Surprisingly for many, but not for all, the New York Giants pulled out a win at Lambeau Field and knocked out the world champ Green Bay Packers. Not only did they win the game, but they made it look easy. This is a team that is peaking at the right time and this pass rush is tremendous.

Another team that is hot is of course the San Francisco 49ers, who took down the powerful Saints scoring 36 points, on an impressive offensive performance which was not what we were used to all season long. Alex Smith is playing confident at this late stage mainly thanks to the intelligent management by Coach Jim Harbaugh, and this defense is also brutal.

Time and time again we see it, defenses win championships. And in this case, it will be the two best remaining defenses that were able to dominate and knock out the top seeds of the division. This will be a low scoring game. Open your account at BetOnline now and bet the under!

It has come down to two contenders in the AFC when the Baltimore Ravens travel to Gillette Stadium to play the New England Patriots this Sunday January 22nd, 2012 with the winner advancing to Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis on Feb. 5th.

BetOnline has already released the odds for this game with the Patriots as 7.5 point favorites with a total of 50 points. Open your account at BetOnline and take advantage of the early line!

New England is clearly dominates this series as of recently leading 6-1 however the only Raven win came when it matters, in the post season. It is clear that the playoffs are another season of their own, and the best defenses are the ones more capable of imposing their will, and ultimately win championships.

Tom Brady was able to shred the Broncos secondary throwing six touchdown passes, while the defense allowed only 10 points, of course to a lower ranked opponent. Now Brady will have to repeat his surgical performance to beat the Ravens secondary, and an Ed Reed who is making a significant contribution this post season.

We all know Brady and the Patriots are fully capable of putting points at home, and considering how vulnerable their defense has been all year long the Ravens should have their share of opportunities as well. Open your account at BetOnline now and bet the over 50 points!

Dec 282011

It’s winner takes all for the NFC East on the last week of Regular Season when the 8-7 New York Giants host the also 8-7 Dallas Cowboys on Sunday Night Football of New Year’s Eve at 8:20 PM ET at MetLife Stadium.

The Giants are -3 point favorites with a total of 46.5, and this game is available for betting at Bodog Sportsbook.

This game will mean the Division title for the winner; the loser will have a coach asked questions about job security. It’s as simple as that. A one-game season for the most part for superiority in what has been an inferior division.

If either team can run the ball, and it’s been hit-or-miss for both, that could be the difference. Expect the Giants to hunt Tony Romo’s swollen hand whenever possible. Miles Austin has had a quiet, injury-filled season but could salvage a lot in this homecoming. Could Dez Bryant pull a DeSean Jackson on Tom Coughlin on a return in this regular-season, prime-time finale? Hakeem Nicks must shake his case of the drops. New York has been at home pretty much all of December, which should help its cause.

Both defenses will play with high intensity, and both have pretty good chances of wreaking havoc considering the Giants pass rush and the Cowboys run defense. This should not be a high scoring game so Bet under the total.

If the Texans can get Wade Phillips back calling the plays after undergoing kidney and gall bladder surgery this week, their defense should be back to full form, however considering how limited the Colts are on offense this is a key game to loosen up the rookie quarterback. Not many points here, Bet the under.

Dec 222011

With the possibility of a perfect season now gone for the 13-1 Green Bay Packers they will now host a traditional rivalry game when the 7-7 Chicago Bears visit Lambeau Field on Christmas Day, and the only NFL game for the day.

The Packers are -13 point favorites with a total of 44 for this game, bet this game now at Bodog Sportsbook.

The Packers look to bounce back from their first defeat in almost exactly one year and hand the injury-riddled Bears a fifth consecutive loss Sunday night at Lambeau Field, especially with the Bears starting Josh McCown. Let’s face it, without heir missing pieces on offense it will be very limited what they can do to upset the Packers.

The Packers are likely to start resting more veterans in the final two weeks with the possibility of a perfect season gone but they will l likely secure an easy victory first. Matt Flynn could use the free-agent audition and Aaron Rodgers the rest.

We are wondering whether the Bears will put points in the board at all, and once the Packers secure a decent lead they will pull out starters, low scoring is likely. Bet the under

The NFC East is still up for grabs and all of sudden the Philadelphia Eagles step into the playoff scenario.

It all starts with a familiar foe this Christmas Eve when they visit the Dallas Cowboys.

Vick has now carved up the Ryan brothers (Rob and Rex) twice this season, scoring seemingly at will. Can he do it a third time? Not much Rob can learn from Rex after last week. Felix Jones in the screen game against Philly’s lesser linebackers will be key. Plenty of ballhawks in Philly’s beleaguered secondary to make Tony Romo nervous. Both coaches have been under fire for late-game decisions and clock management. The Eagles have been a better team on the road than at home; the Cowboys have had some epic collapses already in the brief history of their new stadium.

Philadelphia is 6-3 SU in its last 9 games on the road
The total has gone OVER in 9 of Philadelphia’s last 13 games on the road
Philadelphia is 2-4 SU in its last 6 games when playing Dallas
Philadelphia is 2-4 ATS in its last 6 games when playing Dallas
The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Philadelphia’s last 6 games when playing Dallas
Dallas is 1-4 ATS in its last 5 games

Dallas is 5-2 SU in its last 7 games
Dallas is 2-6 ATS in its last 8 games at home

Dallas is 4-1 SU in its last 5 games at home
The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Dallas’s last 6 games when playing Philadelphia
Dallas is 4-2 SU in its last 6 games when playing Philadelphia

Both teams have very capable offenses that will be clicking on all cylinders for this game. At the end we believe that Philly extends their hopes for at least one more week by beating the Cowboys on the Road. Bet the Eagles plus the points.

Bodog Sportsbook has listed the Jets as -3 point favorites with a total of 45.5 for this game available now for betting.

Both teams are coming off troubling losses therefore they both desperately need the win in order to keep their post season hopes alive.

Now they are in a battle with the Cincinnati Bengals for the final wild-card spot in the AFC.

The Giants also suffered a frustrating defeat by the Washington Redskins on a game where they had struggles of their own running the football and Eli Manning was unable to throw a touchdown. The Giants however control their own destiny, and if they beat the Jets and the Cowboys in their final two games they will win the division.

Both offenses seem to be struggling a bit down the stretch, and being able to establish a running game is key for both teams. Defensively, the Jets are a much better team than the Giants ranking 7th and 28th respectively, meaning if it get ugly the better defense will prevail. Bet the Jets to cover.
