The Denver Broncos fell from the ranks of the unbeaten last Sunday in a 23-16 loss to Atlanta as 3.5-point home favorites following four=straight wins, but BetAnySports has listed them as three-point road favorites to get back to their winning ways this Thursday night against the struggling 1-4 San Diego Chargers in an AFC West tilt at Qualcomm Stadium. The betting line for the total has been set at 45 and kickoff is set for 8:25 p.m. (ET) on CBS.
The Broncos' offense could never really get in gear last Sunday against the Falcons with rookie quarterback Paxton Lynch under center, but it does look like Trevor Siemian should be able to return to the lineup on Thursday night after missing last week's game with a shoulder injury. The real key to getting a win on the road against this division rival will still hinge on Denver's defense shutting down Philip Rivers and a Chargers' offense that is ranked second in the NFL in scoring with an average of 30.4 points a game. San Diego's biggest issue this season has been late-game collapses behind a defense that is ranked 28th in points allowed (28.4).

NFL Week 5 Free Parlay Play
Underdogs have been the big story in the NFL through the first four weeks of the regular season with a winning rate of close to 48 percent. They have also been putting money in bettor's pockets with a winning percentage of 55.5 against the spread. We all know that sportsbooks do not make money by accident and that it is only a matter of time before the Oddsmakers sharpen up the betting lines to start evening-out these early betting trends.
I am not sure that this is the week when the majority of the favorites finally show up and play to their expectations, but I have found a pair of favorites that come together perfectly to form this week's free NFL Parlay Play for Pay Per Head Guide. The ironic thing about my two picks is that either team would have probably been listed as an underdog in this Sunday's matchup before the start of the regular season. Check out the link below at Pay Per Head Guide for my free NFL Week 5 Parlay Play.

ACC Football Saturday Parlay Picks
The ACC currently has six teams ranked in the latest AP Top 25 and this Saturday's slate features two matchups between ranked teams starting with No. 25 Virginia Tech on the road against No. 17 North Carolina. Later in the day, No. 23 Florida State will renew a long-standing in-state rivalry when they head south to square off against No. 10 Miami.
Both of these contests will not only have a big impact on next week's national rankings, they might go a long way towards deciding which Coastal Division team advances to this season's ACC Championship Game in early December. As part of my weekly NCAA football parlay play of the week for Pay Per Head Guide, I have dug deep into the stats, facts and betting trends for both of these showdowns to come up with my "best bet" pick for the games. I was on the money with last week's top two plays and I have all intentions of cashing in again this week.

ACC Pick of the Week: North Carolina at Florida State
The biggest game in the ACC this Saturday is a showdown between No. 3 Louisville and No. 5 Clemson with the Cardinals going on the road as slight two-point favorites, but the undercard in this conference offers up an intriguing matchup between the North Carolina Tar Heels and the No.12 Florida State Seminoles in a 3:30 p.m. start in Tallahassee.
North Carolina started the season ranked in the AP's Top 25 but a Week 1 loss to Georgia knocked it out of the standings. At 3-1 on the year it is still ranked No. 23 in the latest Coaches Poll. Florida State climbed all the way to No. 2 in the national polls before a lopsided loss to Louisville ended that run. Both teams need this game to stay on track for a shot at playing in the ACC title game, but the Seminoles are currently listed as 11-point home favorites by BetAnySports to come out on top. I happen to think that things will be much closer than that in what should be a very entertaining game right down to the final gun.
The Tar Heels come in with an offense that is averaging 41.3 points a game led by quarterback Mitch Trubisky. He has already thrown for 1,306 yards and 10 touchdowns while completing an impressive 74.5 percent of his passing attempts. Florida State's offense is ranked 16th in the nation in scoring with an average of 43 points a game and it is led by Heisman hopeful running back Dalvin Cook, who has gained 495 yards and scored four touchdowns on 78 carries. It is easy to see why BetAnySports has set the total for this game at 71.

NFL Week 4 Home Underdogs to Bet On
The 2016 NFL regular season is only three weeks old and it has already been an extremely profitable year for anyone consistently betting on home underdogs covering against the spread. According to the current NFL betting trends at Covers.com, home underdogs have won 53.8 percent of their games straight-up and when you add in the closing spread that winning percentage jumps up to 61.5 percent. Underdogs in general have covered in close to 60 percent of their games so the big question heading into Week 4 is will these winning trends continue or is it finally time for the favorites to start living up to expectations?
As part of a new series for PayPerHeadGuide.com, I will be putting together my top NFL two-team parlay for each week's games and this time around I found a pair of home underdogs that have a great chance to win their game this Sunday outright. Check out the link below for my two NFL picks that come together perfectly to form this week's parlay play.

ACC Pick of the Week: Pitt at North Carolina
One of the top matchups in the ACC this Saturday when it comes to offensive firepower sends Pittsburgh to Chapel Hill to face the North Carolina Tar Heels in a 3:30 p.m. (ET) start at Kenan Stadium. BetAnySports has listed the Tar Heels as seven-point favorites and the betting line for the total in this Coastal Division tilt has been set at 67.5 points.
Both teams have already suffered a tough loss this season outside the conference with Pitt falling to Oklahoma State 45-38 last week in a wild one and the Tar Heels losing to Georgia 33-24 on opening day. The winner of this matchup will take an early edge in the race to win the Coastal Division this season, which figures to be a three-way battle between these two teams and Miami.
The Panthers open play in the ACC with an offense that has averaged 36 points over its first three games. This potent scoring attack has been fueled by a run game that is racking up an average of 239 yards a game. North Carolina is scoring an average of 42.7 points a game and it is getting done through the air with quarterback Mitch Trubisky throwing for 853 yards and five touchdowns in his first three games. Both teams have had their issues on the other side of the ball so look for an active scoreboard this Saturday afternoon in Chapel Hill.

Free NFL Thursday Night Football Picks- Houston at New England
It is pretty common for perception and reality to be at opposite ends of the spectrum during the first few weeks of any new NFL season. Case in point was my free pick for last Thursday night's AFC East clash between the New York Jets and the Buffalo Bills.
Based on what I saw from both of these teams on offense in Week 1, I predicted a low-scoring battle that would easily stay UNDER an already low total line of 40.5 points. The Jets had just come up short in a 23-22 loss to Cincinnati with less than 190 yards of passing offense while the Bills could only manage seven points in a Week 1 loss to Baltimore. Following a sluggish first quarter in last Thursday night's matchup in which the Bills led New York 7-6, both teams started lighting up the scoreboard to end the game with combined 68 points. So much for early perceptions when it comes to predicting future results.
Fast forward to this Thursday's Houston at New England game and the early perception was that the Patriots could be in big trouble against the 2-0 Texans with their third-string quarterback Jacoby Brissett slated to get the start. It is pretty obvious that the betting public is not buying into this line of thought with the game now listed as a PICK after Houston opened as a 2.5-point favorite on the road when the betting line was first released last Sunday night at BetAnySports.
New England getting points at home was a gift no matter who is under center at quarterback so that is why I am so glad that I locked in on this game early in the week to get those 2.5 points. Including the playoffs, the Patriots come into this game with a 27-2 straight-up record in their last 29 games played in the friendly confines of Gillette Stadium in Foxboro.
Check out the link below at SportsBettingStats.com for my complete preview of this intriguing early-season tilt between a pair of undefeated teams as part of a season-long series picking winners for Thursday Night Football.
