NFL Week 1 Totals
With the NFL season only a week away, many fans betting on the NFL are trying to find the best over / under wagers for the week one. For the fan NFL betting on the totals in week one, here are three games you should expect to see go over the total.
- Indianapolis Colts vs. Houston Texans O/U 46.5 – In a battle of two of the league’s most premiere offenses, the total for the game is 46.5 points. Given how strong of a passer both Peyton Manning and Matt Schaub are, it should go without question that the total will go over. Going into the game, Indianapolis is the favorite because of how well they fared last season. Nevertheless, although the majority of sportsbooks suggest that if the game goes over 46.5 points, the majority of the points will be towards the Colts, do not be surprised if both teams end up going over the total.
- Arizona Cardinals vs. St. Louis Rams O/U 38.5 – The majority of sportsbooks have these two divisional rivals going under the total. We disagree completely, as both Sam Bradford and Matt Leinart are both known as strong passing quarterbacks. Meaning to say, Larry Fitzgerald will be putting up a lot of mileage against the St. Louis secondary. Bradford on the contrary, will be relying on more than just one receiver as this new look Rams squad attempts to erase last season’s disaster with a high scoring victory.
- New England Patriots vs. Cincinnati Bengals O/ U 44 – In this game, fans around the league get to watch two of the biggest superstars collaborate to defeat the Patriots. Although the Patriots are the overall favorite in the game, the Bengals are favored to go over the 44 point total. Carson Palmer may have his hands full as he will be trying to spread out the offense amongst Cedric Benson on the run and Chad Ochocinco and Terrell Owens on the pass.
