Tough week for the favorites in the NFL indeed – nice effort on Monday night Baltimore! Hopefully the NFL teams fall back in line and allow the Handicappers to have a little success this week.
We have reached the halfway point of the 2010-11 NFL season as we enter Week 8, and the divisions are taking shape. My pick for Game of the Week is Minnesota at New England. This should be an epic battle between two of the NFL’s all-time best quarterbacks.
Here I take a look at the NFL Betting matchups, giving you some early insight that will help make your 2010 NFL wagers winners.
Last week eight home teams won straight-up but only seven won against the spread as seven road teams covered the points. For the sixth week in a row the total bet once again favored the ‘over’ as 10 games scored more points than the total line and only four scored less.
The old, grizzled gunslinger is going to mosey back into town for a showdown with his former protégé on Sunday.
In other words, Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings visit Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field on Sunday (4:15 pm ET, FOX), an NFL matchup many Football Betting fans have had circled on their calendars since the schedule was released.
There are a couple of great divisional match-ups this week that should not only be highly entertaining, but also have major implications for the division race. Minnesota will travel to Green Bay for round two of Favre vs. the Packers, the New York Giants head down 95 to play the Eagles, Miami heads north to the Meadowlands to play the Jets, and the Falcons will be in the Big Easy to play the undefeated Saints on Monday night.
We are halfway through the 2009 season and Week 8 hosts three of the best NFC match ups all year. The Philadelphia Eagles play host to rival New York Giants, the Arizona Cardinals get a home game against the Carolina Panthers and, the New Orleans Saints will square off against the Atlanta Falcons on Monday night. Big news from last year WEEK 8 was the Titans beating the Indianapolis Colts, going on to post a 13-3 record and winning the AFC South.
