In only a matter of days, the NFL regular season will begin again. NFL betting enthusiasts looking for a couple of quick picks have come to the right spot. With all of the new acquisitions per team this offseason, the NFL betting lines are all over the place. Here are two quick picks that can make you a lot of money.

• New Orleans Saints are a four and a half point favorite over the Minnesota Vikings- After looking at multiple sportsbooks, we found that the defending Super Bowl Champion Saints were only a four and a half point favorite over their NFC Championship opponents.

This pick made us scratch our heads, on the one hand, yes both teams come into the 2010 season with virtually the same rosters from a year ago, but on the other hand, the Vikings have quite a few question marks. For instance, starting pivot Brett Favre missed the majority of training camp as a result of his annual ‘I can’t make up my mind’ ritual. Secondly, wide receiver Percy Harvin has spent this offseason battling migraines and Sydney Rice has been out with injury and may not even play this season. At minus four and a half, taking the Saints in what should be a larger victory is pretty good. Take the Saints at four and a half any day of the week.

• Tennessee Titans are a six and a half point favorite over the Oakland Raiders – The Raiders did more this offseason in regards to player movement. However, even with JaMarcus Russell leaving Oakland, the majority of sportsbooks feel the Raiders will lose by six and a half points. With former Washington Redskin pivot Jason Campbell now having health issues, taking the Titans at six and a half points is essentially highway robbery. Take the Titans at six and a half, but expect them to win by seven or more.

When talking about the NFL betting changes of the Minnesota Vikings to make the postseason, it is impossible not to mention the notorious future Hall of Fame quarterback Brett Favre and whether or not he will be back, if for no other reason than how important he is to the team’s chances. Without Favre, the Vikings were a one-dimensional offense that relied on a solid run game and a top-five defense just to get in to the playoffs. With Favre, the Vikings are a force on offense in both the run and pass aspects, with each helping the other, while the defense has remained solid. Although all three teams in their division have each gotten better, Minnesota still must be considered the division favorite as long as number-four is under center.

The Dallas Cowboys have improved in every betting year under head coach Wade Phillips, and have to be the AFC East division favorites despite the high level of the Philadelphia Eagles, New York Giants, and Washington Redskins. All four of those teams could potentially win the division, and at least one of them should lock up at least one Wild Card spot. The San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks could compete for a Wild Card spot, but neither appears ready to challenge the Arizona Cardinals for top spot in the AFC West. The AFC South has had a new winner every season, but this year it looks as though the New Orleans Saints will be pressured by the Atlanta Falcons and no one else. With the Saints, Cowboys, Vikings, and Cardinals all winning their divisions, look for the Giants, Falcons, Packers, and 49ers to compete for the two Wild Card spots.

The online sports betting odds for games won, division winners, and Super Bowl champions are already available for the 2010-11 season, and while players will be quick to put their money down on the perennial favorites in the AFC, a little revision could sway their favor in another direction. While the Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers appear poised to repeat once again as division champions in otherwise weak foursomes, the New England Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers will have a tough battle to hold off the New York Jets and Baltimore Ravens respectively.

New York showed incredible improvement under first year head coach Rex Ryan in 2009-10, clinching one of the two Wild Card spots en route to the AFC Championship game in which they nearly knocked off the mighty Colts. With another year under the belts of Ryan, sophomore quarterback Mark Sanchez, and the rest of a Jets squad still learning a lot of the playbook most of last season, New York should be a force this coming year.

Ryan’s old club, the Ravens, is another team looking like it should challenge for the division. With Steelers’ quarterback Ben Roethlisberger out for at least four weeks, the time is now for Baltimore to establish itself as the beasts of the AFC North. With the Colts, Chargers, Jets, and Ravens all clinching their respective divisions, the AFC Wild Card picture will be wide open for the Patriots, Steelers, Tennessee Titans, Houston Texans, and Miami Dolphins to all make a betting on NFL push.
