Picks4Players White Hot Selections- NFL Week # 3 and all for FREE, FREE, FREE

Here are PICKS4PLAYERS BEST BETS for NFL week 3. 

As always, proceed with caution and play at your own risk.

 

Tennessee @ NY Jets, 1 pm EST

Current Line: NY Jets -2 

The desperate (0-2) Tennessee Titans have their backs against the wall as they face the flying high (2-0) Jets of New Jersey.  We have to believe that proven, skilled, defensive tactician Jeff Fisher will have the Titans motivated and ready to attack Jets’ rookie QB Mark ‘Dirty Sanchise’ Sanchez.  Look for Tennessee to shorten the game using their potent ground attack while the Tennessee defense shuts down the Jets running game leaving Sanchez in some difficult 3^rd and long situations. 

Our Pick: Tennessee +2

 

Jacksonville @ Houston, 1 pm EST

Current Line: Houston -3 ½  

After falling flat in week one, Houston rebounded to defeat Tennessee in week two.  We think last weeks win will carry over to this Sunday when Jacksonville comes to town.  Houston is typically very strong at home, so we think that the week 1 loss at home was an exception.  Jacksonville has struggled on offense and the Jags haven’t seemed to respond well to Head-Coach Jake Del Rio’s act for the last 2 plus years, and we see no reason for that to change this week.  Look for Matt ‘Stump the’ Schaub to have strong numbers today (for you fantasy tools).

Our Pick: Houston -3 ½

 

San Francisco @ Minnesota, 1 pm EST

Current Line: Minnesota -6 ½   

After 2 relatively easy wins on the road at Cleveland and Detroit, Minnesota returns home for their opener at the Metrodome to face the rejuvenated 49ers.  This is a huge benchmark game for the 49ers whose new found toughness on both sides of the ball will be challenged today all the way to the end regardless of the score.  If the 49ers can find a way to win this one, then Coach Singletary and his men will have climbed a certain hill on the 49er organization’s road back to NFL respectability.   We see this as a defensive battle with both teams staying with the ground game for as long as they can.  In the end this will be a battle of field goals, so instead of picking a side….

Our Pick: UNDER 40

 

Green Bay @ St. Louis, 1 pm EST

Current Line: Green Bay -6 ½

Green Bay has struggled in pass protection early on, but a game against probably the worst team in the NFL will be a cure all.  After last weeks disappointing loss to Cincinnati, Green Bay will be extra motivated to get a win this week.  St. Louis’ anemic offense has only 1 touchdown in 8 quarters this year.

Our Pick: Green Bay -6 ½

 

Atlanta @ New England, 1 pm EST

Current Line: New England -4 ½

New England could very easily be 0-2 heading into this game while Atlanta heads on the road for the first time this year.  We’ve been telling you for two years that the tainted and stained New England ‘dynasty’ is over and they’ve done nothing this season to suggest anything other than mediocrity. New England has some injury issues at wide receiver and their lackluster defense will have all kinds of problems stopping Atlanta’s Michael Turner.  Also, the Pats have nobody to match-up with new Falcons TE Tony Gonzalez.  Atlanta has the better defense and ground game, which are the 2 biggest factors in winning on the road in the NFL.

Our Pick: Atlanta +4 ½

 

Indianapolis @ Arizona

Current Line: Arizona –2 1/2

The Indy defense has to be tired after chasing the Miami offense last Monday.  Now they have to come back on a short week to chase the Arizona receivers all over the field.  The Arizona defense is very underrated and should match up well against the Indy receivers.  We llo for this to be a high scoring affair.  Arizona will not be able to be as successful at keeping Peyton Manning off the field.  Miami’s 8 minute drives severely limited the Colts’ offensive touches yet they were still able to score almost at will.  Two of their touchdowns were scored in less than 45 seconds.

Our Picks: Arizona –2 1/2 and OVER 48

NFL Week 2 - A great Sunday of NFL action

When the Jets and Patriots tee it up at 1 pm EST today it will be the first of many exciting and high energy NFL match-ups. The day concludes with another outstanding match-up between New Jersey’s other pro football team, The New York Giants and the Dallas Cowboys where these two teams will officially open the Cowboys new stadium tonight at 8:20 pm EST. Today will be an example of why the NFL is such great entertainment. Enjoy!

Here are our top picks for NFL week 2 from your consulting team at Picks4Players:

Oakland @ Kansas City , 1 pm EST
Current Line: Kansas City -3
In week one, Oakland played well enough to beat the Chargers while the Chiefs stayed with Baltimore for 3 quarters before losing by 14 points. On the basis of last week, it would seem the Raiders are clearly better than Kansas City. Call us crazy but I don’t see the pathetic, stumbling, bumbling Raiders of the post Gruden era. Here is some added value on the Raiders side, the visitor in this series has covered 11 of the last 12 and the Raiders have won each of the last 2 times at Arrowhead. Our Pick: Oakland +3

St. Louis @ Washington, 1 pm EST
Current Line: OVER/UNDER 36 ½
If St. Louis couldn’t score last week in Seattle, how are they going to score this week against a better defense? Washington will win the game but this won’t be the prettiest offensive show. Look for Clinton Portis and Stephen Jackson to get the bulk of their teams’ respective workloads, which will mean a very quick game with fewer drives and fewer opportunities to score for both sides. Our Pick: UNDER 36 ½

New England @ NY Jets, 1 pm EST
Current Line: New England -3 ½
The Jets win last week against a weak Texans team and now all of a sudden they are good enough to compete with New England? No way! Emotion can only take you so far and you can bet that these Jets will be flying high. Too high. They will blitz at every opportunity in an effort to rattle and hurt Tom Brady, but New England will game plan and adjust. A team that is too hyped tends to over react to pump fakes and play action and be highly susceptible to the quick hit plays that the Pats like to run to Welker. Too much fire power on the offensive side and defensively they will be licking their chops to get at the Sanchise, Jets rookie QB Mark ‘Dirty’ Sanchez. New England has covered 8 in a row in the division on the road.
Our Pick: New England -3 ½

Baltimore @ San Diego, 4:15 pm EST
Current Line: San Diego -3
Did anyone watch week one? San Diego was outplayed for 3 quarters by the Raiders while Baltimore showed a very balanced offense in putting away the Chiefs. This looks like a great match up for the Ravens offense and defense against a Charger team that is without Tomlinson and it looks like starting center Nick Hardwick will be out too.
Our Pick: Baltimore +3 and we like them on the money line too!

NY Giants @ Dallas, 8:20 pm EST
Current Line: Dallas -3
Dallas officially opens the new stadium where the largest crowd ever to watch an NFL game is expected. Dallas looked good against a Tampa Bay team we expect to have about 3 wins on the season. The Giants are one of the best road teams in the NFL going 17-2 against the spread under Tom Coughlin. Yes, Dallas will be rockin’ but NY has the better lines on both sides of the ball.
Our Pick: NY Giants +3

Here are three more plays to consider:

Arizona @ Jacksonville – UNDER 42 ½

Cleveland @ Denver – Cleveland +3

New Orleans @ Philadelphia – OVER 46
