2026 NFL Week 4 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Leave a reply

Brock Purdy dottedI went 7-9 in the third week of the 2026 NFL season.

I think I’m 0-3 on Thursday Night Football games. I have historically done very well on those – not this year.

The Atlanta Falcons played pretty darn good with QB Michael Penix back. They face a much improved Saints team on Monday Night Football this week.

Caleb Williams had to sit out last week do to a hamstring injury that occurred in Week 2. Case Keenum turned back the clock and was impressive in last week’s win.

How will the Giants look without QB Jaxson Dart?

2026 NFL Week 3 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Leave a reply

https://americaswhiteboy.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/jared-goff-lions-dotted.jpgI went 8-8 in the second week of the 2026 NFL season.

I start out rough, ended rough, but was near-perfect in the middle.

It’s always bad when one of the worst teams in the league (Atlanta) is featured in one of the Primetime games. I guess we are lucky they aren’t playing against the lowly Dolphins.

Can the Saints keep up their improved play this week? Will Bears QB Caleb Williams (hamstring) be fully-healed by Monday night?

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.

2025 NFL Week 9 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 7-6 against the spread during the eighth week of the 2025 NFL season.

We are back to having fourteen games on the schedule this week.

We have a few marquee games this week. The biggest one being the Kansas City Chiefs travelling to Buffalo to face the Bills. Kansas City is on a roll and are playing like the best team in the league.

We have quite a few quarterbacks listed as day-to-day heading into this week’s games. Niners QB Brock Purdy, Arizona QB Kyler Murray and Washington QB Jayden Daniels playing statuses aren’t clear right now.

2025 NFL Week 8 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 8-7 against the spread during the seventh week of the 2025 NFL season.

We have a light schedule this week with six teams on a bye week.

There are quite a few games dealing with notable injuries at quarterback that could affect betting lines the closer we get to Sunday.

The major injury status to keep an eye on is Ravens QB Lamar Jackson, who just returned to practice, but as of Thursday morning, his status is up in the air for their game against the Bears.

2025 NFL Week 7 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 6-9 against the spread during the sixth week of the 2025 NFL season.

I got the panted beat off me last week. It was by far the worst week I’ve had against the spread, in the NFL or college football.

We have almost another full slate of games this week, with only two teams on bye.

How will the Buccaneers passing offense fare against a banged up Lions secondary?

Can the Bears win their four game in-a-row?

2025 NFL Week 6 – Betting Picks Against Spread

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

I started out very rough with the early games, but was able to run the table on the afternoon games.

Last week, we saw a lot of outright upsets against perennial powerhouses. The Eagles, Bills and Chiefs all went down, which probably hasn’t happened in the same week in a long time.

Will the Lions cover on the road against the Kansas City Chiefs?

2025 NFL Week 3 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 11-5 against the spread during the second week of the 2025 NFL season.

I could have easily went 13-3 had I not pivoted so early on two of my picks. I usually hold steady, barring injuries, with my own preseason rankings. I tend to view a season in four parts, so I alter my rankings after a team’s fourth game.

We have a huge game on Monday Night Football. The Lions and Ravens meet, which has a shot to be a Super Bowl preview.

2025 NFL Week 2 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 7-8-1 against the spread during the first week of the 2025 NFL season.

I started the year ‘on mild’, but I like this week’s slate of games and betting lines.

We have some big games like the Eagles traveling to Kansas City to have a Super Bowl rematch with the Chiefs. Also, I think the Broncos at Colts game will be a nice litmus test game for both teams.

Any longshot underdogs covering this weekend?

2025 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 1

I’m so happy to have fantasy football back!

This year’s class of rookie quarterbacks are bucking the recent trend of starting right away. QB Cam Ward (Tennessee Titans) is the only rookie quarterback starting in the opening week.

We have a lot of new faces in new places across the league. Veteran quarterbacks like Russell Wilson, Aaron Rodgers and Geno Smith are on new teams. Will any of them shine this weekend?

Which sleepers are you targeting this season?

Here is our Fantasy Football Sit/Start for Week 1 of the 2025 NFL season…and enjoy our awesome MS Paint masterpiece of QB Tua Tagovailoa of the Miami Dolphins.

2024 NFL Week 17 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I had a rough 8-7-1 record against the spread in Week 16.

First off, to have a Wednesday afternoon game this late in the season is just psychotic. Teams like to keep things more secret this time of the year. It’s insanely difficult to handicap games on Tuesday night for games that mostly happen on Sunday.

We have games nearly every single day from Christmas Day through Sunday. I’m not sure if I want these Christmas Day games to be a hit or not since games will end up on Tuesdays and Wednesday a few times each decade.

2024 NFL Week 16 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I had a rough 11-5 record against the spread in Week 15.

It was nice to have a rebound after a couple weeks of middling results. I feel like there was value in many of the betting lines last week.

We have a few more double-digit point spreads this week Don’t get too comfortable now that a 17-point spread covered last week. Double-digit point spreads are still a tough cover in the NFL.

Can the Detroit Lions stay afloat amid a flurry of injuries?
