One particular game stood out this week which was Bengals hosting the Dophins. I had this game marked at least 1/3 on for the bengals rather than the 1.61 that is being chalked up currently on betfair. I understand that the Bengals have played a great deal of strength and one of the teams they beat in the Browns might not win a game all season. However the market seems to have got this game more open than I had expected. Miami may be slightly better than people thought and Tanehill looks good so far but I thought that the vast majority of any wins would come at home. The pricing does not seem to reflect a 3-1 team against a 1-3 team at all.

A lot like last week this Bengals team is not getting the recognition it deserves. I still think they are somewhat off the cream of the NFL but they should be alot shorter than they are now.

Fancy Miami to pull off a shock here especially getting a start , Overs in New England and Overs in Washington with Washington to win with the Hcap as well.

Maybe a biased opinion now as I'm a dolphins fan but how we are not 3-1 I do not know.

This team needs to learn to finish and the kicker needs to get his confidence back and make some kicks very quickly!!

We will cause a couple of shocks along the way this season as Reggie Bush and this O-line looks very good, The D has always been excellent at stopping the run but can be attacked in the secondry.

But I think the original poster is right that the Bengals are very underrated and I do see them beating Miami this week.

I actually wouldn't be surprised if Miami again were winning going into the 4th quarter but end up being on the wrong side of the result.

Regarding the rest of the week, I think there is 1 standout price and that is the Seattle Seahawks.

Carolina in my eyes are such an overrated team and it's mainly because of Cam Newton effect. This team was 6-10 last year and again this year they have started poorly with a 1-3 record but everybody loves Superman and get lost in the fact that really they are not that good.

Yes the Panthers are at home and yes the Seahawks are a much better home team but the Seahawks are a much stronger team when you compare defenses and Marshawn Lynch could easily destroy this soft run defense and I expect them to control the game from start to finish.

I c an't believe you're a Dophins fan with a name like Zach Thomas! Wink

There are a few reasons we're not 3-1: Carpenter (obviously) but also a few Rookie decisions down the stretch by RT and some very dubious play calling late in games also. Despite the fact the Fins should be 3-1, you've got to remember who we've played. There has only been one decent team and that has been the Texans; the rest have been garbage (ok, the Cards have a good D but offensively they're gash).

I too expected the Bungals to be

I'm with the Bengals and Seattle for the reasons already stated here. The Bengals have a couple of players returning to a secondary unit that has been depleted to date.
I like the Vikes at home to the Titans. Britt may be an additional casualty come game time, I also believe that Minnesota's offence offers plenty of variety with the return of Simpson, a legit deep threat facing the 27th ranked pass defence.
The 49ers to cover against Buffalo. Buffalo may have to rely upon Fitzpatrick due to San Francisco's stubborn run defence and that would worry me if I were a bill's fan, particularly as the 49ers aren't bad defending the pass either.

Seahawks +2.5 @ 21/20(pp)
Bengals -3 @ 4/5 (pp)
49ers - 9.5 @ 20/23(pp)
Vikings - 5.5 @ 10/11 (pp)

Trebles and an acca (paddy offer a concession this week, money back if 1 team fails on your handicap acca)

Enjoy!

Our perfect start ends today... Lay Atlanta. We struggle against the rush, more so when it's a rushing QB. Trying to find a prop bet on RG3 rush yards too.
