2019 NFL Divisional Round Playoff Games – Betting Picks Against Spread
I went 5-2-1 against the spread and with my over/under picks last week.
All four games this weekend should be fun to watch, something that has become uncommon the last few years with injuries severely depleting playoff teams. The only backup quarterback playing this week is Eagles QB Nick Foles, who led them to a Super Bowl win last year.
Should the Patriots be an underdog at home against the Chargers?
Can the Colts knockout the Chiefs from the playoffs again?

2019 NFL Wild Card Playoff Games – Betting Picks Against Spread
I finished the year 133-111-12 against the spread during the NFL regular season.
Since there aren’t many games in the playoffs, I also pick over/under point totals as well.
These four games are pretty close, so we aren’t seeing any double-digit point spreads like we’ve seen the last few Wild Card Weekends.
Can the Eagles pull off the upset and make another improbable Super Bowl run?

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 Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 17
Week 17 can be a crap shoot. Teams rest some of their stars and there’s always one ‘out of nowhere’ performance by a backup that can sway a championship game.
Many leagues had their championship in Week 16, but needing a strong showing Week 17 just makes a league more interesting. A team can make a huge comeback from a poor score in the first week of the championship.
Should you automatically bench a guy whose team has nothing left to play for?

2018 NFL Week 16 – Betting Picks Against Spread
I went 9-7 against the spread last week.
Week 16 usually has a ton of stinkers on the schedule, but there are some interesting games being played this weekend…and thankfully there isn’t a Thursday game on the schedule.
This week isn’t completely void of potential blowouts as there are a handful of double-digit point spreads…which are pretty darn difficult to cover in the National Football League.
The Ravens, Titans and Colts are battling for the final Wild Card spot in the AFC. Will any of these teams choke this weekend?

2018 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 16
Welcome to Championship Week(s).
Based on how your league is structured, this could be your lone Championship game or first of two weeks. I’m a fan of not including Week 17 in your fantasy league, but it does make things interesting with stars resting before the Playoffs.

2018 NFL Week 15 – Betting Picks Against Spread
I went 8-8 against the spread last week.
I may have went .500 last week, but I did personally benefit from Raiders and Dolphins moneyline bets. I didn’t bet a ton on those underdog moneylines, but it put me in the black for the weekend.
It’s time to start figuring out if a team still has anything left to play for this season. All the potential playoff teams haven’t clinched a specific seed yet, so there aren’t any that are resting their guys (but it could happen next week).
Also, teams like the Raiders, who will not benefit from a win, are still playing hard (see: last week’s win). Don’t automatically go against a team that you feel is tanking. There are 53 guys on that team still playing for another paycheck next season.

2018 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 15
We are in playoff mode.
I took a week off of writing about fantasy football due to, um, life. I was just so darn busy and had to make a couple long trips during the week. I had no time to sit down and pump out my fantasy suggestions or go in-depth with my NFL betting picks.
I made the postseason in all but one of my leagues this season (I stashed Le’Veon Bell in that failed league). I wish everyone luck as you (hopefully) move into the championship game next week.

2018 NFL Week 14 – Betting Picks Against Spread
I went 7-8-1 against the spread last week.
I’ve been traveling a lot this week and I haven’t had a ton of time to write up my fantasy football and NFL football picks against the spread. I have done a lot of research, but it has just come down to putting ‘pen to paper’ (or the equivalent of today’s technology).
I was unable to carve enough time to write up a fantasy football post this week, but I at least needed to post my betting picks. I wasn’t able to give any insight into my picks, but I put as much time in the picking the games as usual.

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 13
There are finally no more bye weeks left in the NFL season…but injuries are still knocking out decent fantasy players, so depth is still as important than ever.
Also, you will start to see more and more teams that are ‘out of contention’ start to sit their star players…or star players will begin to sit for relatively minor injuries.
You could have some logjams are different positions now that a full sixteen-game schedule is underway. We will try to help you whittle down your decisions.
