In this example, the Cleveland Browns were listed as a 5.5-point favorite against the Tennessee Titans. Looking at this from a money-line standpoint, Cleveland is a -245 favorite to win the game straight-up, compared to Tennessee at +210 to win the contest.

Cleveland -245 (Bet $100 to win $40.80)
Tennessee +210 (Bet $100 to win $210)

That number is set by oddsmakers after the spread is established but changes throughout the week based on the amount of money coming in on bets.

In this contest, Tennessee actually upset Cleveland, 43-13 in easy fashion to cash at +210 Money Line Odds. If you bet $100 on Tennessee to win the game outright, you receive the $210 for the winning ticket, plus getting back the $100 you placed on the game for a $310 victory.

However, going for it all by taking underdogs on the Money Line instead of taking the points turns out to be a tough pill to swallow.

In the 2019 season opener, Philadelphia closed as a hefty 10-point home favorite against Washington. The Eagles were -500 on the Money Line, while Washington was a juicy +425 to pull the road upset.

Philadelphia -500 (Bet $500 to win $100, Betting $100 wins only $20)
Washington +425 (Bet $100 to win $425)

Washington actually led this game, 20-7 at halftime, but was outscored, 25-7 in the second half to lose to Philadelphia, 32-27. If you took the points with Washington, you were a winner. However, if you backed Washington on the Money Line, you walk away with nothing as it lost the game straight-up.
