Sunday November 30, 2008

Denver Broncos 20 New York Jets 27 – The line on this game is Jets -7.5 with the total set at 47.5. Odds makers expect the Jets to keep right on rolling at home following their blowout win over then-undefeated Tennessee last week.

San Francisco 49ers 18 Buffalo Bills 24 – The line on this game is Bills -6.5 with the total set at 42.5. With Buffalo ending its losing streak last week with QB Trent Edwards regaining his confidence, the books feel the Bills will handle to lowly 49ers at home.

New Orleans Saints 21 Tampa Bay Buccaneers 25 – The line on this game is Buccaneers -4 with the total set at 47. New Orleans is playing a game off back-to-back wins for the first time all season and has already beaten the Bucs in 2008, but the books feel Tampa will have its revenge and keep the the top spot in the South.

Carolina Panthers 20 Green Bay Packers 23 – The line on this game is Green Bay -3 with the total set at 42. Prior to last week’s loss, Carolina sat all alone with the second best record in the NFC. Now odds makers feel this team could be losing momentum.

New York Giants 22 Washington Redskins 19 – The line on this game is Giants -3.5 with the total set at 41.5. Even while dealing with injuries the Giants continue to get the job done as we saw against Arizona last week. The books don’t see division rival Washington having much better luck in Week 13.

Miami Dolphins 26 St. Louis Rams 18 – The line on this game is Dolphins -8.5 with the total set at 44.5. Two of the NFL’s worst team in 2007 face off in this matchup but one of those team has made a big turnaround and this line reflects it.

Baltimore Ravens 22 Cincinnati Bengals 15 – The line on this game is Ravens -7 with the total set at 36. Odds makers feel the Ravens continue to roll against the 1-9 Bengals this week and have looked at Cincy’s Week 12 game against Pittsburgh as a guide.

Indianapolis Colts 25 at Cleveland Browns 20 – The line on this game is Colts -4.5 with the total set at 45. The Colts are starting to pick up steam with four straight wins, but its inconsistent defensive play has odds makers thinking the Browns will be in the game.

Atlanta Falcons 22 San Diego Chargers 27 – The line on this game is Chargers -4.5 with the total set at 49. Vegas favors the Bolts again at home this week following a loss in the home chalk to Indy. Do odds makers have them bounce back or have they overvalued the Bolts here?

Pittsburgh Steelers 19 New England Patriots 20 – The line is Patriots -1 with the total set at 39. The books have slated this AFC matchup as the closest of the week with New England getting the slight edge at home.

Kansas City Chiefs 19 Oakland Raiders 22 – The line on this game is Raiders -3 with the total set at 41. Two of the worst teams in the NFL happen to play in the same division and face off in Oakland Sunday. Following a big road win over division leader Denver, the Raiders get the chalk at home.

Chicago Bears 19 Minnesota Vikings 22 – The line on this game is Vikings -3 with the total set at 41.5. Odds makers are giving the Vikes the edge in a NFC North battle for sole possession of first place, despite Chicago winning the first meeting 48-41.

Monday December 1, 2008

Jacksonville 23 Jaguars Houston Texans 26 – The line on this game is Houston -3 with the total set at 48. Houston is home and the books have agreed all season that its chances of winning are much better there.
