packers have to win by 8 for you to win your $100).  With the Moneyline (ML) the site will read -450, which means that you have to risk $450 to win $100 on the Packers straight up.  The Packers just have to win the game, not cover any amount of points.  This is risky as you can see because if the opposing, underdog team wins the game outright, then you are out $450.  Hope that helped clear it up.........

This matchup favors the Skins. If the game was in Seattle - I might have taken a different approach. But this particular game is going the Skins' way. RG3 and Wilson have lot in common. They're both mobile and have a strong arm. But that is where it stops. RG3 is way more creative kind of a QB. He is an NFL darling and Seattle knows that after getting a preferable treatment throughout the whole season - it will be no more. The Skins will practice whole week against the Seahawks alike offense and the Seahawks will do the same, but the edge of creativeness is important and that is something you can't practice against. Seattle defense that has been solid this season - will not contain healthier RG3 and healthier he will get as he young and full of motivation.

Final:
Parlay Double Play: HOUSTON Texans ML + GB Packers ML  (-112)  224$


the Texans ML + Packers ML   are you betting $224 to win $200 ?

Well, those odds were on 31st - when I published the posts here. Now I believe you'll have to pay 230$ to win 200$

Final:
HOUSTON Texans - CINCINNATI Bengals Under 42.5 (-110)  110$

I can see the Texans getting ahead and then taking long drives advancing first down after first down killing the clock pretty early in the game. The Bengals too have to exploit their running game to have a shot here. Stay tuned for the half time as well.

my book (SIA) offers aaron rodgers over under 15.5 rsh yds. I'm not typically a props player but I will tell you when he doesn't see a receiver he sure as hell doesnt hesitate to run. He will probably get that well before the half. just a thought

How about the sacks. Are they calculated as well as part of the rushing yards as a minus figure at your book?

Good question Mavin. No I looked into it and it said qb sack yds have no impact on rush yds. Warning: I am a GB fan so i could be accused of betting with my heart but I trust A Rodg to make wise decisions.

The Texans are worth a TD in this game. But why get greedy here. I'm leaning Houston -3 for the second half but not yet pulling the trigger. I also think that Under is a good bet as we although got 16 points in the first half - but truly - 9 points would fully illustrate what happened in the first half
