NFL 2012 Antepost Betting

Thought I'd get this one rolling. Hopefully these two bets are more successful than my first ill-placed wager on the Cardinals winning the Superbowl. :unsure Ryan Matthews most regular season rushing yards @ 15 Paddy Cons: Has a history of injuries. Can miss games through injury. Umm, injury prone a bit. Pros: The Chargers want him to touch the ball as often as possible. Mike Tolbert is gone and they've brought in Ronnie Brown to back him up. Which is to say, they're going to give Mathews as much as he can handle, and have openly said this repeatedly. Personally, I think the odds here more than make up for any injury concerns. Foster is a favourite, but Tate is going to steal looks. MJD is looking like holding out, and Running Backs who hold out rarely do well. Ray Rice and LeSean McCoy are legitimate favourites, but there's nothing about their situation that trumps Mathews'. Honestly can't see why he's anything above 9's. Julio Jones most regular season receiving yards @ 21 Paddy From all reports the Falcons are going to air it out this year and given how poorly Turner finished the season and the number of miles he's racked up I can fully see it happening. And if it does, I see Julio Jones being the real winner. Roddy White is still a force and his presence should ensure that opposition defenses can't double team Jones. Megatron is a deserved favourite, but he's on the cover of Madden. Mike Wallace is above Jones in the betting which frankly is laughable. Wes Welker? Not with Brandon Lloyd on the team. Rodgers shares it around too much, with Jennings, Nelson and Finley all demanding looks and Cobb a sleeper factor. Great value IMO, I expect Jones to beast it this year and have him as 2nd favourite behind Megatron. P.S. If any of you are now planning to draft Julio Jones before me, please remember I have commissioner powers :p
