Washington Redskins (0-0) at Buffalo Bills (0-0)
Line: Redskins by 2.
Thursday, 7:00 ET

The Game. Edge: None.
Outcomes of preseason games rarely have anything to do with the talent on the respective teams, since the majority of the games are played by second-, third- and fourth-stringers.

Some coaches care about winning preseason games, while others do not. Thus, betting on coaches with great preseason records is an easy way to make money.

Here are recent NFL Betting Trends: Preseason Records for every coach in the NFL.

***

Chan Gailey doesn't care about Week 1 of the preseason. His team has scored 20 points in two contests, including a 42-17 blowout loss to the Redskins in 2010. Washington will want Robert Griffin to gain some confidence, so Mike Shanahan may play him more than Gailey will Ryan Fitzpatrick.

    Mike Tomlin is one of the most intense coaches in football. He really wants to win these preseason games. Andy Reid, meanwhile, usually doesn't give a damn unless it's Week 3.

    UPDATE: I'm dropping this down to one unit because the Eagles may want to win this game for their coach.

    I'm adding this pick as of Thursday morning. Mike Smith doesn't care much about the non-Week 3 preseason games; he's a combined 3-9 in Preseason Weeks 1, 2 and 4. John Harbaugh, meanwhile, is 10-2 in exhibition contests the past three years.

    This will be a small wager. Jim Schwartz loves winning preseason games, so this would be a larger bet if the Browns weren't preparing their rookies for regular-season action.

    I can't believe there is a legitimate chance he is going to get every single game wrong. I've never seen anything like this.

    I wish walt would just man up and admit he is terrible. No more BS excuses. Just come out and say i'm flat terrible this year and don't blame officials, bogus covers, "other sharps are losing too", and some other excuses i'm probably missing. I respect a man that owns his mistakes. Not one that makes excuses for them.

    Unreal!!!
    There is no doubt now that chebumski has all the website traffic, that there is a conspiracy in place with the bookies. No one could actually suck this bad on mltiple unit bets. I am broke because his persuasiveness and in depth analysis has shifted my bets. He is an absolute money making genius. Reveal the scam FACKER

    Wow going 0-6 takes a certain amount of skill. I wonder what the excuses will be tomorrow... maybe the refs fixed the games? Or some cheap backdoor/frontdoor cover? Or maybe some special teams TD? It's kind of fun to guess which excuse we'll see. I like the site, but Walt you gotta stop making stupid excuses. I know you were ok in past years but 8 weeks is not a fluke

    We will have to wait for Walt to summarize his pick totals on Tuesday. He will probably say he went 4-0-1 in the morning games.

    Boycott the advertisers on this site until Walt starts winning again.
    Let me "guarantee" something.
    If he starts losing advertising revenue, he will start making some changes/effort to his picks

    Cmon guys! Walt wouldn't be down too bad if Houston didn't "screw" him and hit that FG at the end! I mean, Gabbert went 10-30 passing. That team definitely deserved to cover!! Good pick Walt!

    No doubt in my mind some of the early games were fixed. Vegas has been getting pounded this year and in the early games, none of the heavily bets teams covered.
