NFL
***
WEEK 5 RECAP
IMPOSING COLTS 9/4 FOR SUPER BOWL
Indianapolis has hardened in the Super Bowl betting to 9/4 after beating
San Francisco 28-3. When the best team in the NFL play the worst, play is
bound to be one-sided, but it was still an imposing performance by the
Colts, and one rightly predicted by the many bet365 customers who bet the
14.5-point line (moved to 15.5 at kick-off). After five weeks, they are the
only team that has not lost a game, having allowed only 29 points in that
time. Since 1970, only two teams have done better (Atlanta in 1977, and
Baltimore in 1971), and it would be a brave man to bet against that trend
continuing this week. In fact, we’ve already seen plenty of interest in the
Colts for their Monday night game against the Rams at the opening 13 (now
14), and that line is sure to move again nearer kick-off (Live In-Play
betting available).

New England was also well-supported last week at -2.5 (opened at +2.5),
after the Falcons QB Michael Vick was ruled out. They duly won 31-28, which
was also good news for the bet365 customers who teased the Falcons a point
to 3.5. The Pats remain at 7/1 for the title, but Philadelphia slid out to
the same price after flopping as three-point favorites at home to Dallas
(40/1 from 80/1). Other losing favorites were Houston (-3.0) and Tampa Bay
(-3.0), while Cincinnati (16/1 to 20/1) showed that they had benefited from
an easy schedule when losing their unbeaten tag to Jacksonville.

WEEK 6 PICKS
NEW YORK JETS @ BUFFALO BILLS
Live In-Play betting – Su Oct 16 – 4:15 pm EST/20:15 GMT
Last week’s pick, New York (+3.0), did us proud by beating Tampa Bay 14-12
on the road, and they again look something to bet on this week getting
three points from the Bills. After weeks of instability, the Jets turned to
veteran QB Vinny Testaverde last week, and he provided some much-needed
inspiration in offence, finishing 13-of-19 for 163 yards with an
interception. Meanwhile, their defense continued its recent strong play by
holding the Buccaneers to just four field goals. Despite the win over Miami
last week, Buffalo have yet to score a second-half touchdown, getting
limited to three field goals in five games, while their defense is having
trouble stopping the run. All in all, this makes the Jets worthy underdogs
this week.

Pick 1: New York (+3.0) @ 10/11

WASHINGTON REDSKINS @ KANSAS CITY CHIEFS
Su Oct 16 – 1:00 pm EST/17:00 GMT
Last week’s ‘under’ pick Miami @ Buffalo, fell right on the number (34
points), but this game should have no trouble staying below the 43 points.
Washington boasts one of the most underrated defensive units in the NFL,
and they will be well prepared for the Chiefs after facing the Broncos and
Seahawks over the past two weeks. Denver and Kansas City are actually quite
similar offensively, and the Skins limited the Broncos to just 21 points
last week. Their offence is less effective, scoring 20 points or less in
each of the first four games, and that’s unlikely to change here. The
Kansas defense may have taken a battering in their last game against the
vaunted Eagles offence but, before that, it had looked much improved from
last year. In fact, the ‘under’ is 3-1 in City’s first four games.

PICK 2: Washington Redskins @ Kansas City Chiefs - UNDER 43.0 POINTS @
10/11

A $50 parlay on the above two games pays out $191.34 - which includes a
bet365 bonus of 5%

NASCAR
******
STEWART LOOKS QUALITY BET AT 7/1
Sa Oct 15 – 7:00 pm EST (NBC)/23:00 GMT
As expected the Roush Racing cars dominated last week’s race in Kansas,
with a clean sweep of the top three spots, lead by race leader Mark Martin.
This week’s UAW-GM Quality 500 race is from the NASCAR capital, Charlotte,
NC, where most of the teams have their headquarters (Live betting available
via our new In-Play Console’).

While Roush Racing continues to be the team to beat at the ‘cookie cutter’
tracks, the Hendrick team has dominated at the Lowe’s Motor Speedway in
recent seasons. In particular, Jimmie Johnson (our 4/1 favorite this week),
who has won four of the last five in Charlotte including the last three in
a row. That dominance was confirmed in a recent test session on the track,
when the Hendrick team was led home by Kyle Busch (14/1), who recorded the
second fastest recorded lap time. The information gleaned from that
session, combined with their existing knowledge of the track, will make all
of them contenders again this week, including Jeff Gordon, who could be
over-priced at 16/1.

However, the driver with the fastest time during the recent test session
was Tony Stewart and, as the last driver other than Johnson to win a points
race at Charlotte, he could be something to bet on this week at a tasty
7/1. Stewart continues to drive well, and was the only non-Roush driver in
the top five last week. He leads the Nextel Cup standings by 75 points over
Ryan Newman, and this is definitely a track where he can widen that gap
some more. He would love to win here for his main sponsor, Home Depot, the
main competitor of the track’s sponsor, Lowe’s chain of improvement stores.
There’s nothing more satisfying than winning a competitor’s sponsored race,
or in this case, on their track. So, don’t expect Stewart to drive for just
a points finish this week.

UAW-GM Quality 500 Pick: Tony Stewart @ 7/1

GOLF
****
CRANE IS YOUR MICHELIN MAN AT 33/1
Th Oct 13 – 4:00 pm EST (USA)
Fr Oct 14 – 4:00 pm EST (USA)
Sa Oct 15 – 3:00 pm EST (USA)
Su Oct 16 – 3:00 pm EST (ABC)
Last week’s pick, Sergio Garcia (3rd at 25/1), would have won if he’s sunk
a few more putts and, with scoring bound to be low at this week’s Michelin
Championship on the wide-open resort courses, this week’s winner is likely
to a player with a hot flat stick. Another key to success this week will be
patience, with four balls including two amateurs expected to produce rounds
in excess of 6 hours. As one of the slowest players on Tour, that will suit
Ben Crane down to the ground, and at a standout bet365 price of 33/1 (35/1
Enhanced Win Only Odds) he must enter calculations this week. That price
looks even more attractive when you factor in his two top-20’s here in the
past three years, and the fact that he’s shown promise in pro-ams before.

The more ‘relaxed’ style of golf this week should also suit the personality
of Shigeki Maruyama, who has no course form to speak of (he’s rarely played
here), but who comes into this week in great nick. Last week’s opening 74
was his worst round in his last 16, during which period he’s posted ten
rounds in the 60’s to stand at 33 under par! That form should come as no
surprise as his three October events last year yielded finishes of 16th,
19th and 2nd (1st and 3rd in 2003). As he’s currently 35th on the Money
List, he’ll be keen to play himself into the top-30 this week to guarantee
entry into the season-closing Tour championship and, in his current form,
he looks a great each-way bet at 33/1 this week.

Another player to catch the eye this week is Carl Pettersson. Like
Maruyama, Pettersson is a late season performer, having finished in the
top-10 in no less than four of the five events to end in October last year.
He was also fourth in last month’s Deutsche Bank Championship against a
much stronger field than this, where he held the lead after 54 holes. As
one of the finest putters on Tour, he could well go low this week, and
looks worth an interest at a tasty 66/1. Don’t forget, once the first round
gets under way, we’ll have live betting via our ‘In-Play Console’, which
also includes prices on the current Round Leader.

Nigel’s Michelin Championship Three Off The Tee: Ben Crane 33/1; Shegeki
Maruyama @ 33/1; Carl Pettersson @ 66/1 (Each-way ¼ odds 1.2.3.4.5.)
