How did Top NFL Teams Do Week 8

How did the top teams in the NFL do week 8?

The Pittsburgh Steelers who were previously ranked number one, fell to New Orleans in a show down that left the New Orleans Defense celebrating, and the Pittsburgh Steelers scratching their heads. The Steelers Defense could not stop Drew Brees' 305 yard game. Brees went 20/22 in the second half and carved through the Steelers defense. Look for the Steelers to drop in the nfl power rankings.

The New York Jets, a team ranked second also fell in week 8 to a Green Bay Packers team lead by Aaron Rodgers, who didn't produce but put Packers kicker Mason Crosby in great position to kick three field goals for the only 9 points of the game. This was an embarrassing home shut out for the Jets who had been playing well as of late, look for their rankings to slide.

On to the New England Patriots, who will likely secure their spot on top with a huge win 28-18 over the Minnesota Vikings. There was a huge momentum shift after an already injured (ankle sprain) Brett Favre was knocked out of the game after driving his team to the 3 yard line. Brady showed scrambling ability and long threat capabilities while Vikings back-up Tarvaris Jackson was thrown into the game in a turmoil of a two minute offense that proved too little too late for Minnesota.

The Baltimore Ravens and Atlanta falcons the last 2 teams rounding out the top 5 each had bye weeks.  Team 7 the Tennessee Titans lost to the San Diego Chargers. While teams 6 the Houston Texans and 8 the Indianapolis Colts square off tonight in a Monday Night Football show down. So after tonights game, of the tops 10 teams 4 lost. Tough to call these games lately.

The NBA Opening Leaders

The NBA season of betting is underway, so as you place your bets check in with the league your betting on. This blog will keep track of the big names in the big leagues. The Los Angeles Lakers take their first three games, beating the Houston Rockets, Phoenix Suns and Golden State Warriors in their first three match ups. New Orleans, Atlanta, and Portland join the Lakers as the only teams to remain undefeated. Let's look into their upcoming games.

Portland is coming off of a comeback win ruining the New York Knicks home opener. Most notably they have won their last two road games, behind leading scorer Brandon Roy. The Knicks out rebounded Portland the first time they have been out rebounded this season. Portland plays the Chicago Bulls who have opened the season 1-1 recently defeating the Detroit Pistons. Their only loss came at the hands of a powerful Oklahoma City Thunder. Brandon Roy seeks Portlands first 4-0 season in 11 years, but if he lets his team behind in the game early believe that Rose of the Chicago Bulls will not let them back in the game.

The Atlanta Hawks were described by Sixers coach Doug Collins "as Athletic a team as your going to find in the NBA" who is under the radar but one of the best teams in the league. They look to improve to 4-0 as they face the Clevland Caveliers Tuesday November 2nd at Clevland. This Cavs team, at 1-2 their only win coming against Boston in a big game, has lost to Toronto and Sacramento in consecutive losses. This will be a close match.

New Orleans led in a big way by Chris Paul, and David West, defeated the San Antonio Spurs, Denver Nuggets, and Milwuakee Bucks, all three games by 5 points or less. Their upcoming game against the Houston Rockets will be a good test for the two Hornets players. Chris Paul will have to keep up his 9.3 assists per game if he wants to defeat Luis Scola and Yoa Ming.

Can any of these teams beat the Lakers?

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!

Wayne Rooney Sinful Futbol God

When it comes to Football (soccer) none other than Wayne Rooney can be viewed as one of the best footballers of the game today. However his clean image of a great footballer was caught paying for sex, essentially cheating on his wife Colleen. His great reputation somewhat in disarray.
Its then no surprise that trouble on the pitch soon followed as Wayne Rooney submitted a transfer request to Manchester United. After much debate it is believed that Sir Alex Ferguson had much to do with his staying with the club. All the commotion saw non other than Rooney coming away with a 5 Year contract worth 200,000 to 280,000 pounds a week. Is he better than the team? How will this effect the play of the dominant Manchester United squad that hasn't been so dominant this season? Are you going to change your betting system based on this disruption?
Actually, were going to give you 5 reasons why Manchester United was able to keep Rooney:
1. Arsene Wenger made a great point when he said that he's seen it before, and knows that ultimately the clubs decide what to do with their property.
2. Manchester United seemed to have won the press battle, an uphill battle that saw an already unpopular Rooney losing a popularity battle due to the before mentioned scandal.
3. He just wanted more money and he got it. Manchester United thinks he is worth every penny, and despite all allegations you had better bet he is.
4. Letting Rooney go for the remaining 18months of his contract would be like giving away 10million euros. Financial suicide for any club.
5. It is also reported that a huge NIKE advertisement was vandalized with threatening statements made towards Rooney and his leaving of the club. Thugs, hooligans may have had a part in Rooney staying.

This doesn't change anything for the Manchester United squad, they are winning with serious players and a deep bench. Don't change your betting system just yet.

The NBA Begins With Change


The NBA Opens its 2010 -2011 Season
The Opening of the NBA season began with a lot of change. First of all the NBA draft announced that it would move locations from New York City to Newark, David Stern NBA Commissioner has yet to make that announcement. The Los Angeles Lakers received their 2009-2010 Championship rings before taking on the Houston Rockets, in their home opener. This game saw Yao Ming making his seven foot plus re-entry into the league. This game shortly after the Celtics beat the Miami Heat. O ya and by the way the Lakers come from behind to win that home opener.
First things first are you going to bet on the Miami Heat and Lebron James’ winning this season? If you are their first game wasn’t so hot. They had a serious lack of ball movement. The Heat have a lot of work to do, the big three of the Celtics Ray Allen, Raja Rondo, and Paul Pierce, mixed with production and excitement from Shaquille O’neal, were too much for the hopeful Miami Club. It looked like a classic case of too much talent on one squad for the Miami squad. I would keep my bets aimed at LeBron, although he didn’t connect against one of the best teams in the league once Bosh, James and Wade click and Pat Riley finds the best 5 players to match up this team will be good.
The Lakers are going to win the NBA and threepeat. Why? Because Kobe Bryant last years finals MVP was not the main producer for this club. Big three point plays down the stretch by Steve Blake, and huge post production by Pau Gasol gave the Lakers the edge they needed. If this team can continue to play well while Kobe is not 100% there is no doubt that they will continue to dominate.
Going into the game the Lakers were favored by 7points. They did not cover that 7 point spread, in fact this match came down to the wire.  The Heat were a 2 point favorite to beat the Celtics. Bet on the Lakers, Heat, and Celtics to win throughout the season.
