On Tap Bets NFL Week 3 Edition – On Tap Sports Net

Well, well, well Im new to the gambling writing world, but not to the gambling playing world. After a night where my Jordan Howard TD anytime and Dolphins Money Line bets hit, Im here to give you three bets I like ahead of NFL week three action. Lets go!

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are finally getting things together. After a disappointing week one loss, the Bucs rebounded and won in week two. This week, the Broncos are without quarterback Drew Lock, and Tampa is returning Chris Godwin after he missed last weeks contest. This will be the first time that Tampa has been at full strength on offense after Mike Evans missed week one against the Saints.

Its pretty easy to get excited about the Bucs here. Sure, could Denver keep it close like they did against Pittsburgh? 100%. That said, I think Tampa is a better team and Tampas defense is comparable, if not equal to that of the Steelers. Give me the Bucs on the spread. If it continues to drop and you can get it at -5 or -4.5, HAMMER IT.

Pick: Tampa Bay -5.5

Sunday Nights game will be a thriller as the always dominant Saints host the high-flying Green Bay Packers. For those reading who know me, the author, you know picking the Packers in anything is always a shot at my pride. That said, I think that after New Orleans lost to a Raiders team with a lot of unknowns, theyve shown they can be beaten. The Packers, on the other hand, look really good after two weeks.

Aaron Rodgers is on a vengeance tour after the front office refused to draft a wide receiver in Aprils draft. Instead, they took Rodgers heir apparent in QB Jordan Love and took a backup plan to RB Aaron Jones when they selected A.J. Dillon, showing that the organization was more concerned about the future than helping this current roster. Rodgers took that personally.

Rodgers has thrown for 604 yards in his first two games to go with six touchdowns and zero interceptions. He is playing at an elite level and is out to prove to the front office that they should have done more to help him in the offseason. Give me an angry Rodgers to shock the Saints, even in the Super Dome. If youre feeling really ballsy, you could even take the Green Bay moneyline.

Pick: Green Bay +3

This game is interesting. Dak is playing like his you-know-whats are on fire and hes on a tour to get paid. On the other side, Russell Wilson is playing at an MVP level with nine touchdowns in two weeks. It doesnt matter who wins this game, but it should be a high-scoring, competitive affair.

That said, give me the Cowboys on the spread. Im not saying theyll win, but I like the Cowboys to keep it close and make Russ look like the MVP that hes playing like. I think Dak comes out and pushes him, but itll be close no matter what.

Pick: Dallas +5

If I have more picks Ill tweet them on Sunday, especially as lines move. Follow me @rnldluce on Twitter and lets make some money. If I lose, you are allowed to heckle me.
