NFL Prop Picks: Denver Broncos vs. San Diego Chargers Tips 10/15
October 13th, 2012 by
The San Diego Chargers and Denver Broncos are set to continue the 2012 NFL season, and as a part of our analysis of the Week 6 betting lines, we are taking a look at some of the best NFL props on the board for this crucial primetime fight.
Will the First Score Be a Touchdown or Field Goal?: This is just some simple math. The Broncos have scored 16 touchdowns against seven field goals this year. San Diego has 13 touchdowns and 12 field goals. Now just do some quick math. That’s 29 touchdowns and 19 field goals. Considering how badly QB Peyton Manning has played against the Chargers in his career (more on that in a second), some of those touchdown drives for the Broncos very well could turn into field goal drives. All we need is the first one to be that way around 40% of the time, and we’re going to be winners. First Score a Field Goal or Safety (+160)
Peyton Manning Over/Under 285.5 Passing Yards: Manning has averaged 304.0 passing yards per game in his career against the Chargers over the course of seven games. He has completed just 60.8 percent of his passes against them though, and he has a woeful quarterback rating of just 72.5 against them. Remember that this isn’t nearly the same Manning that had all of those great receiving options in Indianapolis. Yes, this Peyton Manning has averaged 299.8 passing yards per game this year, but there is a reason that this number has been lined a tad lower than these numbers that you see. The Chargers rank No. 20 in the NFL is passing, but they should be able to hold Manning under this very, very lofty passing total for Manning, who would much rather keep the football on the ground. Peyton Manning Passing Yards Under 285.5 (-115)
Will Joel Dreessen Score a Touchdown?: Dreessen is a nice little story this year, and he does have three trips to the end zone in five games. However, one of those touchdowns came on a pass which was never even intended for him and ended up just more or less falling into his hands. Dreessen only has 11 catches this year, and he clearly isn’t a threat to score a touchdown from anywhere more than a dozen or so yards away from the end zone. The Chargers haven’t allowed much to opposing tight ends this year, including just a pair of touchdowns over the course of the first five games of the campaign. It seems a heck of a lot more likely that TE Jacob Tamme scores than Dreessen, and we think that this prop is overstated. Joel Dreessen Doesn’t Score a Touchdown (-180)
Philip Rivers Passing Yards Over/Under 285.5: Once again, this is a very high number against a secondary that has some real talent in it. Rivers has had luck in his career against the Broncos, and there is no doubt that he is going to be asked to put the ball in the air quite a bit again in this one. However, Rivers has a running game at his disposal now with RB Ryan Mathews being back in the lineup and trusted with the football, and that is going to take some of the pressure off indeed. Rivers might come up near this number, but when push comes to shove, asking him to throw for over 286 yards would be averaging 4,500+ yards for a season. Rivers just isn’t going to be able to do that in all likelihood, especially knowing that he is averaging just 250.2 yards per game thus far on the campaign. Philip Rivers Passing Yards Under 285.5 (-115)

Week 7 of the college football schedule is out, and here at Bankroll Sports, we are looking at all of the best NCAA football odds and the college football betting lines on the board for what should be quite the interesting week on the gridiron.

Here at Bankroll Sports, we aren’t just interested in the gambling world, but the fantasy football world as well. Join us for our Week 5 fantasy football picks, including a heck of a lot of sleepers that might be worth playing throughout the weekend.
The Florida Gators and the LSU Tigers both have rich histories of late that include a number of appearances in the BCS National Championship Game. The Bayou Bengals might be contenders again this year, but we just don’t see the Gators being able to play that same role in spite of the fact that they are on the verge of being in the Top 10 in the nation. However, for LSU to be BCS bound once again, it is likely going to have to go into the Swamp and avoid the upset against a UF team that will be playing in one of its biggest games of the entire season. Our LSU vs. Florida picks are second to none here at Bankroll Sports, and we have our first look at this college football matchup in our Top 25 games of the 2012 season.
Big XII football always has and always will revolve around the state of Texas. The biggest school in the biggest state in football is the Texas Longhorns, regardless of how good they are or aren’t. It is going to be very interesting to see how the West Virginia Mountaineers do in their very first trip to Austin, a trip that is going to very potentially make or break the season for either of these teams. Both squads have upper echelon talent, and both have gotten through the first month and change of the season with great records intact. Join us for our Texas vs. West Virginia picks for the very first game in this newly born rivalry.
The SEC East title might be on the line relatively early in the season in Columbia, when the South Carolina Gamecocks and the Georgia Bulldogs square off at Williams Brice Stadium. These two teams have played quite the rivalry over the course of the last few years, and this year should be no exception. Both of these teams were ranked in the Top 10 in the
