Bills Vs. Redskins, Chiefs Vs. Falcons QB Rotations and NFL Wagering 411

Preseason NFL continues tonight and here is what bettors need to know.

Here is the Bills vs. Redskins official betting preview. Washington is -4.5 at Bodog with a total of 34. Notes compiled by OffshoreInsiders.com 

Washington’s right side of the OL is a concern. RT Jammal Brown is out, RG Artis Hicks is struggling making the transition from tackle. 

New Redskins signal caller Donovan McNabb is struggling. He is expected to see 12-15 snaps. For the Skins, in addition to Brown, out are WR Malcolm Kelly, who had 25 receptions last year, WR Mike Furrey, who caught 23 passes in 2009, S Chris Horn, and QB Richard Bartel. S LeRon Landry is expected to play despite a toe injury. 

The Redskins are running a complex West Coast offense under new head coach Mike Shanahan and son Kyle, the offensive coordinator. Likewise, new defensive coordinator ditched the successful 4-3 in favor of an aggressive 3-4. 

Led by new QB Donovan McNabb, the first unit offense will take 15-18 snaps. McNabb has been shaky in camp with respect to grasping the new offense. Guys fighting for roster spots (not starting unit) on offense will get more playing time in their next game. 

Backup QB Richard Bartel is doubtful for the Skins. With newly acquired John Beck not familiar with the playbook, Bears castoff Rex Grossman may play three quarters. 

NFL oddsmakers note that Buffalo is minus three starters on the offensive line: LT Demetrius Bell, RG Eric Wood, and RT Cornell Green. Trent Edwards will start at QB for the Bills but Ryan Fitzpatrick is expected to see a lot of action. He’s been alternating the No. 2 spot with Brohm, who is expected to get the bulk of the action next Thursday. 

Bills starters will likely play “numerous series.” Three young O-linemen will see a lot of time: Kyle Calloway, Jason Watkins, Nick Hennessey. 

The Bills defense is adapting to a new 3-4 scheme. Two starters are out on D: Paul Posluszny and Chris Kelsay, both LBs. 

Last year the starting unit had 15 possessions and zero touchdowns in the exhibition season.

The Atlanta Falcons and Kansas City Chiefs do battle in NFL preseason picks tonight. Here is the official preview for professional bettors. Does betting on your own have you in more hot water than Dr. Laura Schlessinger? Triskaidekaphobia is about the only thing your bookmaker has going for him as only bad luck can stop those who know have the right intel. 

Atlanta is laying 2.5 to three points depending on which online sportsbook is used. The total also ranges from 34 to 34.5. 

Lines-Maker.com’s Brian Kayma reports that Atlanta WR Michael Jenkins is done for the preseason. He caught 50 passes last year. Kansas City has a new offensive coordinator in alleged genius Charlie Weis. They also have a beefed up offensive line. 

Likewise, they added fellow former New England Patriots defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel. Kansas City is mostly healthy entering tonight. 

Culture of winning needed? The Chiefs went winless in NFLX last year, then started out the regular season 0-5. QB Matt Cassel said that the Chiefs are ready to get the taste of losing out of their mouth. 

Chiefs’ legend Tony Gonzalez plays against his former team for the first time. KC coach Todd Haley has been mum on how long his starters will play, but it’s expected to be about a quarter. Two rookies, first rounder Eric Berry and WR Dexter McCluster, their second round pick, will likely play into the second quarter. 

Totals bettors, note that Atlanta backup QB Chris Redman will work on the two-minute offense. 

Atlanta is without LB Mike Peterson, who started all 16 games last year. First round pick Sean Weatherspoon starts in his place. Atlanta will be minus nine to 11 players. 

Against the spread records (all preseason records only): Kansas City is 11-25 virtual pick ‘em games (+/- three points or less either way). The Chiefs have gone under 10-2 in domes.
