The third week of the NFL season was filled with plenty of drama, with many games going right down to the wire, and big ATS NFL handicapping money changing hands in the closing moments of games across the board.
Week 4 introduces bye weeks to the mix, making for one of the shorter boards of the season, meaning bettors will really need to be on point if they hope to pull one over on the books.
Game-day: 10/4/2009
Kick-off: 1:00 pm EST
One thing was obvious about the Detroit Lions last week in their victory over the Washington Redskins. That was that the Lions are a better team than anyone really knows. When rookie QB Matthew Stafford is given time, he can be every bit as effective as the Lions’ thought he would be when they drafted him #1 last April. The Lions’ defense has much better players and much better communication than the team in 2008.
Green Bay & Minnesota will be playing for more than just Brett Favre when they get together on Monday Night Football.

The Vikings are 3-0, thanks in large part to Favre’s last second heroics last week. They have won five straight games as divisional hosts but are 2-3 ATS in that span. They are also just 3-9 ATS in their L12 at home overall.
There have been plenty of surprises and disappointments over the first three weeks of the NFL season. Who would’ve thought the Broncos would be 3-0 or the Steelers would have dropped two out of their first three games.
