NFL Handicapping – Perfection Reflection

NFL Handicapping – 10-0 Week 2 was a historic week for @FairwayJay

Week 2 of the NFL season invariably brings back great memories, as I’m reminded by clients and ‘Fairway Followers’ about my good fortune in week 2 of the 2009 season. At that time I was a regular guest on a weekly radio show in Las Vegas providing insight and analysis, and heard nationwide on SiriusXM Radio for NFL handicapping and betting discussion.

That particular week, I released the biggest NFL selection card of my professional handicapping career spanning over a decade. I bet and provided personal clients 10 NFL selections in week 2 and went a perfect 10-0!! I also provided and posted publicly a written analysis for every game on the NFL card that week.

Saints (-1)…Win 48-22
Rams (+9.5)…Win 7-9
NY Jets (+3.5)…Win 16-9
NY Jets/Patriots under 45.5…Win 16-9
Falcons (–6)…Win 28-20
Raiders (+3)…Win 13-10
Bengals (+9)…Win 31-24
49ers (-1)…Win 23-10
Bears (+3)…Win 17-14
Chargers/Ravens over 40…Win 31-26

Week 1 of the 2013 and 2014 seasons was a difficult one for many sports bettors.  Underdogs ruled the day this past Sunday going 10-3 ATS and finishing the week 11-5 on the closing lines.  Early NY Jets bettors won and late bettors lost and early Bronco’s bettors pushed and late bettors took a tough loss.   While many of the results seem surprising and the sports books cleaned up on a majority of bettors, don’t be surprised when some of the week 1 ugly teams and performances turn around in week 2 and again in week 3.  History shows that week 2 invariably provides more surprises and upsets, along with some focused and determined efforts as teams try to avoid going 0-2.

This week there are three games in which winless teams (0-1) are matched-up and also three games in which undefeated teams (1-0) are playing.  The defenses figure to bring a focused and stronger effort in the winless teams match-ups and last year there were five winless team match-ups in week 2 and the over/under results were 2-3 with both division match-ups of winless teams going under the total.  No such division match-ups of winless teams this year in week 2, but don’t be surprised when more upsets occur.

We’ve already identified some solid situations and match-ups to support in week 2 as we shoot for more birdies and green on the gridiron.  Join me as we shoot for another perfect weekend and profit from my experience.
