Let's see what we have here

I'm not so good in NFL but we will se

Green Bay under looks fine to me. What you think Grga?

[Grga]

The line is big mainly because both teams played high scoring games in Week 2.

[Grga]

Green Bay Packers - Jacksonville Jaguars

GB Packers won their first 2 games:
@ Pittsbough 13-9
vs Seattle 48-13


Solid performance by Favre and backup Aaron Rodgers.

Jacksonville Jaguars lost in Miami 17-17 and won at home vs Tampa Bay 31-19.
On the other side Jacksonville Jaguars have injuries in their defensive line.

Center Brad Meester broke his right ankle during the first week of training camp and will miss at least the first three games of the regular season. Right guard Chris Naeole sprained his right knee last week and won't play again in the preseason, although he is expected to return for the regular season opener.

With backup guard Stockar McDougle out for the season with a torn Achilles' tendon, Dennis Norman will start at center, left guard Vince Manuwai will move to right guard and rookie Uche Nwaneri will start at left guard.

The Jaguars also are missing safety Reggie Nelson. The first-round pick sprained his left ankle Saturday against Tampa Bay but is expected back for the opener. He'll be replaced by recently signed veteran Sammy Knight

The only thing that worries me is that Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio plans to play most of his available starters three quarters.On the other side Mike McCarthy will probably pull his starter out at HT.

My pick Green Bay +3

Grga you ever thought about trying the reveres half/finish bets. I see so often teams coming out for the second halfs with almost unrecognisable teams far weaker than the ones for the first half.

Jax/GB and GB/Jax for example.

I cant wait for next month and the start of the NFL. I am just gutted i never managed to get myself some tickets for the game in the UK

Lucky boy.

Preseason is not good for anything Kiko.But I usually follow games and do some live betting.Last season New England was good for winning in last drives.I wait to underdog to score first or get in lead and then back favourite.It's much safer than HT/FT bets.

[Grga]

Here are some interesting long term bets.

New England over 11.5 wins in regular season @ 5/6

They got 12 wins last season but with addition of WR Randy Moss (from Raiders), WR Donte' Stallworth (from Eagles), WR Wes Welker (from Dolphins) they have made a fantastic job.
Defence will be stronger for LB Adalius Thomas (from Ravens).
Running unit is the weaker part of the team with Laurence Maroney (745 rushing yards, 22 receptions, 7 TD), ex- Dolphin Sammy Morris (400 rushing yards, 1 TD, 21 receptions with Miami), Kevin Faulk (123 rushing yards, 43 receptions, 3 TD) and Heath Evans (117 rushing yards, 7 receptions, 1 TD).

KEY DEPARTURES: RB Corey Dillon (released, March 2), FB Patrick Pass (to Texans), TE Daniel Graham (to Broncos), DE Marquise Hill (deceased), OLB Tully Banta-Cain (to 49ers, March 6), CB Chad Scott (out for season/injury), S Tebucky Jones (released) P Todd Sauerbrun (to Broncos).

Last season Brady had the worset receiving corps in the league with Reche Caldwell (61 receptions, 4 TD) and Jabar Gaffney (11 receptions, 1 TD) in the primary receiving roles. Caldwell and Gaffney are still around, as are veteran Troy Brown (43 receptions, 4 TD) and 2006 second- round draft pick Chad Jackson (13 receptions, 3 TD),but they will have backup roles this season.

I can't see more than 3 tough matches in NE schedule:
vs San Diego (9/16),
at Indianapolis (11/4),
at Baltimore (12/3)

New England to win SuperBowl @ 4/1 is little short but over 11.5 wins in regular season is excelent bet.
My prediction for NE Pats season 14-2 or 15-1.

[Grga]

Buffalo Bills under 6.5 wins in regular season @ 11/10

Loss of defence leaders MLB London Fletcher-Baker (to Redskins), LB Takeo Spikes (to Eagles), CB Nate Clements (to 49ers) defence is a lot weaker;RB Willis McGahee went to Ravens,brutal schedule.
I just can see them winning more than 4 games.

[Grga]

Baltimore Ravens over 9.5 wins in regular season @ 8/11

Adalius Thomas, who was Baltimore's most versatile and perhaps most beloved defensive player wanted too much money for his new contract, Ravens refused to pay and Thomas is now new member of New England.
Bigg loss for defence.But I still think that Ravens have the best defence in league.
Addition of RB Willis McGahee (990 rushing yards, 6 TD, 18 receptions with Buffalo) from the Bills in the offseason will give Ravens more options in attack.

12-4 or 11-5 season for Ravens.

Agree with you on Ravens and Bills.. Have thought on both of them my self... Will stay away from NE because of the high line, but think you are good there as well.

I took some bets my self earlier on:

Jaguars Over 9 Wins @2.03.. Last year they went 8-8.. That was problably the best 8-8 team EVER in NFL...


Vikings Under7 @1.725 I just think they are crap team.. And cant see them win much.. Though after getting closer to start of season, and reading more into it, im starting to fear a 8win season for them, and thinking of buying the other side as well..

Saints Under 9 @2.29 Feel like it was a one off season for them last year.. Think ill get my money back on this.

Steelers Over 8.5 @1.725 Feel steelers will go at least 10wins..

Chiefs Under 7,5 @1.763.. Might buy the other side on this as well.. Getting in doubt when getting closer...



GRGA (or others).. You know where its possible to make multi on these season wins?? Planning to make a few doubles / tripples for fun money.. thanks.
