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.

    @BT, thats great info, thanks man! I've never used an online place because i dont know how they work and worried about their legitimacy. I really hate being at the local guys mercy as far as when he opens up, etc...so I would like to give it a try. is it just like a line of credit? You use a credit card to play? Thanks for any more info you can take the time to give me.

    @question, you say "something fishy going on with my guy" and makes me wonder why anyone goes through a "guy" when there are so many great options on-line! The local guy I know has lost about 90% of his clients to on-line accounts and ended up closing shop. 5dimes has half juice the day/night before games in football, basketball, hockey. Ive been on-line since 2000 doesn't seem to make sense to do it any other way!

    Marion Gaborik 2g, 1a!! Lundqvist 32 saves on 34 shots. NYR 4 PHI 2 Late empty netter sends the Philly faithful home disappointed. That's my prediction. I'll look for the sign. And by the way I'm extremely jealous that you'll be at that game. I'll be in the Bay Area, CA watching it from my couch at 10am. Have a good time.

    @Guru man the over was the right play... 2 or 3 missed fg not converting on 4th downs in opponents territory, and not kicking fg when they should!!!
