Friday Preseason

Once again, in my opinion preseason is a total crap shoot. Don't bet much if you bet at all.

San Francisco @ Oakland:
The line has been falling in this one, from 3 points to around 1.5 now. The Niners have a weird QB rotation going tonight, starting O'Sullivan, then to Smith, and then to Hill. I actually think this favors the Niners. Their two QBs with the most experience are going to be facing the backups. Because of this I expect that they will be able to move the ball and score more easily after the first quarter. I lean towards taking the points here.

Seahawks @ Vikings:
I would expect Hasselbeck to play no more than one drive. I do have some faith in Wallace and Frye to be able to move the ball later in the game, as soon as the Vikes pull their starting defense. On the other hand I have no real faith in any of the Vikings' QBs. I have no idea what the backup defenses are capable of, so I would lean toward taking the points here.

Philly @ Pittsburgh:
I have zero feel for this game. Big Ben may not play, but I don't know either of these teams very well. Because of this, I won't even attempt to break this down.
