2024 NFL Week 11 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 6-8 against the spread in Week 10.

I had a rough performance in the early games on Sunday, but I was able to do much better from that point on. I was coming off some solid weeks, so this will hopefully be just a small setback.

There are a lot of fun games on the schedule this week. I want to say that there are four must-watch games this week. Unfortunately, due to injury, the Monday night game between the Texans and Cowboys isn’t one of them.

2024 NFL Week 3 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 8-7-1 against the spread in Week 2.

After a big Week 1, my picks struggled in the late afternoon games on Sunday. I did manage to hit on one of my parlays, so I was still in the black for the week.

The Minnesota Vikings are currently undefeated and host the Houston Texans this Sunday. Can they continue to buck the trend and start the year 3-0 with Sam freakin’ Darnold at quarterback?

How will Panthers QB Andy Dalton fare against the Raiders pass rush?

2024 NFL Week 2 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 10-4-2 against the spread in Week 1.

We had a solid start to the season, but you can’t go all-in on a team that either impressed in Week 1 or completely fell on their face. It’s important to lean on your preseason rankings until an injury or something too glaring to ignore happens.

2024 NFL Wild Card Playoff Games – Betting Picks Against Spread

Mason Rudolph dottedI went 8-6 against the spread in the final regular season games.

I would have loved to have went more in-depth for every game this weekend, but a light fell while I was away from home and knocked over a drink I had next to my laptop, thus frying said laptop. I am posting this on my old laptop that I spent thousand of hours on, but almost impossible to type anything of length due to the letter ‘M’ not working. I have to copy and paste other Ms in this post. I would lose my mind if I did this in a 3k-word NFL post.

We only have one double digit point spread this week. We usually had more than that in recent years, so we should have some tight games this weekend.

We pick every NFL Wild Card Weekend game against the spread.

2023 NFL Week 18 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 8-8 against the spread during Week 17.

I’m sorry about getting my picks out so late this week. I was waiting on more info on which teams will be sitting starters, and then life got super busy. I unfortunately miss the deadline for Saturday games, but I am picking the remaining 14 games on the schedule.

I have a feeling that we will see a lot of coaches on the chopping block late-Sunday and on Black Monday. Most of the coaches on the hot seat have unfortunate match-ups on Sunday. We could see as many as seven coaches without a job soon.

2023 NFL Week 16 – Betting Picks Against Spread

derrick henry dottedI went 7-7-2 against the spread during Week 15.

It was a back-and-forth week for me. I would get up by a game and then break even after the next slate of games.

Injuries are always a big issue at this point in ever NFL season. You have to keep an eye on the injury reports since there are a lot of banged-up quarterbacks right now. Also, some of the basement teams are rotating backup quarterbacks to finish the season. You will also see more double-digit point spreads than at any other point in the season (we have a few this week).

2023 NFL Week 14 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Lamar Jackson dotted funnyI went 6-7 against the spread during Week 13.

I apologize for being so late with this week’s NFL picks. I’ve had a busy week and another project has taken up way too much of my free time.

We are almost back to a full slate of games, but we are getting to the point where Saturday games will happen soon. This week’s weird due to two Monday Night Football games, so keep an eye on the TV schedule as not all the games will happen on Sundays going forward.

Can the Eagles sweep the Cowboys this season?

2023 NFL Week 7 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 8-7 against the spread in Week 6.

I just can’t shake my streak of mediocrity. I’ve been stagnant at .500-ish for awhile now and I need a big week.

Last week, there were a couple huge underdogs that won against the spread. Double-digit point spreads are notoriously difficult to cover, but one of those underdogs won outright (Browns), and another was damn close (Giants).

I don’t want to spoil my picks this week, but I’ve went heavy on the points. I feel like there is money to be made on the underdogs this week. I would even suggest betting the moneyline on a few ‘dogs this weekend.

2023 NFL Week 4 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 11-5 against the spread in Week 3.

I finally recorrected and was able to put together a positive week. I think we are finally starting to figure out which teams were overrated to start the year.

This could be my last ‘bare bones’ NFL article going forward. The break was very positive for my overall health and just adjusting to the loss of my longtime pet, and adding a new one to my life, has went well so far.

2023 NFL Week 2 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I had a rough start to the NFL season, but we know go into Week 2 with a lot more information.

This week’s article is bare bones and it may be like this for a week or two. I’ve been dealing with something personal and my mental health is absolute trash right now. I really hit a low about this time last week and didn’t think I could put myself through writing 12k+ words across my normal three weekly articles.

I really do love doing this, but it’s near-impossible when I can’t muster enough attention span to stitch two everyday tasks together. This change will probably be just a week or two.

2023 Fantasy Football Sleepers: Quarterbacks

Many of you will soon be drafting your fantasy football teams for the 2023 season. It’s nearly impossible to win a league these days without a stud quarterback. The days of owning LaDanian Tomlinson and plowing through the league are long over.

We all know the studs in fantasy and if you own a quarterback like Patrick Mahomes or Josh Allen, barring an injury, you have a great head-start on the year. Unfortunately, not everyone can have those two men on your team, especially in a deep league.

In a fantasy draft, you usually don’t roll the dice and take a deep quarterback sleeper, unless you’re in a twenty-team league. I accrued a list that gets progressively more sleeper-ish as you read. There’s a mix of talent of guys who should be drafted in all standard leagues and, “I’ve never heard that name before” sleepers.

2022 NFL Week 17 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Saquon Barkley dottedI went 7-9 against the spread last week.

I’m glad to be back with my regular NFL betting content. I had a physical issue during the cold stretch and my arms were numb due to my ongoing neck issues. I deal with intermittent numbness, but this was next level. I had very little coordination in my hands and it made typing a slow, typo-ridden experience.

This time of the year, you need to be knowledgeable about different playoff-clinching scenarios. There are a few teams that can clinch spots and it doesn’t look like any team will bulk rest their starters.
