Patriots -5 Makes a Five-Point Win a Refund

By BetPhoenix Editorial Team updated

New England wins 7-6, and the moneyline cashes while Patriots -5 loses. Even a five-point Patriots win does not cash the spread—it only returns the stake.

On a $100 stake, Patriots -5 pays $90.91 in profit. The -240 moneyline pays $41.67. The extra $49.24 requires New England to win by six or more.

Game Snapshot
Wager: New England Patriots -5 (-110), full game including overtime.
Cash: New England wins by six or more.
Push: Exactly five points returns the stake. Loss: New England wins by four or fewer, ties, or loses.
Alternative: New England Patriots moneyline (-240).

The moneyline asks one question: did New England win? Patriots -5 asks for a much more specific answer—the win must clear five.

Lay Patriots -5 when your New England position requires separation. If an outright Patriots win is enough, the moneyline is the protection play.
