Let me start off by saying that I feel the NFL preseason is a great opportunity to start and build a nice bankroll for the upcoming regular season. Many handicappers have the opinion that the preseason games should be left alone and not bet on. I feel just the opposite. If you do your homework the preseason games offer the betting public a tremendous chance to make a ton of money.  In the 2007 NFL preseason at 10starpicks my preseason selections went a documented 12-3 hitting at a solid 80%. All these plays were found in my 2007 preseason report I released.

In the preseason, many head coaches have a track record of wanting to win and some just don’t care and are just preparing for the regular season. You can find many games this preseason where you can get a definite edge. Below I have put together a list of all 32 teams with a breakdown of things to look for this preseason that will give you that winning advantage.

A very important thing to remember for this upcoming preseason is that there will be 4 new head coaches this season, so previous preseason trends for these teams are no longer valid. However I have found some nice hidden trends that can still show us a profit with these teams.

Here are the 4 teams with new head coaches for the upcoming season:

Atlanta - Mike Smith

Baltimore - John Harbaugh

Miami - Tony Sparano

Washington – Jim Zorn

OK so here are this year’s highly rated preseason money making trends for each NFC East team.

NFC East

Dallas – In his first year as the Cowboys head coach Wade Phillips surprisingly played a wide open style in the preseason with Dallas falling 1 point shy of having all their 4 games go over the total. Watch the Cowboys early this preseason to see if this trend continues again this year especially with Romo and Johnson leading the way.  As per the spread last year the Cowboys covered both games at home, while losing both games on the road. Something to keep an eye out for this upcoming preseason.

Probable preseason quarterback rotations: Tony Romo, Brad Johnson, Richard Bartel

New York Giants – The Giants are coming off of a preseason which saw them lose 3 of their 4 games back on 07. Now with a Super Bowl win behind them and head coach Tom Coughlin no longer worrying sweating his job. I look for a rather lackluster preseason from the men in blue.

Probable preseason quarterback rotations: Eli Manning, Anthony Wright, David Carr, Andre Woodson

Philadelphia – Andy Reid and the Eagles show no trends that we can take advantage of going 12-13 in the preseason over the last six years. However we still can make some money on the Eagles as Reid doesn’t go all out in the first preseason game of the year going a perfect 0-4 in their opener. 

Probable preseason quarterback rotations: Donovan McNabb, AJ Feeley, Kelvin Kolb

Washington – With new head coach Jim Zorn retaining 10 of Joe Gibbs coaching staff can’t see much improvement in the preseason from a Redskins squad that has gone 3-8 against the spread over the past 3 years. Something to really watch for is that Washington has lost their last preseason game the last 3 years. Also have to add in here is with Zorn bringing in his wide open version of the West Coast offense watch for some high scoring games from the Redskins this preseason.

Probable preseason quarterback rotations:  Jason Campbell, Todd Collins, Colt Brennan
