NFL Week 5: Best live bet strategy for Sunday's games, including potential Tom Brady dominance

The best live bet strategy for Sunday's games is to bet the live under. Rams-Cowboys live betting game plan is Rams under, if the line goes above 43. If the Lions abandon the run early, bet Patriots team total under and consider Detroit alt line.

There are 14 live betting games on Sunday. New England Patriots are favored to win against Detroit Lions. The pre-game line is Patriots -3, 45.5.

The Patriots are running the ball well, but they have been terrible at passing the football in obvious passing situations. The game script depends on the outcome. The Patriots' run game is third in EPA, while the Lions' are 32nd in EA.

As live bettors, we get to decide on the bet depending on how the game script emerges. If the Patriots are forced into a pass-heavy script, it might just get ugly.

Bucs success on early downs has hinged on their run-pass ratio. The team is 10-point favorites this week. It's unclear how they will approach their early-down run/pass ratios.

The live bettor will be able to tell quickly how the Bucs plan to approach this game. If the Buccaneers are running early and often, the Falcons' live spread/moneyline becomes intriguing.

If Tom Brady comes out passing early and often, look for a dominating blowout of the Falcons.

The chart is becoming one of our favorites for live betting.

Both the Rams and Cowboys are above average on scripted pays, but they are struggling to score once the scripted plays finish. If the live line rises well above 43, bet the under.
