13 Tips

by

Well, it’s already Week 13 in the NFL, where the heck did the season go?

Thanksgiving is a milky fart behind us, as the decorations set the tone for the season ahead.
With that being said, we offer you our Week 13 Tips, so that you can use our average advice to make stellar NFL picks.

Wade McElwain and Ryan Cull are fresh off their Week 12 picks, and ready to rock your world for this Sunday.

Ryans Picks

The Buffalo Bills may have won against the plucky Colts, but the division gets real this week, as the Bills host the Patriots, in what will most likely be a dildo filled afternoon.
Ryan won’t be betting on this game, but he does like his Bills to eek out a win.

Elsewhere, Ryan likes Justin Herbert and the LA Chargers (+3) to pop into Cincy and make a big old mess.
He thinks that not only will LA march into the Bengals tiger pit and cover, but that they will also win on the road as well!

The Las Vegas Raiders (-2.5) have had an abysmal turd of a season thus far, and it has nothing to do with their game play.
Coaching and injuries will be in the rear view for this game, as Ryan likes the Raiders to cause some hometown injuries to Cincinnati in a home win.

The Seattle Seahawks (+3.5) will win at home! That’s Ryan’s big pick of the week, as he has Russell Wilson and the boys dishing out justice in a tight win over the 49ers on Sunday night.
Will Russ cook again, or burn his fingers trying?

Lastly, Ryan is horsing around on the Broncos (+10) to cover on the high flying Chiefs.
While he thinks that Patrick Mahomes and company will easily dispatch Denver, it will be a lot closer than people would figure.

If you want to make money on Ryan’s brain, take the Chargers, Raiders, Seahawks and Broncos!
A £10 bet will net you £141.20

Wade’s Picks

Wade had some top tips to choose in Week 12? Did you take them?
His upsets might have paid off last week, let’s see about this week.

The New York Jets (+7) are back with Zach, as they face the Hurts-less Eagles on Sunday.
Gardner Minshew and his mania will be taking over, offering the Jets a window to cover against a Philly team looking to run.
It’s going to be cold, wet, and a miserable day for Philly.
Jets cover.

The Texans (+10) are another of the worst teams in the league, but Tyrod has a habit of making things closer than they appear.
Indianapolis Colts have a habit of losing to bad teams, and that could happen this week.
Maybe not lose, but give the Texans a bigger window than they need.

What’s up with the Washington FT (-2.5)? Losing Fitzmagic early in the season, the WFT adapted, and relied on their running game to eek out some wins over big teams.
Wade likes the WFT to disrupt the Raiders and home, and squeak out a cheeky little win while they are at it.

The Pittsburgh Steelers (+4.5) season is over. Big Ben has already been heard saying that this is his ‘last season’, and what a way to whimper out.
The Steelers at least had a playoff chance last year, but highly unlikely that they will make the playoffs this year.
With all the injuries on the Ravens squad, Wade likes the Steelers and their running game to keep it close.

If you want to take Wade’s picks of the Jets, Texans, Washington and Steelers, a £10 wager will net you a solid £151.20.
That’s some Christmas present joy right there in 13 tips!

Dec the Halls

by

Ho Ho Ho y’all, it’s Christmas time in the NFL!

With an expanded NFL season, COVID in the rear view’ish mirror, and AB once again suspended, it’s time to Dec the Halls in this early December podcast.

Wade McElwain and Ryan Cull are here with their Week 13 predictions, picks and general gut feels for what lies ahead this weekend.

Many of you/us are already finding that your NFL Fantasy season is almost over, to those of you are already out-we sympathise and can offer you a few nuggets of information to take into your long walk into summer.

Among some of the games the guys discuss for Week 13 includes:

-7.5 Vikings (5-6) vs Lions (0-10-1)  +46.5

Oh Minnesota, what does the future hold?
The Vikings have been disrupting the chances of some of the league’s top contenders, while keeping themselves on the periphery of qualifying.
Kirk Cousins has been trashable, while losing Dalvin Cook is going to affect their chances the next few weeks.

The poor, poor, Detroit Lions.
Like the vacant city that birthed them, the team is lacking hope moving forward.
Poor Detroit.

Ryan thinks that the Vikes will open a can of whoop-ass on the sad Lions, kicking them to the curb in an epic beatdown.

Wade likes the Vikings to keep the game close-but not too close,  as has been most of their games this season.

Ryan- Vikings 37 Lions 17
Wade- Vikings 28 Lions 20

-10 Colts (6-6) vs Texans (2-9)  +45.5

The Colts smell blood in the water around the struggling Titans, opening up a chance for them to make a playoff run on the back of some great games as of late.
It’s still Carson Wentz at QB though…

The Texans were never in this season, but they have made some games trouble for some of the top teams, as they act as a Christmas gremlin moving towards the post season.

Ryan likes Jonathan Taylor and the Colts to do a runner on the Texans, laying an epic beatdown that will be felt throughout the league.

Wade remembers that the Colts often lose to bad teams, and the Texans are a bad team, which is why he thinks it will be closer than people think.

Ryan- Colts 33 Texans 17
Wade- Colts 28 Texans 24

Giants (4-7) vs -4 Dolphins (5-7) + 41

This could easily be the contender for ‘worst game on Sunday’, as these two teams meet in a Miami stinker.

New York has been a real disappointment this season, with Saquon going down quick, and Daniel Jones struggling to command leadership of the team.
Firing Jason Garrett was just the tip of a very dirty member.

Ryan likes the G-Men to overcome this week, even if it looks like Mike Glennon will be under the hood. He’s tipping big blue to not only upset, but potentially win this one.

Wade likes the way Tua has been playing as of late, and that a nice warm home bath, should help the Dolphins focus on getting win number 6.

Ryan- Giants 23 Dolphins 20
Wade- Dolphins 21 Giants 13

Washington FT (5-6) vs -2.5 Raiders (6-5)  +50

Washington started the season as snitches who need stitches, but have quietly been dismantling some of the league’s top teams.
Even without a premier QB, Washington has relied on short passes and a solid running game.

Las Vegas has had a season to forget, with enough drama to start a new Bravo network.
Derek Carr continues to chew up the yards, despite not having too many tools to toss to.

Ryan is a Raider this weekend, as he likes Las Vegas to double down on the FT, and pull out a big win at home.

Wade thinks that WFT is still not done wrecking the futures of teams, and likes them to run over Vegas in an upset.

Ryan- Raiders 23 WFT 17
Wade- WFT 30 Raiders 24

Pack at Home

Anyone who is a fan of ‘The Office’ knows that Brian Baumgartner is freaking awesome as Kevin.

So it only makes sense for the Green Bay Packers to be the biggest ‘Office’ fans, given that Aaron Rodgers is the only NFL QB to make an appearance on the show.

What would happen if Kevin from ‘The Office’ looked after the stadium during the bye week?

Comedy gold.

Week 11 Picks

by

It’s tips ahoy NFL fans, as Wade and Ryan make their picks for Sunday.

In our Week 11 Picks, the guys try to help you find some betting value in your Sunday Funday of action.

While we don’t have any betting partners here in the UK, we do recommend you look around at some of the betting sites and offers.
Many UK betting sites aren’t very NFL savvy, so you will have to dumb down your knowledge to use them.

Clapham

What are you doing Sunday? Need a place to watch the games? Then pop into the Sports Bar and Grill Clapham, right on the high street and near the Clapham Junction station.

The SB&G-C (as we like to shorten it to) has all the NFL games you need, plus Redzone, cold beer and even hotter wings.

Book a table to avoid missing out on a table with your own TV!

Ryan’s Picks

Like a true junkie, Ryan is still coming down from his Falcons fix a few weeks ago. He’s been clean over a week now, and Thursday’s beat down by the Patriots D settled his favour on them.

This week, Ryan is big on Baltimore -5 to beat down the Bears. Despite Lamar maybe not playing, he likes the overall game of the Ravens to squish down the Bears at home.

He likes the Vikes +1 to give the Packers a home stun, taking a victory over their NFC opponents. Is this the time that the tools of Minnesota shines?

Russell Wilson & the Seahawks +2.5 should be cooking Sunday according to Ryan’s pick, as he likes them to fight off the feisty Cardinals in a drizzly home cover.

Lastly Ryan is puffy on Big Ben and the Steelers +6 to gouge out a tight match against the Chargers, keeping them within the -6 spread.

If you want Ryan’s picks, take Ravens, Vikings, Seahawks, & Steelers. A £10 wager will win you £151.20.

Wade’s Picks

Bears +5 are fighting the Ravens this Sunday at Soldier Field, but Wade is full on Beatdown mode for this one, despite losing Khalil Mack.
Wade thinks that the Bears will easily cover, and possibly win against a limp squad lacking Lamar Jackson.

Washington FT +3 has its hands full with Superman on Sunday, but let’s see how super he is.
WFT might be tuckered after an emotional savaging of the Bucs last week, or they might be even more inspired to be better than their 3 wins.
Wade thinks the Panthers will stumble at home.

The Chiefs are back, but so are the Cowboys +2.5…and Dallas just has a better team.
Perhaps Patrick Mahomes will have another stellar day, or more likely, we will see the Chiefs of the early part of the season.
Dallas can run relentlessly over Kansas City, and they will most likely do that.

Put your hands up for Detroit +13. No, seriously guys, please. Detroit could really use it.
Fresh off a tough tie against the Steelers, the Lions lose Jared Goff in a 13 point underdog game to the Browns. The same Cleveland team that got dick punched by the Patriots last week.
Detroit will lose, but not by that much. They have a heck of a running game, and nothing to lose.

If you want to roll with Wade, take the Bears, Washington, Cowboys, & Lions. A £10 wager will hit you back with £162.10

That’s it for the Week 11 tips. Let us know how you make out.

Week 10 Memes

by

Another wild and wacky week in the NFL, as winners turned to losers, losers continued to lose, and the Lions finally got a tie.
Hopefully Dan Patrick won’t have a coronary now that the pressure is kind of a smidge.

To honour the football that just happened over the past 72 hours, we give you Week 10 Memes.

Tom Brady look a loss to the balls on Sunday, after coming off a refreshing bye. The Washington Football Club might not have any naughty emails from TB12, but they have his number.

Here are some hilarious memes that sum up the week and thoughts from week 10.

Week 9 Memes

by

What a crazy week that was in the NFL!

First Von Miller kicks it all of by making a move to the Rams, and then Henry Ruggs III made some truly bone headed decisions that took lives and his career.

Then of course there were the wild and wacky week 9 games, with the Broncos laying a major turd on the chests of the Dallas Cowboys.

Not to be outdone, the Jacksonville Jaguars and Urban Meyer gave it the old ‘college girl try’, as they were able to stifle the Buffalo Bills and irk out a week 9 win.

Oh yeah, and Aaron Rodgers probably only tells us what we want to hear, and doesn’t really care about what people actually think.
That’s just the impression that people are getting.

Until then, enjoy these memes to make your week 10 kick off in style!
