What a ride it was for the 2020 Washington Football Team; a new name, a new team president, a new head coach, and a new chapter was in store. However, reports of malfunction and abuse littered their season and owner Dan Snyder, leading them to a 7-9 season finish. Thanks to a horrid NFC East, 7-9 was just good enough for the Football Team to secure a berth in the NFC Playoffs. Washington was the one that didn’t belong in the NFC Playoffs and were treated as such– they were eliminated in the first round despite an inspired day from Taylor Heinicke.

Now, it’s onto the offseason where the Football Team is poised to lose several veterans. Linebacker Thomas Davis announced his retirement following their loss and longtime Washington players Ryan Kerrigan is a looming free agent. While this offseason might be a mass exodus of the familiar players in burgundy and gold, there’s young pieces like Antonio Gibson and Terry McLaurin that put them in a good place moving forward.

The defensive front is also mostly here to stay, led by rookie Chase Young and sophomore Montez Sweat. For the first time in forever, the future may be bright in DC.

Washington prop bets

SIDELINE FOOTBALL by FTP Sports Games is a full simulation of the game of Professional or College football. The game engine is designed around an individual player's ability or inability to win battles or one-on-one matchups. Each play from scrimmage calls on one or more players to make a play that will influence the result. The referee is the lead official that has control of the game and is generally the final.

Prop bets are based on individual performance, typically surrounding players. Terry McLaurin was a popular target for prop betting this past year along with running backs J.D. McKissic and Antonio Gibson. For example, McLaurin’s projected receiving total in Washington’s Week 11 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals was 67.5 yards. Those who thought he would haul in 68 or more yards would bet the over while those who thought he would record 67 or less yards would bet the under. McLaurin pulled in 84 yards that game, giving those who bet the over a win.

Washington futures odds

Futures are long-term bets that can range from an offseason to a full season (or beyond). Team win totals, award winners, and player performance are common futures. For example:

2020 Odds to win NFL DROY

• Chase Young -110
• Patrick Queen +450
• Kenneth Murray +1000
• Jaylon Johnson +1500

This line for the Defensive Rookie of the Year would often be bet before the season starts. Futures allow for bettors to capitalize on players they think are favorites to win awards long before the odds shift away from their favor. Chase Young opened as the favorite to win the award, but those odds continued to grow toward him as the season went on. He closed at -375, diminishing the return on bets compared to the beginning of the year when he won the award in December.

How to bet on the Washington Football Team

Moneyline

The moneyline is the simplest of bets, decided by the straight-up winner and loser of each game. Consider the following example:

• Washington -185
• Eagles +210

Washington is considered a heavy favorite in this matchup (indicated by -185), requiring a $185 bet to win $100 (plus the initial bet back). The Eagles are the underdog in this matchup, paying out $310 total for a $100 bet ($210 in winnings). How much either team wins or loses by does not matter in moneyline betting, the payout remains the same.

Point spread

Betting on the point spread is determinant on how many points a team wins or loses by. Take the following example:

• Washington -3.5 (-110)
• Broncos +3.5 (-110)

In this example, Washington is favored by 3.5 points, indicated by “-3.5.” If the Football Team wins the game 24-20, Washington (-3.5) wins the bet and would have a total payout of $19.09 on a $10 bet ($9.09 in profit). If the Broncos keep the game within four and lose 27-24, the Broncos (+3.5) would win, and the payout would be the same as listed above.

Point total (over/under)

The point total refers to the over/under line set by books. This number projects the total number of points scored in a game and, like prop betting, is bet whether one thinks the score will go over or under the set point total. For example, Washington’s Week 15 game against the Seattle Seahawks had a projected point total of 41.5 points. The Football Team came up just short 20-15, totaling just 35 points. Those who bet the under in the game would have cashed out.

Washington fielded one of the nastiest front fours in the NFL, often wreaking havoc for opponents. Also, their six annual games against the offense-depleted NFC East caused their projected point totals to often be lower than league average. Aside from games against offensive juggernauts like Cleveland and the Los Angeles Rams, Washington saw over/unders between 43 and 48 points in 2020.

In-play and live betting

Sometimes, the most thrilling and rewarding bets are bets made while games are being played. These are referred to as live bets or in-play bets. Odds are ever-changing during games, which would prove to be fruitful for sharp and prepared bettors. For example, if Washington (-100) was favored against the Raiders (+140) before kickoff, a payout on a $10 bet on the Football Team to win would win $10.

However, say the Football Team fell to a big 17-3 deficit in the first half despite controlling the overall game (due to a costly turnover or special teams gaffe). Odds may swing in favor of the Raiders, who may be a -110 favorite at halftime. Taking Washington to come back and win the game could present plus-odds (say, +130). Should a bettor take Washington (+130) at halftime and the Football Team pulls off the comeback, winners would win $13 instead of $10 (plus the initial $10 bet).

What's The Line On The Football Game

This could also be an effective way to “hedge” your bet; say a bettor took the Raiders (+140) in that game, but Washington jumps out to a 20-0 first quarter lead and is controlling the overall feel of the game, bettors could hedge by throwing some money down on Washington (-270) to return some of the inevitably-lost bet.

Parlays and teasers

You can always string bets together in the form of parlays or teasers. Usually during busy Sundays, bettors can parlay several teams to win or cover against the spread and if all bets are successful, the payouts are multiplied. Teasers function similarly, except they allow bettors to move each point spread to a more favorable line in exchange for diminished odds.

Washington 2020 recap

What's The Line On The College Football Game Tonight

Record: 7-9

Record ATS: 9-7

Over/under record: 5-11

There’s not a lot fans can complain about after securing a division title and a playoff spot, despite Washington’s 7-9 record. Subpar quarterback play seemed to be the sole factor holding this team back in 2020 despite an array of weapons surrounding Alex Smith and Taylor Hienicke. The pass rush of Washington was one of the best in the league and the young corps of players, led by Defensive Rookie of the Year Chase Young and Montez Sweat, will be looking to replicate their production in 2021.

The record that stands out is their record against the point total in 2020. Their 5-11 mark was tied for second worst in the league, but did prove to be the winning factor in games against San Francisco, Philadelphia, and– most importantly– Pittsburgh. Washington also posted an optimistic 9-7 record against the spread, many of the wins coming during a late-season four-game win streak that ultimately secured the NFC East title.

Washington 2021 offseason moves

The Football Game On Youtube

Key free agents: Ryan Kerrigan (EDGE), Ronald Darby (CB), Kevin Pierre-Louis (LB)

What's The Line On The Nfl Football Games Today

Draft pick position needs: QB, OT, WR, CB, S

Longtime Washington player Ryan Kerrigan is set to be a free agent and a pricey one at that. Kerrigan comes with a $23.7 million guaranteed price tag and with such a deep corps of talented pass rushers, it’s expected that the team moves on from him. Ronald Darby will likely be back with the team barring another team outbidding them and Kevin Pierre-Louis will be a priority to be re-signed with the retirement of Thomas Davis.

While they’ve been under the radar in the 2020 offseason quarterback market, it’s worth noting that Washington offered their first round pick to Detroit for Matthew Stafford. Their name has not come up with players like Deshaun Watson, but it’s out there that Washington is being aggressive in pursuit of a quarterback. One intriguing move could come in the draft where Washington packages together a trade to move up– potentially into the top 10 at spots like 7 (currently held by Detroit) to draft a top-four quarterback. Names like North Dakota State’s Trey Lance have emerged in this conversation and, barring the top four quarterbacks being drafted with the first four picks, Washington might just be looking to move up to grab one.
