Tampa Bay Buccaneers Miami Dolphins Free NFL Betting Pick
The NFL preseason began in earnest on Thursday night and continues this weekend as the 32 franchises shake off the rust and do battle in a series of exhibition games that are anything but meaningless for those of us who love to bet on football in general and savor NFL betting in particular.
We have enlisted the assistance of world class sports handicappers at Mycapper.com, an online handicapping service that has started to make a name for itself in the cut throat world of sports tipping. Their free NFL pick for our readers is for Saturday night's contest between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers who were absolutely awful last season and can only improve in 2010, and the Miami Dolphins who are coached with innovation and threaten to make the playoffs this season if all is well. It promises to be a very competitive game and one where a shrewd bet could net a healthy profit.
Free NFL Pick Selection: Tampa Bay at Miami - Bet on the UNDER for total points
Analysis from Mycapper.com: The oddsmakers are setting all their Week 1 totals in a narrow band between 33 and 35 points, but it doesn't make a difference to us because NFL Week 1 preseason games go Under more often than not. This rule of thumb is particularly true for games between two teams that are thin on top and who have depth issues. Like the Bucs and the Dolphins. Our data for this game suggests that these two teams will do well to combine for 28 total points. At 33.5 points the UNDER is a solid play to cash in a golden ticket on Saturday.
The Dolphins went UNDER in 3 of 4 games last season. These two teams met last season in a 10-6 snooze-fest. Just take the Under.
Well that was certainly said with a lot of authority and is hard to argue with! So enjoy NFL betting at a variety of Canadian-friendly online sports books (basically all of them) and check back with us next week for more complimentary betting tips.
