There could be a lot of interesting stories which are going to have an impact at Week 2 NFL betting lines.  But the most popular is Tom Brady injury.  Placing the New England Patriots as underdogs this NFL week 2 against Favre’s Jets. That’s the first time they’ve been an underdog in over a year, and it’s the perfect way to kick off the NFL Week 2 Betting. 

Pittsburgh at Cleveland betting preview

The Browns got off to a rough start last week, but granted they were playing the Cowboys, but Derek Anderson should have had some better numbers than the dismal 46% completion rate.  The play for NFL Week 2  is Pittsburgh -6.5, if it goes up like I’m sure it will before the end of the week then consider the Browns +7.5, but its not there yet.

Indianapolis Colts -2.5  43.5
Minnesota Vikings

On NFL Week2 betting, the play, Minnesota plus the points and all the Indy bettors last week will be looking to recoup, but the Minnesota bettors will out weigh them.  So take the Vikings.

On Monday Night game betting analysis.

Philadelphia Eagles
Dallas Cowboys -6.5  47

Dallas at -6.5 anything less than 7 at home for superbowl contenders is usually a good thing, I wouldn’t be surprised if Philly kept it close, but Dallas should be able to cover that spread easily.

One of the biggest misconceptions about professional gamblers is that they are all top-notch handicappers. They aren’t. But they do one thing far better than the average bettor. They know how to shop for lines.
Getting the best available nfl betting lines can often make the difference between a winning season and a losing one. Those who bet for a living are quick to acknowledge that fact. If you want to see the value in shopping for lines, look no farther than the NFL futures market for odds to win the 2009 Super Bowl.

A number of smart bettors will typically avoid placing futures bets, as the house typically has an estimated 30- to 50-percent advantage over bettors. But for those willing to shop for the best odds, those percentages can be drastically reduced.

What we’ll do here is look at the odds to win the 2009 Super Bowl from four we–known sportsbooks - Bodog, Intertops and Sportsbook.com.
