One of the best ways to gain an advantage when betting on sides or totals is to shop for the best line. Closing Line Value is a common buzzword in the sports betting community but someone who gets closing line value is a good indicator of someone who is a long-term winning bettor. Knowing where to grab the best line and aid in netting closing line value has never been easier with our game odds table.
A great example for week one is the matchup between the Washington Commanders and the Jaguars. The commanders are 3.5-point favorites on BetMGM but are 4.5-point favorites on Ceasars. If you like the Commanders to cover, taking the 3.5 is better than the 4.5 on Ceasars. The same applies for the opposite with the Jaguars.
This odds table also has some other features worth mentioning. Opening lines (O) are what sportsbooks opened the line at initially. Consensus (C) is the most common line across all sportsbooks. Comparing the opening line to the consensus line is helpful to see which way the line has moved since opening.
