Coming off a 2009 season in which the Bills went 6-10 with a -68 point differential, Vegas has set the 2010 Regular season win total for the Bills at 5.5. The Bills were 30th in offense and 19th in defense. Pinnacle has the under at -140 and Bodog has the under at -150 so the early bettors are shorting the Bills hard. Will the coaching change from Dick Jauron to Chan Gailey breathe new life into the franchise or will the lack of firepower on offense doom them? The Bookbeater likes the under.

The Pete Carroll era begins in Seattle after he left a very successful college coaching career at Southern Cal for another shot at the NFL. Carroll has some unfinished business following his first stint as a pro football head coach with the New York Jets and New England Patriots, posting a 33-31 record in four seasons between the teams and a winning record against the NFL line. The guy who immediately followed him in New England just happened to be former Jets defensive coordinator Bill Belichick, who went on to win three Super Bowls with the Patriots. This time around, Carroll inherits a squad that has a unique blend of youth and experience. Five years removed from their one and only Super Bowl appearance, the Seahawks still have veteran QB Matt Hasselbeck leading the offense designed by new offensive coordinator Jeremy Bates, who has been working hard to develop 2009 free-agent WR signee T.J. Houshmandzadeh and former USC great Mike Williams as his top targets.

The Carolina Panthers will be going through a transition phase this season after losing two of their most notable players over the last decade. Gone are former starting QB Jake Delhomme (Cleveland Browns) and DE Julius Peppers (Chicago Bears) from a team that played in Super Bowl XXXVIII a little less than seven years ago. Carolina head coach John Fox remains to try to re-build around the NFL’s third-best running game, led by two returning 1,000-yard rushers in Jonathan Stewart and DeAngelo Williams. To help their chances against the NFL spreads, Fox will turn to third-year QB Matt Moore to replace Delhomme while rookie Jimmy Clausen learns behind him. Because Stewart and Williams can dominate by running the ball, Moore will not have a lot of pressure on him right away. But that could change down the line if the Panthers struggle and with Clausen breathing down his neck.

After a 2009 season in which the Bears went 7-9 with a -48 point differential, the 2010 Regular season win total has been set at 8. It seems like Vegas has set this number properly because they are getting roughly the same amount on both sides. Bodog has the over at -120 while Bookmaker has the under at -120. A bookmaker’s dream because he’ll collect his vig without risk but a tough call for a bettor. The Bookbeater would play the under if he had to but would likely pass.

After a 2009 season in which the Bengals went 10-6 with a +14 point differential, Vegas has set the 2010 Regular season win total at 8. The bookmakers seem to be getting roughly the same amount of early betting on the over -110 on Bodog and the under -114 on Pinnacle. The 2009 season was a pleasant surprise for Bengal fans in that they won the AFC North. The offense was 24th in the NFL while the defense was 4th. Defensive guru Marvin Lewis finally got the Bengals to stop teams and the emergence of RB Cedric Benson added toughness to the offense. While the Bengals had a strong off-season the brutal schedule has the Bookbeater thinking under.

The Buffalo Bills look to move past the Terrell Owens circus from a year ago and regain some kind of offensive identity under new head coach Chan Gailey. The Bills saw 11 different players start on the offensive line last year while three different quarterbacks took snaps and two different running backs were featured. these contributed to the Bills not doing well against the NFL football point spread. Gailey has already tabbed Trent Edwards as the team’s starting QB heading into this season, and rookie RB C.J. Spiller finally made it to practice after he avoided becoming the last first-round pick to sign his contract. Spiller figures to be an integral part of the offense once he gets familiar with the playbook and hopes to become the team’s most exciting running back since Thurman Thomas. There will be several more position battles throughout training camp for a team that finished just 6-10 last season, but that should only help the team bond under Gailey and become a tighter unit by the time the regular season begins.

Both the Dallas Cowboys and Cincinnati Bengals have motivational factors working in their favor for Sunday’s NFL Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio. But only the Bengals who are 3 point favorites according to the current NFL betting odds will have their edge playing for them on the football field in the form of former Dallas WR Terrell Owens and CB Adam “Pacman” Jones. Of course Owens and Jones may not play long in the preseason opener, but you can bet they will be extra pumped to prove themselves in front of their former team.
