Here's part of a post of mine from a few days back. My contribution to this thread...

One of the biggest keys to preseason betting in the NFL is understanding where coaches and teams need improvement. For example: if you find a team A, who had a poor running game last year playing team B with a top run defense, you'll often find team A running well during that preseason matchup as team B will focus less on their strong points and team A will be focusing to improve.
Totals and point spreads can both be exploited to a certain extent if you research the games and correctly apply the information. Few will argue that preseason is a very different animal than regular season.
Unfortunately this becomes very subjective and it is difficult to make your own preseason line to compare to the marketplace to determine if you have a bet, as you should during the regular season.
It's a game of numbers and preseason usually requires a different set of numbers used in a different ways.
Good luck, whatever your methodology.
I'd like to add that often times, and it's no secret, a big part of NFL handicapping involves motivations. In preseason it is no different. For example, some coaches and teams show a clear bias towards wanting to win the game, some coaches and teams clearly do not. When the motivation to win is not a major factor, we must turn to other motivations. This, I might add, is where many a bettor has stumbled, before they can even address the marketplace.
Good Luck leet

The two markets you've mentioned are not only legitimate but are, quite frankly, beatable.
Although limits can be an issue.

It's well known that the smallest markets are more profitable than the others, so maybe it's the other way?

I'd like to point out that when I say the market is legitimate, that it is not meant to be a commentary on whether or not the sports themselves are fixed, that's a different discussion altogether; rather, it is a commentary on the market itself.

this is why you don't bet pre-season, it just ins't smart, teams play completely different from year to year in preseason, i'm just waiting for the 27th when football that actually counts begins

I also avoid betting preseason.
But sometimes there are advantages in pre season.
