2020 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 4

We saw some new, young faces make a name for themselves last week. A few rookie wide receivers lead that list with Vikings rookie WR Justin Jefferson catching seven balls for 175 yards and a touchdown.

Texans QB Deshaun Watson started the season out against the Chiefs, Ravens and Steelers…can you name three worse teams to face to begin a season? Can he reverse course against the Vikings?

Will Bucs QB Tom Brady have a big game against the Chargers?

2020 NFL Week 3 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 8-8 against the spread last week.

We are starting to get some much-needed information to become more informed bettors. The issue this week comes from all the injuries that occurred to important players. There are a lot more unknowns than I was expecting this week.

There are a few players out there that could be game-time decisions this week. Some reports say that Niners QB Jimmy Garoppolo could play on Sunday. Keep an eye on injury reports this week for updates.

Can Seattle QB Russell Wilson lead the Seahawks to a cover against the Cowboys?

2020 NFL Week 1 – Betting Picks Against Spread

The first week of the 2020 NFL regular season is here!

It’s been a crazy offseason with the pandemic hitting causing the cancellation of the preseason games. We are going into this season pretty blind, but we at least have some beat reporters and television networks speaking with coaches on a regular basis.

There was a huge shuffling of quarterbacks this offseason that saw Tom Brady (Tampa Bay), Philip Rivers (Indianapolis) and Cam Newton (New England) starting for new teams.

Can Tom Brady lead Tampa Bay to a win against the New Orleans Saints?

2019 NFL Week 16 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 7-8-1 against the spread last week.

A few more playoff spots could be clinched this weekend. All of the potential playoff teams still have a lot to play for, so I don’t foresee any teams resting their starters.

There wasn’t a Thursday night game this week, but we do see our first Saturday games. There’s a couple of bangers on that day. The Bills/Patriots & Rams/Niners have playoff implications.

Can Ravens QB Lamar Jackson clinch the MVP award with a strong performance against the Browns?

2019 NFL Week 14 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 9-7 against the spread last week.

We have a full slate of games every week from this point forward. It’s just more opportunities for gamblers to try to break even or fall farther in the hole. I’m in the black for the year and I’m going to play it a bit conservative this week and not lay down any above average amounts. I dipped into my profits a bit on Black Friday.

There are a few marquee games this week with Baltimore facing Buffalo and Kansas City traveling to New England. The outcomes of both of those games will definitely have an effect on the AFC playoff race.

Can the 49ers keep the game close against the Saints?

2019 NFL Week 11 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I really don’t want to talk about last week. I’d rather just skip straight to my stellar college football picks, but since I’m transparent as hell, I was only 3-8-2 last week. It was my worst NFL betting week in more than a decade. It was just one of those weeks where nothing went right and my reads were off.

I feel much better about this week’s picks. There were some upsets last week and Vegas got the best of many of us, so you can’t hang your head about it.

There are a few starting quarterbacks that are coming back from injuries this week. Can Nick Foles get the win in his return for the Jaguars?

2019 NFL Week 10 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I had a rough 5-8-1 record last weekend.

Pretty bad outcome with last week’s picks. Not only that, but I’ve been dealing with either carpal tunnel syndrome or an arthritic thumb, which makes it pretty darn annoying to type or even play video games (I bought NBA 2k20 recently and it is collecting dust by my Xbox One). I have to wear a dumb brace until I get it checked out further later this week.

Enough about my woes, it’s time to turn my luck around and get back on track with my NFL picks against the spread. Let’s do this!

2019 NFL Week 8 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I finished 7-7 against the spread with my picks last week.

I struggled during the early games on Sunday, but did hit the rare trifecta of Primetime games (Thursday, Sunday and Monday). I needed those games to break even for the week.

The NFL trade deadline is October 29th. There have been a few trades that happened this week and chances are that a couple may still happen before this week’s slate of games. Keep an eye on the transactions and it could be smart to try and bet later in the week to avoid any possible blockbuster trades. My gut thinks the trades may be done for the week and next week will be the week where trades could screw up any early week bets.

2019 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 7

The Cleveland Browns, Pittsburgh Steelers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Carolina Panthers are out on bye this week.

The teams on bye aren’t filled with a ton of must-start players in fantasy, but you could have a flex spot open, or at most, you may need a wide receiver or two.

Now that we have a good chunk of games under our belt, there’s more and more information out there to help you make better, more informed decisions to build your lineups.

How will Titans QB Ryan Tannehill fare in his first start?

2019 NFL Week 6 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I finished 7-8 against the spread with my picks last week.

The Chicago Bears, Indianapolis Colts, Oakland Raiders and the Buffalo Bills are on byes this week, which means there are two less games to bet on.

We are down to only two unbeaten teams this season…and four teams that have yet to win a game. Will any of these teams get rid of the zero in their records this week?

The Redskins and Dolphins face off this week in a game between two teams still looking for their first win on the year. Which team will end their drought on Sunday?

2019 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 6

This is the first week of the 2019 NFL season that four teams on a bye.

The Buffalo Bills, Chicago Bears, Indianapolis Colts and the Oakland Raiders are off this week. Those four teams aren’t exactly stocked with huge fantasy studs, but there are enough players off this week that could alter your lineup.

Now that we have a good chunk of games under our belt, there’s more and more information out there to help you make better, more informed decisions to build your lineups.

2019 NFL Week 5 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I finished 8-7 against the spread with my picks last week.

The Miami Dolphins are on bye week, but we still have our fair share of double-digit point spreads this week.

The Browns finally lived up to the hype last week when they beat the Ravens 40-25. They face the Niners on Monday Night and are actually 3.5-point underdogs. Can the Browns score an underdog win in the Bay Area?

Will any backup quarterbacks lead their teams to a cover this week?
