New York Giants v San Francisco 49ers Betting Preview
This is the eighth post season match up between these two famous old franchises but it’s the first time that the 49ers have made the post-season in nine years, they are taking advantage of playing at home with their mightily impressive defeat of the 2009 Champions New Orleans whilst New York were even more impressive [...]
Baltimore Ravens v New England Patriots Betting Preview
The Baltimore Ravens fly into Foxborough for the AFC Championship game against Bill Belichik’s Patriots with the plan being to stop the Patriots red hot offence with their immovable defence, if their plan A fails we don’t think they will have a plan B. Plan B would involve Joe Flacco trying to out pass, out [...]
New York Giants @ Green Bay Packers Betting Preview
An 9-7 franchise really shouldn’t be able to travel to the National Football Leagues No.1 side who have a 15-1 record and of course are the defending Superbowl Champions but if this season has been able to teach us anything about the 2011 New York Giants it is that they are very, very difficult to [...]
Houston Texans @ Baltimore Ravens Betting Preview
The AFC South Champion Texans travel their AFC North Division counterparts Baltimore with a place in the Championship game next week, Houston would normally be very confident about a game against fellow American Conference opposition with their 8-4 regular season AFC record but this isn’t a normal inter-conference game and Baltimore have a 9-3 record [...]
Denver Broncos V New England Patriots Betting Preview
It’s Tebow time again and this week the show moves to New England to face his toughest challenge yet against Tom Brady’s Patriots, Tim’s overtime pass to Demaryius Thomas in stride with just 11 seconds gone in the fifth quarter that paved the way for the Broncos to make the trip to Foxborough Stadium and [...]
New Orleans Saints V San Francisco 49ers Betting Preview
Both sides are just two match-ups away from the greatest show on turf and both have their respective 13-3 regular season records to give them the confidence to think they can go all the way this year. Of course all of us expected the 2009 Superbowl winning Saints to be in the play-off mix but [...]

Denver Broncos V Pittsburgh Steelers Betting Preview
The Pittsburgh Steelers and Ben Roethlisberger head into the postseason with the usual problems, Ben banged up nursing a severely sprained left ankle and Rashard Mendenhall out.

Saint Louis Rams (2-10) @ Seattle Seahawks (5-7) Betting Preview
A God awful season by any standards is being endured by all the players, staff and fans of St. Louis this year after a 4-0 pre-season has been completely derailed by this 2-10 regular season which shows no sign of any improvement at all, their failure is being compounded by health problems for the most [...]
New York Giants (6-6) @ Dallas Cowboys (7-5) Betting Preview
This is the most important game of the season for these two sides as it would virtually decide the destination of the NFC East divisional title for 2011 as divisional counterparts Eagles and Redskins continue to suck.
