It’s a rare occasion that Drew Brees throws 4 INTs in a month but to unleash all those off target passes in just 60 minutes of work is indeed a NFL gambling rarity. But it does happen, at least it did happen, last week against the god awful Cleveland Browns of all teams.

Brees is going to have to get his vision checked and his arm on target in the Week 8 action as his 4-2 Saints play host to a surging 5-1 Pittsburgh Steelers team boasting #1 defense in the league (13.7 ppg). This unit will make the Browns defense look like the Girl Scouts and will capitalize on even the smallest Brees mistake. Read more…

The Miami Dolphins are team that is either very good or very bad and with a 2-2 record this week’s NFL betting odds matchup with the Green Bay Packers (3-2) will be a good litmus test to see exactly which side of good this team falls on.

No team in the NFL betting action has had as turbulent of an offseason as the Pittsburgh Steelers. Well, maybe that’s not true. The Oakland Raiders’ football betting offseason has been the expected circus that it usually is but for the most stable of NFL betting franchises this year’s offseason has been cataclysmic for the 6-time Super Bowl betting champions.

The event that rocked this franchise as well as most of football betting was QB Ben Roethlisberger’s questionable behavior in a college bar in rural Georgia. His poor judgment earned the wrath of NFL Commissioner/God, Roger Goddell and earned him a 4-6 game suspension.
