The New Colts Look Good

     Well the Indianapolis Colts looked good last night even though they lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers 24 to 26. The Colts just about replaced the entire team and most of their front office this year, and even with a good first round draft pick for their new Quarterback a lot of people expect them to have a iffy year.

      Andrew Luck the first round draft pick for Quarterback to replace Peyton Manning looked good on Sunday he only played the first half and he did make a Rookie mistake. He threw an easy interception, but he did not let it rattle him as he keep his cool and played well leading the Colts to 2 Touchdowns and a Field Goal.

      Well the Colts did look good , but the Steelers won with some good plays and very good clock management in the fourth quarter. The Steelers played well and showed that they can grind down the clock when they need to, strong play is great but clock management can win more games. The Steelers last drive was well executed and ground down the clock from 5:37 to only 23 seconds left, they were only able to get a Field Goal but that was all they need to win the game.

      Tonight the Philadelphia Eagles take on the New England Patriots in New England, the Line is the Eagles +1 -110 and the Patriots -1 -100 or even, and the Over/Under 42 -105. Most people give the Patriots a slight edge, partially because they are at home, and home field advantage can be very important.

Cowboys Won by a hair.

The Line was Dallas Cowboys +1 -110 and the Oakland Raiders -1 -110 and the Over/Under 35½ -110. So the Dallas cowboys beat the spread since they were +1 and the Under won as the total score was less than 35½..

      Well the first week of NFL Preseason is over and I hope that your betting made you some money this week. Now is the time to start getting ready for next week, you should take a look at the teams that won and the ones that lost and get ready to place your bets for next week.

Final Look at the Olympics

                      USA    46 Gold   29 Silver   29 Bronze   Total 104

                     China    38 Gold   27 Silver   23 Bronze   Total 88

           Great Britain   29 Gold   17 Silver   19 Bronze   Total 65

      The Summer Olympics are over for the next four years, there were some interesting outcomes in some of the events. The USA did come out on top in the final medal count and I hope you did well in your wagering, well back to NFL Preseason football.

      Well the first week of NFL Preseason Football comes to an end tonight with the game between the Dallas Cowboys +1 -110 and the Oakland Raiders -1 -110 and the Over/Under 35½ -110. A lot of people are betting on the Oakland Raiders to win by 2 or more points, myself I think that the Dallas Cowboys will win. I do agree with most people that it will be a close game.

      This week we have seen several games end very close with just 1 or 2 points difference and some end with 7 to 10 points difference and a couple of runaways by around 30 points. Which once again shows you what I was talking about that Preseason is very unpredictable. Well hope you made some money this week and spread your bets around.

The First Day of Preseason Play

      Well today is the opening games of the NFL Preseason and there are 6 games scheduled tonight the first one starting at 7pm EST. Hope you have your teams picked out and are ready for some Football action. While watching the Preseason be sure to take notes on the new players and how well they slot into the team play.

      The Match ups tonight are the Washington Redskins -2 -110 against the Buffalo Bills +2 -110 and the Over/Under 34½ -110 at 7pm EST, the Baltimore Ravens +1 -110 against the Atlanta Falcons -1 -110 and the Over/Under 34 -110 at 7:30pm EST, the New Orleans Saints +3½ -110 against the New England Patriots -3½ -110 and the Over/Under 37 -110 at 7:30pm EST, the Pittsburgh Steelers +1 -110 against the Philadelphia Eagles -1 -110 and the Over/Under 35 -110 at 7:30pm, the Green Bay Packers +1 -110 against the San Diego Chargers -1 -110 and the Over/Under 38 -110 at 8pm EST, and finally the Denver Broncos +3 -125 against the Chicago Bears -3 +105 and the Over/Under 34½ -110 at 8:30pm EST.

      Some interesting match ups tonight hope you have planed your betting strategy out well, remembering that this is Preseason and not to over bet the games. Most professional gamblers don't bet on preseason games very much, they wait for the regular season to get started and the teams rosters to be finalized. So if you are betting the Preseason games remember moderation is called for during the Preseason, just bet enough for you to enjoy the extra thrill that comes with having some money on the game.

      Myself I am just making a few small fun bets with friends for the Preseason games and saving most of my money for the NFL Regular season starting Wednesday September 5^th. Well good luck on your Preseason bets and hope you start the season off on a winning note.

How about the Rookies?

      Well we've talked about the “Star” players but the guys to really watch out for are the Rookies. Every year brings new and exciting players to the game, and the Rookies are the future of the game, every “Star” player started off as a Rookie once upon a time.

      A lot of the Rookies are really hyped hard before the draft and a lot is expected of them. Every year you hear a lot about the future of the “Team” and how the new blood is going to change the team for the better. But realistically most Rookies are not the major force that they are capable of until a couple of seasons after they sign up.

      Now of course this is not always true, some Rookies do come into the game their first season hitting hard. Sadly sometimes this is not a good thing, even if they do great for the season, rushing them into the front lines without the time to get the experience they need, can cause them to burn out as quickly as they began. History is full of Rookies who were “The Next Great Hope” and they either were great for a few seasons and then just disappeared. Or they started great and then slid into the second string for a few years never to return to the headlines again.

      This usually depends on the coach, if he can take the time to bring the Rookie along slowly over the season, then they might become the next great “Star” player. Some of the greatest players did not become the “Star” player for several seasons, but became the long term Super Stars they are because the coaches trained them well, and brought them along the right way.

      So be sure that you check out this year's crop of Rookies and lets try to figure out who the next Star player is going to be, because if you make the right choice then your Bankroll will grow with leaps and bounds.

Checking Back on the Olympics.

      Well the Olympics are well underway and the Medal count for the top three are:

                           China    31 Gold   19 Silver    14 Bronze   Total 64

                            USA    28 Gold   14 Silver    19 Bronze    Total 61

                Great Britain    18 Gold    11 Silver    11 Bronze    Total 40

      It is about half way through the Olympics and we will check back on the Medal count towards the end of the Olympics on August 12^th.

      China and USA are very close to each other in the Medal Count and it looks like it could be close this year. Well we still have a whole week of events to go, so keep watching, and don't forget to place your bets.

       Now looking back on the Preseason Game from this weekend the final score was Arizona Cardinals 10 points and New Orleans Saints 17 points and the Total was 27 points. So I was right about them Saints, as you remember the Line was Arizona Cardinals +2½ -110 and New Orleans Saints -2½ -110 and the Over/Under 36½ -110. Since the New Orleans Saints won by 7 points they beat the Spread of -2½ points by 4½ points so if you bet on them to win, you won. Now the Over/Under was 36½ and the total in the game was 27 points so if you bet the Under you won.

       I felt that the Saints had the edge because they were at home and this time I was right but as I have told you with the Preseason games you have to be careful because you never know how the teams are going to play and which players they are going to play.

      Well the regular Preseason starts this Thursday, so hope you are ready, good luck with your bets hope you pick the right teams. The first game of the regular season is on Wednesday September 5^th between the Dallas Cowboys and the New York Giants in New York. Well hope you enjoy the rest of the Olympics.

Were did the Running Game Go?

      Yesterday we talked about the fact that Teams need to be well rounded to win regularly. On that thought there are still some really great “Star” players out there this year and it looks like there could be some real competition for the Championships this year. It also looks as if it will be another year of huge aerial attacks.

      We have seen over the last decade a real shift from the great Running Backs to more of a focus on the passing game. You just don't see as many great Running Backs in the game as you usted to. Where are the Earl Campbell's, the Tony Dorsett's and the Jim Brown's that we used to see out there on the field. We used to see some really great Running Games now it seems to me that most teams running game is just to give the Receivers a rest or to make 3^rd down conversions.

      Most teams today only use the threat of the “Run” to throw off the defense, the really good runners that are out there today are mostly on the Special Team Squads for Kickoff and Punt returns, you just don't see as many long runs from the “Snap” as you used to. Now don't get me wrong I like the long pass just as much as anyone else, but it is nice to have that anticipation that on any Snap you could see a great Broken Field Run.

      Earl Campbell recently said that today’s Running Backs “look like they're average” and that it is a Quarterbacks game today. I think he is right you just don't see the strong Running Backs that you could count on to grind down the clock and make at least 3 to 4 yards every time they laid hands on the ball, the era of the Running Back is over.

      Well Taking a quick look at tomorrows game the Line has moved again, it is now - Arizona Cardinals +2½ -110 and New Orleans Saints -2½ -110 and the Over/Under 36½ -110. Now you can win your wager by just a Field Goal, now that the Line is only 2½ points and not 3 points. Well good luck with the Game Tomorrows and hope you Win Big.

How Important are “Star” Players When Wagering?

     Well the training camps are well under way and reading the reports is a good way to start your research for the football season. Now you don't have to read every report just keep an eye on the highlights and watch how the new players interact with the old players.

      With the preseason starting this next week every new player is trying their hardest because in just a month or less the lineup of each team will be finalized, so this is their shot at getting on the team. Players that are not the star players but the support players are just as important, if not more so, as the star players that get all the press.

      It does not matter how great your Quarterback is if he does not have the protection in the pocket to get the throws off. It also does not matter how great your Running Back or Wide Receiver is if they don't have the Blockers to get them through the line to begin with. What too many people forget is that it takes a complete football team to win and not just one or two “Star” players.

      History is full of examples of great players who never reached their full potential and their teams never reach the Superbowl because their teams could not give them the support they needed. So when you are doing your research don't just look at the star players, you need to find out if they have the support they need.

      For example if the best Pass Receiver in the League is on a team that has no other good Pass Receivers then every team in the League is going to cover him every time he is on the field. For a great Receiver to make the big plays there must be several other good Receivers on the same team so that the coverage will have to spread out. Same goes for a Running Back if he does not have the blockers and other threats for the defense to watch out for, then the defense will be all over him every time he takes the field and he will never be able to make the big plays he should.

      So remember in your research that even the greatest player needs a good team to support him and that no one player alone can win a game. It should also be noted that if the entire team depends too heavily on one or two players, then they play so much that the chances of them getting injured increases greatly. So you should really watch which team is the most well rounded team and not necessarily which team has the biggest Star Players when your placing your bets.

Checking back up on the Olympics?

      Well the Olympics are well underway and the Medal count for the top three are:

                             China   18 Gold  10 Silver    4 Bronze    Total 32

                             USA    14 Gold    8 Silver    9 Bronze    Total 31

           Republic of Korea    7 Gold    2 Silver    4 Bronze    Total 13

      It is about half way through the Olympics and we will check back on the Medal count towards the end of the Olympics.

      Well that’s how the Olympics are going so far and we still have till August 12^th till the final results, this next week will have both the Olympics and the Preseason American Football going on so it will be a busy week for sports. We have the Hall of Fame game on Sunday August 5^th and then 6 games on Thursday August 9^th, 6 games on Friday August 10^th, 2 on Saturday August 11^th, 1 on Sunday August 12^th and finally 1 on Monday August 13^th to finish off the first week of Preseason Football.

      There are some great match ups this next week and it should be a lot of fun to watch, but as I have said before don't go overboard with your betting on Preseason football. It's OK to bet a little to make watching the games more exciting but seeing as this is Preseason don't bet to heavily on the games. Remember that Preseason is when the Coaches try out new players and since the Preseason games don't count for the Championships some of the regular players that already have a place on the team don't really give it a 100%. Also because of the chance of injures some of the star players don't play much in Preseason games.

      So enjoy the rest of the Olympics this year and get ready for some Football NFL style, the regular season starts on Wednesday September 5^th with the Dallas Cowboys playing against the New York Giants in New York, that should be an interesting match up, Go Cowboys.
