drew brees wageringNFC Divisional Playoff Wagering

The divisional round of NFL playoff wagering begins on Saturday with what is expected to be a high scoring game between the Arizona Cardinals and New Orleans Saints at 4:30pm ET live on FOX. The Cardinals won the highest scoring playoff game in NFL wagering history last week as they defeated Green Bay 51-45 in overtime. Arizona might need to score a lot of points again as they face the New Orleans Saints on Saturday since the Saints had the best offense in the NFL this season. The New Orleans Saints are a 7-point sports wagering lines favorite with a total of 57 at SBG Global.
 
It will be a matchup of great quarterbacks on Saturday as Kurt Warner leads the Cardinals while Drew Brees leads New Orleans. Warner threw for 379 yards and five touchdowns in last week’s win. Warner has had great success in the playoffs in this career as his teams are 9-3. The Cardinals will probably need Warner to have another big game against a New Orleans team that scored 45 points or more in four games this year. The Saints rested their starters in the last regular season game so they come into this game at pretty much full strength. "We know how to play at a high level offensively," Brees said. "The opportunity to get guys healthy - that was huge. We’ve been banged up at times throughout the season."
 
Arizona’s defense was awful last week and New Orleans didn’t play well defensively for much of the season as they were 25th in the league. The Saints could have difficulty slowing down Arizona’s passing attack and even their running game. Beanie Wells could have a field day against a Saints defense that allowed 166.3 yards per game on the on the ground over the last three weeks.
 
Arizona and New Orleans have never met in the NFL wagering playoffs. The last time they met in the regular season was in December of 2007 as the Saints won 31-24 at the Superdome. The Cardinals are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 playoff games. The Cardinals are 15-7 ATS in their last 22 games overall. The Cardinals are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 meetings against New Orleans. The Saints are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 home games. The Saints are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games in January. The Over is 5-1 in the Cardinals last 6 playoff games. The Under is 5-2 in the Cardinals last 7 road games. The Under is 4-0 in the Saints last 4 home games.

Chargers Wagering Lines Favorite for 2010 NFL Divisional Playoffs

chargers hot cheerleader rackOdds makers at Sportsbook.com have taken notice of San Diego’s current 11-game win streak, as they made the Chargers a -9 point sports wagering lines favorite over the New York Jets in their AFC Divisional Playoff game on Sunday. Bettors seem to think that this line was too high, as a decent amount of early action on this matchup has been on the underdog, causing Sportsbook.com to move the line to the current number of San Diego -7.5 faves over New York. 

The next biggest favorite for this weekend’s Divisional Playoff wagering games are the NFC #1 seed New Orleans Saints, who are seven point wagering lines favorites against the Arizona Cardinals. According to Sportsbook.com spokesperson Dave Staley, “Despite using one of the highest playoff totals in recent memory and even though both teams have gone under the posted total in 5 of their past 6 games, the betting public keeps hammering the total in this game. In fact, almost 90 percent of the action on the total is backing the Over, causing our lines makers to move the total from 56.5 to 57 less than 20 minutes after we offered this matchup.”
 
The AFC #1 seed Indianapolis Colts are -6.5 point wagering lines favorites against the suddenly surging Baltimore Ravens , who made Tom Brady look like Marsha Brady, causing him to throw three interceptions and lose one fumble. The Colts and Ravens did face each other in Baltimore in late November; with the Colts winning a hard fought 17-15 game. The Ravens did move the ball well, racking up 354 yards of total offense, but had to settle for 5 field goals. “Peyton Manning has to be foaming at the mouth to get back into action in a meaningful game, and to show everyone why the Colts are considered the favorites to win the Super Bowl” added Staley. 
 
The game with the smallest spread is considered by many to be the most intriguing game for the Divisional Playoffs. The Minnesota Vikings are -2.5 point sports wagering lines favorites against the hottest team left in the NFC, the Dallas Cowboys. All the Cowboys have done over the past month is knock the Saints from the ranks of the undefeated, and then pitch back-to-back shutouts against the Redskins and Eagles, before dismantling Philadelphia again in the postseason. Standing in the Cowboys way to the NFC Championship game, is Brett Favre who had one of his finest seasons ever throwing for over 4200 yards and tossing 33 TD passes, compared to just 7 interceptions.

NFL Playoff Wagering Philadelphia vs Dallas Lines

jay ratliffPhiladelphia makes a return trip to Dallas after Sunday’s ugly 24-0 loss which cost the division title and a would-be bye this weekend. Instead, the Cowboys will play as NFC East Champs, getting the advantage of playing at home where they are 6-2 SU & 5-3 ATS so far in ’09. Dallas will also play as the favorite of 3 ½-points, and getting the support of 56% of bettors at Sportsbook.com. 

With back-to-back shutouts, Dallas finished as the NFC’s best defense in terms of points allowed at 15.6 PPG. Of course, they also gained a lofty 7.8 yards per pass attempt, so it would seem Dallas is ready to break a 13-year playoff-win drought.  
 
The Eagles have been an NFC playoff wagering fixture this decade and reached the conference championship game as the #6 seed last January. They are 10-7 SU & 11-6 ATS in the postseason under Andy Reid, including 4-0 SU & 3-1 ATS in the Wild-Card round. 
 
It wasn’t long ago—approximately a year—that Tony Romo’s biggest nightmare was the Philadelphia Eagles. After leading Dallas to a sweep of the season series, perhaps the tables have been turned completely around. The Cowboys swept the regular-season series for the first time since 2005, and Romo continued his stellar play down the stretch, throwing for 311 yards and two touchdowns. Over his last six games, Romo has thrown for 1,859 yards and 11 scores with just two interceptions. 
 
The tandem of Marion Barber and Felix Jones combined for 182 yards and a score on 29 carries in Week 17 and each ripped off runs of more than 30 yards. Romo comfortably completed 24 passes with throws of at least 25 yards to three different receivers, snapping the Eagles six-game winning streak.

What’s troublesome for Philadelphia is the fact that the offense, which averaged a healthy 31.2 points during the winning streak, went completely into the tank and scored just 16 points in two games against the Cowboys.  
 
Only one other team held the scoring unit below 22 points—Oakland. McNabb, meanwhile, turned in one of the best seasons of his career despite missing two games due to broken ribs and couldn’t solve the Dallas defense. In two games, he was sacked seven times and threw one touchdown and a pair of interceptions, completing just 36 of his 66 throws. If there’s one player in particular the Eagles need to be aware of that isn’t named DeMarcus Ware, it might be Jay Ratliff. The fifth-year nose tackle has recorded 16 tackles, with three sacks and two fumble recoveries, in the last four meetings. 
 
History is on Philadelphia’s side when it comes to the postseason and production. Since 2000, Philadelphia has advanced to the playoffs seven times and won each of its seven opening games. The Cowboys haven’t enjoyed a postseason victory since 1996 when it knocked off Minnesota in the wild-card round. Jerry Jones’ franchise has lost its last six playoff games and failed to score more than 20 points in any of them. 
 
PREDICTION: Romo has now overcome two of his biggest demons—Philadelphia and regular-season games in December and January. Now, he gets a shot to clear another hurdle by winning his first playoff game after losses in 2007 (Carolina) and ‘08 (Giants). The way Barber and Jones performed in Week 17, coupled with the defense’s sparkling stretch run, points to another milestone victory for Romo.
