NFL Football Odds

In general the AFC playoff race picture is a bit of a NFL football odds snoozer. In three of the four divisions the race for the title is all but wrapped up. Denver (6-1) is light years ahead of the rest of the poor teams in the AFC West.

It’s all but impossible to think that undefeated Indy (7-0) will lose ground to anyone in a weak AFC South. And it’s clear that New England (5-2) is still the class of the AFC East.

But when you focus the flashlight on the AFC North NFL football odds playoff picture,
things get a bit more interesting. Read more…

The NFC West has long been the doormat of the NFL football odds conference. It rarely gets any respect (nor does it deserve any) and has relegated to irrelevance more times than not when the post season arrives.

But it’s also enigmatic considering that it’s claimed an NFC conference title two of the past five NFL football odds seasons and after a retched start this season it appears to be one of the more competitive divisions in the conference. Read more…

The Jags have been one of the better football teams in the NFL odds over the past 5-7 years.  Its stout defense and balanced offense made this team a formidable and competent opponent.

But so far in the 2009 NFL football odds this team has been awful. Starting the NFL odds season at 2-2 is nobody’s idea of a good time but it’s hardly the end of the world either.  In fact, coming off a 37-17 beat down of the defending division champion Tennesee Titans there might even be reasons for hope.

QB David Gerrard had his finest performance of the NFL football odds season by far and was nearly flawless in his dismantling of the toothless Titan defense.  He was 27-37 with 323 yards and 3 TDs.  Not a bad days work at all. Read more…

The Washington Redskins are a team in NFL football odds turmoil. Or least that’s what the headlines say. Jim Zorn is a loss away from being fired and the Jason Campbell would already be on the bench if the team had any depth at QB. And so every game, including its week five match up with Carolina has become a must win game.

The host Panthers aren’t exactly having a fairy tale of a NFL football odds season either with QB Jake Delhomme throwing nearly as many passes to the other team as his own receivers and coach John Fox almost certainly headed for the scrap heap unless his team wins the Super Bowl.

The desperation will be thick in the air as these two struggling teams and struggling coaches fight to remain relevant in the NFL odds. Read more…

Four teams in the AFC remain perfect so far in the AFC and in NFL football odds, and its little surprise that they all happen to leading their respective divisions. Among this group of undefeated there are three very good teams, two rookie head coaches and one team that simply doesn’t belong: the Broncos.

Give credit to first-year coach Josh McDaniels, it’s not easy to go 3-0 in your debut, but incredible luck and poor AFC West opponents have more to do with that than anything that Broncos have accomplished. That’s why this team doesn’t belong in the group with the other NFL football odds AFC elite. Read more…
