Top 3 NFL Over/Under Plays of the Week
Points were a little more plentiful in Week 2 as some of the better offenses in the league finally got it in gear. All told, nine games went ‘over’ the total line while seven games stayed ‘under’. In Week 1 the total average number of points scored in each game was 36.6. This number jumped to 41.4 points last week. The lowest scoring game of the week was Miami’s 14-10 win over Minnesota as Viking QB Brett Favre has gotten off to a slow start. The highest scoring game of the week was Philadelphia’s 35-32 win over Detroit. Eagles backup QB Michael Vick played so well in this game he earned the starting spot for the foreseeable future.
Here is a look at my top three plays on the ‘Over/Under’ line for Week 3 in the NFL. All total lines are provided by BetUS.

Atlanta Falcons @ New Orleans Saints Over/Under: 50
Atlanta’s offense finally showed up last week as the Falcons rolled over Arizona 41-7. QB Matt Ryan turned in a strong performance, completing 21-of-32 attempts for 225 yards and three TD’s. The real star of the game was backup RB Jason Snelling, who ran for 129 yards and added 57 more catching the ball.
New Orleans is 2-0 but its high powered offense has only scored 39 points in the first two games. The Saints were held to 14 points by Minnesota and 25 by San Francisco.
The total has stayed ‘under’ in seven of the Falcons last eight games. The total has stayed ‘under’ in the Saints last five games against the NFC South and in five of their last seven home games. The Pick: UNDER

Cleveland Browns @ Baltimore Ravens Over/Under: 37
Cleveland is off to another poor start and most of its problems once again revolve around the Brown’s inability to put points on the board. Seneca Wallace got the start at quarterback in last week’s 16-14 loss to Kansas City as Jake Delhomme is still recovering from an ankle injury. His status for this game is still unknown.
Baltimore’s new vertical passing attack has been stuck in neutral as the Ravens have only managed to score 20 total points in their first two games. QB Joe Flacco has completed less than 50 percent of his passes.
The total has stayed ‘under’ in six of the Browns last eight games against the AFC North. The total has stayed ‘under’ in nine of the Ravens last 12 games against teams from the AFC. The Pick: UNDER

Jacksonville averaged close to 24 points a game at home last season and won its home opener this season against Denver 24-17.
Following an ATS loss, the total has gone ‘over’ in nine of the Eagles last 13 games. The total has gone ‘over’ in four of the Jaguars last five games and in seven of their last 10 home games. The Pick: OVER
Last week’s record: 3-0 YTD: 5-1
