Overrated NFL Teams:
A good handicapper is always aware of which teams are overrated and underrated by the public. I’ll attempt to list the teams I think are the most overrated and underrated each week. Keep in mind that even if a team is listed here, that doesn’t mean that I think lowly of them; they are simply overrated in Vegas’ eyes. These are the squads that Vegas can boost the spread on.

Atlanta Falcons – This Atlanta team isn’t very good. They’ve sacrificed too much to get Julio Jones, and their depth and offensive line have been compromised.

Cleveland Browns – I’m listing the Browns because their three wins might make them overvalued. Cleveland’s three victories this year have come against the Colts (0-7), Seahawks (2-4) and Dolphins (0-6). They lost their other games by a combined score of 82-47 – that was to the Bengals, Raiders and Titans.

Dallas Cowboys – The Cowboys look good on paper, but they’ll continue to beat themselves with mistakes.

Philadelphia Eagles – A quarterback who can’t read the blitz. An offensive line that can’t block anyone. A defense that can’t stop the run. A coach who makes dumb mistakes. This team stinks.

Pittsburgh Steelers – Pittsburgh’s wins have come against the Seahawks (2-4), who were playing a dreaded early game on the East Coast, Cardinals (1-5), Colts (0-7) by three points, Titans (3-3) without Kenny Britt and Jaguars (2-5) by four points.

Meanwhile, the only team they played currently in the Top 10 is Baltimore, whom they lost to by 28.

San Diego Chargers – How many years do we have to go through this? The Chargers look great on paper, but they will beat themselves with dumb mistakes.

Underrated NFL Teams:
A good handicapper is always aware of which teams are overrated and underrated by the public. I’ll attempt to list the teams I think are the most overrated and underrated each week.

Cincinnati Bengals – That loss to the 49ers doesn’t look too bad now. The Bengals have a really good defense and running game, and Andy Dalton has been steady thus far.

Kansas City Chiefs – Matt Cassel is healthy again, and Kansas City’s defense is pretty good.

New York Giants – The Giants will have Justin Tuck available on Sunday. They’ll be able to stop the run again, so I think they’ll exceed expectations.

Tennessee Titans – The Titans have been awful ever since they lost Kenny Britt. They’re not 6.5 points better than the Colts.
