There are four different NFL late afternoon starts, opening up numerous wagering opportunities for those looking to capitalize. The big game is in Denver where two 3-1 teams meet, the Buccaneers and Broncos. 90% of the money as of Friday was on the hosts, but that could change before the 4:05 PM ET kickoff. Be sure to check the latest numbers on this game and the three other before putting your money down. Here’s a quick look at the Tampa-Denver and Buffalo-Arizona games.
(421) TAMPA BAY at (422) DENVER
Denver’s defensive ineptitude finally cost the team a game last week, and it was an embarrassing one. The Broncos yielded 370 yards and 33 points to a Chiefs team that had lost 12 straight contests and mustered just 30 points in its prior three games of ’08. For ‘08, the Broncos are a respectable 3-1, but are now just a game ahead of San Diego in the AFC West and still yielding more than 412 yards per game defensively. Here they’ll play as a 4-point opening line favorite against a Tampa Bay team that shares the same won-lost mark. From a trend perspective, the Bucs have a couple of edges: TAMPA BAY is 16-5 ATS in its L21 games vs. excellent passing teams averaging >=7.5 passing yards/attempt. Plus, Denver is just 6-18 ATS in its L24 games as a favorite.
(425) BUFFALO at (426) ARIZONA
Buffalo is one of just two teams that are 4-0 at this point in the NFL season, and the Bills look to head into their bye week with a 5th straight win, this time at Arizona. However, a win would be the franchise’s first pre-bye week outright victory in 10 years. They are 2-6-1 ATS in that span. Other angles point well to HC Dick Jauron’s team though, who is 11-2 ATS in its L13 games versus excellent passing teams averaging >= 7.5 yards per pass attempt. The Bills are also on a run of 17-4 ATS against the NFC West Division. The Cardinals have lost back-to-back games after starting 2-0. They allowed 56 points to the Jets and 80 in the last two weeks overall, the most in a two-game span since ’02. Arizona is 4-1 SU & 5-0 ATS vs. the AFC under Ken Whisenhunt.
