Preseason NFL Football Betting Tips  

Lucky Lester here with a little Preseason NFL info for all you guys out there who, like me, are counting the days till the NFL regular season kicks off (no pun intended). Until it does we have a little preseason action to whet our appetites. If you guys are anything like me I like to gauge how my favorite teams are shaping up for future games by really taking a look at their preseason games. I can't speak for anybody else but when the mood strikes me I even place a little wager or two during the preseason with my favorite online sportsbook. If you do too then you might find my Winning Tips helpful during the preseason.

Lucky Lester's NFL Winning Tips

Reserve Quarterbacks: Key to Victory

The NFL preseason presents a unique opportunity for winning wagers. Teams typically play all of their quarterbacks, whereas in the regular season they stick exclusively with their starters. In the preseason, starters will often play only a series or two. Poor plays from the inexperienced quarterback back-ups most often determine the game outcome. Lucky Lester's winning strategy is to bet against teams with weak, inexperienced reserve quarterbacks. After all, turnovers decide games. Young, inexperienced quarterbacks turn the ball over.

Having said that and if you agree with my thinking then you will be interested in taking a look at Lucky Lester's Top Five Teams to Bet Against in the Preseason

1. Dallas Cowboys
With Quincy Carter's departure, the Cowboys were forced to elevate 40 year old Vinnie Testaverde to the starting job. Vinnie never was that mobile and his advanced age makes him an inviting stationary target for an opposing rusher. Parcels will not risk injury by leaving him in the game for long in the preseason. Top back-up, Drew Henson spent the last four years playing baseball and has never taken an NFL snap. Third string, Tony Romo has some potential, but is also very raw. Look for Cowboys to turn it over early and often in the preseason.

2. Buffalo Bills
Immobile Drew Bledsoe will see limited preseason action and his back-ups are highly suspect. JP Cosman is a project. The number one draft pick from Tulane could struggle early against multiple look NFL defense. Travis Brown is not mobile and has very little experience.

3. San Francisco 49ers
Starter Tim Rattay is hobbled by a groin injury and his back-up Ken Dorsey has never taken an NFL snap. Cody Pickett, from the University of Washington is a seventh round rookie. Brandon Boman was fourth string last year and has never played a regular NFL game.

4. New York Jets
The Jets are thin once you get past Chad Pennington. Back-up Brooks Bollinger was a sixth round draft pick in 2003 and did not play last year. Ricky Ray starred in the CFL but has no NFL experience.

5. Indianapolis Colts
Once past Payton Manning, the Colts are dangerously thin at the quarterback spot. Last year back-ups, Huard moved on and the Colts must rely on Joe Hamilton, Cary Sauter, and rookie Jim Sorgi.
