Update: The spread and pick for the Eagles-49ers game is now posted.

Now that’s what I’m talking about!

After going a putrid 15-15-2 against the spread through the first two weeks of the 2011 NFL season, I exploded in Week 3 with a 12-4 domination of the point spreads. I’m now 27-19-2 on the season, good for about a 56% winning clip through three weeks.

I’d happily take that for the season, so if I can just maintain this pace I’ll set myself up for yet another successful season picking games the way I always do: first gut impression based on Tuesday lines.

Bettor’s Guide: NFL Week 4 Picks, Point Spreads, and Over-Unders

Update 9/28: This post has been updated. All spreads and picks are in.

I had another solid effort in Week 3. Heading into tonight’s Monday nighter between the Packers and Bears, I am 9-6 for the week against the spread. That makes my season record 27-17-3 (a winning percentage of 57%) and means I’ve been over .500 all three weeks this season.

Hell yes. That means I’ve started out much more like the Dolphins or Falcons than the 49ers.

It’s only Monday, but it’s never too early to look ahead to Week 4.

Viewer’s Guide: NFL Week 4 TV Schedule, Announcers, and Odds

Update 9/28: This post has been updated with the odds and announcer assignments.

Week 3 was the last week with a full slate of games for a while. The byes start in Week 4, and both the Cowboys and Vikings were able to get Ws so that they don’t have to sit around all week at 0-3.

Among the highlights on the Week 4 NFL schedule: an AFC North showdown between the Ravens and Steelers; a Monday night tilt between the Dolphins and Patriots; and, Donovan McNabb’s return to Philadelphia.

Update: The NFL Week 17 TV schedule, point spreads, and picks post is up.

——————–

I’m starting to get into a nice rhythm getting these NFL TV schedule and odds posts published. Right as the Monday Night Football game ends, it’s time to hit publish, turn the page, and get ready for the next week.

This week is Week 4 of the 2009 NFL season and there are some great games on the schedule this week. Ravens-Patriots, Saints-Jets, Cowboys-Broncos, Chargers-Steelers, and…

Vikings-Packers.

That’s right. Brett Favre makes his first appearance against his former team this week on Monday Night Football. Get ready, because you won’t be hearing about anything else all week. (And if you’re interested in tickets, follow the link for some great Vikings-Packers tickets resources.)

As always, this post is designed to be the most complete viewing guide you’ll find anywhere. Not only is every game listed (with date, time, network, and announcer pairing) but we also give you the point spread and over-under, as well as an educated guess at a spread pick for each game.

Through three weeks I am 28-20 against the spread. I’ll take it!
