FiveStarPick.com has analyzed Week 17 in the NFL and will give its members the winner of 4 games in today’s lineup.  The focus of today’s preview is the much anticipated re-match of two teams that absolutely hate each other.  Las Vegas sportsbooks list the New York Jets (9-6 Straight Up, 7-8 Against The Spread) as 3-point favorites with the total set at 43.

The Miami Dolphins (10-5 SU, 7-8 ATS) has won eight of their last nine games, but are just 4-5 ATS.  Miami beat Kansas City last week 38-31 and cashed for bettors as a 3.5-point road favorite.  Pennington completed 26-of-34 through the air for 235 yards and 3 TDs.

The Jets have lost 3 of their last 4 games including a 10-3 loss on the road in Seattle which cost many bettors thousands.  After all, this is the same Jets team that went on a five-game winning streak capped by incredible road wins at New England and at Tennessee.  So, to keep their playoff hopes alive, New York has to beat Miami and hope that Buffalo knocks off New England in order to win the AFC East.

Miami linebacker Channing Crowder (knee) and cornerback Will Allen (groin) missed practice Wednesday and were limited on Thursday. Both are “questionable” and will most likely be game-time decisions. Crowder, who has 105 tackles for the season, missed last week’s win at KC.

Now let’s talk trends…The ‘Fins have been great on the road, going 5-2 both SU and ATS. Likewise, the Jets are 5-2 both SU and ATS at home.  The Jets have dominated this rivalry over the last decade.  New York owns a 20-4-2 spread record against the ‘Fins in their last 26 head-to-head meetings.  When these clubs met in Week 1, the Jets captured a 20-14 win as three-point road favorites.  The ‘under’ is 9-6 overall for Miami, but the ‘over’ is 4-3 in its road assignments. The Jets have watched the ‘over’ go 8-6-1 overall, 5-2 in their home games.

So who covers the spread in today’s game?  This game is way too close to call.  But why not let FiveStarPick.com help you make money on other games in the NFL today?  Aren’t you tired of getting cold called by services that tell you about their 750,000 star play that’s a guaranteed winner. Here is a bit of advice…NOTHING is guaranteed when you are betting on sports.  These so called “handicappers” call 500 people on a Saturday morning and give them all a free play; 250 people will get the Jets -3 and 250 will get the Dolphins +3.  After the game ends, they call back the 250 people who won and pitch them on charging thousands of dollars to their credit cards for more guaranteed winners.   We are not your typical sports handicapping service.  We care about our members and we live and die on every play. Why?  Because we are moving thousands of dollars of our own money on the same plays we give you. Gambling on sports is how we make our living.  Do we win every play?  Absolutely not and we will never pretend to.  Our plays are always posted for all to see, including our losing streaks. But by the end of the year we always seem to have a few hundred thousand dollars of the sportsbook’s money in our casino account.  Let us try and do the same for you.  Join our family of winners today and start your winning streak tonight.

Well…a very uncharacteristic Sunday in the halls of FiveStarPick.com.  Many of our clients lost a few dimes yesterday after a 1-4-1 performance and unfortunatley so did we, but friends, we have to move on!  Let’s start channeling our feelings from the 15 wins in a row we had last week and look forward to a few solid wins tonight.

Las Vegas sportsbooks list Philadelphia (7-5-1 straight up, 8-5 against the spread) as a 15 ½-point favorites tonight with the total set at 39. Gamblers can back the Browns to win on the money line at +700 (risk $100 to win $700).

Cleveland’s (4-9 SU, 6-6-1 ATS) season started with high expectations and since has turned to disaster. The Browns are down to 3rd-string quarterback Ken Dorsey after Derek Anderson and Brady Quinn both went on injured reserve.  In Dorsey’sfirst start since 2005 last week, Cleveland lost 28-9 at Tennessee last week.  The loss was Cleveland’s third straight and their fifth in the last six games. Dorsey struggled, connecting on only 22-43 passes for 150 yards and 1 INT.

Philadelphia crushed Arizona 2 weeks ago, 48-20, as a 3-point home favorite. One week after being benched, McNabb threw 4 touchdown passes against the Cardinals.  Then last week, the Eagles ended the Giants’ 7-game winning as a 6 ½-point underdog.  Brian Westbrook ran for 131 yards and had 6 catches for 72 yards. McNabb has thrown 5 TD passes and no interceptions since being benched.

FiveStarPick is closing in on another 400 win season as we give our members the winners of 5 NFL games today.  As we near the NFL Playoffs and the 2008 College Football Bowl Season, it is imperative that you look to FiveStarPick.com for advice on how to play these games.  Today we will preview tonight’s Sunday Night NFL matchup between the New York Giants and the Dallas Cowboys.  Las Vegas sportsbooks have listed the Cowboys as 3-point home favorites with the total set at 45. 

The New York football Giants (11-2 straight up, 10-3 against the spread) broke a 7-game home winning streak last week losing 20-14 to their division rival, the Philadelphia Eagles.  There are a lot of issues to overcome right now for the Giants including the Plaxico Burress shooting and the loss of their No. 1 running back, Brandon Jacobs.

The Cowboys (8-5 SU, 6-7 ATS) have a bunch of problems of their own.  You knew it wouldn’t be long before WR Terrell Owens became “TO,” his alter ego.  This time he set his sites on his quarterback Tony Romo.  Which is weird because we were still feeling so touched by his, “That’s my quarterback…That’s my teamate” sobfest.  Owens told the Dallas Mourning News, “I’m not jealous of Witten. I’m not jealous of nobody… I just talked to Jason about Tony reading the whole play because other people are open besides Witten.”  Dude… 

The Giants have the No. 1 rushing attack (154.6 YPG) in the NFL and are ranked second in time of possession.  These type of stats have led New York to an 8-2 ATS mark in their last 10 games. The Giants have been installed as underdogs only twice this season…first against Philadelphia and last against Pittsburgh.  The main reason for the dog slate tonight is that New York will be without their workhorse RB Brandon Jacobs.  That means Derrick Ward will move to the No. 1 spot on the depth chart against a Cowboy defense that’s giving up 93.9 YPG on the ground.

The Cowboys, however, aren’t without injury.  CB Adam “Pac Man” Jones will miss the rest of the season after being diagnosed with a bulging disk in his neck, RB Marion Barber has been downgraded to ‘questionable’ with a tow injury and wide out Roy Williams is listed as ‘probable’.

Dallas lost to Pittsburgh last week, 20-13 after the Steelers scored 2 touchdowns in 24 seconds during the final moments of the fourth quarter.  Romo threw a pick six to Pittsburgh’s Deshea Townsend which sealed their fate in a very difficult loss.  Since Romo’s return, they are 2-1 and neither of their two wins came against teams that were any good.

The G-Men have been impeccable at covering the spread in almost every conceivable category. New York is 5-1 ATS on the road, 2-0 ATS on turf, 8-1 ATS in its conference and 4-1 ATS in its own division.  The Giants are 14-2 ATS in their last 16 versus a team with a winning record and are 22-6 ATS in their last 28 road games. Dallas enters Sunday night with a 1-7 ATS record in its last eight versus NFC East opponents. Since their last playoff win back in 1996, the Cowboys are 18-32 in December and January football combined.

The 2008 College and Pro football season is nearing a close.  Don’t miss out on another FiveStarPick.com win streak in both the College Football Bowls and the NFL Playoffs.  Winning at sports gambling is not easy…you owe it to yourself to get an edge and join the over 2300 FiveStarPick.com members who are collecting this year from their bookies.  Ok, ok…enough with the sales pitch.  Read below for a preview of tonight’s matchup between the New Orleans Saints and the Chicago Bears. 

Las Vegas sports books have listed Chicago as 3-point home favorites with the total set at 46.  New Orleans (7-6 straight up, 9-4 against the spread) has a wining record, but finds itself in the cellar of the NFC South with a 1-5 SU and 3-3 ATS road record. The Saints have to win two of their final three games to have any shot at making the postseason.  New Orleans outlasted NFC South rival Atlanta last weekend as a three-point home favorite, 29-25. The combined 54 points went over the 51-point closing total.  The Saints were trailing before outscoring the Falcons in the fourth quarter, 13-8.

Chicago (7-6 SU, 6-6 ATS) is one game out of the NFC North lead, and still has a realistic shot of winning the division. The Bears are 4-2 SU and 3-3 ATS at home and the over has gone 4-2 in those 6 games.  Chicago upended Jacksonville last weekend as a 6.5-point home favorite, 23-10. The combined 33 points cashed the under for bettors and never seriously threatened the 40-point closing total.

Chicago is 3-0 SU and 2-0-1 ATS in their three previous outings with New Orleans after prevailing last season as a home pick’em, 33-25.  The Bears and Saints met on this field during the 2006-07 postseason, with Chicago rolling in the NFC Championship Game as a three-point home favorite, 39-14. The combined 53 points in that matchup cashed the over 43 for bettors.
