Eheh. There's actually some strategies to use if one wants to do that... Handicapping preseason NFL is a little too wild and wooly for some (me).... You have to figure the back up QB's will be playing the majority of the time, some coaches don't give a rat's behind about winning in preseason (even though they won't admit that) or they suck at it, some coaches/teams are better in the preseason than they are in the regular season, etc.
If you're really interested,
here's a good video that discusses preseason betting strategies.
One of the things you're looking for in any sports betting (IMO), is an error in the line.... The NFL is usually pretty tight/close......college football doesn't get quite the same treatment so, IMO, it's a little easier to find "errors"....
