re: Week 1 NFL Betting Thread

Bengals are at (+8.5) on 5dimes. Anyone looking make a play if it jumps to (+9)?

How'd you do this weekend in the NFL?

Congrats.

How do you feel about Saints (-2.5) @ Carolina? Saints, on offense, just shot themselves in the foot yesterday. Colston lost that fumble inside our 15 and had a few drops.

Carolina didn't look all that great either. You think New Orleans gets it together and corrects their mental mistakes this week against an overvalued Cam Newton? Or does the NOLA defense lube themselves up for another thrashing?

I like the Cowboys -3 at Seattle

Back to back road games for the Cowboys. Long road trips at that. Not to mention Seattle is a TOUGH place to play.

Don't over value that win against the Giants. The giants secondary has always been questionable and the giants went 9-7 last year. Not like they were a dominant team. Just got hot at the right time.

I'm gonna wait on this one for now.

I'm on Ravens -6.5 and Chargers -1

Cinci is at (+8) right now. If it goes much higher, I may take Cinci and the points.

I'm already looking at next week:
Redskins are (-3) @ St Louis
Broncos are (+3) @ Atlanta

RGIII is going to be good, but he was facing a completely disrupted team and one of the worst defenses in the league with an injured corner. Not to mention the Rams defended Stafford and Megatron pretty well on the road.

Atlanta looked good, but they may be over valued slightly. The chiefs were missing a plethora of starters for that game. The general rule is that the home team gets 3 points, and if that holds true here, then the game is really a pick em. Manning inside of a dome against a team that could be overconfident about a win over a team missing defensive starters could be a prime bet for the road dog.

I have a feeling the money will flow on the Skins and Falcons. If so, I'm taking the Rams, Broncos and all the points that come with them.

Fair enough, but Rams can be tricky when playing at home. Look at last year and the Saints. Nola shoulda won that game going away and they got blasted. Now that RGIII has game tape, St Louis will come prepared.

I'm not saying they will win, but if the line goes high enough, I think they are worth a look.

Just put a unit on each of these

Bengals + 8

Under 41.5

Chargers pick

Over 47

Locked in 3 units on Broncos ML (+150). Initially wanted to wait, figuring heavy money would flow on Atlanta bc of their win against KC, but everyone seems to be talking Manning up. I wanted to get in before the flood.

Grimes out, Manning in a dome, Porter playing excellent at corner with a good defensive line, I like the Broncos straight up.

Washington probably beats most NFL teams yesterday because no one expected the diversity in the offense that Shanahan had yesterday.

They (Wash) will be good this year, but not 40-32 good.
