football gambling tonight
 
how exactly are the broncos a 3 point favorite in this game? last time they played, last december, the raiders pounded them pretty comfortably, neither team has changed materially since (if anything, the addition of mcfadden, a potential stud, swings it even more in the raiders' favor) and we saw yesterday the power of homefield advantage. i have a (confirmed) theory that the raiders are consistently the worst team ATS long-term because vegas shades their lines against them, since the legions of raider fans show up en masse to the sportsbook and ALWAYS bet their team. that said, what am i missing here???

somebody predicted it was gonna be close hummmmmmmmmmmm...........

Jeff Saturday (center) being out for the Colts and Peyton rusty had loss written all ove rit. Your Bears showed up and your QB looks good. Give em hell in the NFC this year.

Bears looked good yesterday! There defense looked like that of 2 years ago..

That being said, The EAGLES looked like the BEST team in the NFL yesterday against the hapless Rams. Go Birds! They ALWAYS suck the first game of the season and to see them come out like that Confirmed my belief.

Also, DeShawn Jackson (sp??) ROOKIE of the YEAR!

you must not have seen the pounding the Steelers put on the texans or the beating the cowboys put on the browns. more than once, romo was reading the paper before he threw the ball.

Don't go crazy overboard... da Bears are better than what people thought they might be but I don't think they're a playoff team. I think the Colts took more of a step back than people want to admit.

bears offense played a really nice game last night. they'll be much better than anyone thought. as long as orton is at qb and they keep running the ball.

saturday missing from the OL will have a bigger impact than anyone will know. he made most or all the line calls and manning was out of wack last night, although he made a number of nice throws.

I love the Vikings tonight as well. I also think Denver covers, but it'll be close. Now all I need is somewhere to bet them..

I am sure there are plenty of opportunities in your area to get down on a game or two

Pants does something that goes unappreciated just about every week.....he plays the money line not the points. Point bets are very difficult to beat long term on spreads > 3. If you really like a team play the money line and take the points out of the equation to avoid those late covers that kill a season.
