I'll take the packers @ 11/2 for the AFC @ $20

patriots 2/1 + packers 11/2 for AFC/NFC double @ $10 to return 195.00
Raiders 9/1 + packers 11/2 AFC/NFC double @ $5 to return 325.00

Packers will start well and fade .. so i would also look to bet :

Suberbowl winners - Packers @ 11/1 .. to lay off at later date
Superbowl winners - Raiders @ 18/1 .. hope they fulfill promise of last year ... possible lay off .. but may let it ride ...


Week One - Acca :

Patriots @ 3/13
Raiders @ 5/4
Packers @ 11/17
Steelers @ 5/19

Bet $20 to return 115.23 ... tough first week games for raiders and packers .. but odds for superbowl will drop if they manage to pull off a win ...
 
Great start for the Pats first game :whistle::whistle: @pete

apart from the past couple of years the pats have been known to start slowly ... i was hoping that would push the superbowl price out to around 13/2 .. but it didnt seem to change the odds too much ... i think they start shaky and get strong after the first three or four games .. always been a pattern in the past .. if I can get 13/2 for the Superbowl win after three or four games .. as long as no major injuries ... i'll be taking that price.
 
looks like the patriots were the only team to let down my acca .... on the plus side, the two teams I've taken against the patriots for the Superbowl started off ok ...
Sorry NigelRG NigelRG .. looks like my Packers beat your Seahawks, and my Raiders beat your Titans ... both the Monday games look to be good matchups, will be interesting to watch.
:)
 
week two bets ..

Patriots -8.5 @ 2.62 - $25 win
$15 double on the above plus Ravens @ 1.32
 
Terrific call pete pete I thought Brady had 2 different games, brilliant first quarter and ups and downs for the rest with 2 weird interceptions.

3 of my 4 selections won this week with seattle playing the late slot (too late for me).

Yep, I thought they would come back strong, fancied them to win by 10 pts or more after the way the saints played last week.
I like the raiders today.. but they were 14 point favorites ... too much juice there to play them today.
Packers have an interesting game tomorrow night .. i think they squeak out a win ... am considering playing them -2.5pts @ 2.75 ...

Tampa spanked the Bears, not seen any of that game yet ... my wife is originally from Chicago .. so most of her friends are Bears fans .. and Tennessee is my "local" team.
I live in Tennessee between Knoxville and Chattanooga in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains. I'd like to see them do well, they have always been a "nearly" team for me ... more on the fringe than having a genuine shot at much, but it looks like they had a great game today ... i'd be ok with them having a good run this year.

For tonight's games, i'd like to see the Broncos turn over the Cowboys and @ 2.26 its not a bad bet ... , and Seattle should blow out the 49'ers .. but the spread at 14.5 points is crazy .. so I cant play that game with any kind of confidence.

Lets hope we both get a decent profit from the games this year :)
 
... going to go ahead and bet $20 on Packers -2.5 @ 2.75 .. will be a tough game, but they have to win these games if they have any kind of plans for this year. Lets see what they are made of.
 
halftime ... packers playing dire football ... time for bed. I don't think they come back from this .. and to me, their season does not look good unless something changes.
 
Loads of good games to go at tomorrow ..
I'm playing for fun :

Patriots -10.5pts @ 1.62
Seattle @ 2.28
Denver @ 1.65
Pittsburgh -6.5 @ 1.78
Green Bay -6.5 @ 1.80
Oakland -2.5 @ 1.80

6 * five folds @ $5
$5 acca on all above to return 175.74

$35 total bet - if one loses I still double my money .. if they all win, i'm taking the wife for a night out :)
 
I think it's too early in the season to know who's improving and who's sliding, the Pats only scraped a last minute win and the Hawks didn't impress, I just hope its a weak division.

GL with the Raiders.
