Online sports betting action during the preseason is great to bet as NFL action is back. One of the keys to consider with NFL preseason sportsbetting is a coach’s record. These records can indicate whether a team is a good bet or a bad bet in online sports betting.
Online sports betting has seen a lot of changes in the NFL head coaches for 2009. There are a lot of new head coaches in the NFL and that will impact preseason sportsbetting. There are still some coaches that have been around a while though. Going against Philadelphia in online sports betting during the preseason has proven profitable over the years. Andy Reid has not been a coach that cares much about the preseason. His Philadelphia team is just 15-25 in their last 40 games. Buffalo’s Dick Jauron is another coach that does not do well in the preseason. You may want to go against the Bills in preseason online sports betting, since Jauron is 12-20 in his last 32 games in the preseason.
A couple of coaches that have done well in the preseason are Jacksonville’s Jack Del Rio and Carolina’s John Fox. You might want to look at the Jaguars and Panthers in online sports betting. Del Rio is 17-7 in his last 24 games while Fox is 18-10. Carolina could be a very nice choice in sportsbetting in the first week of the preseason as Fox is 6-1 in the first week of NFL preseason action.
As you look at online sports betting during the first week of the preseason keep in mind that underdogs and the unders are worth a look. Not much is known in the first week of the preseason except that teams will probably struggle on offense. Did you know that the average point total since 2000 in Week 1 games is 34.4 in online sports betting? That means all of the unders are worth a serious look in online sports betting for Week #1 of the preseason. The sportsbetting totals go up a bit in Week 2 at the sports book as teams are better prepared offensively after another week of work. Week 2 games have averaged 36.8 points per game which is more than 2 points than in Week 1. Week 3 the online sports betting totals go up about another 2 points as teams start to play more to form.
Week 4 of the preseason is a mess as most starters don’t play long and it is a guessing game in online sports betting.
