Wednesday Gambler’s Report

There’s no football of note on Wednesday, so sports fans will instead have to settle for the dwindling days of the baseball regular season. Here’s your Daily Sports Roundup.

The Gridiron Spotlight

Matt Millen has finally been fired as Lions GM, while Plaxico Burress has been suspended by the NY Giants for insubordination. Cy McCormick of MasterLockLine.com said for the high risk, high return bettors, investing on Detroit +3500 to win the NFC North wouldn’t be that crazy considering how weak the division is and that the Millen firing will wake up his former team.  

The biggest surprise of the NFL season so far? It just might be the play of the Bills, who sit alone atop the AFC East with a 3-0 record; Buffalo has moved from 60/1 to 18/1 odds on the Vegas Super Bowl futures list. The new title favorites are the Cowboys, who are at 3/1, with the Colts at 6/1, and the Chargers at 8/1. The Patriots opened as the 5/2 Super Bowl favorites, but their early-season issues have dropped them to 15/1.

RIP former NY Giants safety Dick Lynch. Brian Gould of ScoresOddsPicks.com says “Lynch has a heck of a player and announcer.”

The battle for the AL Central crown heats up on Tuesday, and those that don’t care about baseball will be reviewing Week 4 NFL lines. Here’s your Daily Sports Roundup.

The Gridiron Spotlight

The Cowboys are now the favorites to win the Super Bowl at many sportsbooks, thanks to their strong start to the season and the middling-to-poor results so far for the Patriots, Colts, and Chargers. Dallas will look to stay unbeaten this weekend when they host the Redskins; the line on that game opened with the Cowboys favored by 10.5 points.

There are just five other unbeaten teams around the league heading into Week 4: Buffalo, Baltimore, Tennessee, Denver, and the Giants. The Bills opened as 9.5-point road favorites against the Rams, while the Titans were set as 3-point home favorites versus the Vikings, and the Broncos as 9.5-point road favorites against the Chiefs. The Giants have a bye in Week 4, and the Ravens will play in Pittsburgh on Monday night.

OffshoreInsiders.com is officially calling for boycotting Idaho Vandals football games now that they are insisting that their cheerleaders wear less revealing uniforms.
