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. 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previous preseason trends for these teams are no longer valid.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
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.
