2021 NFL Week 17 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 9-7 against the spread last week.

COVID-19 is still running roughshod through the NFL. The list of players in COVID protocol keeps growing every single day. Luckily, asymptomatic players should be able to get off the list faster than in previous weeks due to new guidelines.

I would suggest placing your bets on Saturday night to try to avoid surprises. I was lucky last week and my bets weren’t destroyed by new COVID cases. Last week, I placed my bets Wednesday evening and I wouldn’t advise that unless you want to lock in an advantageous point spread.

2021 NFL Week 16 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 10-6 against the spread last week.

COVID-19 is running rampant in NFL locker rooms right now. I had to delay my betting picks by a day last week just due to the flood of names coming in. I had to delay it again this week due to games being pushed back to Tuesday night.

I fully expect some more game-changing names to land in COVID protocols by this weekend. I fear it will be like this until the Super Bowl.

Will the Buccaneers bounce-back from a shut-out loss?

2021 NFL Week 15 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 9-4-1 against the spread last week.

As of Wednesday evening, there are 90 NFL players on the COVID list. There are many key players that will miss this weekend’s games. I actually had a large chunk of this written on Tuesday, but as more and more names were placed on the list, I decided to wait an extra day to post my NFL betting picks. This could become the norm due to the variant’s infection rate.

I only had one loss after the early games on Sunday, but the late games really destroyed my hopes of a huge week. I did hit a nice Lions moneyline play which kept me in the black this weekend.

2021 NFL Week 13 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 6-9 against the spread last week.

I had a rough week and by far the worst showing of the season. I had a couple close losses, but those are still big, fat L’s at the pay window.

We have a rough idea which teams are in the playoff race and which teams that could soon pack it in the for the season. We could still see a few surprises though.

I’ve had a couple up and down weeks recently, so it was nice to have big week heading into Thanksgiving.

I hope I didn’t just jinx myself for bringing that up.

2021 NCAA Football – Week 12 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 15-10 against the spread last week.

I had an alright week against the spread, but Purdue really let me down. They were playing so darn well and they just hit a wall against Ohio State. It was ugly and my hail may Purdue moneyline play was a lost cause by the end of the first quarter.

After a week of weak SEC games, there are a few solid games to watch this week. Arkansas at Alabama is one many are looking forward to, but the Razorbacks secondary could fold early.

I went 7-7 against the spread last week. The late games on Sunday bailed me out or the week would have been a disaster.
