Predictions
Week 4, 2010: New England Patriots @ Miami Dolphins
Sep 30th
3 weeks of NFL sure goes by fast. It only seems like last week when I was analysing the Baltimore Ravens picks from the 2010 draft. We’ve been blessed in that we’ve had some great games so far, and I’m sure there are many more to go, after all the season is still young. So this week I’ll be heading to the Sun Life Stadium where I believe the Patriots v the Dolphins will provide one hell of a contest.

NFL 2010 Week 4 Predictions
Sep 30th
Week 4 of the NFL 2010 season is here, and has some special moments coming up: Donovan McNabb preparing to get booed in Philli.. (yeah, that’s not news is it?); The AFC East teams matching up; The Battle of Ohio; The Lions at the wounded Packers. There are some great stories this week and there are going to be some good game regardless of what time you get to bed if you’re on UK time.
With the bye-weeks kicking in, there are just 14 games this week. None of us have made good starts to the season, and we’re all hoping to improve here. Let’s take a look…
Week 4: Seattle Seahawks @ St. Louis Rams
Sep 30th
Whichever way you look at it the Rams are a much-improved team this season. At the end of last season you might have written them off right away against the Seahawks, but as things stand now this could be one of the games of the week.

Week 4, 2010: Arizona Cardinals @ San Diego Chargers
Sep 30th
Shawn Merriman
Week 4 sees the Arizona Cardinals (2-1) travel to San Diego to take on the Chargers (1-2). That record means that the Chargers are currently propping up the AFC West, a position that they are not used to at all.
The Chargers have been struggling on special teams (actually, that’s an understatement) and gave up two kick-off returns against the Seahawks with Leon Washington returning kicks for 99 and 101 yards. This is on top of Dexter McCluster’s runback in week one that was a factor in them losing to the Chiefs in week 1.
Results, Week 3 2010
Sep 28th
More averageness from us this week, in yet another week that turned up some surprising results. We’ll be back later this week with our picks for week 4. This week we’ll get the Giants game right… probably.

Week 3, 2010: Green Bay Packers @ Chicago Bears
Sep 25th
This week I’ll be taking a look at the game between undefeated divisional rivals the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears. Generally we get a great game between these two sides, and if you’re staying up late in the UK to watch the Monday Night NFL, then you should be in for a good one. It’s a cliché, but this game is all about the quarterbacks.

Week 3, 2010: Detroit Lions @ Minnesota Vikings
Sep 23rd
The Minnesota Vikings will be looking to dig out of their 0-2 hole and cash in against the NFL Odds when they host the Detroit Lions in a battle of winless NFC North teams when they take to the gridiron at Mall of America Field at Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome in Minneapolis, MN on Sunday at 1:00 PM ET.

Here is a look at the key head-to-head trends surrounding this contest, followed y my in-depth analysis and expert NFL spread Picks.
Despite entering this contest with an 0-2 SU mark, the Detroit Lions haven’t played bad football at all this season and could very well be 2-0 instead of the other way around.
Detroit was robbed on an errant call in their season-opening loss to Chicago and came up just short against Philadelphia on Sunday. The Lions lost to the Birds 35-32 but easily managed to cover the game’s NFL Odds in Football as a 6.5-point home underdog to move to a perfect 2-0 against the spread while the game’s final score played well Over the 41-point O/U total.
The Lions got a jaw-dropping effort from rookie running back Jahvid Best as he became the first rookie in NFL history to record 150 receiving yards, 75 rushing yards and three touchdowns in the same game.
The Vikings are in a spot of trouble NFL betting enthusiasts after falling to the Miami Dolphins 14-10 on Sunday. Minnesota is averaging a pitiful 9.5 points per game this season and failed to cover the game’s NFL Odds against the Dolphins as a 5.5-point home favorite.
Brett Favre completed 22 of 36 passes for 225 yards but was picked off by Miami’s Jason Allen three times in the loss while the game’s final score played well Under the 40.5-point O/U total.

NFL 2010 Week 3 Predictions
Sep 23rd
Week 3 of the NFL 2010 season is here, and it looks like being a good one!
The New York Giants are our bogey team at the moment, so we’re hoping they come through against the Titans but there are plenty of interesting stories and great match-ups to enjoy like the Packers @ Bears as the Monday night game and the intriguing Cowboys @ Texans as well as Jets @ Dolphins early in the UK Sunday morning.
Week 3, 2010: Pittsburgh Steelers @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Sep 23rd
As with all of the NFL teams that have played at Wembley Stadium here in the UK, and certainly the ‘home’ teams, I feel a certain affinity for the Tampa Bay Buccanners. Though they were well and truly out-classed in the International Series last season, we still appreciated them coming and giving it a go.
This week they host the Pittsburgh Steelers, in a battle of two team that are currently undefeated in the 2010 season.

Results, Week 2 2010
Sep 21st
Well, we’re proving pretty average at this so far this season. The first few weeks do generally prove difficult to predict, regardless of how the games look on paper, and I think we’ll all improve in the next couple of weeks.
