Dolphin’d

by

Hahahahahahhahahaha!
Ok, got that out of the way.

The New England Patriots looked absolutely anemic in their beating by the Dolphins on Sunday night, and raises some big, furry eyebrows as to how their going to progress in the playoffs.

They just needed to win, and they were through to home field advantage in the playoffs.
How hard could it be to beat the Dolphins?
Ryan Fitzpatrick and is his beard?

The Dolphins played off their heads, challenging the Pats at home and making the New England defense look befuddled.
Fitzmagic sprinkled his dust all over the field, hitting targets at will and moving the ball with ease.

The Patriots were expected to be on return form after their handling of the Bills last week, so what happened here?

It’s hard to say really, as Tom Brady actually looked human.
When was the last time you saw TB12 throw a pick six?
Well, he did.

Instead of having a week off, the Patriots have to face off against the Titans next week in a chilly grudge match.
The Titans were able to dismantle the Texans with ease on Sunday.
This was the Texans team who beat the Patriots a few weeks ago, so it doesn’t look good for the Pats heading into a match-up with Henry and Tannehill.

‘Do your job’.
Obviously that wasn’t done.

Join us at the Long Acre pub in Covent Garden to watch this late match up on Saturday night.

We will also be offering some great betting options with BetRegal that night.

Join in our DraftKings League where you can also win some great cash and prizes.

See you next weekend.

Wades Late Picks

by

Greetings from Canada, where the games are a reasonable 5 hrs behind the U.K.

As I sit in a WildWings bar, scoffing some of the 101 flavours of chicken wings, I am struck by the crazy 1st game scores. Loads of teams are playing out of their heads, while others are trying to steady theirs.

Upon looking at the scores & spreads I have adjusted some of my 4pm game picks.

-9 Titans vs Texans

This game first came up as a 3 point spread, then rocketed to 9. The Texans are sitting loads of players, so you can see why. 9 points though? That’s just a bit much for my taste given how low these first game scores have been. I can’t see them making it that high. Texans cover.

Redskins vs -13 Cowboys

The Redskins have been like herpes this season, infecting & itching the opposition. The Cowboys need a win, but 13 points against a team who has been getting under the skin of every team? Doubtful. Heck, they might even win. Redskins cover.

-3.5 Eagles vs Giants

Go Daniel go! These two teams have had a wild season with each other, & this game will be the same. But remember the adage that ‘a team that needs to win, rarely does.’ Giants will make this game tough. Giants cover.

Steelers vs -1 Ravens

The Ravens will barely care about this game as they want to stay healthy. The Steelers want to go out with a bang, boom & happy ending. They will be motivated to finish 9-7 for the season & they should. Steelers win.

Make your bets on BetRegal, & see how you do with my picks.

Put down a tenner on these & make a nifty £124.90!

Good luck!

Wade’s Week 17 Picks

by


Are you still fat and drunk from the holidays? Then buckle in for Week 17 of the NFL, which can be as exciting/ boring/ unpredictable as a family Christmas dinner.
There are a few games that really matter in the playoff race, and some that are a fart in the wind to cap out the week.

For some of the teams that have already secured a playoff spot, they are more concerned with resting their good players, and thus the games become incredibly difficult to handicap.
Also, teams will be watching the scores of other games, and will adjust the beatdown facto they lay on the other teams-or lay-off.
This adds a wacky nugget element to sports betting.
To help you out, I have made some of my predictions to help out your betting options.

Make sure you check out our BetRegal offer. Just deposit £10 and spend it on a bet, and you get ANOTHER free £10 bet to make on another offer.

We have our DraftKings League set up as well, so pop on over and set up your team for today.

Wildcard Saturday is just around the corner, and we will be showing ALL of the NFL Playoffs at the Long Acre pub in Covent Garden. For £7 you get entry and a welcome beer.

Ok, let’s take a look at some of the big games this Sunday.

-13 Saints (12-3) vs Panthers (5-10) +46

Christian McCaffrey must be tired. He has been carrying this team on his back/ legs and ego this season, and it has been a very disappointing one. What will happen next season with Cam Newton, and can they fade out this season with some dignity?
The Saints are fired up. They have 12 wins under their belt, but it’s the 3 losses that are the scary ones. They have shown some inconsistent play during some of these games, and that’s not the blueprint you want to take into these playoff games.
The Panthers won’t be motivated at home, but the crowd will be treated to a high-scoring affair.
Alvin Kamara looks to have a beast of a game, so factor him into your fantasy line-up.
The Saints are looking at home field advantage, so they will be ready to run up the score to get it that way.
Saints win big. 

Dolphins (4-11) vs -15.5 Patriots (12-3) +44.5

‘At least we’re not the Bengals!’
The Dolphins had a pretty miserable season, but at least they were able to not fully trash bag the season, and walk out with 4 wins.
Ryan Fitzpatrick brought his magic to many of these games, and although they won’t get the first draft pick, they will be able to slowly start rebuilding the team.
This is a tough game, because the Patriots need a win, but they don’t need a beating of the fish.
As long as they win, they’re in-but they will be watching the Chiefs score to determine how far that beating goes.
Look for Brady to roll up some big scores early on, then let off the gas after the first half, once they know what the playoff implications are.
I can see Fitzy going out with a bang in the second half, unless he gets demolished by the Pats D.
Dolphins cover. 

-13 Packers (12-3) vs Lions (3-11-1)

The Lions have had a worse season than lions being kept in an Eastern European circus.
Too many injuries, and a disappointing tough schedule have kept them in the NFC north basement.
The Packers are sitting pretty, but they need to win to secure a home field position.
Again, they will look to put up a big score, then start to coast, but unlike the Dolphins, the Lions don’t have any assets to allow them to keep this game close.
Packers win big.

LA Chargers (5-10) vs -9 Chiefs (11-4)

The Chiefs are in the playoffs, but how far are they in? Just the tip, or the full shaft?
Kansas will also be keeping an eye on the Patriots game to see how their future holds.
In the crazy chance that the Dolphins actually beat the Patriots, KC can secure home field advantage, and make the season a lot tougher for anyone willing to visit the midwest.
The Chargers have a solid front D, so look for them to chase Patrick Mahomes all over the field.
LA is one of those teams who won’t let up in this game. It’s their final season in the old stadium, so it’s a new start and new home going forward.
There will probably be more hot dog vendors in the stand than there will be Chargers fans.
Chargers cover.

I will be outlining what some of the good parlay pick options are this week, so make sure you head over to BetRegal and take me up on my predictions.

Happy Sunday everyone!

Saturday NFL

by

Well that was a nice treat. A trio of playoff implication games on Saturday that showed who really is ready to move forward.

Jameis Winston plays all kinds of ugly. From the 2 INTs he had to start the game, it looked like it was going to be a Texas beating. But boy did he impress, tossing large to tie the game heading into the half.

DeShaun Watson was chased all over the field, as Jason Pierre-Paul rattled DW all night.

The Texans ultimately prevailed, but not without some lingering questions moving forward.

The Titans have ample ammo now to find those weak holes in the armour of the Texans.

Ready to play yet JJ?

The Patriots do it again.

Despite Julian Edelman being banged up, he was able to find numerous holes in the Bills coverage to make some great plays.

The Bills & Josh Allen didn’t let up-fighting back for scores & respect as they managed to keep this a tight game.

More importantly, the Patriots demonstrated their roadmap to the finals, executing a patient & effective play set of progression.

They used the run & roll outs in equal measure to score & keep the pressure on.

Their D kept gunning after Josh Allen, creating loads of frustration & wasted 3rd downs.

Full credit to the Bills for a close game, but they’ll need to really elevate their play if they get a pop at the Pats again.

The Rams were in full battering mode, as they choked out the Niners attempts to get the ball moving.

They would eventually lose to a last minute kick by Robbie Gould to eliminate the Rams & push the 49ers further into the playoffs.

The game was very somber however, as Niners backup QB C.J. Beathard was dealing with the loss of his brother, who was tragically stabbed in a bar earlier.

The team was able to rally despite the sadness, & constant pressure of the Rams D.

The 49ers have left themselves exposed as of late, & will really need to find that extra gear if they want to have a chance of shutting down the big NFC guns.

Good luck on the Sunday games, & make sure you take our Sunday tips to bet with BetRegal.
