Week 3 Key NFL Trends From NFLOne.com

AT FIRST GLANCE…there are games that always look ‘Tasty’ ATS in many publications as a ‘Bullet’ trend only to ‘trap’ upon further review. In 2006, The Director looked for the first time to clear the way for you to understand which team has the real ‘ADVANTAGE’ against the ‘Trend’.

The Director draws even greater clarity by identifying the Key Trends as either‘First Look’ or ‘King Trends':

As the economy shakes, fans will look to the stability of long term Key NFL Trends as they never have before.  If you want stability, you will want to steer away from I have to speak to the crossroads of Dallas and GREEN BAY.  For those who recall Rodgers premiere and loss last year in Dallas, you may not remember the Packers victory ATS in Lambeau back in 2004 41-20.  1-1 ATS, this game is definitely the crossroads of their rivalry.

WATCH OUT FOR THE MEDIA HYPE

Another series at the crossroads heads back to Washington where the Redskins D, will work to continue their run over the last three seasons of holding the Cardinals to an average of 15 points per game.  1-1 ATS and 2-0 SU, the Redskins who escaped in 2004 with a 4 point victory, and a 2 point victory in 2008, will hope they can muster up more than the 19 points of offense a game that gives the Cardinals an opportunity for victory.

If there was ever a division at the crossroads, it is the AFC South where the INDIANAPOLIS COLTS, who in pulling out a flashy last minute victory in week 2, face off against the Jaguars, who in losing their second game of 2008, arrive 2-1 ATS, yet 0-3 SU versus the Colts in Indianapolis over the last three years. Averaging as 7+ point Underdogs, the question remains, ‘Can they keep it close?’.  Having averaged 13 to 53 points, anything is possible in these matchups.

FIRST LOOK

Facing off against two of the NFL’s behemoths to start the season, the Cleveland Browns will welcome the sight of the BALTIMORE RAVENS. Having only managed an average of 6.5 points in their first two games with Dallas and Pittsburgh, the Browns arrive in Baltimore where they are 2-0 ATS, 1-1 SU over the last two years.  Even more impressive is their 5-0 run ATS in their last five matchups with the Ravens.  Better settle in for the afternoon as these teams have been separated by only 1.5 points in their two matchups here in Baltimore.

KING TRENDS

Fans will be tempted to look to divisional rivalries this week as the Miami Dolphins arrive in New England.  Favored by as many as 22 points at Home last year versus the PATRIOTS’ Cassel, 101.4 rating, will look to keep the team’s winning streak alive, a streak that has seen the Patriots win ATS in the team’s first matchup of the season with the Dolphins five years in a row.  ‘Hard to believe that the Patriots were actually Underdogs of 6 points back in 2003’.  Although Belichick is 2-2 ATS versus the Fish over the last two years, they have outscored Miami by an average of 15 points per game in their first meeting of the year.
ADVANTAGE PATRIOTS

Can’t get your hands on Treasury Bills, you will want to head to Tennessee where Jeff Fisher will face off with the Houston Texans.  5-1 ATS, 6-0 SU, in their last six matchups, the TENNESSE TITANS defense, allowing only 202 yards per game, will look to keep their winning ways alive. Having scored 28 points per game in their last two matchups at Home with the Texans in this series, while allowing an average of 21, this game will not be for the ‘weak of heart’.
