NFL Week 1- Big Upsets and Injuires what does it mean? by Craig Trapp

Wow what a week last week. Who would have thought that Brady would be lost for the year, the bengals offense scores 3 points, the browns score a total of 10 pts, Colts lose bad to Chicago at home, and SanDiego loses to Carolina at home. Just shows you that if the NFL is one thing it is unpredictable. The big thing is to take what we learned and to apply it to make money!!

Hopefully we can help you sort out what some of these surprises mean for this week. Lets remember last year there were similar early season issues that many good teams overcame. First last year remember that the SD chargers started very slow before coming on to finish 2nd in the AFC to the powerful Patriots. Also remember that great QB's go down every year and the good franchises seem to overcome this every time. Tom Brady was a backup to Bledsoe at one time and he got a chance to shine once he was injureed. Also two years ago MCnabb went down only to have Garcia lead them to the playoffs. Don't be shocked if Castle still leads the Pats to win 10-12 games and win homefield advantage for 1st round game.

Don't jump off the top of the sky scraper just yet if one of your favorite teams have key injuries or looked bad first week. Stay on board for one more week at least. Why is this imortant when it comes to wagering??? Well several of these teams will be underdogs or barely favorites because of one bad game. What we all look for in wagering is VALUE. This week there are several Value plays that are very tempting. Full wright ups and picks will be available on thursday. Enjoy this week and can't wait for Sunday!!
