NFL Furious Free Picks – Week 2 Preview

NFL Betting Line: Carolina -3 (37)
It’s the battle of the upstarts! As I said in the BetUS Endzone this week, Carolina is my official “Kitchen Sink” team of 2008. What’s a Kitchen Sink team? It means that they have to play perfectly to win the game. If they don’t, they get blown out in a big way. Last year’s team was Denver. This year’s is Carolina, which has talent to justify a 5-1 ATS record in their last six games. But there’s no way they can hold it up.
Chicago won a well coached battle against Indianapolis to reward those that instilled some betting faith in them with our NFL sportsbook. Chicago is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games and their stifling defense is finally healthy. Even if you don’t believe in Matt Forte, believe in a team that is too terrified to put the game in the hands of Kyle Orton. Love Chicago with points in this matchup.
