Super Bowl 59 – Betting Picks Against Spread & Prop Bets

Super Bowl 59 is this Sunday and it’s a prop bets smorgasbord.

I LOVE prop bets. I actually get more joy out of betting Super Bowl prop bets than betting against the spread. Yes, most are a crap shoot, but with the right research, you can end up winning bets with very favorable odds.

I’m not saying you can research who will win the coin toss, but there are many other player and team prop bets out there that have nice odds.

Some prop bets aren’t worth the money (the juice isn’t worth the slight risk), but sometimes you just have to lay a few bucks down, cross your fingers and wish for the best.

I picked out some of the most popular prop bets for Super Bowl 59 (or Super Bowl LIX for Roman numeral fans)…and we also pick the game against the spread.

2024-25 NFL Conference Championships – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 3-0-1 against the spread during the Divisional Round.

We have two very different games on the schedule this week.

The NFC Championship have a new contender in the race with the Washington Commanders being a surprise opponent for the Philadelphia Eagles.

The AFC Championship had no surprises, as these two teams were favored to meet here since the start of the season.

We pick both NFL Conference Championship games against the spread (and point over/under totals) for the 2024-25 NFL weekend of playoff action.

2024-25 NFL Divisional Playoffs – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 3-3 against the spread during Wild Card Weekend.

The Wild Card games were a bit ho-hum, but we did get one or two solid games. I expect a lot more drama this week. I think both late games will deliver just that.

The Chiefs and Lions are coming off their well-deserved bye week, will they look rested or rusty?

Does rookie Washington QB Jayden Daniels have any more magic left in him?

We pick every NFL Divisional game against the spread and throw out a few upsets for the 2024-25 NFL weekend of playoff action.

2024-25 NFL Wild Card Playoffs – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 11-5 against the spread in Week 18.

Week 18 was a case in backwards thinking. A lot of bad teams won and ruined their draft stock. Bad teams/franchises tend to make things worse for themselves and I bet on a lot of those teams to do just that.

It’s important to look at weather reports, the strength of opponents down the stretch and injury reports before placing your bets.

Can the Commanders continue to surprise and cover against Tampa Bay?

We pick every NFL Wild Card game against the spread and throw out a few upsets for the 2024-25 NFL weekend of playoff action.

My Weekly TTM Autograph Haul #41 – Ryne Sandberg, Billy Sims & more

The holiday season was ending, but I felt like a kid on Christmas for the autograph returns I received in the days after the 25th. We got some big names in our TTM autograph returns, but we still only had 8 successes this video.

2024 NFL Week 17 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I had a rough 8-7-1 record against the spread in Week 16.

First off, to have a Wednesday afternoon game this late in the season is just psychotic. Teams like to keep things more secret this time of the year. It’s insanely difficult to handicap games on Tuesday night for games that mostly happen on Sunday.

We have games nearly every single day from Christmas Day through Sunday. I’m not sure if I want these Christmas Day games to be a hit or not since games will end up on Tuesdays and Wednesday a few times each decade.

We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 17 of the 2024 NFL season.

2024-25 College Football Playoff Betting Picks Against Spread – 1st Round

I went 6-2 against the spread in the final regular season week of the 2024-25 College Football season.

I usually don’t do too many college football betting posts after the regular season. It’s hard to do weekly betting picks for bowl games due to all the transfer portal and the coaching carousel changes. This year, due to the new College Football Playoff format, it’s much easier to do the playoff games.

Can the Indiana Hoosiers shut up the haters and win in South Bend?

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick EVERY college football games against the spread for the first round of games of the 2024-25 NCAA College Football Playoff.
