Week 3 of the 2013 NFL campaign is going to get underway this weekend. Below you will find the current list of 2011 Week 3 NFL lines and spreads along with a breakdown of the Week 3 NFL odds. Be sure to check out the free NFL picks from the expert handicappers at Bankroll Sports this week…

There’s really a little something for everyone this week on the Week 3 NFL odds, knowing that there are some games that really could be blowouts and a ton of games that could be really close.

We’ll start though, with the 0-2 teams that are really in need of wins. There wasn’t a single team last season that started at 0-2 that made the playoffs, and history isn’t kind to teams that start off the campaign with a pair of defeats. It’s even less kind when you start 0-3, and it’s basically darn near impossible to get the job done from anything worse than that. That’s why the game between the Carolina Panthers and the New York Giants is so darn important. Neither team made the playoffs last season, and both need to get in this year if they want to ensure that their head coach will be back for next season. Both have been disappointing at 0-2, but in fairness, only one of the four games that were played between these featured one of them being favored. Carolina is giving 1 in the game, a clear sign that this one could go either way.

That’s a close call for sure, but the oddsmakers are having an insanely tough time separating most of these teams this week. Nine of the 16 games feature spreads of three points or fewer, and that’s as many as we ever see of the sorts.

5Dimes NFLFrom the top of the NFL rotation schedule, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles are going to war on Thursday Night Football, and of course, that means the return of Head Coach Andy Reid to the City of Brotherly Love with his new team. It will be interesting to see how the fans in Philly react to Reid wearing a red polo on the sidelines for a change. What’s most important though, is that the winner of this one is going to have a huge leg up for the rest of the year. A 3-0 start would be crucial for the Chiefs, who are trying to turn around the worst team in football from a season ago. Meanwhile, a 2-1 start for the Eagles would be proof that the Head Coach Chip Kelly style is indeed working. Remember that this is the third game in just 17 days for Philly though, and for the way that it gets up to the line of scrimmage and goes, this is could be a real problem. The Eagles are -3, but we know that KC has a very good chance to take the spoils in this one.

The San Diego Chargers and Tennessee Titans are both 1-1, and both blew leads to the Texans this year that kept them from being 2-0. These two teams have high hopes for Wild Card bids this year, and at least one of them might end up getting it. This game could go a long way in deciding all of that. The Bolts are getting three on the road, and they have to be careful with this being their second straight trip all the way East.

Points could be flying all over the place for the Detroit Lions and the Washington Redskins, as two of the young gun quarterbacks in the league in QB Matthew Stafford and QB Robert Griffin III do battle with one another. Washington badly needs to a win to get out of that 0-2 rut that we spoke of earlier, and it is -1 to get that donut out of the win column. The Miami Dolphins are also -3 at home against the Atlanta Falcons in one of the bigger games of the day in the 4:00 ET hour, while another AFC East team, the New York Jets are -1 at home against the Buffalo Bills in another of the late games.

However, what we are seeing this week as well is the fact that a lot of teams are on the road and laying just a small number of points as well. Generally speaking, that’s bad news for the road teams, but in this case, there are a lot of those roadies that seem to perhaps be sharper plays than normal due to the fact that the teams that are at home are darn good.

They all also have something in common this week as well. All three teams that are home underdogs are from the AFC North. The Pittsburgh Steelers are playing on Sunday Night Football against the Chicago Bears and are +2.5 at home. The Cincinnati Bengals are getting 2.5 from the Green Bay Packers at Paul Brown Stadium. And finally, the Houston Texans are -2.5 at the Baltimore Ravens. Of course, in the AFC North, all of the teams are still in the thick of the fight, though Pittsburgh clearly looks the part of the worst of the three teams. Cincinnati looks the best of the bunch, but it probably has the toughest game this week against the Pack, who have a history of going on the road and winning these big games… as long as they don’t come against teams from the NFC West…

The New Orleans Saints and New England Patriots are both laying a touchdown this week against the Arizona Cardinals and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers respectively. If either one of those two favored teams lose this week, there could be some real questions to answer, especially if it is New England losing at home to a completely dysfunctional Tampa Bay outfit. In middlng games, the Dallas Cowboys are -3.5 against the St. Louis Rams, and the Minnesota Vikings are -5.5 at home against the Cleveland Browns in the other battle of 0-2 teams.

What’s left on the docket that has yet to be discussed are all games that figure to be blowouts when push comes to shove, and they’re all games that are going to be played later on in the day on Sunday and on Monday.

In the 4:00 ET hour on Sunday, the Indianapolis Colts head West to take on the San Francisco 49ers. Head Coach Jim Harbaugh is going to be battling it out with the team that he put on his shoulders in the playoffs time and time again to earn himself the moniker of “Captain Comeback.” His Niners are giving 10 in this one, but we know that QB Andrew Luck has the ability to win this game if he can play at his best.

Meanwhile, the last two games that we have yet to talk about are the two biggest NFL point spreads that we have seen all season long. The Denver Broncos are -14.5 on Monday Night Football at home against the Oakland Raiders, while the Seattle Seahawks are -19.5 at home against the Jacksonville Jaguars. If Seattle can creep up to -20 in this game, it will be just the 10th time since 1985 that a team is favored by at least 20 points in a game, and a good chunk of the rest of those times belonged to the undefeated New England team that went 18-0 before losing in the Super Bowl to the Giants.

‘Totals’ have taken a bit of a step back this week. There is only one game lined in the 50s, and that’s the Thursday nighter between the Chiefs and Eagles. The number to beat is 50.5, which is the lowest ‘total’ thus far this year in a Philly game. We have to remember though, that the Chiefs have played two games that have come nowhere near the ‘total’, and if there is a man that knows all of the quirks of all of those high-flying players on offense, it’s Coach Reid.

There are some low ones this week as well, though none are lower than the 39 on the board between the Jets and the Bills, something that is to be expected from two teams that have two rookie quarterbacks under center. The Bears and Steelers are only featuring a ‘total’ of 40, while the Jags and Seahawks are lined at just 40.5. Jacksonville’s implied team total is just 10.5, which is the lowest number that we have seen on the board for any team this year.

Complete List of Week 2 NFL Vegas Lines Can Be Found Below
This article is written based off of the NFL opening betting lines at 5:00 AM on Tuesday 9/10. Updated pro football odds can be found at the bottom of this post.

49ers vs. SeahawksOne week of NFL betting action is in the books, and here at Bankroll Sports, we are set to give it a go with our Week 2 NFL betting lines. Join us as we break down all 16 of the games on the NFL rotation schedule and check out which ones have the hottest bets to place.

For the second straight weekend, the New England Patriots are going to be the biggest favorites on the NFL odds, and we still aren’t all that sure that they are that good. This time, they’ve got the New York Jets coming to town for the home opener in Foxboro, but we still see a heck of a lot of problems. RB Stevan Ridley is fumbling the ball all over the place, while RB Shane Vereen is now going to join TE Rob Gronkowski on the sidelines injured. The receivers don’t really look like they have much of a clue as to where they are running routes to on a regular basis, and that’s going to prove to be problematic going forward. QB Geno Smith won the first start of his career against the Bucs, but this is a much, much different task going on the road to Foxboro on a short week of preparation against the behemoths of the division.

Last week, we had a ton of very close NFL point spreads, but this week, the numbers are a lot more spread out. There are eight spreads that are featuring at least 6.5 points or more, and a lot of those games wouldn’t have been set this high even just a week ago.

5Dimes NFLFor example, on Monday Night Football, the Cincinnati Bengals are taking on the Pittsburgh Steelers. Just last week before any game kicked off, the Bengals were slated to be -1.5 in that game. Now, after Pittsburgh looked so horrid in its opener against the Titans, it has risen all the way up to +6.5. Of course, injuries have a lot to do with that, knowing that the Steelers lost three players, most notably OL Maurkice Pouncey to season ending injuries on Sunday as well. The bottom line for Pittsburgh though, is that it cannot run the football to save its life for the second straight season, and regardless of who is back there, we don’t see any improvement. About the only good news for Pittsburgh is that everyone lost in Week 1 in the AFC North, and the possibility is there to rebound. Still, QB Andy Dalton looks the better of the two quarterbacks in this game at this point, and it is very justifiable to think that the Bengals could open at -6.5.

Other teams that are favored by 6.5 on Sunday include the Chicago Bears over the Minnesota Vikings, the Green Bay Packers over the Washington Redskins, the Baltimore Ravens over the Cleveland Browns, and perhaps most interesting of them all, the Philadelphia Eagles over the San Diego Chargers. There was a lot of respect here for the Chargers after a half of football against the Texans on Monday, but in the end, they were demoralized, getting beaten 31-28 after giving up 24 unanswered points to end the game. Philly meanwhile, has seen its stock shoot upward immediately. The Eagles were slight underdogs against the Redskins last week, and they turned out a tremendous performance, including running 53 plays in the first half, the most in an NFL game in the first half since the 1998 Vikings ran 58 plays in the first half. Head Coach Chip Kelly and company are amongst the big time movers and shakers, and there is a great chance that they could start at 2-0 this year. Do keep in mind though, that San Diego is 7-0 ATS in its last seven games played on short rest, and coming off of a Monday Night Football game into a Sunday game across the country, the Bolts are sure to be sharp as could be.

bovada

There are a couple other teams that are favored by more than 6.5. The Houston Texans, fresh off of their comeback we just spoke of against San Diego, will look to tame the Tennesssee Titans in their home opener as 8.5-point favorites on the NFL lines, while the Atlanta Falcons are giving seven to the St. Louis Rams.

There are going to be some tremendous close calls as well. The Carolina Panthers and New Orleans Saints are both AFC South teams that are favored by three on the road. The Panthers head north to take on the Buffalo Bills in a battle of 0-1 teams that lost heartbreakers against superior squads last week. New Orleans has the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a second straight crucial NFC South battle.

It’s amazing how quickly some are selling on the Indianapolis Colts. The team was favored by double digits last week and steamed like crazy against Oakland, yet now, it is only favored by three, the value of their home field advantage against the Miami Dolphins. QB Andrew Luck and company could be in for an upset if the oddsmakers have pegged this one even remotely right. Meanwhile, the Kansas City Chiefs are trending upward after crushing the Jags on Sunday, as they are favored by a field goal in their home opener against the Dallas Cowboys.

In the late games, the Detroit Lions and Arizona Cardinals are lined at a pick ’em, while the Oakland Raiders are 5.5-point favorites over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The last time Oakland was favored by more than four points was against none other than these Jaguars last year at the O.co Coliseum.

But of course, we still have yet to talk about the two biggest games of the weekend. The national game in the 4:00 ET hour is the clash of the Manning brothers. Younger brother QB Eli Manning had a rough go of it against the Cowboys last week, but he is still set to lead his New York Giants into battle against QB Peyton Manning and his Denver Broncos. The elder Manning threw an NFL record seven touchdown passes against Baltimore on Thursday last week, and he has a long week to prepare for his trip to the Meadowlands. If New York loses this game and starts at 0-2, the buzzards are going to start to swarm around Head Coach Tom Coughlin once again.

But the biggest game is the one in the NFC West between the Seattle Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers. Neither of these two played quite as well as perhaps their fans had been hoping for in Week 1, but both escaped with narrow victories to move to 1-0. This one though, is going to be a flat out war. Seattle hasn’t lost a game at home in darn near two full calendar years, and the 49ers were absolutely destroyed last season when they went to CenturyLink Field. The winner is probably going to hold the upper hand on the loser for at least the first part of the season until the return matchup at Candlestick Park later on this season. QB Russell Wilson and QB Colin Kaepernick should both be in for stern tests. The slight edge goes to Seattle at -2.5, but no results will be surprising.

Regarding ‘totals’ this week, the Manning Bowl features the highest number on the board at 54.5, and that shouldn’t be all that surprising that the number is that high. Last week featured 64 touchdown passes in the 16 games combined, the most in a single week in NFL history. Not surprisingly, there is only one game with a ‘total’ in the 30s, and that’s the clash between the offensively inept Jags and the offensive-sporadic Raiders, a number which is set at 39.5. The Monday nighter in the AFC North only sees a ‘total’ of 40.5 hit the NFL rotation schedule, while there are five other games in which a ‘total’ of at least 47 opened on the board. If you’re looking for some big time line movement on a ‘total’, consider the game between the Chargers and the Eagles. Both teams played high scoring Monday Night Football games last week, and Philly is going to be a trendy ‘over’ team all year long until Head Coach Chip Kelly and his mates slow down just a bit, something that we don’t see happening any time in the near future.

PackersAnd here we are at the start of the 2013 NFL betting campaign! The opening kickoff is right here upon us, and that means that there are plenty of NFL betting lines to discuss. Join us for a brief discussion of the NFL Week 1 pointspreads and check out how NFL line movements have looked as we have counted down to the start of the season.

Normally speaking, the defending Super Bowl champs open up the year in front of their hometown crowd. However, this time around, the Baltimore Ravens are going to be on the road. They are going to visit the Denver Broncos in a rematch of the divisional round of the playoffs last year between these two teams. There is no way that this game can be as epic as the game that these two played last January, but QB Joe Flacco is going to try to pull off yet another upset in what could be a great game. As interesting as it is, Baltimore is the biggest underdog on the board on the Week 1 odds at +9. This is a completely unique situation that you’ll probably never see again with the Lombardi Trophy holders underdogs by one of the biggest margin on the board in the opening week of the campaign.

5Dimes NFLWhen the calendar moves to the first Sunday of the regular season, there are going to be some tremendous games. There isn’t a single game that is featuring an NFL point spread of more than seven points. Not surprisingly, the teams that are the big favorites are the ones that were in the playoffs and competing for playoff spots last season, and the teams that are the big underdogs are all teams that didn’t get into the second season and weren’t particularly close.

There are a relatively high amount of road favorites in Week 1, though there is only one team that is favored by more than a field goal on the road. The New England Patriots, in spite of the fact that they are going to likely be coming into that first game without any of the top receivers from last year’s team, are laying nine points on the road to Orchard Park, where they have historically struggled with the Buffalo Bills. The Bills though, are using their first round pick, QB EJ Manuel in Week 1 of the season. It’s tough to think that he is going to be able to stand toe-to-toe with one of the best teams in the league. It’s not all that often you see a team getting nearly double digits of points at home all that often on the Week 1 NFL Vegas odds either. This line has had the most movement all week, and it isn’t even close, as New England has gone from an open at -6.5 up as high as 12.5 when QB Jeff Tuel was a possible starter, back to -9 where it sits now, and the oddsmakers could be in for a world of hurt in this game.

The Indianapolis Colts, in the second year of the QB Andrew Luck era, are laying a 9.5 against the Oakland Raiders in Week 1 as well, while the Pittsburgh Steelers are giving 7 to the Tennessee Titans.

Every other game on the docket enters this week with a spread of 4.5 points or fewer on the NFL betting lines.

Interestingly enough, all of the games that are involving a pair of NFC teams are relatively closely lined. The only game of the bunch between a pair of NFC teams that features more than a 4.5-point NFL spread is the clash between the St. Louis Rams and the Arizona Cardinals. QB Sam Bradford and the gang are 4.5-point favorites hosting Head Coach Bruce Arians in his first game as the head coach of the Cards. Arizona will also be debuting a new quarterback, as QB Carson Palmer heads to the desert to try to resurrect the franchise.

bovada

There are some huge divisional games on the first Sunday of the season. The Atlanta Falcons are the favorites in the NFC South this year, but they are going to have a heck of a lot of company. The team is going to have to go on the road to the Bayou for what should be a tremendously emotional game against the New Orleans Saints. The Saints are going to be happy to introduce Head Coach Sean Payton once again after coming back from his year-long suspension, and you can bet that he is going to want to send a message to the rest of the league by winning this first one against the team that hosted the NFC Championship Game last season. Interestingly enough, the oddsmakers think that these two teams are on level terms, knowing that New Orleans is favored by just the value of home field advantage, three points.

The Minnesota Vikings are 4.5-point underdogs against the Detroit Lions at Ford Field, while on Sunday Night Football, the Dallas Cowboys are giving a field goal against the New York Giants. Again, the teams in the NFC East are relatively close to each other in the eyes of the oddsmakers, and only be the fact that the Giants feature -115 at -3 can you really tell that they are they are considered to the slightly better of the two teams. QB Eli Manning is going to be excited to get this season underway, knowing that the Giants are essentially hosting the Super Bowl this year at MetLife Stadium. A win over the Cowboys on the road would be an awesome start to the season for the Super Bowl 46 winners.

The biggest game on Sunday though, features the Green Bay Packers against the San Francisco 49ers. The Niners started off last season’s run to the Super Bowl by going to Lambeau Field and beating Green Bay, a win that really set the tone for the whole season. These two teams last met in the postseason, a game in which the 49ers won 45-31. The Pack are going to want a tremendous amount of revenge on San Francisco, but they are going to have a tough time doing it at Candlestick Park, where the Niners went 7-1-1 SU and 5-4 ATS last season. Green Bay is going to get a 4.5-point head start from the oddsmakers though, and the hope is that that is going to be enough to at least snare a cover. If the team doesn’t get its defense in order though (the Pack allowed over 500 rushing yards in two games against the 49ers last year), there is no hope.

As always on the first Monday of the season, there are a pair of Monday Night Football games. The first of the two games pits the Washington Redskins against the Philadelphia Eagles. Knowing that Head Coach Chip Kelly is going to do with his offense is still impossible, and knowing whether QB Robert Griffin III is going to be able to play effectively is also impossible. That said, at least we know at this point that QB Michael Vick will be going against RG3 in what will be a clash of two of the most athletic pivots in the league. How that is going to translate on the field is still a mystery. Still, Washington is giving 3.5 points on the first Monday Night Football game of the season at FedEx Field, though the last time we saw the Skins on the field, they were getting beaten at home in the first round of the playoffs. Philly though, is coming off of one of the worst ATS seasons in the history of the league at 3-12-1 ATS.

The last game of the week pits the San Diego Chargers against the Houston Texans. This is the start of the Head Coach Mike McCoy era, and Bolts fans are going to be eager to take on one of the best teams in the league. This is a tough start of the season for the Texans, who are playing under the expectations that this will be a third straight year with the AFC South title. The Texans are going to be expected to be healthy going into the start of the year, which is why QB Matt Schaub and the gang are giving a field goal and a hook.

VietBet NFL

Totals are all over the place in Week 1, though the numbers are generally a lot higher than we are used to seeing after one of football’s highest scoring years in history. Only one of the 16 games feature totals of lower than 40. The clash between the two teams that had the worst two records in football last year, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Jacksonville Jaguars are going to fight it out in the Sunshine State to start the season, and that game has a total of just 39.5. The Miami Dolphins and the Cleveland Browns, neither of which were all that close to the second season last year but both of which are hoping to take big steps in the right direction, also featured a total of 39.5 at the open, but that number has risen up to 41.

On the other end of the spectrum, there are plenty of 48+ numbers out there. The opening game of the season between the Ravens and the Broncos features a total of 48.5, while the same could be said for that big time duel between the Packers and the 49ers. The clash between Washington and Philadelphia starts off the year at 50.5.

The highest numbers of the week are in the games involving the Patriots and Bills and the Falcons and Saints. We are a bit surprised that a game between a rookie quarterback and a team with an entirely new set of receivers (New England/Buffalo) features a total of 51, even after the announcement that it was likely going to be Tuel quarterbacking in Week 1. With Manuel under center though, the game makes a heck of a lot more sense with a number this high, as the rookie out of Florida State looked good in the preseason until he was hurt. However, that number pales in comparison to the 54 between the Falcons and the Saints. That’s one of the highest numbers that we have ever seen in a Week 1 game, and this could be a heck of a battle right out of the blocks.

AFC Championship GameThe 2013 NFL season is here! It’s time to take a look at the odds to win the AFC, as we break down the 16 teams that are in the thick of the fight and take a look at each of their prices to win the AFC, sponsored by WagerWeb Sportsbook, home the 200% Deposit Bonus

AFC East Odds To Win the AFC
New England Patriots +325
Miami Dolphins +2000
Buffalo Bills +5000
New York Jets +6600

It is clear that there is one team and one team only that has a chance to win the AFC out of the East, and that’s the Patriots. Miami is a trendy team, but we really don’t see any chance for Ryan Tannehill to take a team to the Super Bowl quite yet. Even New England is a bit of a stretch in our eyes, though we do think that Tom Brady is going to figure it out at some point this year even though at the start of the season, he is going to need nametags to identify anyone in his own receiving corps. The Bills could become an interesting team to watch if EJ Manuel is the second coming of Russell Wilson, while the Jets are just going to be a joke for the entire season. Even if New York does manage to win eight games and perhaps sneak into the back end of the playoffs, is Mark Sanchez (yes, the butt fumbling Mark Sanchez) going to get into the Super Bowl? We think not.

AFC North Odds To Win the AFC
Pittsburgh Steelers +1100
Baltimore Ravens +1150
Cincinnati Bengals +1250
Cleveland Browns +6000

Do you really need any further proof that the AFC North is the toughest division in the AFC to try to handicap? Three of the four teams in the foursome are between 11 and 12.50 to 1 to make it to the Super Bowl. Of course, that means that few believe that there is any chance this year for any of these teams to make it to New York, but then again, few really thought there was a chance to get the job done last year either when the Ravens not only got there, but won the whole dang thing. The problem that we have is that all of these teams just don’t look all that special when push comes to shove. Baltimore lost a ton in the offseason, and Pittsburgh is a really young looking team outside of Ben Roethlisberger. Perhaps Cincinnati is taking some steps in the right direction, and Andy Dalton might command the respect necessary to consider, but there are three huge games that this team still needs to win, and if the Bengals can’t beat the Texans, they probably aren’t going to the Super Bowl. The Browns would clearly be the biggest shocker of them all.

WagerWeb SportsbookAFC South Odds To Win the AFC
Houston Texans +685
Indianapolis Colts +2000
Tennessee Titans +6600
Jacksonville Jaguars +15000

Is there anyone in the AFC South really capable of winning two massive games against the likes of the Patriots, Broncos, etc.? We aren’t all that sure. Houston has tried the last two seasons, and it was beaten by both Baltimore and New England relatively soundly in both instances in the Divisional Round of the playoffs. The window of opportunity is clearly closing on the Texans, especially knowing that the Colts are coming up on the outside. Indy has fast-tracked itself to the thick of the playoff race once again on an annual basis, though Andrew Luck and the gang are a long ways away from making it to the Super Bowl. Many think that Tennessee is going to be a much improved team this year with its interior offensive line being so stellar, but we’ll believe that Chris Johnson is going to look anything like CJ2K again when we believe it. Jacksonville named Blaine Gabbert as its starting quarterback this week… In other news, we’re fairly certain that the Jags have locked up a Top 5 pick in the NFL Draft, and the phone calls are already being made to Teddy Bridgewater’s agent to see what his prospects are of coming to Jacksonville next year.

AFC West Odds To Win the AFC
Denver Broncos +240
Kansas City Chiefs +2000
San Diego Chargers +2200
Oakland Raiders +10000

There isn’t a team in the AFC that looks more complete right now than Denver. The Broncos might have the best quarterback in football in Peyton Manning, and he is certainly one of the best quarterbacks in the AFC, and they have the best receiving crop in the game as well with Demaryius Thomas, Eric Decker, and the newly acquired Wes Welker. There’s a chance for this defense to once again be stout as well. Kansas City has taken the most strides forward in the offseason, changing from a team that finished with the worst record in the league to one that believes it can get into the playoffs. San Diego has underachieved for years, and Norv Turner’s ousting might change all of that. Mike McCoy knows that he has a heck of a lot of work to do if he is going to bring this team back to the playoffs. The Raiders are trying to see how many more quarterbacks they can screw up over the course of the 2000s and 2010s. Matt Flynn and Terrelle Pryor seem to be the next ones in line.

Complete List of 2013 Odds To Win AFC East Found Below

AFC EastThe AFC East has belonged to the New England Patriots over the course of the last several years, and that seems to be the case once again this year. Our summer continues with an AFC East preview, as we look at all of the odds to win the AFC East for four teams in this grouping.

The New England Patriots (AFC East Odds: 1 to 5 SportBet Sportsbook) are once again the bona fide favorites to walk away with this division. We do think that the Pats are one of the best teams in the league, but we think that this is just as much a case of a team being in a bad division as much as anything else. There simply aren’t any challengers for the Brady Bunch, and for as long as QB Tom Brady stays healthy, this is going to be one of the best teams in football. Some are going to cringe at the idea of losing WR Wes Welker, who has had the most catches seemingly every year for the Pats for the last half decade. However, WR Danny Amendola was looked upon as “Wes Welker Jr.” for years and years with the St. Louis Rams, except he was dealing with #1: Injuries and #2: Sam Bradford at quarterback, a combination that has limited him. The defense for New England held teams under 21 points per game last season, and this is the unit that is really going to make the difference for this team when push comes to shove as we see it.

There really isn’t much of a shot for anyone else in the AFC East, but at least the Miami Dolphins (Odds To Win AFC East: 5 to 1 SportBet Sportsbook) seem to have a chance to get the job done to get into the playoffs. This was a team that was the butt of every joke two seasons ago, and even going into last year, there was a question as to whether QB Ryan Tannehill was going to have the ability to play in this league. Tannehill wasn’t the greatest last season, but he did prove that he can play some quarterback. The offense literally scored half the points of New England last season though, and that’s bad news going forward, especially with the best offensive weapon the team had last year, RB Reggie Bush is now gone from the team. Signing WR Mike Wallace amongst others should help at least get the team towards respectability, but we still aren’t sure that this team is amongst the best six in the AFC. There is no doubt that this is the second best team on paper in the division, though that might ultimately be the case if the team only wins six or seven games, too. Unless Tannehill turns out to be the next Tom Brady in a hurry, the Dolphins will always be second best in 2013.

The Buffalo Bills (2013 AFC East Betting Lines: 18 to 1 @ SportBet Sportsbook) released QB Ryan Fitzpatrick before the NFL Draft, and they were the one team that really didn’t have a chance to get a new quarterback to start in the offseason. QB Kevin Kolb doesn’t give us all the confidence in the world. The Bills were convinced that there were, as they put it “two men” that could be franchise quarterbacks. They took one of those men in QB EJ Manuel, and he might be handed the keys to the car right away. Florida State quarterbacks haven’t had a good history of late in the NFL though, and we aren’t all that optimistic that Manuel is going to be able to step right into the fold and win games either. There has been far too much money foolishly spent by the Bills. They might be handicapped for years to come if they can’t figure out how to get their act together and make some great draft picks. As we saw with the Seattle Seahawks last season though, it only takes the right quarterback to turn a very average team into a great team.

And now, we’re sending in the clowns. The New York Jets (NFL AFC East Division Odds: 10 to 1 SportBet Sportsbook) are the third favorites in the AFC East, not the complete underdogs, but we do think that they are finishing in the gutter in the division. The QB Tim Tebow experiment is over with, and it ended in the embarrassment of Tebow getting picked up by the Patriots, who oh by the way, are the team on the schedule in Week 2 of the season. It’s amazing that Head Coach Rex Ryan wasn’t fired for the joke of a team that he put on the field last year. QB Mark Sanchez is still probably going to be the starting quarterback in Week 1, but once again, he has another quarterback looking over his shoulder in QB Geno Smith, who was the team’s second round draft pick this year. There were plenty of good draft picks for New York this year, which might be the one thing that really saves this team going forward, but we aren’t so sure that it will make all that much of a difference when push comes to shove this year. For as long as Sanchez is the quarterback for this team, there are going to be problems.

Complete List of 2013 NFL Season Team Win Totals Below!

Here at Bankroll Sports Picks, we are always looking for ways to keep you up to date and informed on all the latest NFL betting odds, predictions, and news.  Looking to beat the football betting odds this year by betting NFL team win totals???  Or, do you just want to see what your team’s 2013 NFL win total odds are; as you’re wondering how many games the oddsmakers think your favorite NFL team will win in 2013. Today, we look at the upcoming 2o12 NFL season team win totals for all 32 of the teams in the league.  We also will discuss what we think each team will need to do to get above or stay below their projected season win total.

Arizona Cardinals 2013 NFL Season Win Totals: 5.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – Head Coach Bruce Arians was a savior last season in Indianapolis. Can he do the same for the Cardinals? This feels like a relatively low number for a team that doesn’t look that bad if you take away the quarterback position. Too bad the NFC West is a nightmare to try to win games in.

Atlanta Falcons 2013 NFL Season Win Totals: 10 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – Most make the assumption that the Falcons are going to be one of the best teams in the NFC once again this season. QB Matt Ryan has really only won from the time that he has stepped on the field in Atlanta, but we aren’t sold that he is winning 11 games once again this year in what could be one of the toughest divisions in the league. There is a case for all four teams to win the NFC South for sure.

Baltimore Ravens Projected Season Win Total: 8.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – Essentially, the oddsmakers are saying that the playoffs are more likely to go on without the Ravens this year than with them. That’s weird to say about the defending Super Bowl champs, but then again, it’s awfully odd to think that a team that just won the Super Bowl had to go through as much of an overhaul as these Ravens did.

Buffalo Bills NFL Season Win Total Preview: 6.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – In QB EJ Manuel we trust? The Bills think that the Florida State product is going to be able to turn around the fate of this franchise in a hurry. He’d better be able to, because there are a lot of overpaid players who are underachieving elsewhere on this roster.

2013 Carolina Panthers NFL Season Win Totals: 7 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – It feels like the Panthers have an over/under of around seven wins every year. This is the season that Head Coach Ron Rivera has to finish above .500 in, or he is going to be sent packing. QB Cam Newton has a lot of pressure on his shoulders right now as well to succeed in this, his third year with the club.

Chicago Bears 2013 NFL Season Win Totals: 8.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – QB Jay Cutler is out of excuses now. He’s got an elite receiver in WR Brandon Marshall, and he is rid of former coach Lovie Smith. Head Coach Marc Trestman is a quarterback guru, and he is surely going to be running a wide open offense this season in the Windy City. If Cutler can’t succeed now, he’s never going to.

Cincinnati Bengals Projected Season Win Total: 8.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – The Bengals are our favorite team this year in the AFC North. Baltimore has hit the reset button and is building around QB Joe Flacco. The Steelers have sent a lot of their older players packing. Meanwhile, Cincinnati is buzzing with QB Andy Dalton and WR AJ Green as the leaders of what is turning into a pretty darn good offense. The Bengals might be set for a third straight playoff appearance this season.

Cleveland Browns NFL Team Win Total: 6 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – The oddsmakers probably have this one pegged, though we wouldn’t be all that surprised if the Browns ultimately figured out how to inch near the .500 mark this season. This defense was one of the most underappreciated in all of football in 2012, and adding LB Paul Kruger and LB/DE Barkevious Mingo is only going to help matters out.

2013 Dallas Cowboys NFL Season Win Totals: 8.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – Dallas is playing in the most wide open division in the game this year, as there are a ton of questions in the NFC East. The good news is that no one is going to be caught sleeping on the Redskins any longer with RG3 at the helm. It’s a make or break season for Head Coach Jason Garrett, who will probably be fired by Thanksgiving if the team isn’t competing.

Denver Broncos 2013 NFL Season Win Totals: 11.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – QB Peyton Manning has himself a heck of an offense around him this year. WR Eric Decker, WR Demaryius Thomas, and WR Wes Welker could all be 1,000-yard receivers when it is all said and done with. The problem, if there is one, is that the defense could turn out to be a bit suspect. Still, this is a really high number, as Denver would be asked to win 12 games this year to go past its season win total.

Detroit Lions Projected Season Win Total: 8 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – Will the real Detroit Lions please stand up? The Lions of two seasons ago made the playoffs and really looked like they were going to take a jump up to the next level as one of the competing teams in the NFL. The Lions of last year though, looked a heck of a lot like the Dolphins that we are used to seeing on a regular basis.

Green Bay Packers NFL Season Win Total Preview: 10.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – The Packers had the highest over/under in the game last year at a whopping 12, and they ended up falling short of that number by a game. The season win total is a bit more modest this time at 10.5, and we think that the rest of the NFC North is probably just a bit down from where it ended up last season. QB Aaron Rodgers and the Pack very well could be underrated.

Houston Texans 2013 NFL Season Win Total: 10.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – The schedule is hellacious at the end of the year for Houston, so if you’re betting the over, you’d better hope that this is a team that is at least 9-3 through its first 12 games of the season. The Texans have a history of punting a few games down the stretch that they have no business punting, and that has kept them from byes in each of the last two seasons. This is only about the regular season though, and we really like the way that this team looks.

Indianapolis Colts 2013 NFL Season Win Totals: 8.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – Last year, we had egg on our face. The Colts were only projected to win 5.5 games, and we made fun of it, thinking that it was way too high. Whoops. Indy proved us wrong, and the oddsmakers have bumped the number up to 8.5 as a result this season, one of the most dramatic jumps that any team has taken in the league. Can QB Andrew Luck avoid the sophomore slump? If he can, it’s tough to think that the Colts are going to win fewer than nine games, especially with four games coming against the Titans and Jags.

Jacksonville Jaguars Projected Season Win Total: 5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – RB Maurice Jones-Drew was nowhere to be found for most of last season, and this year, he might be over the hill. The Jags didn’t get a new quarterback, and the Blaine Gabbert/Chad Henne experiment isn’t going to work for long. The only thing that we’ll say nice about Jacksonville is that the schedule sets up nicely. That’s all that is going to keep this club anywhere near this necessary six-win mark to get to the over.

Kansas City Chiefs NFL Season Win Total Preview: 7.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – KC was the worst team in football last season, but the whole franchise has hit the reset button. QB Matt Cassel is out. QB Alex Smith is in. Head Coach Romeo Crennel is out. Head Coach Andy Reid is in. The AFC West still stinks outside of Denver, and the wins are going to be there for the taking against some of the shoddy teams that finished in last place in the AFC divisions last season. Many think that this is the surprise team of 2013.

5Dimes Sportsbook

2013 Miami Dolphins NFL Season Win Totals: 8 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – The Dolphins a playoff team? When you really think about it, outside of Houston, New England, and Denver, who else is guaranteed a playoff spot in 2013? Not really anyone. The Dolphins spent a lot of money in the offseason, and they are going to do what they can to try to get into the second season this year and out of that realm as one of the average teams in the league.

Minnesota Vikings 2013 NFL Season Win Totals: 7.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – Another oops on our part from last year. The Vikings had an over/under of just six wins, and we thought there was no chance that they were going to get to seven wins. They got to 10, they reached the playoffs, and yet their season win total only inched up to 7.5. Vegas was built off of people betting the over on props like this one. We don’t see RB Adrian Peterson running for 2,000+ yards again this year, and as long as that turns out to be the case, this isn’t a .500 team.

New England Patriots Projected Season Win Total: 11.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – The Patriots have had an odd offseason. They are going to start the season with virtually every single viable option from last year’s passing game no longer on the club for one reason or another. TE Rob Gronkowski isn’t healthy, and we don’t know when that is going to change. Still, is there anyone doubting the Brady Bunch right now? He’s still QB Tom Brady, and he still has Head Coach Bill Belichick at his disposal. We have to think that New England is at least going to threaten this 11.5-win mark.

New Orleans Saints NFL Season Win Total Preview: 9 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – The Saints were lost last season without Head Coach Sean Payton. Now, Payton is back, and he should be bringing the aggressive style back to the Bayou. QB Drew Brees had a good statistical season last year, but he just didn’t seem as effective in the clutch late in games. Expect more out of New Orleans this year.

New York Giants NFL Season Win Totals: 9 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – It almost seems like a guarantee that the Giants are going to finish somewhere between eight and 10 wins this season, and seemingly every season. This one has got some added pressure to it, knowing that the G-Men are essentially hosting the Super Bowl at MetLife Stadium. QB Eli Manning could get the job done.

New York Jets 2013 NFL Season Win Totals: 6.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – See ya, Rex. At least Head Coach Rex Ryan was able to get rid of QB Tim Tebow in the offseason, but the bad news is that he wasn’t able to get rid of the buttfumbler himself, QB Mark Sanchez. We really think that the team should just start QB Geno Smith right now, as that might give New York the best chance to win. Don’t forget that the Jets still have the talent to have an elite level defense, too.

Oakland Raiders Projected Season Win Total: 5.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – Oakland’s over/under was seven wins last year. When the laughter stops, we’ll continue. Is QB Matt Flynn going to be the answer to the Raiders’ woes? Somehow, we just don’t believe that this franchise is really ever going in the right direction.

Philadelphia Eagles NFL Season Win Total Preview: 7.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – This is the biggest wild card team of the bunch this year. The Eagles have some talented pieces, though they are a bit less talented without WR Jeremy Maclin in the fold after his ACL injury. QB Michael Vick could be a perfect quarterback for Head Coach Chip Kelly’s system. Will Kelly be able to make magic in the NFL the same way that he did for all those years at Oregon? Eventually, the answer is clearly going to be yes, but in Year 1, that might be a little tough.

Pittsburgh Steelers NFL Season Win Totals: 9 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – The Pittsburgh offensive line is still so-so at best, and the team around QB Ben Roethlisberger just doesn’t look all that great. So why is Pittsburgh’s over/under nine wins this year? We think that a lot more of it has to do with the fact that they are the Steelers, so of course, they should be winning at least nine games every season. In actuality, we think this is a 7-9 team this year.

San Diego Chargers 2013 NFL Season Win Totals: 7.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – We had the Bolts pegged last year as an under team for our season win totals, and we think that they are going to be behind the times once again in this one. Head Coach Mike McCoy might be able to bring this team to a competitive level again, but the bottom line is that this is no longer a team that is going to be able to say that it did less with more than anyone else in football. The bottom line is that most of the talent on this team is now old talent.

San Francisco 49ers Projected Season Win Total: 11.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – When you’ve got two games against the Seahawks and your schedule starts with Green Bay, Seattle, Indy, St. Louis, and Houston, not to mention the fact that you have four East Coast trips lined up from October through December, it’s tough to want to bet over on your season win total. The Niners might be the best team in football, but they aren’t getting to 12 wins with this horrendous schedule.

Seattle Seahawks NFL Season Win Total Preview: 10.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – A lot of the problems that the 49ers have, the Seahawks have as well. They do dodge some of the top teams that San Francisco has to play though, and that might make all the difference in the world. Seattle went a perfect 8-0 last year at home, and if QB Russell Wilson is for real, we aren’t putting it past the Seahawks to do it once again in 2013.

2013 St. Louis Rams NFL Season Win Totals: 7.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – The Rams really had a tremendous season last year relatively speaking. Head Coach Jeff Fisher has them going in the right direction. The issue that this team has is that it just isn’t set at the quarterback position. Time has to be running out on QB Sam Bradford, and if he doesn’t prove that he was worthy of being the #1 overall pick in the NFL Draft all those years ago, he is going to have to be replaced and replaced very soon.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2013 NFL Season Win Totals: 7.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – Tampa Bay proved to be competitive last season under rookie Head Coach Greg Schiano, and a few additions along the way on the defensive side of the ball might carry this team to the playoffs. In the end though, we know that QB Josh Freeman is going to be under the gun from the get go, and with rookie QB Mike Glennon and his big arm sitting on the sidelines and the team still featuring a ton of cap money to spend in the future, Freeman had better watch his back.

Tennessee Titans Projected Season Win Total: 6.5 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – QB Jake Locker just isn’t that good. He’s a bust who is always injured, but the team is hanging onto him due to the fact that there really aren’t many great options. This receiving corps might be one of the most underrated in football, but you’ve got to have a quarterback that can get the ball out quickly and an offensive line that can protect to make receivers mean anything. The schedule isn’t so bad in the AFC South, though.

Washington Redskins NFL Season Win Total Preview: 8 @ GT Bets Sportsbook – The Redskins made the playoffs last season under rookie QB Robert Griffin III, but he tore his ACL in the playoff game and is clearly in question for the start of the season. Still, we think that this defense is going to carry this team to at least a .500 mark this year. This win total should be at least a half game higher in our eyes than it is, even if Griffin does have some issues. We have confidence in QB Kirk Cousins as well.

NFL Hall of Fame GameThe 2013 NFL season is upon us, and the Hall of Fame Game is what kicks it all off on Sunday night in Canton, OH, the home of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. This year, the teams that will put toe to leather to start the campaign are the Dallas Cowboys and the Miami Dolphins. But before you place a bet on Hall of Fame Game, we have everything that you’ll ever need to know covered for what should be a remarkable start to the season.

The Hall of Fame Game odds usually feature a relatively low ‘total’, and this year is no exception. Head Coach Jason Garrett for the Cowboys has already stated that he is going to be using his starters and his second stringers very little, and that means that there is going to be a very simple offensive game plan in place that will be run by third and fourth string quarterbacks. On the other side of the ball, we don’t expect to see much out of QB Ryan Tannehill either. In fact, coaches have almost always played the Hall of Fame Game relatively close to the vest offensively. We have seen some odd plays on special teams, namely an onside kick for the Indianapolis Colts to start off the season in 2008, and a fake punt by P AJ Trapasso that went for a touchdown in 2009. Aside from that though, defenses tend to rule the day, and if not for some of the shenanigans that came out on special teams in recent years, seemingly every Hall of Fame Game would fail to reach the ‘total’.
