BROWNS + 9 MEANS THE OTHER TEAM IS FAVORED BY 9 |
|
Basically if the team has a negative symbol ( ex: -7 ) It means they are favored by that many points. They have to win by 8 points or more to "cover the spread" If they only win by 3 or 6 then they lose the spread. On the other hand the other team with the plus symbol means they are under dogs by 7 ( +7 ) . This means they are given 7 points as a handicap for the final outcome of the game. You decide if you go with giving 7 (-7) and they cover or you think they wont cover then you "take the points" +7. |
