giants vs ravens wagering oddsThursday night in the 2010 NFL wagering produced a pair of entertaining week 3 NFL preseason odds matchups, as both games served up plenty of scoring. In the first game, the St. Louis Rams pulled off an upset, winning 36-35 as an 8-point underdog vs. the New England Patriots.

The betting public landed solidly on the Patriots in the matchup, pushing the line all the way up to -8.5 at some online sportsbooks. That’s about as high a line as you’ll see for an NFL pre-season game. This one was a solid win for the sportsbooks.

In the second game, the Green Bay Packers rolled up 59 points (yes, that’s right, 59 points) on the Indianapolis Colts, who only managed 24. The betting action favored the home side, but it wasn’t lopsided, but it was a nice win for the betting public side when the Pack rolled up those points.

Over bettors were smiling all night.

Let’s look ahead to a few more pre-season matchups.


Saturday

NY Giants vs Baltimore Ravens Wagering Odds

The Ravens are currently a 4-point favorite for this tilt. Here we have two talented and highly touted pre-season teams facing off in Baltimore. Manning is ready to roll since suffering the head gash versus the Jets earlier this preseason. He will be without his starting C O’Hara though, which may cause some issues for the offense.


The Ravens, who some have pegged as a Super Bowl contender, look to keep their undefeated preseason record in tact.

Looking at the betting action, we see 63% of the betting public is backing the Ravens.

Dallas Cowboys vs Houston Texans Wagering Odds

The battle of Texas showcases two high-powered offenses, replete with many weapons. The stars include Tony Romo, Austin Miles, Marion Barber and Jason Witten and for the Texans, they feature Matt Schaub and Andre Johnson. Defensive stops will not be easy in this potential shoot-out.


Currently, 93% of the money is on Houston -3.

Sunday


Pittsburgh Steelers vs Denver Broncos Wagering Odds

The Sunday night match-up has Pittsburgh taking its strong D and ball control offense on the road to Denver. 


First round pick, C Pouncey, saw the majority of the time with the first team this week, and look for him to get the start against Denver. Who he will be snapping the ball to is still to be determined.

Coach McDaniels has indicated that the Denver starters will play into the third quarter Sunday night.
 
Currently 55% of the action is on the Broncos +2.

curtis painter colts backup qbWeek 2 of the NFL pre-season kicks off tonight with a pair of games. Let’s have a look at the Thursday games, as well as the Friday Eagles vs Bengals NFL preseason wagering odds game. 

Thursday, August 19, 2010

You know it’s pre-season when the Bills are favored over the Colts in the 21st Century. The Bills were slaughtered 42-17 in their pre-season opener versus Washington, and they have lost their top two RBs for a month (Jackson and Lynch). Look for a healthy dose of rookie sensation C.J. Spiller Thursday night. 

Indy also lost their opener to the 49ers last week. Manning looked strong in his two series and then it was turnover central with the B Team and QB Curtis Painter throwing three picks. 

NFL wagering trends currently have 83% of the volume on the Bills at – 3.5.

Both teams won their pre-season opens; the Pats 27-24 over the Saints, and The Falcons 20-10 against the Chiefs. For the second consecutive week, New England conducted a joint practice session with their pre-season opponent prior to the game. The Pats feature two young TEs, Gronkowski and Hernandez and look for a lot of playing time for rookie LB Sean Weatherspoon.

The Falcons focus is on evaluating their younger players and to play smarter than last week with eight penalties for 61 yards. Mike Smith is expecting the starters to play between 18-20 snaps.

Currently 86% of the money is on the Pats +2.5.

Friday, August 20, 2010

Cincy lost the Hall of Game to Dallas 16-7. Coach Lewis has stated that their first team will play longer than they did in that game, with most starters going half way into the second quarter.

Philly won their opener 28-27 against the visiting Jaguars. Their first team defense looked strong getting only six plays, with two- 3 and outs. Look for the starters to play as much as two quarters.

Currently 88% of the action is on the Eagles +3.

Enjoy the games.

2010 NFL Wagering - MVP Wagering Odds

brady vs manningThe 2010 NFL betting campaign is about to kick off its first full week of the preseason on Thursday night. BetUS Sportsbook is already raring to go with a list of NFL prop wagers for you to sink your teeth into for this season.

Check out our analysis of the NFL betting props regarding the MVP in 2010.

[Off topic: by the way, do you want to get a
60% bonus on your first deposit here at BetUS? So go on JOIN NOW.]
 

Drew Brees, New Orleans Saints (+700) - Brees makes the most sense to become the league’s MVP this year due to the fact that he is going to be called upon the most to lead his team to the playoffs. There really is no doubt that the Saints are going to the second season, which is usually a prerequisite for winning this award.
 

In spite of the fact that names like Brady and Manning are still at the tops of their games, we tend to believe that Brees might be the best thing going right now.

 
Is 5,000 passing yards out of the equation? We aren’t ones to doubt the defending champs.

 
Philip Rivers, San Diego Chargers (+900) - If you really believe that the Chargers are going to throw the ball an even higher percentage of the time this year than they did last year, Rivers might be the man to look at.

 
There is no doubt that the former member of the NC State Wolfpack is worth at least a good look, as he is probably going to be used more on the goal line now that RB LaDainian Tomlinson is gone.

 
HC Norv Turner probably trusts his veteran quarterback with the ball near the end zone a lot more than he does a scat back (Darren Sproles) or a rookie (Ryan Mathews).

 
With TE Antonio Gates and WR Vincent Jackson both capable of 1,500 yard seasons, Rivers is a logical choice for the league’s MVP.

 
Tony Romo, Dallas Cowboys (+1200) - Romo has a new weapon at his disposal this year with WR Dez Bryant in the fold, and that could be just the kick he needs to become a legitimate MVP selection.

 
Romo knows he can throw for 5,000 yards if need be, and with this type of an offense, OC Jason Garrett will be perfectly content to let him throw the ball 40-45 times if need be for the Cowboys to triumph.

 
If Dallas wins the NFC East this year, it is going to be on Romo’s right arm; He’s a great MVP selection at these nfl wagering odds!

 
Joe Flacco, Baltimore Ravens (+1800) - Flacco is a bit of a longshot, particularly for as much as RBs Ray Rice and Willis McGahee run the ball, but with WR Anquan Boldin now in his arsenal of weapons, Flacco has no excuse not to bring the purple and black back to the playoffs in 2010.
 

Baltimore has a very manageable schedule as well, and getting to the playoffs will almost certainly yield at least one MVP candidate.

 
Flacco seems like the most logical choice with both the rushing game and receiving duties being split relatively evenly.
