If you are going to bet on Sports you should take a look at the lineup and determine your winners before Sunday's games. Here are some matchups to get you bets put down. I also provided a link to betting against the Spread and a link to Espn's NFL power rankings.

 

The first big matchup of NFL week 8 play has the Houston Texans Arian Foster against Indianapolis Colts Gary Brackett. Brackett linebacker for the Colts defense is coming back from injury, but returning to full health. He looks to stop Texans running back Foster who rushed for 231 yards in their last meeting. Keep in mind that Houston has never beaten Indianapolis in their franchise history. Look for Peyton Manning to exploit rookie corner Kareem Jackson, on the other hand this game depends on Jackson's ability to shut down Manning in the secondary. Its going to be an exciting Monday Night.

 

The New York Jets are favored by 6 points against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. This matchup features Aaron Rodgers against Antonio Cromartie. The height of Cromartie makes him difficult to be thrown over. Green Bay has not won a game against the Jets on the road in their NFL history. Something tells me that Aaron Rodgers has not been playing up to par, or at least not as well as he could. He has given up more interceptions this season already, than all of last season, it could have a little to do with injured tight end Jermichael Finley and running back Ryan Grant. Also look for a battle between linebackers desmond Bishop and AJ Hawk of Green Bay to take on LaDainian Tomlinson.

 

Our Last big matchup puts the number one ranked Pittsburgh Steelers with a rejuvenated Ben Roethlisburger against a struggling New Orleans Saints. NFL's website says that the key to New Orleans winning will be Gregg Williams the defensive Coordinators play calls. Can the defense put enough pressure on Roethlisburger for him to make inaccurate passes and mistakes? Also watch to see how Dick LeBeau the Steelers defensive coordinator pressures Drew Brees who is coming off one of his worst performances.

 

Remember when placing your bets that you should gather as much info as possible, and don't bet with emotion, in other words don't always bet the most number of units on your favorite team!
