Monday's betting tips: Bettors pounding Patriots

Weather to watch

Meteorologists were predicting warm temperatures and a chance of thunderstorms for Monday’s Patriots-Dolphins game as of Sunday night. The chance of rain was listed at 60 percent with winds between 8-10 mph.

Who’s hot

NFL: The over is 16-5 in New England’s last 21 games overall.

NFL: Oakland has covered in eight of its last 10 meetings with Denver.

MLB: Tampa Bay has won 21 of its last 27 games as a favorite.

MLB: Atlanta has won eight of its last nine meetings with Florida.

Who’s not

NFL: Miami has covered just 17 of its last 63 home games.

NFL: The under is 0-8 in the last eight games in which Denver has been favored.

MLB: Pittsburgh has won just eight of its last 28 home games.

MLB: The Chicago Cubs are 3-7 in their last 10 road games.

Key stat

3 – After all the hullabaloo over the NFL’s new kickoff rule that many figured would cut down on long returns, there were three kickoff returns for touchdowns on opening Sunday, the most since 1998.

Injuries that shouldn’t be overlooked

Daniel Thomas, Miami Dolphins – Thomas is currently listed as questionable for Monday’s game against the Patriots with a hamstring injury, but told reporters on Sunday he expected to go, and handle red-zone carries. The club brought back veteran Larry Johnson last week in case Thomas can’t start.

Travis Hafner, Cleveland Indians – Hafner returned to the lineup Sunday for the Indians after being on the shelf since the middle of August with a strained right foot. He batted cleanup as the club’s DH in Sunday’s win over the White Sox and went 1-for-4 with a walk.

Game of the day

New England Patriots at Miami Dolphins (+7.5, 45.5)

Notable quotable

"Everybody knows that the Raiders are built on speed, size and speed, That's just the Raiders. So, they're going to have the fastest guys on the field. But when it comes to (the Broncos) being on the field, it's all about discipline. I think that's one thing that we have. Now it's just time for us to go out there and show it." - Denver linebacker Joe Mays.

Notes and tips

Bettors are jumping all over the New England Patriots as they get set to open their season Monday night in Miami. As of Sunday night, more than 77 percent of *********** Consensus bettors were backing the Pats, who are now set around -7.5. The road team has covered in six of the last eight matchups between these two teams.

After it looked as though the MLB playoff races were all but decided last week, the action over the weekend changed a lot. The Tampa Bay Rays pulled off a sweep of the Red Sox to move within 3 ½ games of Boston in the AL Wild Card race and are set as a -125 favorite on the road as they open a series with the Orioles. In the NL, St. Louis swept Atlanta to pull within 4 ½ games of the Braves for the wild card. St. Louis is a -135 favorite at Pittsburgh Monday.

The San Diego Chargers pulled off a big comeback win Sunday against the Vikings but couldn’t get their supporters to the pay window as 9-point favorites. After the game they learned that they have lost defensive end Luis Castillo (broken leg) and kicker Nate Kaeding (torn ACL) for the season. The Chargers face a stiff test in Week 2 as they head to Foxboro for a date with the Patriots.

Armadillo: Monday's six-pack

-- Rays swept Red Sox, are now only 3.5 games behind Boston; lot of rumors the Red Sox may trade for a pitcher for the next two weeks.

-- Phillies lost in Milwaukee, their first loss in Vance Worley's last 15 starts. Interesting if they'll start Worley or Oswalt in the playoffs.

-- Doug Fister has been awesome for Detroit, as the Tigers run away in the AL Central. Leyland's team will be tough in the playoffs.

-- Arizona had its 15-game home winning streak snapped by the Padres and Wade Leblanc- Snakes are looking awful good to make playoffs.

-- Colorado got Alex White/Drew Pomeranz for Ubaldo Jimenez; in his debut Sunday, Pomeranz blanked the Reds for five innings.

-- Steve Strasburg got thru five innings on 57 pitches in his 2011 debut Tuesday; he only lasted three innings (56 PT) in his second start, but he also gave up just one run. If he stays healthy, he's a big star.


**********************


Armadillo: Monday's List of 13: Wrapping up an NFL Sunday........

13) Anyone who thinks Tony Romo is an elite QB, think again; fumbles on the 2-yard line with a 24-17 lead, when a FG seals the deal, then tosses an INT in the last minute of a tie game. How many big games has the guy won? One? He's a guy with a catchy name playing on a popular team. In no way is he an elite NFL quarterback.

12) NBC tells us that Cowboys were 241-0-1 all-time in games where they led by 14+ points in the fourth quarter. Make that 241-1-1.

11) Cam Newton's NFL debut: 24-37/422 yards with two TD's. Carolina lost the game, but Panther fans have to be very fired up about Newton-- he is the first QB ever to pass for 400+ yards in his NFL debut.

10) Chargers came from behind to beat Minnesota, but they lost kicker Nate Kaeding for the season with a torn ACL. He got hurt on the opening kickoff, when Percy Harvin ran it back all the way for a Viking TD.

9) NFC South went 0-4 this week, first time that division has done that since Week 16 of the 2007 season.

8) Colts only had three WRs in uniform Sunday, which is OK, since they don't have a decent QB to throw them the ball anyway. Colts might think about bringing David Garrard in for a tryout this week, no?

7) On the average, these teams have the most expensive tickets in NFL: Jets $120.85, Patriots $117.84, Giants $111.69, Cowboys $110.20, Bears $101.55.

6) On the average, these teams have the least expensive tickets in NFL: Browns $54.20, Bills $59.19, Jaguars $59.54, Raiders $62.23, Lions $62.40.

5) Lions' QB Matthew Stafford was a catcher in high school; one of the pitchers on his team was the Dodgers' ace Clayton Kershaw.

4) Over the last 13 seasons, Super Bowl losers are now 0-13 against the spread in their opener the next season; Super Bowl winners are 9-2-2 vs spread in their last 13 openers the next season.

3) Detroit was impressive in outgaining Tampa Bay 431-313, but in the first quarter, they outgained the Bucs 143-4 and were losing, 10-6. Nine of Tampa Bay's 11 drives started at their 20 or worse field position.

2) Over the first 14 NFL games this weekend, teams started 166 drives at their own 20 or worse field position, and scored a total of 209 points, an average of 1.26 yards per drive. Thats 5.9 drives per team, which is more than in the past, because of the new kickoff rule. Coaches tend to be a lot more conservative when they're in the shadow of their own goalposts, so will the new rule increase or reduce scoring?

1) If a team is backed up inside its own 20 and doesn't get a first down, and believe me, coaches are nervous inside their own 20, very afraid of committing a turnover, then the other team gets decent field position on the ensuing possession. To get a high scoring game, you need either lot of turnovers or short scoring drives. This will be interesting to track.

Interestingly, over is 11-2-1 this week, in part because of an awful lot of touchdowns on defense/special teams (13 by my count). Favorites were 5-8-1 vs spread, home sides are 6-7-1.

Monday's streaking and slumping starting pitchers
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Streaking

Felix Hernandez, Seattle Mariners (14-11, 3.15 ERA)

King Felix is on another one of his hot streaks, having won each of his last three starts while allowing just three runs over that span. He has struck out 26 batters during the streak and is coming off consecutive 2-1 wins. He went eight innings last week against the Angels before telling manager Eric Wedge he was done for the night.

"I can't lie, I was a little tired in the end,'' Hernandez told reporters. "He asked me. And I've got to be honest. I said 'I'm going to be honest, we've got to win this game.' ''

Rick Porcello, Detroit Tigers (13-8, 4.87 ERA)

The Tigers have won four straight with Porcello on the mound and he has allowed just one run in two of his last three outings. Right now he really has his sinker going, which induced 13 ground-ball outs in a 10-1 win at Cleveland last week.

"He kept the ball on the ground, and that’s a big thing for him,” manager Jim Leyland said of Porcello.” That usually tells you that he’s got the ball darting around a little bit with pretty late movement and they’re mis-hitting the ball a little bit."

Slumping

Dontrelle Willis, Cincinnati Reds (0-5, 4.21 ERA)

Willis heads into Monday’s tilt with the Cubs still searching for his first win of the season in his 12th start. Despite the winless drought, Willis hasn’t been terrible. His major issue lately is his control after walking five batters in each of his last three outings. Willis gave up all four runs in a 4-3 loss to the Cubs last week.

Chris Volstad, Florida Marlins (5-12, 5.37 ERA)

Volstad has dropped his last four decisions and the Marlins have lost each of his last trips to the hill, but he can’t take all the blame. The 6-foot-8 starter has allowed only two earned runs in each of his last two starts and hasn’t yielded more than four earned runs since a blowout loss to the Phillies in early July.

Hot lines: Monday’s best MLB bets
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Philadelphia Phillies at Houston Astros (+160, 7.5)

Roy Oswalt can probably expect a warm welcome from Houston Astros fans Monday as he makes his first return to Houston since last summer’s deal that sent him to Philly. After all, it’s not like Astros supporters have much else to cheer about.

And maybe this is the kind of game that’ll finally get Oswalt going. He didn’t allow a hit through six innings last week in a 3-2 win over the Braves.

“Tonight I felt pretty strong the whole game,” Oswalt told reporters after the game. “Two days ago I felt like my arm strength is coming back a little more. We’ve worked on my mechanics a little bit, freed me up to get on top of the ball. It felt like I could place my fastball a little bit better.”

You have to think he’ll put on a good show Monday in Texas. We don’t normally play chalk this high, but it’s probably worth it in this spot.

Pick: Phillies


Detroit Tigers at Chicago White Sox (-135, 8.5)

The Detroit Tigers extended their winning streak to nine games by completing a three-game sweep of the Minnesota Twins on Sunday.

Doug Fister threw seven shutout innings and allowed just three hits as the Tigers slipped by the Twins 2-1 to extend the winning streak, which is the longest in franchise history since the club won nine straight on its way to the 1984 World Series title.

Now the Tigers have a chance to all but lock up their first division title since 1987 with three games against the White Sox. Detroit swept a three-game set with the White Sox last week by putting 35 combined runs on the board.

The Tigers send Rick Porcello to the mound and he has looked good over his last three outings while the club averaged 7.7 runs of support for him.

Pick: Tigers
