NFL Odds: Manziel in as Browns Tackle AFC North Leader


Betting on Browns Football

The Cincinnati Bengals have made an effort to distance themselves
from a stacked AFC North. Despite being 40/1 to win the Super Bowl, the
Bengals are merely a pick ‘em betting option against the Cleveland
Browns, who are 250/1 to win the title. The Browns will showcase their
new quarterback, Johnny Manziel, this weekend.

Although the window to the playoffs shrinks with each passing week,
the Browns can sneak into the postseason if all goes well. A win over
one of their direct competitors would suffice, and perhaps the high
profile rookie will help them get there.


Currently two squads, Cincinnati and the Pittsburgh Steelers, from
the AFC North division are projected to make the postseason cut. Only
1.5 games separate the first-place Bengals (8-4-1) and the Browns
(7-6-0).


The Browns are 250/1 to win the Super Bowl, but seeing as the entire
playoff forecast could change after this week, so could the NFL odds.
Whether that’s enough to convince a potential bettor or not likely comes
down to their faith in Johnny Football.

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 10: Cleveland Browns vs. Cincinnati Bengals – Thursday, Nov. 6


Betting on Bengals NFL Football


Cleveland Browns vs. Cincinnati Bengals – Thursday, Nov. 6


Current BAS’ Line: Bengals -6 1/2 and the total is 45.


The NFL kicks-off Week 10 of the regular season with a huge showdown
in the crowded AFC North title race when the surprising 5-3 Cleveland
Browns go on the road at six-point underdogs this Thursday night to face
the division leading 5-2-1 Cincinnati Bengals at Paul Brown Stadium.
BetAnySports has listed the betting odds for the total in this game at
44.


The Browns maintained pace in this race by getting past Tampa Bay
last Sunday 22-17, but they could not cover against the spread as
6.5-point home favorites. They are now 4-3-1 ATS overall and the total
has now stayed UNDER in their last four games.


Brian Hoyer continues to do a solid job at managing the game as
Cleveland’s quarterback, but this team lives and dies with the play of
its defense. Through the first half of the season this unit is ranked
all the way down the list in average yards allowed (391.8) at 29th in
the NFL, but where it counts the most, this unit is ranked eighth in
points allowed (21.1).


Cincinnati has been able carve-out a two-game winning streak against
Baltimore and Jacksonville in its last two outings. After it covered as a
2.5-point road underdog against the Ravens, bettors had to settle for a
PUSH in this past Sunday’s 33-23 victory over the Jaguars as a 10-point
favorite at home. The Bengals are 4-3-1 ATS this year and the total has
gone OVER in four of their last five games.


The running game received a big boost against Jacksonville after
rookie running back Jeremy Hill tallied 154 yards and two touchdowns on
24 carries in place of an injured Giovani Bernard. What continues to be
an ongoing issue with this team is a suddenly porous defense that is
ranked 30th in the league against the run and 30th in total yards
allowed (394.9). This is very uncharacteristic for a unit that was
consistently one of the best in the NFL last season.


The Bengals have dominated this series SU over the years with 14 wins
in the last 19 meetings, but they are 1-3-1 ATS in the last five games
of this series. Despite this trend, I am looking for Cincinnati to make
it a very forgettable road visit on Thursday night for the Browns with a
solid victory at home that covers the six-point spread on BetAnySport’s
current board.

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 10: Cleveland Browns vs. Cincinnati Bengals – Thursday, Nov. 6

Thursday, October 30, 2014

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 8: New Orleans Saints vs. Carolina Panthers – Thursday, Oct. 30


Betting on Panthers football

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 8


New Orleans Saints vs. Carolina Panthers – Thursday, Oct. 30


BAS’ Current Line: Saints -3 and the total is 49 1/2


Just when the betting public thought the Saints were dead in the
water after a 2-4 start both straight-up and against the spread, they go
out and hammer one of the hottest teams in the league with a 44-23 romp
over Green Bay this past Sunday as two-point home favorites on
BetAnySports closing NFL betting odds. The total easily went OVER an
inflated 55-point line and it has now gone OVER in their last four
games.


BetAnySports
has opened New Orleans as a one-point road favorite in this Thursday’s
NFC South showdown against Carolina and for good reason. The Saints are
0-4 SU on the road this season with a 1-3 mark ATS. They opened the
season with back-to-back road losses to Atlanta and Cleveland before
getting hammered by Dallas 38-17 as three-point road favorites. Just two
weeks ago New Orleans blew a late fourth-quarter 23-10 lead against
Detroit in a 27-26 loss a 1.5-point road underdog.


The Panthers fast 2-0 start both SU and ATS out of the gate is
becoming a distant memory after posting a dismal 1-4-1 SU record in
their last six games. They have been able to cover ATS in three of their
last four games and while the total stayed UNDER 44.5 points in this
past Sunday’s tough 13-9 loss to Seattle as six-point home underdogs, it
had gone OVER in their previous five games.


Defense was the primary reason while Carolina went 12-4 SU last
season on its way to the NFC South Division title, but this year this
side of the ball has been plagued with consistency issues from one week
to the next. Give this unit credit for holding Seattle in check with the
exception of a late-game score that cost the team the game. Prior to
this, the defense did allow 37 points in the Week 6 tie against
Cincinnati and 38 points the following week in a lopsided loss to Green
Bay. The offense has not helped the cause with 19 points or less in four
of the Panthers’ last six games.


The total has stayed UNDER in nine of the last 11 meetings in
Carolina and given New Orleans’ current form on the road and the
Panthers’ current form overall, I am going with the UNDER 49 on
BetAnySports betting odds as my top pick this time around as well.

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 8: New Orleans Saints vs. Carolina Panthers – Thursday, Oct. 30

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 8: San Diego Chargers vs. Denver Broncos – Thursday, Oct. 23


Betting on Broncos Football

San Diego Chargers vs. Denver Broncos – Thursday, Oct. 23


Current BAS’ Line: Broncos are 8 1/2 point favorites and the total is sitting at 51 1/2


Thursday Night Football features a battle for first place in the AFC
West between the 5-2 San Diego Chargers and the 5-1 Denver Broncos at
Sports Authority Field at Mile High. BetAnySports has opened the surging Broncos as 7.5-point home favorites, but it has yet to set the betting odds for the total line.


The Chargers were rolling along with a five-game winning streak
before it fell to another tough division opponent this past Sunday in a
last-minute 23-20 loss to Kansas City as three-point home favorites. The
total in this game stayed UNDER the 45.5-point closing line and it has
now stayed UNDER in three of their last five games. The 20 points
against Kansas City was the team’s lowest output since an 18-17 loss to
Arizona on opening day. Overall, the offense is ranked ninth in the NFL
in scoring with 26.3 points a game.


The biggest surprise with San Diego this season has been the play of
its defense. It did allow 28 points to Oakland in a tight Week 6 win,
but overall this unit is ranked third in the league in points allowed
(16.3). It is also ranked fifth in total yards allowed (316.4) and third
against the pass.


The Broncos are coming off an impressive 42-17 romp over San
Francisco as 6.5-point home favorites in a game where Peyton Manning set
a new NFL record for career passing touchdowns by tossing four in that
rout. Denver has now outscored its opponents a combined 114-54 in its
last three games. The offense is ranked fifth in total yards per game
(394.0) and the passing attack is accounting for close to 300 of those
yards. It is also ranked first in scoring with 31.5 points a game.


Much like the Chargers, Denver’s defense can take responsibility for a
good chunk of this team’s success so far. This unit is allowing an
average of just 20.2 points and in is sixth in total yards allowed
(316.8) and third against run.


BetAnySports’ past betting trends in this matchup tend to favor San
Diego on the road. While the Chargers have lost five of the last six
meetings straight-up, they have been able to cover against the spread in
five of its last six road games against the Broncos. I am going with
that play again as San Diego uses that extra half point to the fullest
in a seven point loss on the road to its division rivals.

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 8: San Diego Chargers vs. Denver Broncos – Thursday, Oct. 23

Thursday, October 16, 2014

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 7: New York Jets vs. New England Patriots – Thursday, Oct. 16


Betting on Patriots NFL Football


New York Jets vs. New England Patriots – Thursday, Oct. 16


Current BAS’ Line: Patriots are -9 1/2 and the total is sitting at 44 1/2.


The New York Jets will try and get their season back on track with a
visit to Foxborough to square-off against the bitter AFC East rival New
England Patriots, who are suddenly riding a two-game winning streak into
Thursday night’s game. BetAnySports has opened New England as a healthy 10.5-point home favorite for this prime-time clash with the total set at 46.5.


The Jets are in desperate need of a win to keep their season from
completely spiraling out of control after their current straight-up
losing streak reached five games with last Sunday’s 31-17 loss to Denver
as 9.5-point home underdogs. New York is now 0-5-1 against the spread
this season with the total going OVER in three of their last five games.


It has been a rocky start for second-year quarterback Geno Smith and a
Jets’ offense that is ranked 30th in the NFL in scoring with an average
of 16 points a game. They are also ranked 30th in yards per game and
the only bright spot so far has been a ground game that is averaging
121.2 yards per game. Things are not much better on the other side of
the ball with a defense that 25th in the league in points allowed
(26.3).


The Patriots’ bandwagon is close to standing room only again after
winning their last two games against Cincinnati and Buffalo by a
combined score of 80-39. They covered the spread in both of those
contests to improve to 4-2 SU and 3-3 ATS overall. The total has now
gone OVER in their last three games.


Patience and time was all that was needed to get New England’s much
maligned offense back to form considering that you are dealing with a
team that has won 10 or more games in each of its last 11 seasons. Tom
Brady has returned to form throwing the ball and the Patriots’ defense
is now ranked 11th in the NFL in points allowed (21.5) and fifth in
yards allowed (319.5), which is a complete reversal of this team’s
fortunes in a 2-2 SU start.


The Jets are 13-6 ATS in their last 19 road games against New England
despite the fact that they are 1-5 SU in the last six meetings. Given
both team’s current form, it is going to be really hard for New York to
cover this time around even with a very generous 10.5-point spread on
BetAnySports’ current NFL betting odds. Bottom line; take the home team
and lay the points in this AFC East tilt.

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 6: Indianapolis Colts vs. Houston Texans – Thursday, Oct. 9


Betting on Texans NFL Football
Indianapolis Colts vs. Houston Texans – Thursday, Oct. 9


BAS’ current line: Colts -2 1/2 and the total is sitting at 46


Thursday Night Football in Week 6 of the NFL season will feature a
battle for the top spot in the AFC South between the Indianapolis Colts
and the Houston Texans. Both teams come in with straight-up 3-2 records
and BetAnySports has opened the Colts as slight 2.5-point road favorites
for this game. The total has been set at 46.


The Colts have overcome a slow 0-2 start with three-straight
victories by a combined score of 105-47, but they had to work for last
Sunday’s win in a 20-13 grinder against Baltimore as 2.5-point favorites
at home. The total stayed UNDER the 49.5-point closing line on BetAnySports
NFL betting odds after going OVER in their first four games.
Indianapolis is now a profitable 4-1 against the spread this season.


The one constant with this team regardless of the final score on the
board has been third-year quarterback Andrew Luck’s ability to move the
ball down the field through the air and throw touchdowns. He has already
passed for 1,617 yards and 14 touchdowns and the Colts’ offense as a
whole is ranked second in the NFL in both yards (439.6) and points
(31.2) per game.


The Texans jumped out of the gate with three victories both SU and
ATS in their first four outings to eclipse last season’s two-game win
total, but they are coming off a tough 20-17 overtime loss to Dallas as
five-point road underdogs in Week 5. They are also 4-1 ATS in their
first five games and the total has stayed UNDER in three of those
contests.


If Houston is going to climb back on top of the division after last
season’s hard fall it will be behind a defense that is ranked fourth in
the NFL in points allowed. This unit is giving-up an average of 17.4
points a game overall and just 11.5 points at home this season. JJ Watt
has been a force so far and he was recently named the NFL Defensive
Player of the Month in September.


The Colts are 20-4 SU in their last 24 games against Houston, but
they have covered in just two of their last eight road games against
their division rivals. The total in this matchup has gone OVER in seven
of the last nine meetings in Houston. I am sticking with the home team
once again in this AFC South showdown as the Texans cover with the
2.5-points on BetAnySports’ current betting odds.

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 6: Indianapolis Colts vs. Houston Texans – Thursday, Oct. 9

Thursday, October 2, 2014

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 5: Minnesota Vikings vs. Green Bay Packers – Thursday, Oct. 2


Betting on Green Bay Packers Football

Minnesota Vikings vs. Green Bay Packers


BAS’ current line: Packers -8 and the total is at 48


It is a good old fashion Black and Blue Division rivalry this
Thursday night when the Minnesota Vikings go on the road to square-off
against the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field. BetAnySports opened the Packers as a heavy 10.5-point favorites for this game with the total opened at 50 1/2.


The Vikings come into this game riding high after crushing Atlanta
41-28 this past Sunday as 5.5-point home underdogs on BetAnySports’
closing NFL betting odds. The total went well above the 47.5-point line.
The amazing thing about this win is that Minnesota was starting rookie
quarterback Teddy Bridgewater for the first time this season. He
responded with 317 passing yards while completing 19-of-30 attempts,
despite leaving the game early in the fourth quarter with an ankle
sprain. He remains questionable for Thursday night.


This was just the spark Minnesota needed after suffering back-to-back
losses to New England and New Orleans while scoring a grand total of 16
points. The total stayed UNDER in both of those contests. The other
encouraging sign is the 135 rushing yards that Jerick McKinnon gained
for the Vikings on just 18 carries.


Green Bay was another team that got off to a rough start with just
one SU win in its first three games, but this past Sunday it showed
everyone exactly why it remains a heavy favorite to win the NFC North
again this year. The Packers’ offense regained its form in a crucial
38-17 victory over Chicago as two-point road favorites on BetAnySports’
closing betting spread. The total went OVER the 51-point closing line
and it has now gone OVER in three of their first four games.


Aaron Rodgers came under a bit of fire for his sluggish start, but he
was on fire against the Bears with 302 yards passing and four scoring
strikes. Green Bay scored on its first six possessions and its defense
went on to shut Chicago out in the second half of this game. This is the
winning recipe that the fans at Lambeau have grown accustomed to, so I
am sure they will give the home team all the support in the world this
Thursday night in prime time.


Bridgewater should be back in the starting lineup for this game, but
this matchup is all about Rodgers going against Vikings’ defense that is
ranked 17th in the NFL against the pass. The advantage obviously goes
in favor of the Packers, but I am actually going with Minnesota to still
cover with the 10.5 points on BetAnySports betting odds.

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 4 — New York Giants vs. Washington Redskins – Thursday, Sept.25


Betting on Redskins Football

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 4


New York Giants vs. Washington Redskins – Thursday, Sept.25


Current BAS’ Line: Redskins -3 1/2 and the total is sitting at 45 1/2.


The New York Giants and the Washington Redskins will kick-off Week 4
of the NFL regular season on Thursday Night Football in a battle between
two NFC East rivals that cannot afford to fall too far off the pace in
the division title race. Both teams come in with 1-2 straight-up record
to start the year and BetAnySports has listed Washington as a 3 1/2 point home favorite on its NFL betting odds for this game. The total has been set at 45 1/2.


Some bettors had given the Giants up for dead after a second-straight
slow start out of the gate, but they ended this season’s slide at two
games with an impressive 30-17 victory over Houston as 1.5-point home
favorites this past Sunday. This followed lopsided losses to Detroit and
Arizona by a combined score of 60-28 in their first two games. The
total went OVER BetAnySports’ 41.5-point closing line against the
Texans.


One of the biggest differences this past week verse New York’s first
two games was the play of veteran quarterback Eli Manning. After
starting the season with four interceptions in two games, he remained
turnover-free while connecting on 21-of-28 attempts for 234 yards and
two touchdown throws. The Giants’ defense did its part by picking-off
Houston quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick three times.


Washington has been forced to turn to Kirk Cousins as its starting
quarterback for an injured Robert Griffin III, but that might not be
such a bad thing. Despite the 37-34 loss to Philadelphia this past
Sunday as four-point road underdogs, the Redskins new starter threw for
427 yards and three scores. The offense gained 511 total yards while
carving out a nine-minute edge in time of possession.


If Cousins can put up numbers like that against New York’s defense
then Washington should roll in this one as the Giants do not have nearly
the offensive firepower to keep up on the scoreboard. I actually see
this game turning into a hard-fought back-and-forth battle between two
heated rivals. However, in the end stick with the home team to get the
win both straight-up and against the spread while laying the four
points. The Giants are just 4-9 ATS in their last 13 road games on
BetAnySports’ closing betting odds and the Redskins have a 5-2 edge ATS
in the last seven meetings in this series.

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 3– Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Atlanta Falcons – Thursday, Sept.18


Betting on Atlanta Falcons Football

Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Atlanta Falcons – Thursday, Sept.18


BetAnySports’ Current Line: Falcons -6 1/2 and the total is 44 1/2


Thursday Night Football in Week 3 of the new NFL season features a
NFC South showdown between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Atlanta
Falcons. Each is trying to get back to its winning ways after suffering a
setback this past Sunday. BetAnySports has opened the Falcons as
six-point home favorites on its initial NFL betting odds and the total
for the game is 44 1/2.


Tampa Bay is actually still looking for its first win of the year
after losing to Carolina 20-14 on opening day as a five-point home
favorite. The Buccaneers followed this up with a tough 19-17 loss to St.
Louis at home as 4.5-point favorites at home. This extended their
current losing streak to five games straight-up and they are also 0-5
against the spread in their last five outings.


Lovie Smith took over the helm as Tampa Bay’s new head coach this
season, but many of the same old problems with this offense continue to
rear their ugly head. The Buccaneers were ranked 30th in the league last
season in scoring with an average of 18 points a game and they have yet
to even hit that total this year. This is putting some tremendous
pressure on a defense that has already been on the field way too long.


The Falcons were the darlings of the NFC South in Week 1 with a
stunning 37-34 overtime victory over New Orleans as three-point home
underdogs. They went on the road this past Sunday as 5.5-point underdogs
against Cincinnati and looked the part with a 24-10 loss. This
Thursday’s game now becomes a crucial test for a team that went 13-3 SU
in 2012 only to fall to 4-12 last year.


Matt Ryan continues to throw the ball all over the field with an
NFL-high 679 passing yards, but this past Sunday against the Bengals he
only completed 54.5 percent of his 44 attempts and he was picked-off
three times. Atlanta struggled to run the ball with Steven Jackson
leading the way with just 46 yards on 11 carries and the offense only
managed 309 total yards after piling-up 568 yards against the Saints.


Both teams obviously had their problems last Sunday, but Tampa Bay
looks like its issues are going to drag for a few more games at the
least. Stick with Atlanta to bounce back with a big win at home that
easily covers BetAnySports’ six-point spread.

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 2: Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Baltimore Ravens – Thursday, Sept.11


Betting on Ravens NFL Football

Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Baltimore Ravens – Thursday, Sept.11


It is only Week 2 of the new NFL regular season and the Baltimore
Ravens could be facing a must-win situation this Thursday night when
they play host to the Pittsburgh Steelers in a classic AFC North rivalry
game. BetAnySports
has opened the Steelers as slight 2.5-point road underdogs on its
opening NFL betting odds and the total for the game has been set at 44.


Pittsburgh appeared to be cruising to an easy victory against
Cleveland this past Sunday as a 5.5-point home favorite in its season
opener, but it had to eventually sweat-out a 30-27 win that went right
down to the wire. The total easily went OVER the 41.5-point closing line
and it has now gone OVER in five of the Steelers last six games.


Ben Roethlisberger passed for 365 yards while completing 23-of-34
attempts and running back Le’Veon Bell added another 109 yards and a
score on the ground on 21 carries. The big question mark heading into
Thursday’s matchup is which Pittsburgh defense is going to show up? The
one that held the Browns to three points in the first half or the one
that gave-up 24 points in the final two quarters.


Baltimore got off to a painfully slow start in its 23-16 loss to
Cincinnati on opening day. It closed as a one-point favorite at home and
the total stayed UNDER the 43.5-point line. After falling behind 15-0
on five Bengals’ field goals, the Ravens battled back to a one-point
lead only to let it slip away on a 77-yard touchdown throw from Andy
Dalton to AJ Green.


Ravens’ quarterback Joe Flacco put the ball up 62 times and he
completed 35 passes for 345 yards and a score on an 80-yard pass play to
Steve Smith. Baltimore’s Justin Forsett added 70 yards on the ground on
11 carries including a 13-yard run for a touchdown early in the second
half to finally put his team on the board.


When you think of this rivalry in the past, you would probably expect
another grinder that ends with both teams struggling to score points,
but given what we saw from each team’s quarterback as well as its
defense, I am going OVER BetAnySports’ 44-point total line as my
official pick in this game.

BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week — Green Bay Packers at Seattle Seahawks – Thursday, Sept.4


Betting on Seahawks Football


BetAnySports’ NFL Pick of the Week- Week 1


Green Bay Packers at Seattle Seahawks – Thursday, Sept.4


BAS’ current line: Seahawks -5 1/2 and the total is at 46.5


The start of another season in the NFL gets underway with a bang this
Thursday night when the Green Bay Packers invade CenturyLink Field to
square-off against the defending Super Bowl Champion Seattle Seahawks. BetAnySports has listed the Seahawks as 5 1/2 home favorites with the total set at 46.5 points.


Green Bay won the NFC North last season with a straight-up record of
8-7-1 and it became very apparent that this is a totally different team
without quarterback Aaron Rodgers in the lineup. The Packers went 6-2 SU
with the veteran gunslinger under center and they fell to 2-5-1 SU when
he was recovering from a broken collarbone. The running game is
anchored by Eddie Lacy and overall this offense was ranked third in the
NFL in total yards and eighth in scoring with an average of 26.1 points
per game.


The Packers’ defense slipped to 25th in the league in total yards
allowed last season and this unit allowed an average of 26.8 PPG. Head
coach Mike McCarthy drafted free safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix with the 21st
overall pick and then went on to add two additional defensive players in
the first four rounds to add some depth on this side of the ball.


Seattle opened the 2013 season as second-favorites behind San
Francisco to even win its division, but after going 13-3 to claim the
NFC West title, it went on to win last year’s Super Bowl in a convincing
fashion. Ever since the reigning champs have been given the honor of
opening the new season with the first game of the year, they have gone
18-2 SU (11-9 against the spread).


There is no doubt that Seattle remains one of the most talented teams
in the league behind quarterback Russell Wilson and a defense that was
ranked first in the NFL in both yards and points allowed. The trick to
repeating this feat is to avoid the dreaded Super Bowl hangover that has
impacted so many other teams over the years.


It is hard to bet against the winning trend for Super Bowl champs in
the following season’s opener, but that is a SU result. I am following
suit in my official pick for this game with Seattle getting the SU win,
while Green Bay covers with the five points on the road in BetAnySports’
NFL betting odds for this game.

NFL Odds: Seahawks and Packers Take Spotlight in Thursday Night Debut


Betting on Seahawks Football

In little over a week, the Seattle Seahawks will set out to
officially reprise their roles as Super Bowl champions. The titleholders
will kick off the new campaign as hosts to the Green Bay Packers in
Thursday night’s opening week matchup. They’re 13/2 to win a second
consecutive ring, making them an intriguing NFL betting option.

The Seahawks have established themselves as a defensive powerhouse
over the past few seasons, and that’s partially because of cornerback
Richard Sherman. Seattle went 11-5 against the spread last season and
steamrolled the Denver Broncos during the Super Bowl Championship.


This year, the Seahawks have a target on their backs, and teams like
Green Bay will take advantage of that. The Packers were just 7-9 against
the spread in 2013, and they barely managed to sneak into the
postseason.


Aaron Rodgers and the Packers have been in Seattle’s position before.
With 10/1 NFL odds heading into the season, the Packers could even
repeat their 2011 success.
