Is the UFC 103 fight card not your thing? That’s OK – Dana White did go a bit overboard with events this week. Instead, you can focus your betting attention on a Week 2 parlay. This time, Brandon Stokley will not wreck us with a tip-catch. Promise.
Carolina Panthers (0-1 SU & ATS) at Atlanta Falcons (1-0 SU & ATS)
Sunday, September 20 – 1 PM ET
BetUS NFL betting lines: ATLANTA -6, Total 43
In the BetUS NFL football betting odds, the Falcons are listed as a six-point favorite, with a posted total of 43 points.
Here are some NFL football betting trends as they relate to this matchup:
The Dallas Cowboys will unveil their new billion dollar stadium on Sunday Night Football this week as the New York Giants come to visit. It’s an early statement game in the NFC East as both teams are considered contenders and maybe even more so now that the Philadelphia Eagles starting quarterback Donovan McNabb has a rib injury.
The Seattle Seahawks have been the team to beat in the NFC West throughout this decade and after an injury-ravaged season, they are ready to take their crown back.
The Arizona Cardinals may not wear the crown for very long, especially not if they continue to play like they did in Week 1. The San Francisco 49ers went into the University of Phoenix Stadium and upended the NFC Champs.
The Dallas Cowboys officially open the doors to their new billion-dollar stadium Sunday night. And no team would love to spoil that celebration more than the New York Giants. These two hated NFC East rivals collide in prime time with the Cowboys set as 3-point home favorites.
There will be extra pressure on Dallas to christen Cowboys Stadium with a win in the home opener. Owner Jerry Jones, who had to dig deep into his own pockets to finish his vision for the new stadium, even put an importance on winning games at home in the preseason. He is aiming to set the NFL’s regular season single-game attendance record and is expecting close to 105,000 fans for Sunday night’s contest.
Jay Cutler’s regular season debut with the Chicago Bears couldn’t have gone worse. The newly-acquired quarterback threw four interceptions, including one to snuff out the Bears’ fourth-quarter comeback, in a 21-15 loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night.
Now Cutler faces the most stout defense in the NFL this weekend. Chicago hosts the defending Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers at Soldier Field on Sunday afternoon. Bookmaker.com Oddsmakers have tagged the Bears as 3-point underdogs.
In New England, no one really knows what to make of Rex Ryan.
Since Vince Lombardi was carving up the league in the 1960s, the No. 1 rule was to never say anything that could give an opponent even an extra ounce of motivation on game day.
Ryan has basically blown up that business model, at least when it comes to the New England Patriots. The new Jets coach says he refuses to pay homage to Pats coach Bill Belichick, and furthermore he says he has a decent team in East Rutherford and plans to give NE a run for its money in the AFC East.
Week two in the NFL features a couple of great divisional NFL betting match-ups that might have some serious implications by the end of the season. The first is Seattle at San Francisco where the winner here will have the early edge for the NFC West title. Jerry Jones gets a chance to show off his new baby, Cowboys Stadium on Sunday night when the New York Giants come to town for a big NFC East showdown.
Here is a rundown of all the games and the current lines as supplied by betED.com Sportsbook & Casino.
Week two is always interesting as teams have that first game under their belt. Week one losers will be hungry for a win before the season gets away from them, and week one NFL winners will be on the prowl to improve their records to 2-0.
My pick for best game of the week is a tie between the Saints at the Eagles and the Giants at the Cowboys.
Despite a 10-3 record for week 1 so far, I am not a happy camper this morning, as two of the three games I dropped were big ‘question mark contests’ that I initially thought may go the other way from the outset.
Nevertheless, we produced some solid results that should help NFL betting enthusiasts to break the bank in a big way heading into Week 2.
Each week during the heart of the NFL season, and once or twice during the NFL Preseason, we’ll gather the troops around the roundtable and hash out the NFL Power rankings. We check out the stats, looks at the records, and, most importantly, we take a close, close look at the heart of each team. We encourage you to come back each week and see how the NFL Power Rankings have changed.

As always, NFL odds didn’t fully go the way we expected in week 1. That’s what makes the sport so great. Who knew the Texans wouldn’t score an offensive touchdown or that Denver would break Cincinnati’s heart with a recreation of the Immaculate Reception?
The question now is whether or not we should expect any shockers in tonight’s two Monday nighters, both of which are projected by betting services to be major blowouts.

Let it be known that Pierre Thomas is now to be referred to as the “PT Cruiser”. When a traffic jam forced me to miss the opening few rounds of a fantasy draft, and I got screwed with Pierre Thomas, it was an awful feeling. It’s the same feeling that the rental car that I got as a loaner after a car accident last year was a PT Cruiser. I wasn’t exited about at all, even though it was a fine car that got me where I wanted to go.
In the BetUS NFL betting odds, the Eagles are listed as a 1.5-point favorite, with a posted total of 43.5 points.
