The sportsbook's line, not our projection: (total ± spread) ÷ 2 gives each team's share of the points. The ladders below start from these lines; our own number comes next.

the line
We're within a point of the line: the plays, the TDs and the market all tell the same story.
For your bet: This number explains the game; it isn't a bet against the line. Tested on 336 games it never saw (2025–2026), the line was closer to the final margin 59% of the time, and betting our number against it won only 44%. The full record

Spread ladder
For your bet: NO wins outright 47% of the time in games like this, so a fair moneyline is +114. Anything longer is value; anything shorter isn't.
Show the 708 games behind these numbers
Every NFL regular-season game 2006–2026 where the favorite laid 1 to 2 points (as close to 1.5 as gives at least 300 games), and how it finished. Each bar is how many games the favorite won by that margin; below zero, the underdog won.
- Chance: the share of those games. “MIN by 7+” = games won by 7 or more ÷ all 708.
- Fair odds: the price with no bookmaker cut, where you'd break even over time. 50% is +100; 25% is +300; 75% is −300. Pushes are set aside.
- Key numbers (outlined): 3 and 7 are the most common margins, a field goal and a touchdown.
- Checked: we re-test this on every update. See how close it's been.

Fair price +105 · at −110 it's overpriced: about −7¢ per $1
Pick the bet your book offers and type its price. Win, push and lose are the share of the same past games. Value is the chance of winning × what you'd win, minus the chance of losing × your stake; within 2¢ per $1 we call it fair.
Total ladder
For your bet: Totals have no big key numbers: no single final total happens much more than 4% of the time. Don't pay extra juice to move a total by half a point.
Show the 2,707 games behind these numbers
Every NFL regular-season game 2006–2026 with a half-point total, and how far the final score landed from its posted total. Shown here as if the total had been 42.5. Totals move with the era, so the line itself sets the middle, and history sets the spread around it.
Touchdowns move this game
If he scores…
- Aaron Jones Sr. scores → MIN covers 60% (vs 42% when their RB doesn't)
- Alvin Kamara scores → NO covers 60% (vs 42% when their RB doesn't)
- Kyler Murray throws 2+ TDs → the over hits 68% (vs 34%)
- Tyler Shough throws 2+ TDs → the over hits 68% (vs 34%)
These are averages for every starting RB (3,277 games) and QB (3,631 games) 2019–2026, not numbers for these players. The players are this week's likeliest scorers on Boom TD!.
For your bet: These legs move together. An anytime TD plus his team covering hits about 19% more often than the two chances multiplied, so it's a natural same-game parlay. Check the parlay price against that.
