NFL Betting Picks for Week 5 (10/10/2021) - Spreads, Totals, and Moneylines
A solid 2-1 week in Week 4 and we had some nice wins. Dallas took care of business against a good Carolina team, but there was just no way the Cowboys were letting them have a chance in Jerry's World. Pittsburgh and Green Bay made us sweat, but overall that Steelers offense is in a... Read More
NFL Betting Picks for Week 4 (10/3/2021) - Spreads, Totals, and Moneylines
What a disgusting Week 3, as I went 0-3. The Lions made a late-minute push and if they would've tried to score a touchdown instead of playing it safe by kicking a field goal, they would have easily hit the team total. Washington got absolutely demolished by Buffalo and the Bucs and Rams went toe... Read More

When setting all of your article picks in the 1pm slate of games, it sets you up to make or break your day. Well, our day was broken.

NFL Betting Picks for Week 2 (9/19/21) - Spreads, Totals, and Moneylines
Man, some tough beats in Week 1. The Dolphins were the absolutely better team against the Patriots and should have had the lead heading into the locker room, but I bet the straight up 1H winner and they tied so we count it as a loss. San Francisco scared us all against Detroit, but they... Read More

Disaster Recovery - Week 9's Studs Turned Duds
The outdated thought in fantasy was that running backs carry the top end of a team, while the depth of wide receiver allowed managers to use many more options from that position. The latter remains true, but the former no longer is. There is no top end of the running back position. In Week 9,... Read More
