NFL Week 3 Picks

YTD 6-5-0
Units Staked 15.5
Profit/Loss +5.15 units

Usually i bet 5 or 6 games but this week is one of those weeks where i like a lot of games so i have 8 selections for you this week.

Philadelphia @ San Fransico
Philly -6
1 unit @ 1.926
Although the 49ers look much improved on offence their defence still sucks and McNabb should have a field day.

Jacksonville @ Indianapolis
Indy -7
1 unit @ 2.01
Indy at home in the regular season are near unbeatable and the Jags wont be able to put up enough points to cope with Manning's pace.

Cincinnati @ Pittsburgh
Cincinnati +2
1 unit @ 1.971
The Bengals are firing on all cylinders while the Steelers are clearly struggling. I can't believe Cincinnati are getting points, take them and be happy.

Chicago @ Minnesota
Chicago -3
2 units @ 1.800
Chicago are arguably the best team in the NFL and with Grossman finally free from injuries i believe they can go to the superbowl. Giving 3 points on the road shouldn't be too hard a task.

Tennessee @ Miami
Tennessee +11
1 unit @ 1.926
In a battle of two poor teams 11 points is too much to turn down.

Baltimore @ Cleveland
Baltimore -6.5
1 unit @ 1.952
The Ravens D has allowed both the fewest points and fewest yards in their opening two games and with Reuben Droughns only 50/50 at best to play the Browns will have a lot of trouble scoring.

Denver @ New England
New England -6.5
1 unit @ 1.901
Denver and in particular Plummer have been dissapointing this season wheras the Patriots have been business as usual despite losing key personnel. It doesn't matter who Brady has to throw to he will make completions and move the team down the field. Maroney has been the perfect boost in the arm to the injury prone Dillon to supplement the running game and with Harrison and Bruschi back in the D i like the Pats to avenge their playoff defeat of last season.


Atlanta @ New Orleans
New Orleans +3.5
1 unit @ 2.03
This is going to be a good one on Monday night and i like Drew Brees and the boys to carry the saints to an emotional win on their return to the Superdome. I think the saints can be the real deal this season with Brees a signifigant upgrade at QB who had a very good rookie WR in Marques Colston to throw to. Atlanta are a running team and if Vick and Dunn can be contained then the Saints will win.

All lines from Pinnacle correct at time of posting.
