When it comes to moneyline betting, the lines with a plus symbol tell you the amount of money you’d win on a $100 wager, while odds with the minus sign indicate the amount you need to bet to win $100. What Is Moneyline Betting? To put it simply, a money line wager is betting on who will win the game. Unlike the points spread and totals bets, the money line is in no way concerned with how many points are scored or the margin of victory. You’ll know you’re looking at a money line.

You have to like how the Chiefs are playing right now. The Bucs have the defense and the edge rushers to cause QB Patrick Mahomes trouble, especially with LT Eric Fisher out with an Achilles tear, but Kansas City has been here before and is playing at a high level. The Chiefs have played with the lead all postseason and did it against the Bucs in the regular season.

The question is whether they can stave off a comeback.

As for the first half, bet the CHIEFS (-150).
