2018 NFL Week 17 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 10-6 against the spread last week.

Week 17 hasn’t been very eventful the last couple of years. There wasn’t even worth a flex last year and there wasn’t a game on Sunday Night Football.

The Colts/Titans game was flexed to Sunday night this year. The winner of that game will earn a playoff spot. If the Texans lose to the Jaguars, the Colts or Titans could win the AFC South with a win.

There are currently only two teams that are locked into their spots in the playoffs (Saints & Cowboys). Every other spot is up for grabs, so this week will be worth your time.

2018 NFL Week 13 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 8-6-1 against the spread last week.

I was a half-point away from going 3-0 against the spread for the third-straight year. Oh well, I ate a lot of turkey and took a nap during the Redskins/Cowboys game, so all was not lost.

We are back to a full sixteen-game slate through the rest of the season. A lot more writing to do every week and analysis to do, but college football regular season is ending, so it all evens out.

Can Baltimore Ravens rookie QB Lamar Jackson start his career with three-straight wins?

2018 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 12

This is the last week of bye weeks and there are only two teams sitting out, but they are two huge teams in fantasy, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Los Angeles Rams.

There’s a chance there you could be in the need for a lot on your team. The Chiefs and Saints are loaded with fantasy studs and you could be hurting this week.

There are some good match-ups on Thanksgiving that could benefit your fantasy team. Are there any players on the Falcons worth picking up?

Here is our Fantasy Football Sit/Start for Week 12 of the 2018 NFL season…and enjoy our awesome MS Paint masterpiece of Los Angeles Chargers QB Philip Rivers

2018 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 11

There are six teams on bye this week. Buffalo, Cleveland, Miami, New England, New York (Jets) and San Francisco are all off.

You could be in need of replacements for a fantasy stud like QB Tom Brady. The rest of the teams on bye don’t have many must-start guys and are mostly guys that fill up your flex spots week-to-week.

Most leagues have their trade deadline this week or next. If you’re in a dynasty league, it’s time to pull the trigger on some trades if you’re clearly out of the playoff picture.

Here is our Fantasy Football Sit/Start for Week 11 of the 2018 NFL season…and enjoy our awesome MS Paint masterpiece of Chicago Bears QB Mitchell Trubisky.

2018 NFL Week 8 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 8-5-1 against the spread last week.

I started out 0-2 against the spread, but went 8-2-1 after the London game ended on Sunday. I really needed that.

It might be time to abandon a team or jump on the bandwagon on a team that has struggled against the spread. Market corrections are coming soon for some of these teams.

Can Jacksonville QB Blake Bortles make a huge turnaround and keep his starting job? He will need a huge performance in London.

2018 NFL Week 7 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 7-7-1 against the spread (again) last week.

I once again struggled with last week’s early games, but the late games were nice to me. I hope to kick this .500 week trend.

It’s almost time for weather reports to become a factor. It’s not usually a huge deal now that most teams have some sort of retractable roofs. It’s something to keep in mind going forward.

Can Bears QB Mitchell Trubisky get a big win over the New England Patriots?

2018 NFL Week 4 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 7-9 last week and missed two games by a half-point. I was also surprised by the Bills/Vikings and Jaguars/Titans outcomes. I did not have a very good overall week. I guess it should have been expected in a week with a ton of -3 games. It was going to be a difficult week to handicap.

This is another week with plenty close games. There are also some home underdogs worth keeping an eye on.

There are a handful of new quarterbacks starting this week. Rookie quarterbacks Baker Mayfield and Josh Rosen make their first starts and Niners second-year QB C.J. Beathard takes over for injured Jimmy Garoppolo.

Will any of the new faces make an impact for their teams?

2018 NFL Week 3 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 7-8-1 against the spread last week, but I am still over .500 on the season.

There are a ton of -3 games out there. This week should be a very fun week of NFL football

Eagles QB Carson Wentz is set to return from injury and face the Colts. The offense should improve as they were a bit stagnant in both games so far.

Are the Steelers locker room imploding? They are without Le’Veon Bell due to a contract dispute and now start WR Antonio Brown is causing problems. Can they bounce back this week on Monday Night Football?

We pick ever NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 3 of the 2018 NFL season.

2018 NFL Week 2 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I started the year off on a good note by going 9-6-1 against the spread in Week 1.

Not only did some teams surprise everyone (Jets & Bucs), but there were some nice underdog moneylines that paid out.

We didn’t get out of Week 1 without dealing with some injuries. RB Leonard Fournette, WR Doug Baldwin and TE Delanie Walker all may miss multiple weeks due to injuries. It’s important to keep an eye on injury reports early in the year. There are some big names on there this week.

2018 NFL Week 1 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Were you one of those guys who bet on NFL preseason games?

I get it. You were excited to wager on football again and just jumped the gun a little. It’s now time to bet on some games that count!

We had a pretty good year betting on NFL games last year. We went 144-115-16 and hit on a few underdog moneylines to come out in the black for the season.

There are a ton of new quarterbacks making their first starts for their new teams this weekend. Veteran quarterbacks like Kirk Cousins, Alex Smith and Sam Bradford hope to lead their new teams to successful seasons. Also, quarterbacks Andrew Luck, Deshaun Watson and Ryan Tannehill return from injuries. Which quarterback will make the biggest impact in Week 1?

Super Bowl 52 – Betting Picks Against Spread & Prop Bets

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 vig 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 (and the most absurd) prop bets for Super Bowl 52 (or Super Bowl LII for Roman numeral fans)…and we also pick the game against the spread.

2018 NFL Conference Championship Games – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 3-0-1 against the spread last week, but whiffed in my over/under picks. The last-second touchdown from Vikings WR Stefon Diggs helped me avoid a loss. I was really hoping they would kick the extra point, but they downed it instead, which lead to a push.

Weather ‘might’ be a factor since both Conference Championship games are being played outdoors. Keep a close eye on weather reports and make sure there isn’t a snowstorm or an arctic blast that pops up this weekend.

Should the Patriots really be a nine-point favorite against the Jaguars?

Can Case Keenum pull out another miracle and lead the Vikings to the Super Bowl?

We pick both NFL Conference Championship games against the spread.
