2021 NCAA Football – Week 4 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 11-13-1 against the spread last week.

I killed it in the early games on Saturday, but was was slaughtered with my afternoon and late night picks.

We are slowly getting into early days of in-conference games. We will get more historical data, which usually means tougher point spreads.

Wisconsin-transfer QB Jack Coan (now at Notre Dame) will start against his former team this weekend. Will the Badgers cover in Soldier Field?

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 4 of the 2021-22 NCAA Football season (September 25th, 2021).

2021 NFL Week 3 – Betting Picks Against Spread

kyler murray dotted finalI went 9-6-1 against the spread last week.

It could be time to change your mind on a few teams. The Panthers didn’t have many believers going into the season, but at this moment, adding QB Sam Darnold appears to be one of the smartest moves this offseason. Also, on the opposite end of the spectrum, the Colts could be in for a very long season.

Can the Vikings get their first outright win this week?

Will Justin Fields make his first NFL start or will the Bears hold off a few more weeks?

We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 3 of the 2021 NFL season.

2021 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 3

How is your team holding up so far this year?

If your quarterback struggles early in the season, how soon can you press the panic button?

It’s clearly a case-by-case basis, but it could be time to move on from Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa or Colts QB Carson Wentz. Tua is now banged up and Wentz’s chances of a bounce-back year is slipping now with a pair of injured ankles.

A few quarterbacks suffered some major injuries last week. Some will miss time, but most will play, albeit hobbled.

2021 NCAA Football – Week 3 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 14-10-1 against the spread last week.

After two weeks of college football, we are starting to get a better feel for which teams could make a jump from ‘possible bowl team’ to ‘contender’.

Ohio State was the first championship contender to suffer their first loss of the year. They struggled against Oregon and have fell in the polls.

Alabama faces Florida in what may assume will be the game of the week. Can young Bama QB Bryce Young continue is unreal start to his collegiate career?

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 3 of the 2021-22 NCAA Football season (September 18th, 2021).

2021 NFL Week 2 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 8-7-1 against the spread in the opening week.

Week 2 can be tricky for those who react too swiftly to the first week outcomes. You do need to be flexible, but there are always Week 1 aberrations. I would suggest that you look back at your preseason rankings and decide which teams impressed you enough to adjust their ranking and which ones you need to double-down this week and hope for a bounce-back performance

Can the Packers forget last week’s blowout loss and cover a double-digit point spread at home against the Lions?

Can the Ravens avenge last season’s loss to the Chiefs?

We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 2 of the 2021 NFL season.

2021 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 2

I hope you had a successful start to the fantasy football season.

I made some solid overall calls in Week 1, but I did whiff big on Saints QB Jameis Winston. I didn’t expect that output against the Packers.

There were only a couple injuries in Week 1 that will have lasting effects in fantasy. RB Raheem Mostert (knee) and Footballers QB Ryan Fitzpatrick (hip) will be out for the foreseeable future.

Which Ravens running back should you start against the Chiefs?

2021 NCAA Football – Week 2 Betting Picks Against Spread

I started the season with a rather uneventful 12-13 record. A few of my risks clearly didn’t pay off in Week 1. 

It was a fun week of football, even if I had a rough week against the spread. There were some nice upsets (Montana def. Washington) and there were a few quarterback prospects who fell on their face (I’m looking at you, Sam Howell).

There were a ton of transfers this offseason and a few really came up big with their new teams. Notre Dame QB Jack Coan was a real treat to watch.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 2 of the 2021-22 NCAA Football season (September 11th, 2021).

2021 NFL Week 1 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Are you ready to place your bets?

I went 152-121-8 against the spread last season. I hope this season will be a little less erratic with COVID issues, but it appears that will not be the case. I would suggest to hold off on placing any large bets until the day before kickoff. There will be a few games ruined by positive tests at some point this year.

There was a huge turnover with starting quarterbacks this offseason. A lot of new faces in new places. Will any of these veteran quarterbacks turn back the clock and play like their peak?

How will Cowboys QB Dak Prescott and Giants RB Saquon Barkley bounce-back from major injuries?

Can the Browns avenge last year’s playoff elimination against the Chiefs?

We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 1 of the 2021 NFL season.

2021 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 1

It’s finally time for the start of the National Football League season.

The NFL added a regular season game this year, so your fantasy football league playoff format could have changed.

It appears that we will see some of the rookie quarterbacks starting in Week 1. It’s a sure thing that Trevor Lawrence and Mac Jones will start and it wouldn’t surprise me if one or two other rookie QBs end up in a game this week.

How will new Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford in his first game with the team?

Here is our Fantasy Football Sit/Start for Week 1 of the 2021 NFL season…and enjoy our awesome MS Paint masterpiece of QB Trevor Lawrence of the Jacksonville Jaguars.
