I Think the Chiefs Are in Trouble!

Posted on December 2009 in betting on football

The Kansas City Chiefs begin the Herman Edwards era on Sunday at Arrowhead when they welcome the ferocious Cincinnati Bengals and this could be the start of a very long season for Trent Green and his mates.

When handicapping a team my first inclination is too look for an experienced offensive line that can run the ball and keep the quarterback vertical. In Kansas City this has been their strength with Roaf, Shields, Waters, Wiegmann, and Welbourn, but you can remove the bookend tackles Roaf and Welbourn who both retired.

Replacing Roaf is Kyle Turley who has not played since 2003 and is 25 pounds under his playing weight at that time. Replacing Welbourn is Kevin Sampson who was drafted in 2004 and has played a total of 2 games.

The Chiefs have an emerging superstar in Larry Johnson at running back, but he will not have the luxury of experienced fullback Tony Richardson who has moved on and this will certainly cause problems. So before you do any football betting on Johnson, I advise you to research the odds at your favorite sportsbook. His replacement Ronnie Cruz was undrafted and played at some school called Northern State.

KC will not have the luxury of turning to Priest Holmes, as he is battling career threatening injuries, so if Johnson goes down, Michael Bennett is average at best.

Now we all know that Trent Green has been a durable machine in Missouri, but if he goes down, things get very dicey.

Damon Huard, who is 33 and hasn’t completed an NFL pass since the 2000 season is the backup, and this is not good.

The defensive side of the ball has always been the Chiefs’ Achilles heel and I don’t see this changing much. Bringing over Ty Law and Patrick Surtain was a mistake and the line has gone through too many changes. Their strength is at linebacker with Mitchell, Johnson, and Bell, but that is not enough.

Arrowhead Stadium can be loud and raucous, but the Bengals will quickly bring them down to a dull roar come Sunday afternoon!

Chill Out Folks, It’s Only Week Two!

Posted on December 2009 in betting on football

Okay everyone just take a deep breath, loosen your collar, and don’t go heading to the closest bridge if you’re a Carolina Panther fan. The good news for fans whose teams lost is that there are 15 other teams who are dealing with depression just after the first weekend in what promises to be a topsy-turvy year.

Here is a sample of so me of the headlines from these losing cities!

Dallas:
Same song, new verse:
Bledsoe’s 3 interceptions spell doom in Cowboys opener.

Cleveland:
Winslow is a bright spot on dismal day.

Carolina:
Delhomme has to do better.

Needless to say the state of North Carolina has had better days as the Panthers were swarmed by the Falcons, the Tar Heels were given the boots by the Hokies, and the Wolfpack were stunned by a team named the Zips! Where is basketball season when you need it?

However for those of you who have a short memory, but love football betting, it was just a year ago that the homeless New Orleans Saints waltzed into Carolina and stunned the Panthers. Carolina quickly picked themselves up off the mat and proceeded to the NFC Championship game, so hope springs eternal. You should still check out their odds at your favorite sportbook since after that game with the Saints.

As for the Cowboys, they marched out to an early 10-point lead, but then the Jaguars shut down their running game and Drew Bledsoe went into his Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde routine. When Drew’s on his game it’s a beautiful picture since this guy can seemingly throw a football through a thimble. However, when he is bad he can be awful as was evident by his throws in the last game. Make way for Tony Romo!

On the flip side of this rationale is the performance of the Green Bay Packers, Kansas City Chiefs, and the Cleveland Browns. I have been warning bettors for weeks now that a lack of a solid offensive line would doom these teams.

The results from these last games support my claims!

Many Nfl Cities Are in for a Long Year!

Posted on December 2009 in betting on football

As we head into week three in the NFL it’s getting increasingly clear that there are some awful NFL teams. This will create some headaches where the linemakers in Vegas, who know the public, will lay the wood against these poor teams. It’s something to consider before doing any football betting.

In Cleveland, the Browns are in big trouble as they are 0-2 and are staring down the tracks at an ongoing freight train known as the Baltimore Ravens. In two games, Brian Billick’s gang has accumulated 55 points while relinquishing just six and no touchdowns.

The Brownies, on the other hand, have scored 31 and allowed 53 and there is no help on the way for this once proud franchise. You know that Ray Lewis and his gang have no thoughts of allowing this anemic opponent into the end zone.

In Tampa Bay, there are a plethora of problems as the offense and defense have been awful and the kicking game not much better. Allowing 41 points, while scoring only 3, will not have the fans in Raymond James Stadium I a hurry to buy seats. This weekend the Buccaneers welcome the Carolina Panthers, who also find themselves 0-2 and looking up.

I have to side with T-Bay here, as they have faced two potent offences the first two games in Baltimore and Atlanta and now will host the Cats who will probably be without All World receiver Steve Smith again.

Miami was bet all over the country the first two weeks against the Steelers and Bills and failed miserably for their backers. They throw a party for the Tennessee Titans who next to the Oakland Raiders are the worst team in the NFL. Two weeks ago the papers and web sites were singing the praises of Daunte Caulpepper and now the Miami fans are shouting for Joey Harrington.

Did I forget to mention the Toilet Bowl in Motown where Matt Millen’s House of Cards is crumbling once again? Has there ever been an ex-player turned broadcaster that has come out of the booth and destroyed a team worse then Millen?

The Lions host the Green Bay Packers and I am counting the days, until Brett Farve turns his back on his teammates and walks away from the game. He continues to throw the ball to the wrong team and they will get soundly beaten by Detroit this weekend. If you plan on betting at your favorite sportsbook, stay away from Detroit.

Faster College Games Mean Less Points!

Posted on December 2009 in betting on football

College football betting early in the season can be a tricky proposition at best, but now that the NCAA has decided to speed up the game with more running clock, the point total (over/under) have been affected mightily!

The case in point is on kickoffs where normally the clock would not start until the receiving team had touched the ball. Now as soon as tow hits the ball, the clock is moving. In some cases where there is a lot of scoring you will see 10-12 kickoffs a game, which will reduce playing time by a minute.

Once the pile has been uncovered and the referee places the ball on the ground, the clock will start. Whereas in previous years, the clock would not begin to move until the offensive team had snapped the ball.

College Football has also tweaked the kicking game rules to try and prevent touchbacks, which occur when the kicking team boots the ball deep in or out of the end zone and the offensive team gets the ball at the 20 yard line.

Major college games played during the season’s opening week, employing clock and other changes aimed at picking up the pace, lasted an average of 3 hours, 3 minutes, a notable drop from last year’s opening-week average of 3:20.

Thirty-one of the 72 games involving teams in NCAA Division I-A going into Monday night’s Florida State-Miami (Fla.) match-up were completed in three hours or less. Only four lasted as long as 3½ hours.

A year ago, only five of 52 opening-week games finished in three hours or less. Thirteen went 3½ hours or longer.

With the clock running more, you will have less plays and thus the scoring will be down. Indeed, this year’s opening games averaged 13 fewer plays than last year’s. Teams totaled 101 fewer yards a game, and they scored 4.5 fewer points a game. This is something to consider if you are going to be making any proposition bets at your favorite sportsbook.

The effect was felt, among other places, at Oklahoma where the Sooners and Alabama at Birmingham ran a combined 110 offensive plays in OU’s 24-17 victory. It was one of the lowest totals of the weekend and the lowest for a game involving the Sooners in 50 years.

West Virginia and Marshall got in 123 plays, a little below the first-week average of 126 and well beneath the 2005 opening-week average of almost 139.

High scoring machines like West Virginia are used to getting the ball 12-13 times a game, yet on the weekend only had the pigskin 10 times.

Miami-Florida State saw only 23 points in total, which favored the under bettors!

A Little Wayne Never Hurt Anyone

Posted on December 2009 in betting on football

As much as I enjoy my position as the country’s leading football betting scribe, I occasionally yearn for the more glamorous world of investigative journalism.

When news broke that David Moyes had initiated legal proceedings against Wayne Rooney for alleging that his ex-boss leaked tales of his ‘cash for a rash’ habit; I sensed my opportunity.

To get to the bottom of the story, I knew I had to do everything that young Rooney did, with the exception of the old trout.

After conducting my initial enquiries, I can confirm that there are establishments that offer this kind of tawdry service, and they open on a Friday night, a Saturday morning and a Sunday afternoon. I’m not sure if these places are open in midweek, but my investigation is ongoing.

At this early stage, I wouldn’t like to put money on Moyes being successful in his action, as my overheads have left me virtually potless. I’ll try to recoup a little by backing Rooney’s United to see off the Moyes boys at 8/11.

It may sound ridiculous to claim that Watford have enjoyed their spell in the top flight, but some people welcome a spanking on a weekly basis. The Hornets will be getting tonked at Bramall Lane this week, 4/7 is lying on the table.

Manchester City haven’t scored a Premiership goal in front of their own supporters since New Years Day. Luckily for the Psycho, Aston Villa are the next visitors to Eastlands so Vassell is guaranteed a goal. The Villa are unbeaten in their last six matches; a draw looks the call at 9/4.

Jose Mourinho believes that Manchester United’s opponents are denied penalties as a result of a ‘new rule’. The Special One is completely wrong on this one; that directive was introduced several years ago. I only have one rule this weekend, get on Chelsea at 1/3 to see off Bolton.

If i had to pick Wigan’s most consistent performer, I’d probably plump for the chairman; he’s been consistently wrong in every interview this season. West Ham can drag Wigan into the relegation battle at 12/5.

Charlton have one major advantage over their backdoor threatened rivals, they have the Bent lad up front. The classy hitman can help Charlton leave Ewood Park with a point at 5/2.

I was surprised that the tabloids found it newsworthy to reveal that the royal family are Arsenal fans. I’m pretty sure that Prince Philip supported the Gunners in last season’s Champions League final; I heard he wrote a note saying ‘Get it done in Paris.’ The Queen’s favourite team will put one over her favourite shopkeeper at 4/9.

Stevie Gerrard swapped shirts with Frank Lampard after Liverpool’s first leg defeat in their Champions League semi; he’s always had a soft spot for camping. The Reds will have one eye on the second leg; Portsmouth can land the upset at 11/4.

Reading were absolutely devastated when Newcastle won from behind at St James’ earlier in the season; nobody has regretted losing a lead in such a fashion since Helen Chamberlain’s ex-boyfriend. The Royals can gain revenge at 21/20.

Middlesbrough are having to plan for next season without Mark Viduka. Gareth Southgate is said to be quite disappointed; but it’s Christmas come early for the catering department. Backing the draw between Boro and Spurs at 12/5 will make us all feel that little bit happier.

Portsmouth, Sheffield United, Arsenal and Reading form a 14/1 weekend accer that is so liberating, I’ve finally realised that the female of the species is not a commodity that can be bought and sold. Renting remains a viable alternative.

How does the money line bet work when betting on football games?

Posted on November 2009 in betting on football

On sports gambling sites what is the money line bet?

No spread, just to win. The odds are usually listed referring to $100. So a favorite that says -450 means you need to bet $450 to win $100. The underdog might be +400, meaning bet $100 to win $400.
