As many <a title=\"betting\" href=\"http:\/\/www.joeduffy.net\/\">betting<\/a> sharps learned the hard way yesterday, it\u2019s tough to bet against home teams in their season openers. In their new stadium and on national TV, the Jets will be nice and fired up. It wouldn\u2019t be a huge surprise to see them draw first blood.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ray Rice rushing yards<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Over 80.5: Even<\/p>\n<p>Under 80.5: -130<\/p>\n<p>Free pick: <strong>Under 80.5. <\/strong>Remember, Ray Rice isn\u2019t just an elite runner; he\u2019s also an outstanding receiver. He doesn\u2019t need 100-yard games to gash defenses. I think he\u2019s more likely to post 70 rushing yards and 70 receiving yards than run wild on a stout Jets front seven.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What will Mark Sanchez\u2019s first pass be?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Complete: -150<\/p>\n<p>Incomplete: +120<\/p>\n<p>Free pick: <strong>Incomplete. <\/strong>As <a title=\"NFL betting\" href=\"http:\/\/www.offshoreinsiders.com\/index.php?PageID=54\">NFL betting<\/a> fans saw with both Aaron Rodgers and Kevin Kolb yesterday, an overly fired up quarterback sometimes loses touch on his passes. Not only is Sanchez simply not that good, he\u2019ll probably have some butterflies in the season opener. I think it\u2019ll take him more than one throw to connect with a receiver.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CHARGERS VS CHIEFS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Will either team score in the first 6.5 minutes?<\/p>\n<p>Yes: -145<\/p>\n<p>No: +115<\/p>\n<p>Free pick: <strong>Yes. <\/strong>If San Diego gets the ball, it shouldn\u2019t have too much trouble marching on the Chiefs\u2019 suspect defense. If Kansas City has possession, it could surprise. Its running game looks great with Jamaal Charles and Thomas Jones and the Chargers struggled against the run last season.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Longest touchdown of the game<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Over 43.5 yards: -115<\/p>\n<p>Under 43.5 yards: -115<\/p>\n<p>Free pick: <strong>Over 43.5 yards. <\/strong>Both teams have home-run potential. Charles can break a long run at any time and the rejuvenated Dwayne Bowe could surprise. Anything is possible for San Diego with Philip Rivers under center and even rookie runner Ryan Mathews flashed some breakaway speed in the preseason.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Will Ryan Mathews score a touchdown?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes: -130<\/p>\n<p>No: Even<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Free pick\" href=\"http:\/\/www.offshoreinsiders.com\/index.php?Page=Articles\">Free pick<\/a>: <strong>Yes. <\/strong>Even though there\u2019s been talk that he won\u2019t get goal-line duty, i don\u2019t buy it. Mathews looked great in the preseason and he\u2019s a powerful enough runner to hit paydirt in short-yardage situations. The Chargers will look to him if they reach the red zone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monday Night Football returns in style with a double header tonight.
