Week 13 NFL Lines: Eagles vs. Falcons

NFL Betting – Shorthanded Falcons No Match For Eagles

The Atlanta Falcons will be very shorthanded this weekend as the Philadelphia Eagles visit. They’ll be without their starting quarterback and starting running back, which is already more starters than they missed all of last year.

Last season, the Falcons only missed one starter for any games as left tackle Sam Baker missed 11 starts. This year has been a very different story as the Falcons, who are already without Harry Douglas, William Moore, Brian Williams and Michael Schneck for the season, and have missed Ovie Mughelli, Jerious Norwood, Michael Turner and Brian Finneran for multiple games, will now be without Turner and Matt Ryan for this week.

NFL WEEK 13 – TITANS vs COLTS

For those of us concerned that the undefeated Colts would just kick back for the rest of the season and make wagering on them the mother of all uncertain sciences, rest assured that Indy will keep the pedal to the meal for at least the next few weeks.

Week 12 NFL Lines: MNF Patriots vs. Saints

Monday Night Football Betting – Saints To Squeak By Patriots

The New Orleans Saints may be one of two undefeated teams in the NFL this year but you can rest assured that they will be measuring themselves against the New England Patriots, who are the barometer of success in the NFL.

The Saints have been impressive this year on both sides of the ball, which very well may be the difference in this game. Not only is the Saints offense dominating, the defense has been making plays as well as the additions of coordinator Gregg Williams and safety Darren Sharper have had a huge impact.

Time: 8:30 ET
Venue: Louisiana Superdome
Pats vs. Saints Monday Night Football Lines
MoneyLine: Currently OFF

Week 12 NFL Lines: Colts vs. Texans

NFL Betting – The More Things Change, The More They Stay The Same For The Texans

The Houston Texans have done some growing in their fourth year under head coach Gary Kubiak. After finishing 8-8 in the previous two seasons, they have made a reason push for the playoffs. Unfortunately, some fourth quarter failures have left the Texans at their typical .500 and they are 5-5 after 10 games.

It’s about time to start protecting the good women and children in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. It’s nearly December, and watching the Dallas Cowboys play in December has forced hundreds of thousands of football fans to avert their eyes.

Week 11 NFL Lines: MNF Titans vs. Texans

Monday Night Football Betting – Texans Try To Cool Streaking Titans

The Houston Texans will try to pick up the pieces after a discouraging loss prior to their bye week as the streaking Tennessee Titans visit on Monday night.

The Texans are currently at 5-4 and need a win to hang around in the mix for an AFC Wild Card berth. As of now, they would lose out on a tiebreaker with the Jacksonville Jaguars if they both finished with the same record but the Texans play the Jaguars in a couple of weeks.

Venue: Reliant Stadium
Ravens vs. Browns Monday Night Football Lines

Week 11 NFL Lines: Redskins vs. Cowboys

Sunday NFL Betting – Redskins In Tough Against Cowboys

The Washington Redskins and Dallas Cowboys rivalry typically produces tight, close contests. That might not be the case this Sunday for a number of reasons.

The Redskins defense has been decent this year and the addition of high-priced defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth has had a ripple effect. Last year, the Redskins had just 24 sacks but as they head to Week 11, they already have 24 sacks on the year and are on pace for 45, which is their highest total since 1991.

Week 11 NFL Lines: Eagles vs. Bears

Sunday Night Football Betting – Eagles To Dominate Bears

The Sunday Night Football game this weekend matches up two teams jockeying for NFC Wild Card playoff positioning and while both teams are close in standing, they are far apart in talent.

Week 11 NFL Spreads: Falcons vs. Giants

NFL WEEK 11 – FALCONS vs. GIANTS

Be honest. You didn’t see this coming, did you? Nobody figured the Giants to slide into the tank like this – four straight losses, after five straight wins to open the season, slip sliding to the point where today the East Rutherfords are just another team that will have to find a way to win some late-season games to remain relevant in the playoff picture.

Week 11 NFL Spreads: Colts vs. Ravens

NFL WEEK 11 – COLTS vs. RAVENS

“If you spend your life walking along the edge of a cliff,” said the teacher to the student, “one day you will surely fall over.”

So you have to wonder a bit about the Colts, who have pretty much locked up the AFC South but danced away from defeat for three straight weeks and now find themselves undefeated (9-0) heading into late November.

Week 10 NFL Lines: MNF Ravens vs. Browns

Monday Night Football Betting – Browns and Ravens Fans Won’t Show Up On Monday

The good news is that the Cleveland Browns record didn’t get worse this week. The bad news? The team did in fact get worse during it’s week off.

NFL Week 10: Cowboys vs. Packers Predictions

NFL Betting Preview – Dallas Cowboys vs. Green Bay Packers

The switch has been flipped in Dallas and that’s a dangerous thing for what’s starting to be a muddled NFC championship picture. The Cowboys still have to prove that they can string wins together in January, but for now they’re en route to the playoffs. It’s the exact opposite route the Green Bay Packers are taking this season after giving the Tampa Bay Buccaneers their first win of the season.
