Welll it works both ways

in my example if you bet a heavy favorite $100 and you just bet them to win, you could make $10 profit, but with the spread you would get almost equal money back. It doesnt effect how much you need to bet just the rate of return on the money you are betting

Like for example the Patriots tonight were favored by 14 points. They were for sure going to win. If you were confident they would win by more than the 14 points you would take the spread to get the higher return on investment. If you lack confidence you would take the Money Line, which just means the team has to win without the spread
