    Grumpy NFL plays

    Well, I have NEVER placed a bet on an NFL game in my life. I assume most of you know me from my MLB, NBA or WC threads, but I thought I might as well give our #1 sport a shot, so tail with cautious for now, until we see how I do.

    GL everyone and go Texans!

    May I ask why Dallas? I am on the Raiders as this is the only game I will make a play with the Raiders this pre-season.

    The entire forum played against the Dallas the first game which was bizzare to me, and now it would be even more bizzre. Dallas are a strong team pre-season or not. With that, the Raiders SUCK.
    But it's my first time betting Football, ever, so what do I know.

    The pre-season is a different animal compared to the regular season. Dallas is hostirically not interested in the pre-season. Oakland has had great success in the first game of the pre-season not losing since 2005. I was on Dallas in their first game so not everyone was on Cincy!

    Those are things I need to dig into deeper, I will get a lot better when the season goes along. Will check out your thread.
    Good call on that.

    Why don't you try your hand at college football? IMO it's easier to pick the games because the 'kids' go all out to win every week. You know what to expect from them. Just for an example Alabama will be Alabama all season. In the pro's a great team can lose to a poor team any week just like in pro basketball and pro baseball. It's just a job to them and they're in it mostly for the money. Also college is during the week and on the weekend. I find college is a lot more consistent to bet on then the pro's. Just a suggestion mate.
