vince young titans qbThe second full week of NFL preseason wagering games wraps up tonight as the Tennessee Titans host the Arizona Cardinals in the Monday Night Football odds. After tonight’s ESPN contest, only two weeks remain until the games start to actually mean something. Of course, if you bet Arizona (+4), Tennessee (-4), or either side of the current ‘total’ (37) at Sportsbook.com, this game will certainly be meaningful to you. 

Titans’ QB Vince Young saw some light work last week against the Seahawks, going 5-6 for 78 yards with an interception. The majority of the reps were split between Chris Simms and rookie Rusty Smith. Chris Johnson had seven yards on five carries including a touchdown, but the Titans were led on the ground by second-year man Javon Ringer who had seven carries for 60 yards. 

The Cardinals, on the other hand, completed their late rally from 16 down in the fourth to beat Houston 19-16 in their preseason opener. Matt Leinart got the start for Arizona, going 6-7 for 49 yards, but the Cardinals were rallied by Derek Anderson and John Skelton, a rookie out of Fordham. The Cardinals found a way to win despite being out-gained both in the air, and on the ground by the Texans. Tonight’s game will be an important piece in the puzzle which will decide the eventual starting quarterback in Arizona come Week 1.

Below is a key betting system for tonight’s game. For more NFL wagering key numbers, check out the ‘Team Statistics’ page at Sportsbook.com. 

Play Against - Favorites of 3.5 to 10 points (TENNESSEE) - after one or more consecutive wins against the spread, in August games. (50-23 over the last 10 seasons.) (68.5%, +24.7 units. Rating = 2*)

The straight up record of the team this system pertains to is : (35-38 over the last 10 seasons.)
The average line posted in these games was: Opponent favored by 4.8
The average score in these games was: Team 18.4, Opponent 19.6 (Average point differential = -1.3)
The number of games in which this system covered the spread by 7 or more points was 31 (41.9% of all games.)

The situation’s record this season is: (1-1).
Over the last 3 seasons the situation’s record is: (8-1).
Over the last 5 seasons the situation’s record is: (19-9).
Since 1993 the situation’s record is: (98-70).

The Cardinals could be aided tonight by the quarterback controversy, as both Leinart and Anderson will be looking for a good showing.

Regarding the ‘total’, the Titans have generally been an UNDER type of team under head coach Jeff Fisher historically, but that trend may be turning as they have gone OVER the total in six straight preseason contests.

Kickoff for Monday’s game is set for 8:05 PM ET and it can be seen on ESPN. If you plan pro football wagering on this contest, head over to Sportsbook.com.

Carolina vs Dallas Odds Monday Night Football Wagering

jake delhomme v tony romoTonight at 8:30pm ET two quarterbacks feeling the heat will match up against each other on ESPN’s Monday Night Football wagering as Carolina’s Jake Delhomme and the Panthers visit Tony Romo and the Dallas Cowboys. Delhomme was terrible in Week 1 while Romo was awful in Week 2. Both will look for much better performances on Monday. SBG Global reports that early Carolina vs Dallas odds sees the public taking the Cowboys at home as -8.5 favorites with a total 48.

Much of the blame for last week’s Dallas loss to the New York Giants fell on Romo as he was just 13-of-29 passes for 127 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions. It was the opener of Cowboys Stadium and a game that owner Jerry Jones really wanted to win. Romo got a vote of confidence from Jones this week so he will want to have a big game on Monday to show everyone he is still a top quarterback.
 
Delhomme bounced back last week a little bit for Carolina in their game against Atlanta but the Panthers still lost. The Panthers were 12-4 last season but if they lose this game they would be 0-3. That hasn’t happened since 1998 for the Panthers and they finished that season 4-12.
 
Neither defense has played well this season so it could be a high scoring game on Monday night. Dallas could be without one of their top weapons though as running back Marion Barber is doubtful.
 
Dallas has won seven of the all-time regular season meetings against Carolina. Two years ago the Cowboys won 20-13 at Carolina. The Panthers are 4-9-1 ATS in their last 14 games in September. The Panthers are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games as a road underdog. The Underdog is 7-2-1 ATS in the last 10 meetings between Carolina and Dallas.
 
The Cowboys are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games as a favorite. The Cowboys are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games in September. The Cowboys are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 Monday games. The Over is 4-0 in the Panthers last 4 games as a road underdog. The Over is 9-1 in the Panthers last 10 vs. the NFC. The Over is 4-0 in the Cowboys last 4 games overall. The Over is 7-2-1 in the Cowboys last 10 NFL football wagering Monday games. The Over is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings between the two teams.

Monday Night Football Preseason Wagering Odds

brett favreEven the most casual of NFL wagering odds fans will probably have their TV tuned to ESPN tonight for the preseason clash between the Vikings and Texans, if for no other reason than to see the strange sight of quarterback Brett Favre wearing #4 in purple. Favre and his new teammates take another step towards the regular season when they visit Houston as a 3-1/2 point underdog. Most bettors, nearly 80% of them at Sportsbook.com, give the 40-year old QB the edge against the spread.

Minnesota’s newest quarterback played only briefly last week and reports are he will see considerable action on this televised contest. The worldwide leader in sports newest NFL reporter Adam Shefter has reported there is a"schism" in the Vikings locker room concerning what teammates think about the veteran quarterback, compared to those already on hand. Upon further review, those close to the team have found this not to be the case, with a few dissenting voices, but hardly the next Civil War to start in Minnesota.
 
The Vikings have won and covered both their preseason encounters and will have to settle on a backup quarterback. Sage Rosenfels missed last week with an ankle and Tarvaris Jackson, thought to be the goner when the Wrangler jeans pitchman was signed, took full advantage of the situation, completing 12 of 15 passes against Kansas City for 202 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Sportsbook.com has the Vikings as three-point road underdogs, with a total of 38.5.
 
Houston hasn’t had the drama seen in the Twin Cities, but there was a many long face after the Texans were blasted by 38-14 by New Orleans as three-point home favorites last week. The Houston defense was scorched for 420 yards by the Saints and some members of the defensive line are on the firing line. In particular, starting defensive tackle Amobi Okoye has come under scrutiny. Now in his third season, the Nigerian hasn’t progressed as some would like to see for the 10th overall pick in the 2007 NFL Draft. A solid game against a good Minnesota offensive line would help quell dissatisfaction.
 
Quarterback Matt Schaub leads what should be a potent Houston attack, with numerous weapons like Andre Johnson, Steve Slaton, Owen Daniels and Kevin Walter. The Texans are 6-4 and 4-3-3 ATS playing at home in August football since 2004 and have covered their last three Week 3 assignments.
 
Minnesota is 24-13-1 ATS in their last 38 underdog roles and 16-5 ATS when they score 22 to 28 points in the preseason. From a situational perspective, the Vikings could be in a hole, since they are 0-7 ATS on the road versus an opponent coming off a double-digit loss.
