With the NFL Week 3 odds, most of the late afternoon betting action was going towards the Chicago Bears, New Orleans Saints and Pittsburgh Steelers. The Bears were one of the most bet on team throughout the week.
The Bears vs. Seahawks game was among the most lopsided with Chicago still getting around 95 percent of the action by half time of the first set of games.
The Saints were getting close to 70 percent of the betting action in their game against the Buffalo Bills.
The Steelers and Bengals were getting even action though this was one of the most heavily wagered on games. It really won't matter who wins for the bookies as they won't see much of a win/loss in terms of revenue with this one.
The Broncos were getting slightly better than even action against the Raiders in their late afternoon game, but again the bookies will see little effect from the end results.

Jacksonville Jaguars to upset Houston Texans NFL Picks Week 3
Jacksonville Jaguars to upset Houston Texans NFL Picks Week 3 - I don't know what kind of team will the Texans show up today. As explosive as in the victory over the Titans? Or, as pathetic as the loss to the Jets? My NFL Picks say Jacksonville Jaguars will show up. The NFL Odds list Jacksonville Jaguars +3.5 underdogs to Houston Texans heading into this Free NFL Picks Week 3.
Active ImageThe Jaguars were burned early by a blocked field goal last week in a game that ended up very even statistically despite a 14-point margin. Jaguars vs Texans odds maker breakdown: Notable Injuries
The Jags have lost Troy Williamson to a torn labrum for the season, but it’s not like he was setting the world on fire anyway. Houston has bigger concerns – possession receiver Kevin Walter’s hamstring and starting corner Jacques Reeves’ broken leg. They’ll feel the sting more. NFL Football Betting Edge: Jaguars. The NFL Football Betting Odds list the total in this Jacksonville at Houston game is set at 47 points.
After the past two poor performances that Jax has showed, and the possibility of Kevin Walters return, Texans have a good game. Jaguars vs Texans NFL odds maker breakdown: Defense Hmm. It’s tough to really give any team an “edge” when neither squad has played great defense so far this season. However, we can at least say Jacksonville has done an adequate job stopping the run through two games, led by tackling machine Justin Durant. The Jags could bottle up Steve Slaton, who hasn’t matched the promise he showed last season. NFL Football Betting Edge: Jaguars. Week 3 NFL Football Betting Odds.

Minnesota managed to put another three points on the board when Longwell kicked a 52-yard field goal with 3:26 left in the half to move in front 13-7. In the closing seconds of the second Longwell lined up for his third field goal of the half but San Fran blocked the kick and Nate Clements collected the ball and went 59-yards for a touchdown to give the 49ers a 14-13 halftime lead.
San Francisco would then add a 32-yard field goal from Joe Nedney late in the third to build a 17-13 cushion but that would be short lived as Percy Harvin took the ensuing kickoff back 101 yards for a touchdown and Minnesota was back in front 20-17.

NFL Scores 2009 - Week 3 - September 27, 2009
The Lions won today behind the strength of their running game as Kevin Smith ran for 101 yards on 16 carries. Quarterback Matthew Stafford also had a strong game, throwing for 241 yards as he connected on 21 of 36 attempts. On the other sidelines the Redskins must be questioning where they go from here. Losing to a team that had lost nineteen straight has to be deflating as they drop to 1 - 2. In a division where they are battling the Giants (who are already 3 - 0) they have to step it up and step it up quick before they find themselves too far behind in the division.
Today's NFL scores from week 3 also provided some last minute comebacks. In Minnesota, Brett Favre heaved a 32 yard touchdown pass to Greg Lewis in the back of the end zone to steal a victory from the San Francisco 49ers with two seconds to play. The Vikings go to 3 - 0 for the first time since 2003 while they prevent the 49ers from going 3 - 0.
The same thing happened in Cincinnati as the Bengals went on a late fourth quarter scoring drive to knock off the Pittsburgh Steelers, 23 - 20. Carson Palmer connected with Andre Palmer with 14 seconds to go put the Bengals up for the first time in the game. The Bengals found themselves down 20 - 9 in the fourth quarter but refused to go away. They pulled to with in five points with a touchdown 9:14 to go in the fourth and then got the ball again with 5:14 with the score 20 - 15. From there Palmer led his team on a five minute 71 yard drive for the game winning touchdown. The Bengals climb to 2 - 1 while the defending champion Steelers drop to 1 - 2.
In New York the Jets continued to roll as they beat the Titans to remain undefeated. The New England Patriots didn't let the Jets get too far ahead in the AFC East division as they were able to take care of the Atlanta Falcons at home to go to 2 - 1.
