The Cincinnati Bengals will start the 2016 regular season as men on a mission – whether that makes them NFL betting online favorites against the New York Jets on September 11th at MetLife Stadium has yet to be seen. In any case, these are the football betting odds for these two teams’ season opener: Bengals -2 (-110) 42 (-110) Jets +2 (-110) 42 (-110)
Professional football is so close that fans are beginning to dream of a successful NFL betting season. But there’s no reason why those dreams shouldn’t become a reality. With a small amount of luck and a large amount of preparation making the right predictions can be stress-free. There are plenty of betting lines to choose from and one of particular interest is the prediction for the NFC West. The Cardinals came away with the division last year and a brief look at the division’s history will reveal that their likely to come away with it in 2016. The Seattle Seahawks won the division in 2013 and followed that season by winning the West again in 2014, but they were just following suit.
The Seattle Seahawks will visit the Oakland Raiders to give fans who bet on NFL one last chance to put some money on them – for the preseason, that is. These are the NFL online betting odds for the game on September 1st at the Oakland Alameda Coliseum: Seahawks +1½ (-105) 38½ (-110) Raiders -1½ (-115) 38½ (-110)
New York, New York indeed. Big Apple fans who like to bet on NFL will be torn when it comes to choosing between the Giants and the Jets when the two teams clash on Saturday, August 27th at MetLife Stadium (where else?). Or not. Either way, it is as good a chance as any to place an online NFL bet.
NFL betting fans who stuck to the Cincinnati Bengals after their preseason opener loss to the Minnesota Vikings got their worth for the money they bet on NFL.
As the preseason continues to roll on, sportsbooks continue to prime their NFL betting lines in anticipation for another football season. Even though the start of the 2016 NFL season is less than a month away it seems the NFL is still not ready to close the book on last year’s Al Jazeera report that defamed several NFL stars. As the drama continues to unfold it seems that the NFL is getting ready to hand out suspensions in response to the lack of interest the accused players have had in regards to getting to the bottom of this case.
NFL betting favorites such as the New England Patriots and the Denver Broncos delivered the goods in their preseason openers, while the Carolina Panthers started off on the wrong foot. In addition to that, teams that entered week 1 as the favorites in their respective match-ups also lived up to the expectations of people who bet on NFL.
People who bet on NFL need not wait until the start of the regular season to indulge in a bit of the ol’ NFL betting. For example, the Carolina Panthers will visit the Tennessee Titans at Nissan Stadium on Saturday, August 20th as part of both teams’ preseason.
The Cleveland Browns versus Green Bay Packers preseason game on Friday, 12th August is the proverbial David versus Goliath battle. However, if you’re betting on NFL, don’t expect little Dave to topple the Giant this time out. In 2015, the Packers ranked second in offense, 12th in defense, first in passing, and 21st in rushing. Meanwhile, the Browns ranked 32nd, 9th, 29th, and 29th in those same categories. Moreover, Green Bay finished the season with a 10-6 record, second place in the NFC North, won the Wild Card playoffs versus the Redskin, and finally lost the divisional playoffs versus the Cardinals. Cleveland finished last in the AFC North with a 3-13 record and, needless to say, did not make the postseason.
When you bet on NFL Hall of Fame Game this year between the Indianapolis Colts and the Green Bay Packers, you might want to keep in mind this little tidbit: Colts head coach Chuck Pagano intends to start his, well, starters for the 2016 edition of the match. “Everybody’s going to play,” Pagano said. Even the kid that always gets picked last? This is football betting site-worthy news because this is an exhibition game – it’s even less relevant than the rest of the preseason. That is to say, coaches very seldom play starters, and not for very long when they do.
