The 2009 NFL season is still several months off, but now is a good time to take an early look at how the oddsmakers see things shaping up.Let's start with the Over/Under lines on regular season wins.There are a few that stick out and may catch the eye of fans. The Miami Dolphins are set at 7 wins. Some may think, "well, they went to the playoffs last year," and jump on the over. On the flip side, some of the so-called experts have tabbed them as one of the teams most likely to disappoint this season. The Dolphins have a first-place schedule to contend with, and let's not forget they get to see a Tom Brady-led New England Patriots club twice.The Pats enter '09 with an over/under total at 11.5 wins, the highest mark. I think it's a little too high. Sure the return of Brady is the biggest reason, and they did post a winning season in 2008 without him. However, I just have a hunch that they don't go 12-4 or better. Seems like a bit too much to pick the over...
