NFL Week 1 Preview: Vikings vs. Browns

Minnesota Vikings at Cleveland Browns

It seems like the “Man-genius” is going to keep his opponents guessing this season. Cleveland Browns head coach Eric Mangini has yet to publicly name a starting quarterback – serving the Minnesota Vikings some psychological warfare heading into this Sunday’s season opener.

Cleveland, which is listed as a 4-point home underdog, will give the nod to either Brady Quinn or Derek Anderson. Mangini has already made his decision on the starter but has yet to tell his players or the media about his choice.

NFL Week 1 Preview: Bears vs. Packers

Chicago Bears at Green Bay Packers

Two of the NFL’s brightest young stars go head to head when the Chicago Bears travel to Lambeau Field to face the Green Bay Packers on Sunday Night Football.

Oddsmakers have tagged the Packers as 3.5-point favorites, while the total is posted at 46.5.

Gunslinging quarterbacks Aaron Rodgers and Jay Cutler headline this clash between long-time NFC North rivals. The teams split their two meetings last season – Rodgers’ first year as the Packers’ starter – with Green Bay covering the spread in both games.

Sports Handicapping Thoughts – Bob Wingerter

WHO ARE THEY?

Each football season a group of mysterious gentleman leap into the sports spotlight with steam and other nonsense. The speculating public, which is essentially composed of followers, clings to every word they speak, complying and following their every lead. You know the fellows. They are referred to with reverential phrases as: “Who are THEY taking?” or “Who do THEY like?”

This time, it counts.

Not that we can’t enjoy spending the money we’ve already made off the NFL preseason. But the people around the water cooler probably weren’t all that keen about starting their office pool until this week – the start of the 2009 regular season.

It is what it is. Those of us who have been working the preseason will have the jump on the rest of the market when the inevitable injuries happen and those anonymous reserve players are pressed into service.

NFL Week 1 Matchups – Titans, Steelers get the regular season underway

LOOKING FOR THE BEST NFL CAPPERS ONLINE? —–>

The highlight of NFL Week 1 betting could come on Thursday, when the defending Super Bowl champions from Pittsburgh will welcome Tennessee to Heinz Field, which hasn’t been kind to the Titans in recent years.

Titans vs Steelers odds – Thursday, September 10, 8:30 PM ET – Steelers -6

The Titans settled on Kerry Collins over Vince Young at quarterback, but it’ll be interesting to see how long that arrangement lasts. Whoever the pivot is, they’ll have LenDale White and Chris Johnson in the backfield again, but there isn’t much at receiver.
