NHL Hockey: Week 1 Lines Value

NHL Week One Betting – Opening Week Value

Online sports wagering enthusiasts and hockey betting sharps are primed for the start of the NHL season, as there is tremendous NHL betting value to take advantage of as early as this weekend.

One typical betting trend when it comes to early season NHL games is high scoring. Generally, it takes goaltenders a few weeks or so to get into a rhythm once again, and coaches like to alternate between their starter and backup to begin the season, so as to give both ‘keepers a look.

Sooners vs. Longhorns Betting – Handicapping Pick

Bet Sooners In Red River Shootout!

This game will prove to be everything that the USC-OSU letdown wasn’t. Both teams are itching to prove themselves, despite some defensive lapses. The Sooners are the best team in the country, and Sam Bradford is out to prove that he is Heisman worthy. The one thing standing in their way is Texas’s Colt McCoy and his road warrior Longhorns.

The Jacksonville Jaguars (2-3 SU, 1-4 ATS, 3-2 O/U), had high hopes of making their first Super Bowl appearance this season after a recording a promising 11-5 record in 2007, but are in serious danger of even making the playoffs this season even at this early juncture of the 2008 regular season.

Patriots vs. Chargers SNF Week 6

NFL Week Six Trends – New England Patriots vs. San Diego Chargers

No Tom Brady? No problem! The New England Patriots came out last weekend after a bye week and showed why they are easily still one of the top teams in the AFC. The most impressive thing I saw out of this team, as an online betting fan, was how they got Randy Moss into the game early. With Moss catching passes, this team is very difficult to beat. That’s exactly what they did. Moss catches passes, New England plays well, and the Patriots beat the NFL online betting spread of 3 points by winning their game versus the 49’ers by 9 points.

Cappers Bengals vs. Jets Betting Trends + Pick

Brett and the Jets Look to Light up Struggling Bengals

The last time New York Jets (2-2 SU, 2-2 ATS, 2-2 O/U) quarterback Brett Favre took the field, he tossed a career-high six touchdown passes.

Playing against the lowly Cincinnati Bengals (0-5 SU, 2-3 ATS, 2-3 O/U) this week at Giants Stadium could allow Favre to tie or even surpass that personal record as the winless Bengals don’t figure to offer much resistance as they seek their first win of the 2008-09 NFL season.

Dysfunctional Raiders Visit Self-Destructive Saints

Why anyone would want to coach the dysfunctional Oakland Raiders (1-3 SU, 2-2 ATS, 3-1 O/U), these days is beyond me, but new head coach Tom Cable is clearly in over his head with a franchise that is totally ‘lost in the sauce.’

Perplexing Buccaneers Look to Tame Surprising Panthers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-2 SU, 4-1 ATS, 3-2 O/U), have a winning record after five games but are coming off a dismal 16-13 road loss to the Denver Broncos on Sunday in the BetUS Sportsbook.

The Carolina Panthers (4-1 SU, 3-1-1 ATS, 1-4 O/U), on the other hand, have won and covered the spread in two straight games, including Sunday’s 34-0 home blowout of the abysmal Kansas City Chiefs.
