The pickings don\u2019t look very easy in week for of NFL betting, so here\u2019s a bonus four-game set to choose from in case yesterday\u2019s picks didn\u2019t float your boat. <\/p>\n

\nNFL betting favorite: Texans 4<\/p>\n
The Pittsburgh Steelers have notoriously suffered from Super Bowl hangovers in the past. They didn\u2019t win it all last year but they made it there, so the effects of a long 2010 season could loom just as large in 2011. So far, Pittsburgh does in fact look sluggish. Big Ben Roethlisberger flopped against Baltimore in Week 1. The Steelers barely got by an awful Colts team in Week 3.<\/p>\n
The Ravens are the only above-average offense Pittsburgh has faced so far this season and they turned the Iron Curtain into Swiss cheese. Houston\u2019s elite offense can stretch the field on Pittsburgh\u2019s beatable secondary and Arian Foster, returning from injury, may actually flourish against a Steeler front seven that isn\u2019t stopping the run the way it did last season.<\/p>\n
Pick: Texans -4<\/p>\n

\nNFL betting favorite: Giants -1<\/p>\n
Even though it\u2019s a road affair, I like the Giants\u2019 chances in Week 4. Eli Manning was supposed to crap the bed against an aggressive Eagles defense last week; naturally, he threw four touchdown passes with no interceptions. There may not be a weaker pass \u201cD\u201d in the NFL than Arizona\u2019s, so Manning should carve them up. Kevin Kolb and the Cards may move the ball on the Giants\u2019 injury-prone defense as well, so this game shouldn\u2019t be a blowout. I expect plenty of points and a narrow road win for the Giants.<\/p>\n
Pick: Giants -1<\/p>\n

\nNFL betting favorite: Falcons -4.5<\/p>\n
I\u2019m glad the oddsmakers didn\u2019t get carried away with Atlanta\u2019s spread this week. Seattle is a tough place for even the best of teams to play, so I would\u2019ve been nervous if the Falcons were favored by a touchdown. [soliloquy id=”82219″]<\/p>\n
A 4.5-point spread, though, seems nice and manageable. Seattle only managed 13 points at home against a horrible Arizona defense last week, so it could struggle against an average Atlanta unit. Also, Matt Ryan is due for a monster game under center. The Seattle corners have struggled against elite wideouts; I expect Roddy White and Julio Jones to abuse them on Sunday.<\/p>\n
Pick: Falcons -4.5<\/p>\n

\nNFL betting favorite: Patriots -4<\/p>\n
Do you get the weird feeling that this might be the game of the week? The Raiders\u2019 offensive line has been outstanding so far. It\u2019s opened up holes for the tremendously talented Darren McFadden, who looks like the best running back in football right now. It\u2019s also protected quarterback Jason Campbell enough for him to at least play a decent caretaker role. So Oakland might move the ball on a struggling New England defense.<\/p>\n
But, naturally, the Pats should do plenty of damage, too. The Raiders \u201cD\u201d impressed last week but Buffalo lit them up in Week 2. Tom Brady threw four interceptions last week. Do you really want to bet on him to have two bad weeks in a row, especially when he still posted big numbers in his \u201cbad\u201d game? Brady will solve Oakland and lead New England to a road win.<\/p>\n
Pick: Patriots -4<\/p>\n
