Football betting on Monday night should be excellent as the New England Patriots host the Denver Broncos.This NFL betting matchup will be televised on ESPN. Week 7 NFL odds have the Patriots as a field goal favorite in this football betting matchup. Football betting history shows that despite being in different divisions, the Broncos and Patriots have played each other 10 times since 1997. The Broncos have been very successful in those games, going 7-3 both straight up and against the NFL betting number. At New England, the Broncos and Patriots have met only three times during that time period with Denver winning two of the three straight up and covering all three against the number. The Patriots have not been a good team laying the points at home in recent seasons. Since 2005 they are only 40% against the pointspread as home favorites.
If you are looking at the football betting total you should know that 7 of the last 10 meetings have gone over the total. At New England though, two of the three games went under the football betting total. The Broncos have been an over team this year with quarterback Jay Cutler leading a powerful offense. The Broncos have actually gone over the total more than 60% of the time in their road games since 2005 according to football betting stats. New England has also been an over team recently, although with Tom Brady hurt, they are not nearly as potent on offense. The Patriots have gone under the football betting total at home almost 60% of the time since 2005 according to NFL betting stats.
NFL betting on the Patriots is definitely not as popular as it was last season with a healthy Tom Brady at quarterback. The Patriots can still cover the pointspread, but they are no longer a sure thing. They can now get blown out as was shown last week when San Diego routed them. The Broncos have actually been the more popular team in this season with their high powered offense. Open a New Account and start betting Denver Broncos vs. New England Patriots at SBG Global!
