2023 NFL win totals, awards odds, lines, picks, football predictions: Expert eyes 200-1 prop bet

Sportsbooks have a complete list of 2023 NFL futures odds available for bettors of the new NFL season, which begins on September 7. There are 2024 Super Bowl odds, season win totals and 2024 MVP futures in the NFL betting markets. Kansas City and Philadelphia are the favorites to win their respective conferences and have the highest 2023 NFL win totals at 11.5. Should you target either with your 2023 NFL picks? Other popular NFL odds include division winners and player stat totals.

With so many NFL futures markets to choose from, it is important to read through quality NFL betting advice first. Before making any NFL picks or 2023 NFL futures bets, be sure to see the latest NFL predictions from SportsLine's top NFL handicappers, R.J. White, Larry Hartstein, Mike McClure and Alex Selesnick.

Hartstein tied for 52nd place (out of 1,598 entries) in the 2022 Westgate Las Vegas SuperContest, going 53-34-3 ATS (61 percent). Those selections formed the basis of his SportsLine NFL best bets article, which finished 36-25-1. Entering the 2023 season, Hartstein is 521-427 all-time on NFL sides and props (plus $3,679 for $100 players, every bet 1 unit) at SportsLine, including 468-396 ATS.

McClure is a professional DFS player and SportsLine predictive data engineer, specializing in player projections and advanced statistical analysis. McClure has nearly $2 Million in DFS winnings in addition to being recognized in the book "Fantasy Football (and Baseball) for Smart People: How to Turn your hobby into a Fortune" as a top Daily Fantasy Baseball Player.

CBS Sports' managing editor of Fantasy and gambling, White twice has cashed huge in the world's most prestigious handicapping tournament, the Westgate Las Vegas SuperContest. He went 535-450-30 on ATS picks from 2017-22, returning $3,532 to $100 players.

Since joining CBS Sports in 2021, Selesnick (aka PropStarz) has delivered consistent winners on SportsLine.com and "The Early Edge," the popular daily show hosted by Jonathan Coachman. He is 309-231 (plus 61.09 units with every bet 1 unit) in the NFL.

Now, White, Hartstein, McClure and Selesnick have revealed their 2023 NFL futures picks for every team. You can head to SportsLine to see them.

Top 2023 NFL futures bets

White and Hartstein are both targeting under 7.5 wins for the Chicago Bears for a +105 payout. The Bears are coming off a 3-14 record in 2022, so they would need to more than double their win total to go over this number. They struggled to win close games, finishing the season with a 1-7 record in games decided by eight points or fewer. It was not necessarily just bad variance, though, as they had a losing record against the spread during those contests as well.

Quarterback Justin Fields was a one-man show last year and the offseason improvements made by the front office will not be enough to more than double the team's win total. Chicago's defense ranked No. 28 in EPA per handoff allowed in 2022 and was dead last in EPA allowed per drop-back in the passing game, according to Football Outsiders. The defensive line remains a weak spot this year, so there are plenty of reasons to back the under on Chicago's win total. Head to SportsLine now to see the rest of White, Hartstein, McClure and Selesnick's picks broken down by team.
