There is plenty of good NFL football odds news in Oakland these days. Their head coach will not be arrested for assault and battery and the team has strung together its longest win streak of the year at one game.
In New York the picture isn’t quite so rosy. The Jets have dropped three in a row and the rookie QB Mark Shanchez has been perfecting his Jake Delhomme impression tossing 8 INTs in his last three NFL football odds games (5 alone in week 6).
But the good news in the Big Apple this week is that the Jets will play the Raiders in the NFL odds. And that is the perfect medicine for rookie QB struggling with confidence and execution issues. Read more…
The monkey is off rookie head coach Todd Haley’s back into the NFL football odds. He finally got that elusive first win of the season on his sixth try.
Now the real challenge will be stringing together two of those precious entities and creating a win streak. He’ll have just such an opportunity this week when the reeling Chiefs come to town and by most indications he will fail.
The Chiefs are a rotten team. But the team’s short-comings in the NFL football odds can hardly be pinned on Haley or new operations guru Scott Pioli, they didn’t create this mess, they’ve just been brought in to clean it up.
And the biggest problem facing them is the team’s lack of talent and coaching can only go so far in resolving that NFL odds issue.

The New Orleans Saints are on top of the NFL football odds after knocking off the undefeated Giants.
They have to be considered the best team in the NFL until someone knocks them off the perch, and that someone could very well be the Miami Dolphins. When the New Orleans Saints go to Miami they will face a very interesting challenge. Forget that the Dolphins are just 2-3. You can throw the team’s NFL football odds record out the window as the squad is notoriously slow starting.
But what the Saints should take note of is the Dolphins’ unorthodox offense. The Wild Cat has been called every name in the book and most teams in the NFL odds view it as nothing more than a gimmick. And for most teams that all it is, but for the Dolphins it’s religion and they are highly invested in it. Read more…
Things could not go any worse for the Tennessee Titans. After a rough NFL football odds offseason in which the team’s legendary former QB Steve McNair was murdered their looked to be reason for hope at least on the football field. Wrong. The Titans are 0-5 heading into Sunday’s NFL football odds matchup with the New England Patriots at frigid Foxboro.
The team’s chances of winning this game are slim to null and the team’s losing ways are likely to continue.
The Titan’s offense has been serviceable, at least as good as it was last NFL odds season when the team led the league in wins. But it’s the defense that has been a no show this season. The Titans have been giving up 363 ypg on defense and rank among the worst in the AFC. Read more…
So far in this young NFL football odds season there has not been a bigger game than the matchup that will take place on Sunday at the Superdome.
The 5-0 Giants will come to town to battle the 4-0 Saints and when the dust finally settles there will be one less undefeated team in the NFL football odds.
How do you pick a winner in this one? Both teams are stellar and very well balanced. On offense they both run and pass the ball with great efficiency and both play superb defense that begins with pressure up front, plugging running lanes and secondaries that provide top coverage and create turnovers.
But the biggest difference in this game will be home field advantage and an extra week to prepare and game plan by the Saints. The Bye week is perhaps the most effective tool that NFL odds coordinators have and the Saints brain trust will put it to good use. Read more…
