How to win betting NFL

If you want to know how to win betting NFL games in 2022, then you came to the right place. No one can guarantee you will be successful, but I can guarantee you will fail if you do not have a plan. Grinding out profits betting on sports is a marathon, not a sprint. It requires discipline, practice, and a keen understanding of the markets you are betting into. It also becomes much easier to be profitable when you get to play with someone else’s money. Learning how to maximize a sports betting sign up bonus is the cheat code. This is why I am confident I can teach you how to win betting NFL football this season. 

Sports Betting sign up Bonus

One of the best ways to become profitable is by maximizing every sports betting sign up bonus. Online sports books want your business. They want it so bad that they are willing to pay you for it. Some books will offer you free bets. Others will offer insurance on your first bet. Some still offer you straight cash bonuses matching your deposit up to a certain amount. From our sports book partners at FTNBets alone, you receive thousands of dollars in free bets. To understand how to maximize the different bonus types, click here

A new sports betting customer can instantly have over $5,000 worth of betting power added to their bankroll by taking advantage of the sign up bonuses. Here’s how to do it:

1- The FanDuel Sportsbook currently offers $150 in free bets to any new customer that makes at least a $5 bet. That’s $145 in free money I would look to take advantage of first. Win with those free bets and you can double up to $250-$300 quickly. 

2- BetRivers and Unibet both offer bet insurance up to $250 on your first bet. That means you should deposit and make your first wager of at least $250 to maximize the bonus. If you doubled up on FanDuel already, you should have over $250 to deposit in one of these books and two chances to win a bet to make that double again. 

3- PointsBet is offering up to $500 insurance on your first bet. If you were able to double your $250 on either BetRivers or Unibet, you can now roll that into your next wager of $500 after you sign up to maximize the bet insurance PointsBet offers. 

4- Winning or doubling up on PointsBet would now leave you with $1000 in your bankroll. That is the amount of money DraftKings is offering to give you as a first deposit match bonus. The DraftKings money is released on a slow drip. Around $1 is released for every $25 wagered. It takes awhile to play through it, but you do have 18 weeks of NFL game and the playoffs, as well as bets you place on other sports during that time. 

5- BetMGM offers first bet insurance up to $1,000. I prefer the safer route of DraftKings deposit match first, but you can also go for the big score with two chances on BetMGM due to the free bet payout on the risk insurance. If you have a large enough bankroll, I would max out both of these offers. If you can only afford one $1,000 deposit, then keep it together in one book and take advantage of the other offer after you use up whichever you choose to do first. 

6- Finally Caesars offers the biggest first bet insurance number at $1,250 + some other Caesars rewards perks to new sign ups. If you can afford to take advantage of these offers by maxing out your first deposit at $1,250, then that is the most optimal way to use it. You can use each offer only once in your home state, so it makes sense to max it out if you can to get the best bang for your gambling bucks. 

Pro Tip: The sports book bonus system is broken up on a state by state basis, even from within the same sports book.  A player can sign up for a new account in more than one state and get the bonus for a second or third time. If you live close to a border between two legal sports betting states, it is definitely worth it to drive across state lines and see which books you would be eligible to max out the bonus for more than once. 

A New Jersey resident can open up a BetMGM account in NJ and then take the ferry across the river to NYC to sign up for a NY account. They are eligible for bonus money in both states. A south Jersey resident can do the same thing on Unibet and collect a $250 free bet insurance in NJ before driving into Philadelphia and signing up to receive the same first bet bonus offer in PA. 

A savvy sports bettor could travel to a different state each week of the NFL season maxing out bonus money along the way. If you happen to find yourself in a state other than the one you call home during any weekend of the NFL season, keep this little trick in mind. The drawback is you have to fill out the new account information each time you travel to a new state. It is tedious, but for a couple hundred bucks in bonuses, it is worth it.
