2025 NFL Week 17 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Leave a reply

I went 9-5-1 in Week 15 of the NFL football season.

We have three games on Christmas Day this year. The NFL is putting the screws to the NBA, who once dominated the holiday.

I am fighting my way back to avoid my first losing season in all the years I’ve been posting my picks against the spread. Last week’s games helps close the deficit to just three games. That can easily be made up with two more of the regular season and the playoffs left.

We have a pair of new third-string quarterbacks taking the ball this week. The Commanders and Chiefs will both have new faces under center.

Can the Bears clinch the NFC North?

We pick almost every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 16 of the 2025 NFL season.

Leave a reply

We have an epic group of players in this week of through the mail autograph returns. This video contains 11 autograph successes.

We got Baseball Hall of Famer Larry Walker. He got in with his tenth ballot, which was long overdue. He was a great hitter, but many dinged him for playing his prime in the thin air of Colorado.

Other notable returns were Hall of Fame golfer Fred Couples and former San Francisco Giants pitcher Shawn Estes.

2025 NFL Week 16 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Leave a reply

I went 6-9 in Week 15 of the NFL football season.

I was extraordinarily late posting my picks, so I wasn’t able to pick the Thursday night game, so I only had 15 picks last week.

I need some big weeks to climb back and avoid my first-ever below .500 season since I started doing this many years ago.

We have some changes at quarterback this week, so there are a few tough games to handicap on the schedule.

I went 6-8 in Week 14 of the NFL football season.

I was extraordinarily late posting my picks, so I was unable to post my Thursday Night Football pick in time for the game.

We have some strange teams battling for their playoff lives right now. The Chiefs, Ravens and Bills could see their playoff hopes take a huge dive with losses this week. Those teams are usually on cruise control for their division crown, or at least have a lead to do so.

2025 NFL Week 14 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Due to some server maintenance issues, I missed my first week of football picks in over a decade. I hope you guys had a profitable Thanksgiving week.

I think there is some value in this week’s NFL betting lines. We have a few hot teams that aren’t getting much respect. The Bears are on fire, but are nearly a touchdown underdog against the Packers.

There are some good teams facing uphill battles to earn a playoff spot. Can the 6-6 Kansas City Chiefs make a run?

2025 NFL Week 11 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 6-8 against the spread during the tenth week of the 2025 NFL season.

I had a rough start to the games on Sunday, but thankfully, I nearly ran the table after that to keep myself from a disastrous week.

There are some fun games on the schedule, with only two teams out on bye.

The best game could be the Seahawks at Rams, which will help secure the leader in the NFC West.

2025 NFL Week 10 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 7-7 against the spread during the ninth week of the 2025 NFL season.

We have another week of with 14 games on the schedule.

I’ve been hovering around .500 for nearly the entire season. I needed to make some changes to my rankings after the midway point in the season. I moved some teams, but I didn’t do anything drastic.

The trade deadline was interesting this year. There were some big names that movies, but mostly on the defensive side. The Jets were the biggest seller at the deadline, but their season was already in the tubes.
