I already have $150 on Denver -3

What you got dog!!!

[presley177]

Steelers seem like an easy bet. Especially since the Dolphins will probably have Harrington as the QB for the first game. Broncos -3 looks solid as well

[Illusion]

I think it's alittle to early for placing bets on week one. I'll wait until I see a few preseason games before I place my bets.

I'm with Illusion. Placing a bet now is essentially a "futures" wager, with money being tied up for months. Plus, I want to put the preseason under a microscope and really get nitty gritty before I submit my final decision on these games. Still, I'll be using these lines as a critical part of my analysis going forward into the preseason. A lot can happen in the months to come. I'll probably wait until at least a couple weeks before week 1 before submitting any picks. There's a lot of opportunity for major injuries during the preseason.

Wouldnt it suck to bet on the Steelers today and in week 2 of the Preseason Big Ben gets a season ending injury? There goes your bet, more and likely.

Just cant do anything with preseason sandwich in between.

[clonecat]

Lines look familiar to many weeks last year, a ton of lines set at 3

[bigboydan]

how can anyone bet on a game roughly 4 months before the season starts.

the NFL draft is this weekend. besides, who knows whats going to happen between now gameday.
