The NFL Lines – Week 5
After four weeks we’re down to three unbeaten teams (the Texans, Falcons and Cardinals) and only two teams without a win (the Browns and incredibly, the Saints). CB The real refs came back last week… and spent most of the Saints-Packers game screwing over the home side, along with my bet on the minus. I’m […]
The NFL Lines – Week 4
The Niners lost for the first time in 2012, the Saints keep on losing and the refereeing (hopefully) reached its nadir in the Seahawks-Packers Monday Night Football game. With the contenders and pretenders slowly identifying themselves, Nick Tedeschi and Cliff Bingham jump into their preview of week four. CB I’d go for a lengthy preamble […]
The NFL Lines – Week 3
After two weeks of NFL action we have only six teams without a win and six more sitting undefeated at 2-0, suggesting that parity has been the order of the day thus far. Will the 2012 haves and have nots announce themselves in the third week of action? Nick Tedeschi and Cliff Bingham assess the […]
The NFL Lines – Week 2
The Cowboys, Redskins and Niners caused upsets, the Browns lost in a heartbreaking manner befitting a Cleveland sporting organisation, and Peyton Manning made those who had concerns about his health (team Making The Nut included) eat humble pie for a few solid days. How much has one week of action changed the landscape? Nick Tedeschi […]

[…]

AFC East NT This division isn't as cut-and-dried as the market would have you believe. The New England Patriots are unquestionably the testing material – they have claimed […]
The NFL Lines – Super Bowl
Here we are one more time at the big dance. Super Bowls rarely provide a sense of déjà vu (unless you were a Buffalo fan in the early 1990s) but history has repeated rather promptly this time around, with New England and the New York Giants squaring off in a replay of their 2008 showdown. […]
The NFL Lines – Conference Championships
The divisional playoff round saw the reigning favourite and second favourite for the Super Bowl find only the ‘exit stage right’ sign, while Tebow Mania may lose a little steam until around July or August next year. The Conference Championship deciders are settled – Baltimore travel to Foxboro to take on Tom Brady and the […]
The NFL Lines – Divisional Playoffs
The battle of rookie QBs was one-way traffic as the Texans advanced. Drew Brees and the Saints did their thing in their house. The Giants kept their late-season surge (especially on the defensive side of the ball) rolling, while Tim Tebow did Tebow things and defied oddsmakers once again. These four teams hit the road […]
