The Utah Jazz (16-11 SU, 15-12 ATS, 16-10-1 O/U) will be looking to regain the consistency they lost just after the month of December began. After winning seven of its previous eight games, the Jazz have hone just 5-4 over its last nine game while alternating wins and losses in each of their last five games overall.
As 2009 draws to a close, we find ourselves smack in the middle of the bowls. You shouldn’t be bowled-out with football picks, either, as the bowls slowly build to the crescendo that is the Texas/Alabama showdown.
The average bettor looks at college football bowl games with the thoughts and images carried forward from the regular season. However this approach will not lead to a profitable bowl season most of the time. Just like handicapping other sports, there are keys to analyzing these games than just the records from the regular season and player match-ups, but the average bettor fails to realize this strategy.
The Washington Redskins may have just hired a new general manager and may be in the process of hiring a new head coach, but they still aren’t playing for next year quite yet.
In the Redskins last five games, they have two wins over the Denver Broncos and Oakland Raiders, and three losses by a combined seven points (losses to the Dallas Cowboys, Philadelphia Eagles and New Orleans Saints).

You know it’s been a strange year in college football betting when many people are anticipating secondary BCS bowl games like the Orange Bowl more than the BCS title game. The Rose Bowl, which pits Oregon versus Ohio State, may not give us the prestige of the national championship game or the fireworks of TCU/Boise State, but it could showcase an exciting Ducks offense at the very least.
Hockey betting fans sure are getting their money’s worth in December. Thanks to the approaching Winter Olympics, NHL teams are laboring through a condensed schedule this month that sees them play 15-plus games. That means we get many nights like tonight, when 22 teams are in action.
It’s been a good week for the NFC East so far as sportsbetting fans saw the Dallas Cowboys upset the previously unbeaten New Orleans Saints and the Philadelphia Eagles clinched a playoff berth with a win over the San Francisco 49ers.
On Monday Night Football, the remaining two NFC East teams will go head-to-head in a matchup of two teams with very differing goals.
Sunday, December 20 th – Giants Stadium, East Rutherford – 1:00 PM ET
NFL Point Spread:
The Atlanta Falcons, once a playoff threat, are on a two-game losing streak and are two games back of Dallas for the sixth seed in the NFC. But there are legitimate excuses to the Falcons unfortunate cold streak. Injuries to Matt Ryan and Michael Turner, their two biggest offensive stars, have sucked the life out of what was supposed to be a promising season.
The Dolphins lost their starting quarterback and starting running-back during the football betting season, but had depth in the wings with Chad Henne and Ricky Williams. The surging Dolphins clipped the Jaguars in the tail last weekend and now must push for a playoff spot by shattering the dreams of the Titans.

Games like this with a touchdown spread are seriously difficult to gage. I usually wait until the line dips a little lower for my liking but as long as this game is sitting underneath -8.0 in favor of the Eagles, I’m taking the Niners. San Francisco isn’t a great team, but they’re a sneaky team and a road team that can catch you off guard if you just think “Niners suck” and bet against them.
In their history against one another, the Patriots have been absurdly dominant against Buffalo. The Bills haven’t beaten New England in over five years, piling up a 0-10 SU record and a 3-7 ATS streak against the Pats.
Arizona Must Prove They Can Bounce Back Against Detroit
When the Cardinals lose, they lose badly. Committing seven turnovers against San Francisco is ungodly (sorry, Kurt) but the Cardinals remain in complete control of the NFC West.
Nobody’s touching this line right now because they have no idea what the St. Louis Rams are doing at quarterback. Kind of ironic that a one-win team is being led by a rookie with the last name “Null” but no matter who the Rams hand the reigns to is inconsequential. The Texans are a proven commodity on the road.
Vegas just loves the Steelers. A two-point advantage over the Packers is absolutely ridiculous. If anything, this game should be a pick ‘em.
