NFL Week In Review – The NFL Wagering Scoop Heading Into Week Three
Alright BetUS Sportsbook NFL bettors, another weekend of entertaining football has revealed a some more apparent facts about each NFL team and which direction they may be headed in with their respective NFL wagering statistics in the upcoming weeks.
Here then, are some things NFL bettors should have learned about team and the revealing facts that have been displayed through two weeks of play.
Packers 48 Lions 25
Packers’ quarterback Aaron Rodgers looks like a polished veteran and clearly has a grasp of Green Bay’s, (2-0 ATS) offense. The Lions are a mess again, though bettors can capitalize on Detroit’s weaknesses by taking the ‘Over’ (2-0 O/U), in the majority of their contests this season.
Giants 41 Rams 13
I can tell that winning the Super Bowl did tons for Eli Manning and the Giants’ (2-0 ATS) young players’ confidence. The Rams on the other hand look more pitiful than I thought they’d be. Wagering against St. Louis this season will likely turn out to be a winning bet on most occasions.
Titans 24 Bengals 7
I’m going to tell BetUS NFL bettors right now that the Titans will be a better offensive team now that veteran Kerry Collins has replaced Vince Young. Expect Tennessee to contend for the conference title – and with their strong defense – continue to pile up ‘Under’ (0-2 O/U) totals. The Bengals are having big problems on offense this season, so avoid the ‘Over’ (0-2 O/U), while betting against the Bengals when the NFL Odds call for it.
Panthers 20 Bears 17
Carolina, (1-01 ATS, 1-1 O/U), quarterback Jake Delhomme looks great and so does the Panthers’ defense. I also think Chicago is getting back to the phenomenal defense they displayed two years ago and will be a ‘lock’ to go ‘Under’ (0-2 O/U) more often than not.
49ers 33 Seahawks 30
While the 49ers are going to be mediocre at best this season, I’ve got to admit that the Seattle Seahawks (0-2 SU, 0-2 ATS) have been shockingly pitiful this season, particularly on defense. However, the good news for Seahawks backers is the fact that they look like they’re going to cover the ‘Over’ a lot with their nearly non-existent defense.
Patriots 19 Jets 10
I can easily see that the Patriots are still going to win more often than not with Matt Cassel at quarterback, though their ATS numbers from a season ago will definitely suffer (1-1 ATS). The Patriots are going to win with defense this season, so take New England to keep their game-day point totals ‘Under’ (0-2 O/U) the spread more often than not.
Broncos 39 Chargers 38
The Broncos, (2-0 SU, 1-0-1ATS) were one of my surprise teams to watch out for this season and with good reason – young quarterback Jay Cutler has finally arrived! Denver’s suddenly high-powered offense looks like a near lock to go ‘Over’ (2-0 O/U) the spread more often than not. I also expect San Diego to get on a roll very soon after getting off to an 0-2 start. With a serious lack of defense so far, the Chargers have hit the Over in each of their contests.
Steelers 10 Browns 6
The Steelers were another one of my surprise teams and I think they have a legitimate shot to win the AFC title this season, though their 1-1 ATS and O/U record suggest they may be a bit inconsistent with their wagering numbers this season. The Browns are already in big trouble, NFL bettors! Cleveland is averaging a whopping 8.0 points per game this season after lighting up the scoreboard all season long in 2007-08.
Cardinals 31 Dolphins 10
I called this game perfectly in the BetUS Sportsbook! The Cardinals were another one of my ‘surprise’ teams though, I won’t be surprised at all to see them post their first winning season in 10 years.
Buccaneers 24 Falcons 9
Both teams are an identical 1-1 this season across the board, (1-1 SU, 1-1 ATS, 1-1 O/U) but I like the Buccaneers, (38.5 combined ppg) to go ‘Under’ the spread more often than not while the Falcons, (44.0 combined points per contest) should go ‘Over’ in the majority of their contests.
Bills 20 Jaguars 16
The Bills are for real, BetUS NFL bettors! Buffalo is allowing just 13.0 points per game this season while scoring 27.0 points per contest. Ride ‘em while they’re hot and the NFL Odds look favorable. While the Jaguars are 0-2, I still believe they will contend for the AFC tile, but whether they contend or not, NFL bettors should be thinking all abut the ‘Under’ (0-2 O/U) in Jacksonville’s games.
Redskins 29 Saints 24
I picked the Saints to reach the NFC title game, but whether they accomplish that feat or not, NFL bettors should take the ‘Over’ (2-0 O/U) in their contests right now. I also think Washington’s offense will improve as the season goes on, so lean toward the ‘Over’ in their contests.
Colts 18 Vikings 15
I said it last week and I’ll say it again – Viking quarterback Tavaris Jackson is holding his team back on offense, (18.0 ppg), not helping them – all while looking like a nervous rookie half the time. If the Vikes can’t throw the ball effectively, they’re going to be in big trouble!
Raiders 23 Chiefs 8
I picked this game perfectly for BetUS NFL bettors also, knowing full well that the Chiefs are going to be one of the worst teams in the league while the Raiders run for tons of yardage – whomever their head coach is next week. The ‘Under’ will be a lock in Chiefs’ games all season long for NFL bettors while the Raiders backers will have to watch their matchups closely each week.
