Winning in Week 3 a daunting task for NFL bettors<\/h2>\n

Week 3 of the National Football League season is a tough one for Football Betting fans, with a number of close matchups and lots of line movement.<\/p>\n

But a few games standout, including the Tennessee Titans’ trip to New York City on Sunday, where they’ll face the Jets (1 pm ET, CBS).<\/p>\n

New York is a 2.5-point favorite in NFL Betting<\/a> Lines at betED.com.<\/p>\n

What makes this tilt noteworthy is that the once-mighty Titans are winless in 2009, and the Jets are, somewhat surprisingly, unbeaten.<\/p>\n

The Titans will also be looking for payback, as they got thumped 34-13 by the Jets as 5.5-point home favorites last season.<\/p>\n

Last week, the Titans were upset by the Houston Texans 34-31. The Titans had been a 7-point favorite. The score went over the over\/under total of 40.5.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Jets beat the New England Patriots 16-9 as a 3.5-point underdog in Week 2. The score fell under the total of 45.<\/p>\n

Tennessee is 0-2 SU and 1-1 ATS while New York is 2-0 SU and 2-0 ATS.<\/p>\n

Another matchup that stands out is the San Francisco 49ers visiting Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings in a clash of unbeaten teams.<\/p>\n

The Vikings are a near-perfect 4-1 SU and 5-0 ATS the last five teams they’ve hosted the 49ers. The teams haven’t squared off since Dec. 9, 2007, when the Vikings had little trouble downing the 49ers 27-7 as 8.5-point road favorites. The score in that game went under the total of 39.<\/p>\n

In their last game, the 49ers beat division rival Seattle Seahawks 23-10 as a 1-point home favorite in Week 2, while the Vikings defeated division rival Detroit Lions 27-13 as a 10-point favorite in Week 2.<\/p>\n

San Francisco is 2-0 SU and ATS and Minnesota is also 2-0 SU and ATS.<\/p>\n

And another game of note is the Chicago Bears taking on the Seattle Seahawks at Qwest Field.
\nThe Bears and Seahawks play each other very evenly, as Seattle has a slight 3-2 SU edge over the past five while Chicago has a 3-2 ATS edge over that span.<\/p>\n

The teams last met in the NFL Playoffs on Jan. 14, 2007, when Seattle won 30-23 as 5.5-point home favorites.
\nChicago is 1-1 SU and 1-1 ATS and Chicago is also 1-1 SU and 1-1 ATS.<\/p>\n
