Brady Injury and Bears-Colts Has Bookmakers Trembling

It‘s already been a huge day for sportsbooks all over the world as nothing will affect the NFL odds more than Tom Brady’s injury status. “The New England Patriots will not go to the playoffs with Matt Cassel as their quarterback.

But the most immediate story is the huge NFL pick on tonight’s Chicago Bears and Indianapolis Colts game from the LateInfo line.

Our West Coast Source is the most well connected pro bettor in the world when it comes to “local” sharp bets across the country. Because of recent backward legislation, a large percentage of sharp info is being placed with outlaw books and below the Vegas and offshore sportsbooks radar screen, but not below our West Coast Source.  

The LateInfo Line is now another part of OffshoreInsiders.  You remember them from their Freescoreboard scorephone days where they were documented over 85 percent with these rare plays. Get the Bears/Colts from the West Coast Source. Click now to purchase

Did you watch the games online or via the NFL Sunday Ticket? Either way, yet again it’s a windfall for NFL bettors as GodsTips is 5-1 this week including a sweep of Wise Guy plays. Pittsburgh crushing the Houston Texans and Philadelphia humiliating the St. Louis Rams were the two biggest blowouts early.

That was no shock as the two Wise Guy plays from GodsTips were the Eagles and Steelers. Oh, they also had the Falcons over the Lions and the Titans-Jaguars under. That makes them 15-6 this week in football, already clinching winning week 5-of-6 since NFL preseason picks commenced.

If the NFL scores have you down money, all we can say is that’s what you get when you don’t ride the world’s best sports handicappers.

Cowboys-Browns

Most key indicators agree that Browns running back Jamal Lewis is a game time decision. Derek Anderson is the starting QB for Cleveland even though he missed two preseason games with a concussion. Braylon Edwards returns to the line-up for the Browns at WR.

The Pokes have the best opening day record straight up in the NFL at 32-15-1. Cleveland has lost their last three season opening games. However, they enter on a seven game winning streak straight up in the new dog pound. This is one of three NFL Wise Guys from the top sports handicapper in the business at GodsTips.

Panthers-Chargers

Both quarterbacks Jake Delhomme and Philip Rivers will be tested coming off injuries. So will Chargers tight end Antonio Gates. San Diego has won 10-of-12 games straight up entering this season, while Carolina lost 7-of-10.

The Panthers clearly though are better with Delhomme healthy. Since the last game of the 2006 season, his QB rating is 116.1.

Ditto for the Chargers being better with Philip Rivers at QB. They are 25-7 straight up with him including a stunning 15-1 at home.

Cardinals-49ers

Mike Martz is the new offensive coordinator for San Francisco and J.T. O’Sullivan the new QB.

Bears-Colts

The Colts open a new stadium and they’ve won five straight home openers. Kyle Orton gets the nod a QB for the Bears. They are a surprising 12-6 straight up with Orton starting.
