Cardinals-Ravens

Young Cardinals quarterback Matt Leinart faces perhaps the
toughest challenge of his career going on the road against one of the best
defenses. Leinart was more comfortable in his second game of the year, a 23-20
win over Seattle and part of a 6-1
Sunday NFL by GodsTips.com. A major reason was that head coach Ken Whisenhunt simplified the playbook from week one.

49ers-Steelers

Both teams are 2-0 but San Francisco
has won their two games by a combined four points, while the Steelers have won
each game by 20 points. However, NFL
guru Mike Godsey reminds, “The Steelers pulverized a bad and injury riddled
Bills team last week.” Pittsburgh
has allowed a combined 10 points, which is 10 fewer than any other team. Pittsburgh
is 11-1 their last 12 straight up in interconference
games.

Colts-Texans

Going back to last year, the Texans have won four in a
row. Houston will likely be without
their best receiver Andre Johnson. He has 14 catches for 262 yards and three
touchdowns.

Chargers-Packers

Green Bay is
2-0 after starting out 1-4 each of the last three seasons. Head coach Mike McCarthy believes adjustments
made in training camp, which called for more rest and recovery time, is a major
reason. However, 13 players missed all or part of practice Wednesday.

Rams-Buccaneers

Last year during a wave of injuries to the offensive line,
St. Louis won 4-of-5. Nevertheless, they are 0-2 this year and
their offensive line is banged up. Seven time Pro
Bowler Orlando Pace is out, guard Rich Incognito is doubtful, plus ace backup
guard and tackle Todd Steussie is out. Quarterback
Marc Bulger has been limited in practice because of sore ribs.

Cowboys-Bears

Dallas has
scored the most points in the league with 82, though are fourth in yards. Chicago
has allowed the fourth fewest points and fifth fewest yards. Chicago
has won 13-of-15 at home holding 12 of those teams to 10 or fewer points. Their
defense though has the third fewest yards and fourth fewest points. Dallas
will again be without starting wide receiver Terry Glenn.

Titans-Saints

New Orleans is
0-2 but this is their home opener. Tennessee
has won seven of their last nine games, but one of their losses a close one to Indianapolis
22-20 last week.

Panthers-Falcons

Atlanta has
scored just 10 points in an 0-2 start and Joey
Harrington has been sacked 13 times. Atlanta
did sign former Jacksonville
starting quarterback Byron Leftwich, but according to coach
Bobby Petrino, Leftwich will be the No. 3 quarterback
until he learns the offense. Harrington
is 23-45 as a starting quarterback.

Vikings-Chiefs

Kansas City
will be without starting wide receiver Eddie Kennison.
Rookie Dwayne Bowe gets the nod. Minnesota
running back Chester Taylor did not practice Wednesday. Minnesota
quarterback Tavaris Jackson missed practice Wednesday
nursing a sore groin. Betting expert Stevie Vincent said expect little line
movement based on who the Vikings starting quarterback is. “Jackson
is quarterback of the future, but he’s certainly shaky in the present.” Minnesota
has incredibly lost 12-of-13 road games to the AFC.

KC is 2-5 this decade on home openers as each of their
first two games were on the road and both losses. The good news is Chiefs
starting quarterback Damon Huard is 6-0 all-time as a
starter in KC and his passer rating is 107.3. KC’s defense ranks eighth in the
league and will be buoyed by the return of defensive end Jarred Allen who
served a two-game suspension. KC is 20-4 outright at home to the NFC since 1995,
the league’s best mark under such paramemters.

Lions-Eagles

Philadelphia
star running back Brian Westbrook did not practice Wednesday because of a knee
injury. We are keeping an eye as well on Detroit
running back Kevin Jones who also missed practice Wednesday with a knee injury.
Philadelphia will also have to deal
with the distraction (or rallying cry) on Donovan McNabb’s outspoken comments
on HBO. Philly has won four straight in the series by a combined 122-76.

Giants-Redskins

Giants quarterback Eli Manning appears recovered from his
shoulder injury, but starting running back Brandon Jacobs is out. Derrick Ward
gets the start.

Dolphins-Jets

Each team is 0-2. Jets starting quarterback Chad
Pennington is nursing an ankle injury and his status will be determined later
in the week. His replacement Kellen Clemens struggled
in the first three quarters last week, but nearly led the Jets back from a 20-3
fourth quarter deficit. OffshoreInsiders.com
Senior Handicapper Stevie Vincent said this game looks to be the
strongest betting game on the board. He will release a Level 5 play on this
game. Pennington is 6-1 to Miami
including 4-0 at Giants Stadium.

Bills-Patriots

New England has beaten the Jets and
Chargers by identical 38-14 routs. On the other hand, Buffalo
has one touchdown this year in two losses and has been outscored 41-17. New
England is 12-1 the last 13 straight up in the series.

Bengals-Seahawks

Seattle has
won 10-of-12 straight up to the NFC, including 5-1 on the road. But Cincinnati
has lost three straight road games overall since last year, allowing an average
of 36.3 points per game. Seattle is
27-6 at Qwest Field since 2003, the best home mark in the league during that
span.

an underdog. Auburn has failed in
seven straight as a double digit chalk.

UCLA-Utah

UCLA is 9-1 against the sportsbooks to the Mountain West. However, they have covered the pointspread at just a 7-21 rate their last 28 against teams with a

USC is 5-0 when the offshore bookmakers post them as a

their last 33 following a win of 20 or more. Nebraska
plays their best against the best. The
Cornhuskers are an impressive 18-2 their last 20 at home to teams with a
winning road record. Yet they are 1-15
against the football pointspread after allowing more than 200 yards rushing
last game.

Florida State-Colorado

FSU is 8-20 as a favorite and 1-11 as a chalk of 3.5-10
according to sports betting databases. Colorado
is 18-38 after getting less than 100 yards rushing last game.

More college football betting news and notes for this
weekend’s action in both college football and the NFL

First the college betting advice:

Louisiana Monroe-Texas A&M

Sports handicappers have several factors to weigh. On one
hand, A&M may be tempted to rest key players, not to mention look-ahead.
The Aggies get their first test following this game. Off a short-week, they play at Miami
on Thursday.

However, this is a final chance for Texas A&M to fine-tune their struggling passing game. In beating Fresno
State last Saturday, the Aggies ran the ball on 28 of their final 29 games. Oh, that game went into three overtimes, so a
letdown is also something to consider.

Arkansas-Alabama

Arkansas
star wide receiver Marcus Monk is out.

Fresno State-Oregon

Oregon must
guard against a letdown, fresh of their 39-7 pulverizing of Michigan.
Oregon has won four straight in
the series, but all by a touchdown or less.
However, Fresno must
mentally regroup following a heart-wrenching triple overtime loss at Texas A&M. Hence, this
is the second straight road game against a nationally ranked team for the
Bulldogs.

Army-Wake Forest

Wake Forest
will again be without starting quarterback Riley Skinner.

Now to the NFL betting edge as well as information useful
to the fantasy
football player:

49ers-Rams

The 49ers star running back Frank Gore will be playing
with a heavy heart. His mother died
Wednesday following a long illness. Gore rushed for a franchise record 1,695
yards last year.

San Diego-New England

Sportsbooks and
wise guy NFL bettors alike raised an eyebrow when Chargers All-Pro tight end
Antonio Gates missed practice on Wednesday.
However, he did practice fully Thursday and will start Sunday.

NFL fantasy
football and sports betting news and notes for Sunday, September 16

Jets-Ravens

Jets quarterback Chad Pennington says he will prepare as
if he is starting Sunday. The Jets have
been tight lipped about his injured right ankle, not even confirming if he had
an MRI. If he does not play, second-year quarterback Kellen Clemens will get his first start. “Clemens is the
classic looks like a Hall of Famer in the preseason,
but many such quarterbacks have flopped when given a chance in the regular
season,” says Mike Godsey of GodsTips.com,
widely considered the top NFL handicapping expert on earth. Keep an eye on the
injury status of Baltimore quarterback Steve McNair. The team website is calling him a game time
decision. If he can’t go, disappointment
Kyle Boller would get the start. Baltimore
went 7-1 at home last year allowing just 12 points per game. Ravens left tackle
Jonathan Ogden is doubtful with a toe injury. Ravens middle linebacker Ray
Lewis is considered a game time decision with an arm injury that limited him
Monday night.

Chiefs-Bears

The Bears lost starting safety Mike Brown and starting
defensive tackle Dusty Dvoracek for the year in their
14-3 loss to San Diego. Danieal Manning,
who started 14 games as a rookie, will replace Brown. Darwin Walker starts for Dvoracek. The two injured starters were key reasons why the
Bears stymied Charger running back LaDainian Tomlinson to 25 yards on 17
carries. Now they face Chiefs Pro-Bowler Larry Johnson. Johnson was rusty after
being a holdout most of the preseason.
He had just 43 yards rushing at Houston
last week. New quarterback Damon Huard struggled
more, passing for just 168 yards, throwing two interceptions.

Cowboys-Dolphins

Dallas lost
nose tackle Jason Ferguson with torn biceps. Cornerback starter Terence Newman
could be available, but has not practiced in three weeks previous, so we will
keep a close eye on his status. He did not practice Wednesday. Dallas
gave up 35 points in their opening win to the NY Giants. Pokes starting wide
receiver Terry Glenn is definitely out this week. Stevie Vincent, one of the OffshoreInsiders.com experts
believes Dallas will not be able to
sustain their offensive productivity without Glenn.

Seahawks-Cardinals

Stat of the week: Arizona
actually had a better divisional record than Seattle
last year. Zona
was 4-2 inside the division but 1-9 outside. The teams split the head-to-head
last year. Seattle will be without
starting wideout D.J.
Hackett.

Chargers-Patriots

For those who handicap “intangibles” this game has plenty of subplots. New England
will have the distraction (or rally cry) of the burgeoning spy scandal. Also
this is revenge for San Diego as New
England eliminated them from the postseason last year. Chargers
running back LaDainian Tomlinson accused New England of
showing up the Chargers in the post game celebration. Chargers all-universe
tight end Antonio Gates missed practice Wednesday and the Chargers are very mum
as to why. Reports say it was a sore back and he will return to practice
Thursday.

Bengals-Browns

Last week’s Browns starting quarterback Charlie Frye was
traded to Seattle. This elevates Derek Anderson to starter and
most agree he’s only keeping the seat warm for rookie Brady Quinn. Anderson
was 0-3 last year as a starter while filling in for an injured Frye. Bengals
starting wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh missed
practice Wednesday with a knee injury, but is expected to start. Cincinnati
expects their offensive line to be healthier than they were Monday night.

Saints-Buccaneers

We will keep a close eye on Tampa
running back Carnell Williams. He was
very limited in practice Wednesday with sore ribs. Backup Michael Pittman would go in his
absence.

Packers-Giants

Giants starting quarterback Eli Manning was originally
reported to be out for a month with a shoulder injury, now he is considered
“day to day”. Manning has started 42 straight games including the postseason.
If he is not able to start, the Pillsbury Throw Boy Jared Lorenzen
gets the start. Our sources say Lorenzen looks like
the likely starter as Manning did only some light throwing on Wednesday but did
not practice. Starting running back Brandon Jacobs is out with Derrick Ward
getting the start. Defensive end Osi
Umenyiora did not practice Wednesday but
worked out on a stationary bike. His
status for Sunday is uncertain.

Buffalo-Pittsburgh

The Bills are probably leading the league in key injuries.
Tight end Kevin Everett and safety Ko Simpson are out
for the year following injuries suffered in their last-second loss to Denver.
They join linebacker Keith Ellison, his replacement Coy Wire, and cornerback
Jason Webster as out. Also defensive end Anthony Hargrove will serve the second
game of a four-game suspension. Despite the low scoring game, Buffalo
gave up 470 yards last Sunday and faces a Pittsburgh
team that just scored 37 points. Cy McCormick of MasterLockLine.com
assures us that Pittsburgh’s
offensive explosion last week was no aberration. “They will be much more wide
open than in the Cowher era.”

49ers-Rams

St. Louis will
be without seven time Pro Bowl tackle Orlando Pace, who is out for the year
with a shoulder injury.

Texans-Panthers

Home field advantage? Carolina
has not won a home opener since 2003 and went only 4-4 overall straight up at
home last year.

Vikings-Lions

Lions starting running back Kevin Jones has been limited
with a foot injury. We expect capable
backup Tatum Bell to get the start as he did last week. Likewise Minnesota
running back Chester Taylor is questionable to doubtful. However Jeff Warnick of BettorsAdvice.com believes this could be a
blessing in disguise. “His backup Adrian Peterson is the NFL’s next star”. Histoy says don’t
get too excited about Detroit’s win as they’ve won their opener four of the
last five years, yet finished 3-13 last year for their sixth straight losing
season. Minnesota has won all
five of their games at Ford Field, where Detroit
was just 2-6 last year.

Raiders-Broncos

Raiders shaky starting
quarterback Josh McCown did not practice Wednesday
because of a broken finger. It isn’t likely to shake up the line much, but we
look for Dante Culpepper to get the nod.
