Sweet Action: NFL Week 8

Kevin, the host of the D.C. Sports Guys, will start the NFL season with $100 of his own money. The objective is simple: make as much as possible betting on NFL games. No funds can be added during the season. He will either lose it all or be smoking a victory cigar on February 7, 2010. 


Positive results are always good results.  Thats the motto at least after winning a whooping $5 in week 7. 

This week only $30 are being risked for $60 in winnings.  The lines out of Vegas are not very attractive with either big double digit or small 3 point or less spreads and little in between.

Check out the metrics for the entire season here: http://www.dcsportsguys.com/2009/09/sweet-action-kevins-nfl-20092010.html

Team	Reason and Action
New York Giants	The Giants will get their bounce back game a week later then previously advertised.  The Eagles are coming off a bad loss to Oakland and a unimpressive win against the Redskins.  McNabb won't be able to afford to throw the ball at receivers feet all day against New York. Action: Giants -1.5 and Teased
Arizona Cardinals	The Cardinals showed the Seattle game was no fluke by going into the Meadowlands and winning.  Both offense and defense are playing better each week.  The opposite could be said for Carolina.   Action: Cardinals -10.5 teased to -3.5
New Orleans Saints	Until proven otherwise New Orleans may be the best team in the NFL.  Their under-rated defense will have similar success as Dallas did in containing Atlanta's offense. Action: Saints -11 teased to -4
Indianapolis Colts	The struggling 49ers will not see a boost from Alex Smith when they face Indianapolis this week.  The Colts should have no problem moving the ball against the slow San Francisco secondary. Action: Colts -13.5 teased to -6.5
Dallas Cowboys	Much like a year ago Seattle's injuries are starting to pile up.  With 3 Seahawk tackles out DeMarcus Ware will be licking his chops in his pursuit of a still injured Matt Hasselbeck. Action: Cowboys -10 teased to -3
Denver Broncos	The biggest surprise at 6-0 Denver has shown they can play great defense, allowing only 11 points a game, and control the ball on offense, Kyle Orton has a passer rating of 100.1.  The Ravens defense is not what it used to be and their receivers have dropped key passes in recent weeks. Action: Broncos +3.5 teased to +10.5 and on the Money Line (+155)
