2010 Preview – Virginia Tech Hokies
08/10/2010 - 14:47
Last year the Hokies finished at 10-3, going 6-2 in the ACC. They ended their season at the Chick-fil-A Bowl with a convincing 37-14 win over Tennessee and a final ranking of 10. The Hokies enjoyed their success with one of the best defenses in the country, though they had a middling offense led by quarterback Tyrod Taylor. Last year, they were 7-4-1 against the spread, making them a pretty good bet to take.

In a game that will be nationally televised on ESPN, the Cardinals will face off against the Reds in a matchup that involves two teams caught up in the battle for the division crown.

Tampa Bay Rays v. Detroit Tigers Free Pick
08/09/2010 - 19:07
Tampa has lost five games in a row in a very crucial point of the season. Last week, they were the sole leaders of the AL East, a position mostly held by the Yankees this season. Now, they sit 1.5 games behind the Yankees and 4.5 games ahead of the Boston Red Sox in the wild card race. Can the Rays rebound in the MLB betting standings and earn their backers some bucks?
With Boston dropping two to the Yankees the last two nights, they have received a reprieve, but if they continue to slip,...

Bengals vs Pats: Odds & Free Pick
08/07/2010 - 06:00
New England Patriot fans had a disappointing 2009. With Tom Brady coming back from a devastating knee injury that cost him his entire 2008, expectations were running high. Unfortunately, defensive deficiencies cost the team several games and they were bounced out of the playoffs early.

Bucs vs Browns Free Pick
08/06/2010 - 06:00
This game should be one of the more forgettable ones in the opening week. It pits the awful Buccaneers against the terrible Cleveland Browns. Though, I will admit that the Browns seem to have hit rock bottom and are ready to start the slow process of turning it around. The Bucs (-1) are favored in this one, despite the Browns (+1) hosting the game.

Falcons vs. Steelers: Week 1 Point Spread
08/05/2010 - 06:00
The Pittsburgh Steelers start 2010 under a lot of pressure. Ben Roethlisberger’s legal troubles are well documented, and they have cost him the start of the season. The Falcons are looking to experience their second straight winning season in their franchise history. This game has been labeled a pick’em by Vegas, as the Falcons (E) head into Pittsburgh (E) to start the season.
The Atlanta offense should be much better this season than they were last year. Michael Turner is a...

It has been a wonderful season for Rangers fans, and will likely be one of the more memorable ones when all is said and done in 2010.

Chargers vs Chiefs Point Spread
08/03/2010 - 11:00
The Chargers disappointed again this year with an early playoff exit after dominating the regular season. Meanwhile, in the Midwest, the Chiefs were in the midst of a rebuilding year and struggling to deal with malcontent running back Larry Johnson. Monday Night Football betting kicks off in Week 1 with the Chiefs (+5.5) hosting the favored Chargers (-5.5) at Arrowhead.
The Chargers are the better team in just about every facet of this matchup. With Philip Rivers slinging the ball to...
2010 Chargers Offensive Preview
08/03/2010 - 06:00
Last year, the Chargers dominated the regular season on the way to a 13-3 record, but were bounced out of the playoffs by the Jets, for yet another early playoff exit. Last year they had a 8-7-1 ATS record.
Quarterback
What can you say about Philip Rivers? He has become one of the league’s premier quarterbacks and has the attitude to back it up. Last year he passed for over 4,000 yards for the second straight season along with 28 touchdowns and only 9 interceptions. He also led...
New York Jets Defense Preview
08/02/2010 - 11:00

Detroit Lions Betting Preview
08/02/2010 - 06:00
Yes, they are still the lowly Lions, but there is a glimmer of hope for the long term prospects of this franchise. Last year, they went 4-10-2 against the spread and hope to surprise a lot of people this year with a handful of wins.
Offense
Kevin Smith is a very good pass catcher out of the backfield, but it is evident that he cannot carry a full load as a feature back. Because of this, the Lions went out and drafted Jahvid Best out of California in the first round. Best is small but...
AL West Betting Odds - Futures
08/01/2010 - 11:00
The AL West Division is just about wrapped up, it seems. Right now the Rangers are 8.5 games ahead of the pack with a 60-43 record. With the acquisition of Cliff Lee, they have put themselves in a very good position to win the division and make a run at their first World Series. The Angels and Athletics are not quite out of it yet, but they are trailing at 8.0 and 8.5 games out of it, respectively. Let’s take a look at the baseball odds and see if there is a bet that is worth taking...
