2024-25 NFL Divisional Playoffs – Betting Picks Against Spread

Leave a reply

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?

2024 NFL Week 17 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Leave a reply

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.

2024 NFL Week 16 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I had a rough 11-5 record against the spread in Week 15.

It was nice to have a rebound after a couple weeks of middling results. I feel like there was value in many of the betting lines last week.

We have a few more double-digit point spreads this week Don’t get too comfortable now that a 17-point spread covered last week. Double-digit point spreads are still a tough cover in the NFL.

Can the Detroit Lions stay afloat amid a flurry of injuries?

2024 NFL Week 14 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 10-5-1 against the spread in Week 13.

I wasn’t my usual self on Thanksgiving, by I had a great Sunday with my bets.

We are dealing with a lot of injuries this time of the year. We saw 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey and Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence suffer major injuries last week.

We went heavy on the home favorites this week. There are just a lot of hometown value in the lines this week.

2024 NFL Week 13 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 7-6 against the spread in Week 12.

I’ve historically been outstanding on Thanksgiving. I’m always scared of jinxing myself by pointing this out every year. It’s worked out so far, so if I miss, it’s my fault.

Due to injuries, there are only two solid games on Thanksgiving. I would call the Giants/Cowboys game a complete skip for me. I just have no desire to watch Tommy Cutlets, or Tim Boyle, or Drew Lock vs Cooper freaking Rush duke it out while I digest food.

Can Jalen Hurts outduel Lamar Jackson this weekend?

2024 NFL Week 12 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 7-7 against the spread in Week 11.

After a stretch of great weeks, I’ve had back-to-back hiccups. Well, I hope they are hiccups, because I need to turn it around.

I really like this week’s slate of games. There are some fun ones on the schedule, like Ravens/Chargers and Niners/Packers. I don’t love the few double-digit point spreads, but this always happens at this point every year.

Can the Detroit Lions stay hot and cover on the road against the Indianapolis Colts?

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 10 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 10-5 against the spread in Week 9.

I really needed a strong showing on Sunday after getting wrecked by my college football bets. I was able to recoup a large portion of my losses thanks to a three-team parlay.

Injuries have really hit some teams hard this season. It appears that the 49ers may be a near-full strength soon now that RB Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) returned to practice. On the other side of the coin, the Cowboys may lose QB Dake Prescott (hamstring) for a couple games.

Can the Lions continue their hot streak?

2024 NFL Week 8 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 10-5 against the spread in Week 7.

I had an outstanding Sunday, but finished 1-2 in the Sunday and Monday night primetime games. Any week when you have double-digit wins against the spread, is a positive week.

We have a rare midseason schedule with no bye weeks. We also have a handful of double-digit point spreads, which have been extremely rare so far this year. We will be seeing more going forward.

We are seeing injury issues wreaking havoc right now. We saw Tampa Bay, San Francisco and Cleveland lose important players to major injuries that will keep them out for the rest of the season.

2024 NFL Week 7 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 9-4-1 against the spread in Week 6.

I thought I was going to end up with double-digit wins this weekend, but Jets QB Aaron Rodgers threw a pick in the final minutes of their last to the Bills.

We have an odd schedule of games with a early-Sunday game in London and two Monday Night Football games.

The best teams in the league are beginning to separate themselves from the pack. The Detroit Lions have looked like the best team in the NFC so far this month, but a lot can change moving forward.

2024 NFL Week 5 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 7-9 against the spread in Week 4.

I had a rough start to my NFL bets as I was 2-8 after the early game session on Sunday. Thankfully, I nearly ran perfect with the remainder of the games to save my bankroll.

We have some fun games on the schedule with Baltimore at Cincinnati and Buffalo at Houston are the marquee games of the week. Those almost makes up for forcing a part of the country to sit through Las Vegas at Denver (ugh!).

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?
