5 Game Parlay Payout
Week 5 looks to be another wild week in the NFL with another Monday Night Football doubleheader due to rescheduling. To make your viewing experience even more enjoyable for Week 5, consider making a parlay bet. Parlay bets combine the outcome of multiple events to increase the potential payout to bettors.
Below, we will be creating a 5-bet NFL parlay for Week 5. This bet includes a few favorites and a few underdogs to increase the odds. Let’s take a look at our top Week 5 parlay.
Leg 1: Miami Dolphins (+330) at San Francisco 49ers

5-Pick Cross-Sport Super Bowl Parlay & Odds A five-game parlay on each of these sporting events in the EPL, NBA, NHL, college basketball, and NFL returns odds of +2812 with DraftKings. We’ve got a little bit of everything mixed in there to add to your Super Bowl excitement and hopefully provide you with a mega payout! Payouts on a 2 team parlay are standard throughout the industry at 13/5. Sportsbooks will pay $2.64 for every $1.00 wagered. The payout is re-calculated based on the reduced number of teams. With the exception of pushes, all wagers must win for the parlay to be considered a win. If one wager loses, the entire parlay loses. There are no partial payouts. You cannot include baseball five inning lines (5inn.) in parlays. You cannot include same game props in a.
Any good parlay starts off with a surprising long-shot pick. This week, I like the Dolphins to upset the 49ers. Miami has one of the most improved defenses in the NFL and is extremely well-coached. With the Dolphins getting CB Byron Jones back into the lineup, they match up well with the 49ers’ young receivers.
Look for QB Ryan Fitzpatrick to make enough plays to keep them in this game and pull off a massive upset Sunday afternoon.
Leg 2: Indianapolis Colts at Cleveland Browns (-106)
2 Game Parlay Payout
Arguably the most interesting game of the week features two unlikely 3-1 teams in the Indianapolis Colts and Cleveland Browns. With Cleveland being at home and Indianapolis suffering a few injuries to its linebacker corps, don’t be surprised if the Browns have a ton of success on the ground once again.
This looks like a game in which the Browns will need QB Baker Mayfield to create a few plays down the field, and he certainly has the weapons to do so. Look for this to be a back-and-forth contest with Cleveland ultimately covering the 1-point spread and winning outright at home.

Leg 3: Carolina Panthers at Atlanta Falcons -1.5 (-110)
The Falcons host the Panthers in Week 5 coming off a tough Week 4 road loss against the Green Bay Packers. Carolina has one of the worst defenses in the NFL and the Falcons should have no problem at all throwing on the Panthers.
While Falcons WR Julio Jones‘ status is up in the air, take the Falcons with confidence despite their 0-4 record. They are just a bad matchup for the young Panthers in Week 5.
Leg 4: Philadelphia Eagles (+270) at Pittsburgh Steelers
To increase the odds of this parlay some more, we need to pick another underdog. That’s why I am suggesting you consider betting on the Eagles to upset the Steelers in Pittsburgh.
The Steelers are coming off an unplanned bye week and it wouldn’t be a shock if they came out a bit rusty in this contest. The Eagles have historically played well against the Steelers, winning 12 of their last 17 meetings. If they can protect QB Carson Wentz, don’t be surprised if he carves up this secondary. Expect this to be a close contest throughout as it will likely come down to the final possession.
Leg 5: Los Angeles Chargers at New Orleans Saints -8 (-110)
5 Game Parlay Payout Payouts
If this parlay makes it to Monday Night Football, it wouldn’t be the worst idea to consider hedging considering the potential payout, but for the final leg of our parlay, we’ll be taking the Saints with the points against the Chargers.
The Saints have been incredible against AFC opponents, losing just once in their last 12 games. With this game scheduled to be played in New Orleans on primetime, expect both sides of the ball to show up for the Saints. It could prove to be too big of a stage for rookie QB Justin Herbert and that’s why it wouldn’t be a surprise if the Saints won this game by double digits.

I'm sure we've all been in a situation before where we stare at the list of games and think to ourselves -- if only I could hit a nice 10-team parlay. Now, depending on the odds of the games you selected, or the amount of money actually wagered on the parlay, this bet won't necessarily make you rich, but it could offer up a very nice four- or five-digit return. The problem with hitting a parlay that size is that it's damn near impossible to do. Most experienced bettors refrain from ever making parlay bets. Thankfully, for sportsbooks, parlays will always be a staple of the betting game since there is always the potential of that one big payout every square bettor chases.
In case you are new to the industry, a parlay is a type of bet that involves two or more teams. In order for a parlay bet to be successful, each team involved must win, or cover the spread - depending on how you bet them. A parlay can also be called an accumulator or a combo bet. Parlays are the most popular bet amongst amateur bettors since it has the potential for the biggest payout.
Different Types of Parlays
A parlay can have a combination of moneyline bets , point spread wagers and even include the 'over/under' option. Some sportsbooks allow bettors to include different kinds of prop bets, half-time wagers, different sports and sometimes even futures bets .
Depending on the type or parlay you make, the payout could be minimal or significant. A lot of things go into determining the odds, but the main thing you need to know is that not all sportsbooks offer up the same odds.
Generally speaking, a two-team point spread parlay will pay about 2.5/1, while a three-team parlay pays 6/1, a four-team parlay pays 10/1 and a five-team parlay pays 20-1. Obviously, the more teams you decide to put in your parlay, the higher the odds go.
If you decided to go the parlay route with your money, you must be completely educated on the rules. Do you know what happens if one of the games in your parlay is canceled or pushes on the total or point spread? If you're reading this, I'm assuming you don't, so let me give you a better understanding.
What Happens to My Bet If My Parlay Has a Canceled Game?
Whether you are playing a point spread parlay on football Sunday, or a moneyline parlay on Tuesday's baseball card, the answer to this question remains the same; 'it depends'.
It all depends on which sportsbook you are using and what their rules are for parlays. Most sportsbooks do not punish bettors for having a canceled game on their parlay ticket. The ticket will go on as if that canceled game never existed.
For example, if you put together a five-team parlay and the fourth game on your ticket between the New York Mets and Washington Nationals gets canceled due to rain, your parlay is still live, but it just reduces to a four-team parlay and the payout is adjusted accordingly.
What Happens to My Bet if My Parlay Has a Push On it?
This is where it gets a little bit dicey, but as I said above the answer still depends on which sportsbook you use. Most sportsbooks try to avoid setting full-point point spreads such as -3 or -7 in order to be able to declare a winning and losing side. If by the off chance you can get a whole number and that game happens to fall right on that number, most sportsbooks just void that leg of the parlay and reduce the payout to the next number - which is the same procedure as above. A five-team parlay would then turn into a four-team parlay and the odds would adjust.

However, it should be noted that some sportsbooks treat pushes as losses. That means that just because you got a great number of -3 instead of -3.5, you are still needing to win by four in order to avoid losing your parlay. These parlays increase the difficulty of the wager and should be avoided at all costs.
