Saints have done some very nice business. Shifting Bush and acquiring Sproles (at least his equal imo) gives them Ingram/Sproles/Thomas/Ivory on the depth chart at RB. And Big Baby and Aubrayo Franklyn, to bolster the DL, both rank high on PF Focus's DT chart for the last few years.

Franklin a nice pick up. Not really feeling that backfield yet.

Finding it hard to keep up with all the player changes
Enjoying reading sports illustrated around training camp specials though by Peter king. No real standout teams for me ATM. Pats probably rightly favourites particularly now they have big Albert who will probably be used as a weapon. |

By:
How can the Patriots be legitimate favourites when they can film the opposition anymore? Only a matter of time before their mug spread offence and lack of a pass rush gets shown up again.

18/1 Calvin Johnson for the top receiving yards, way too big for me, dome team, qb stays upright(hopefully),better defence and the schedule isn't brutal.

d13 lay lay lay of the patriots again?? [;)]

I like that Johnson bet
Next best price is 9/1, admittedly from just a handful of bookies pricing it up so far |
|
By:
50/1 any team to go 16-0 with billys.Should have happened twice in the last for years.

By:
four

By:
That's a great bet IMO
Shame they won't let me have more than a few quid on. They might let mrs D though  |

By:
80/1 in paddies for a 16-0 season. wont be that price for long because i have just had a good bet on it. dont think it will happen as i cant see any team (apart from possibly the packers) being so dominant this year.
|
|
By:
8 quid max bet with paddies i got and its not a winning account.
|
|
By:
they let me put on 50 euro. must not think too much of me!. i see it has been cut to 40/1 this morning

NFC West - Rams might be the bet, but I'd wait until they're 1 and 6 before placing it
 Opening seven games are ridiculously tough, probably only the Redskins game that they're favourites for. But the second half of the season is a lot smoother, with all the divisional games winnable and games against the Browns and Bengals too (which they'll hope to have chances in). But a 1-6 start would see the odds a lot better than they are now... |
|
By:
good call rdb. rams could easily begin 1 and 6, then finish the season 9 and 7, which would surely win the division. the only thing is that after 7 games they probanly wont be more than 2 games behind!

I should declare a vested interest, as a Ram!
We've made some very good moves in both the draft and FA - will definitely be stronger all over. I don't think that's going to be strong enough to push the Eagles, Packers, Saints etc in the early weeks (especially as the side will still be gelling) but come the home stretch I'd hope we'd go on a really good run and be the 'hot' side going into the play offs. As you say, there's a fair chance that our divisional rivals will most likely be no better than 3-4 at best but still, I'm sure 1-6 will frighten some people into laying the Rams at better value than they currently are |

By:
probably only the Redskins game that they're favourites for
How dare you! As if a QB or running game or defense or offensive line or secondary are critical parts of a football team. |
|
By:
haha! So you're happy with your punter then?
 tbf, Cofield's a great pickup - I was hoping his relationship with Spags would see him move to us, but not to be. Not sure about the QB situation, underwhelmed by both Grossman and Beck. Hopes for the season? |
|
By:
Ha ha Rams!!!

COLTS @ the odds for mine. GL all
(unless you are laying the Colts) |
|
By:
Never advise people to go against their gut in this sport but Manning's fitness is pretty ropey. Doesn't look like he will play any pre season games and may even miss one or two regular season games. He certainly wont be finally tuned. Colts might be a team to back mid season if you fancy them.
|
|
By:
Agree with the nugget - Colts' backup qbs looked very poor last night. Pre-season or not, they were throwing ints that were nowhere near their targets. Manning is huge for that team. He'll be back, but maybe not for the first couple of weeks (and certainly not at fitness until at least weeks three / four). Can't see them not making the play offs but you might get more value backing them in a couple of months than you will now - certainly don't see them coming in before then, either way.
Standing by the Rams call, btw (watch them struggle early on and then power through to the post season). Only pre-season but saw some big improvements in some of the areas I was worried about - and signs that the McDaniels offense is going to let us off the leash a bit. Can't wait  |

ASHBURN, Va. (AP) - Rex Grossman created quite the stir last week, and all he did was exude some confidence.
The veteran quarterback went on television and said he really feels the Washington Redskins are going to win the NFC East. While perhaps an outlandish prospect to some, it was more or less his way of stating the standard win-the-division goal that every team has in training camp. Sorted  |

guys , anyone think that this is agood bet ,, eagles total wins with coral, the line is 11, im going under, so we have the 11 as a money back , can they win 12 or more ?? i just dont think they will,, not exactly an easy division that there in , and not the easiest of schedules ,,

Calvin Johnson 16/1 with Paddies now
|
|
By:
also Manning top passer at standout 14s. Anyone got an update as to whether he is likely to play week 1
|
|
By:
He expects to be fit for week 1 but he won't have had any Pre season
|

By:
Im looking forward to seeing out shutdown corners dominate the nfc east this year
These QBs are going to need a lot of time to find some open receivers and before you know it boommmm trent cole will have ou wrapped up...outside bet for most sacks..not seen a market..anyone? |

I'm really liking the look of the texans this year
At 2.5 for the division they look a steal particularly with the problems that the colts have with manning Jags and titans aren't even worth considering The texans obviously have problems on the D but wade Phillips is the man to improve that. Cowboys D nearly took them all the way when he was in control |
