The Wizard of Odds

By Robby Wellington – Staff Writer

This week I’m going with the Colts (-9 at home against the Redskins) and the Seahawks (-7 at home against the Vikings) teased 6.5 each. The Colts should roll, and the Seahawks have one of the best homefield advantages in the league. As far as straight bets go, I kind of like the Cardinals (-3 at Oakland) to bounce back and Cincinnati (-3 at home against Carolina) to easily win an important game.

Also, be sure to check out our new sponsor, Pinnacle Sports. Pinnacle Sports has the best odds of any sportsbook, offering 4% vig on football bets, as opposed to the standard 10% juice from most sites and gives an extra half point on teasers (10/11 odds on 6.5 teasers). Pinnacle Sports also offers more spreads earlier than any other site I’ve seen. Within hours of teams completing their games on Sunday, spreads and moneylines are already up for the next week, and the site offers moneylines on all games, regardless of how big or small the spread is. So ya, if you wager online, be sure to check them out, there’s really no better way to go.
