Week 14 Review

by

 

The podcast review show is up, as Wade & Ryan look back at a shaky betting week in the NFL. Both guys went 8-6-2 for the week, which is good-but not great.
As we mentioned before, the last 3 weeks can have some unpredictable scores.

Some of the games the guys touch in on the podcast include:

Broncos 38 Texans 24

Way to go Drew Lock and the Broncos for making a season out of it. They exploded on the Texans who had no answer to the relentless onslaught of the Broncos deep ball. The Texans were totally outclassed, outgunned and out played in this game. It really puts their playoff chances in doubt, when it’s shown they can be beat by countless deep ball chances.

49ers 48 Saints 46

Once in a few years, a game comes along that delivers a great NFL product. This was the game. An endless back & forth of scoring by two great offences and defenses. Brees & Jimmy G each punched each other with scores upon scores, until the 49ers rallied late to score. Both teams played like they are both destined to play again with greater stakes at risk.

Redskins 15 Packers 20

The Packers won. But did they really? They put up some quick points, only to just sit on their lead. The Redskins made this a contest, and you wonder what the Packers will do when they face a team that can score back. The Redskins made some great little plays, and their D was able to adjust to Rodgers in the second half. Closer than the 13 point line suggests.

Chiefs 23 Patriots 16

The Patriots lost..again. This was a tight match that saw Tom Brady’s throwing options as pretty much zero. Mahomes looked ok, but not daunting enough to win a big playoff game. The Patriots will need to rebound if they want to win it all, but if anyone can do it, it’s them. The Chiefs might find themselves in the same early exit fate as they did last year. A win, but was it enough?

Week 15-Sky Games

by

It’s Week 15 folks, so forget your families and holiday shopping to focus on the most important thing in your life right now…the NFL.

Sky Sports has released its Week 15 schedule so that you can watch the big games. and there are some great ones on tap this weekend.

The 6pm (UK time) game features a divisional match-up between the Texans and the Titans.
The Titans have been rolling under Tannehill lately, and their punishing running game has really made it difficult for several teams around the league.

The Texans are still smarting from that Week 14 beat down by the Broncos, and will be looking to grab some kind of momentum against this staunch Titans team. Will they be able to continue their playoff hopes, or will the Titans grab the early lead in the march to 2020?

The 9pm game features the LA Rams vs Dallas Cowboys, not the greatest game in the world-but two teams in desperate need of a win. Can the Rams finally right their ship, or is it too little too late?

The late game will feature the Bills and Steelers in a must win situation for both, with Buffalo really hoping that they might be able to steal a lead from the Patriots.

Pop by the Princess Alex in Crouch End to watch all of the games.

See you Sunday!

 

Week 14 Results

by

Week 14 is almost done and dusted (does the Eagles vs Giants game really count?)
How many did you get correct?

Week 14 can always be a bit tricky to predict, with teams on the edge playing for their lives, which is what we saw this week.

Here are some of the interesting results from Week 14.

Redskins 15-Packers-20

Yes, the Packers did move forward in their playoff quest, but this was by no means a simple game for them. Despite being 13 point faves in this game, the Packers struggled to stave off the feisty Redskins. Haskins moved the ball around well, exposing problems in the Packers secondary.
Aaron Rodgers had some good passes, but it wasn’t a very convincing win for a team in a tough division. You barely beat the Redskins. How are you going to fare against some of the other top teams?

Dolphins-21 Jets-22

Poor Jets, they are fighting for wins, and when they get them-they are ugly. Fitz was anything but Magic, as the Fins relied not their kicker to get the job done-hitting 7 field goals to keep them in the game. This was an ugly 5.5 point spread for the Jets, so it was good to see that they weren’t able to cover this. Yeah, they won-but it was against the Dolphins and you barely won.

Broncos-39 Texans-24

Houston, we have a problem. The Texans aren’t playing very consistent football, and Drew Lock and co. really stunned the Texans in their pursuit of an AFC division. The Broncos struck quickly, moving the ball with ease, and gashing the Texans D with long balls and big runs. Where is JJ Watt when you need him? The scoreline isn’t as close as it could’ve been, as the Broncos could have whooped more points on them.

49ers-48 Saints-46

Holy macaroni what a game. This was as back and forth as a teeter-totter, as both teams were firing on each others D’s. It doesn’t bode well for having a tight D, when both your teams combine for a total of 94 points in offence. Jimmy G looked good, and Kittle is a beats when his big legs get moving. The Saints fall a little further back, making it a tough contest for anyone who faces them going forward.

Chiefs-23 Patriots-16

The Patriots lose? What is happening? Did they not pay off the refs? Well…about that. The refs actually had some blown calls on the Patriots that went through. What? They got screwed too? TB12 was in angry mode, as his team struggled against a Chiefs team that was all over him. 40 total points is surprising, but not as surprising as the Pats losing at home in December. They are now out of first place, and will have to fight for a wildcard spot if they continue this record. Could the Bills beat them in a few weeks?

Chargers-45 Jaguars-10

Where has this Phillip Rivers been? How can they finally start chucking up this amount of points this late in the season? The Jags played like garbage, and Minshew is going to need some moustache oil if he wants to get his team lubed up again. Too little too late for the Chargers, as they limp out of this season into a dark future of a team without a fanbase. The Jags have watched their vaunted D disappear, just as their offence has done. They need a lot of work!

Heading into Week 15 and things are starting to get desperate.
Who actually has a good shot at winning it all?

Week 13 Picks

by

Wade-W13-picks

It’s Week 13, and things are heating up post Thanksgiving turkey games!
Who do have in this week’s games?
There are a lot of crapola games, and some key matches that have Super Bowl implications.
Obviously the 49ers vs Ravens will be the big game of the week, and the Patriots vs Texans is the key AFC game.
But how can you make money this week off the NFL?
By taking my picks, that’s how silly!

Weather. One of the big things to watch this week are any games that are played on the East coast that are outside. There is a nasty ThanksG storm rolling across the shoreline, and with flights being cancelled-expect that this also applies to footballs that are thrown. Expect snow, heavy winds, and frigid turf. Running will be the way to go, but ball control will be even more important.
On Sunday’s like this, GO FOR THE UNDER!
Choose the Under on any games on the east coast this week with these ket home teams: NY Giants; Ravens; Steelers. The Bengals, Panthers & Dolphins could also see some gusts and cold conditions.

Here are some of the key games I think are good for parlays to punch your ticket to some NFL wins. I’m still hitting a wicked 66% of picks correct against the spread heading into these games, putting me ahead of most Vegas sports book makers and pundits. You can check all my scores each week with our picks and by listening to our podcasts.

Take these bets to BetRegal, and also look at our DraftKings League.

-2.5 Bucs (4-7) vs Jags (4-7)

The line on this game has changed a few times. I snagged it on a early ticket at -1 Jags, which was a steal. The Bucs are now 2.5 pt faves and rightly so. So long as Jameis can shuttle the ball without dropping it, TB should be able to bust the ball deep into the cats end. The Jags have seen their D drop in talent dramatically, and are a shell of their former selves. Nick Foles better do something at home, or he will soon be looking for another job. Bucs should easily be able to handle their Florida brother cousin lovers.
Bucs WIN

Titans (6-5) vs -1 Colts (6-5)

The line on this one was originally 2.5 for the Colts, but has changed due to injuries and the heat of the Titans. Yes, they have won a few straight and Tannehill is pumping it like a champ, but this is a divisional bugaboo. The Colts have owned the Titans at home, and this should continue Sunday. Brissett and the boyz need to get that ball moving fast and deep into the Titans secondary. The have the defense to limit Henry, & if they put the pressure on Tannehill the Titans will make mistakes.
Colts WIN

-2 Browns(5-6)  vs Steelers (6-5)

The helmet game is back again! Tensions will be simmering after massive mantras for calm in this divisional slugfest. The Browns are beaming after the win a few weeks ago, while Mason Rudolph will be a mere witness in this contest. It’s the Steelers at home, so they should be more focused and driven to deliver with Duck at the helm. The Steelers are gutted by injuries so they will have to see what they can bandage in this one. I like them to chase Baker and for them to make mistakes. The weather is going to be horrible, so home field is a good bet.
Steelers WIN

The weather is going to make betting tough this week, so it’s a good week for home teams and favourites.

Good luck this week!

 

 

Week 13 Preview

by

It’s Week 13 ya turkeys!
Are you ready for some NFL picks?

Wade and Ryan are ready to hand down some great picks for you to use to make some NFL money before the holiday season. Are you ready for their expert picks?

They first look at what happened in the Thanksgiving games, and all the football action that went down.
Including:

  • Trubisky looks okay-ish, but Bears fans still want more.
  • The Lions playing ‘nothing to lose’ football.
  • Was this the biggest weekend ever in the NFL for onside kicks?
  • Dallas might be America’s team, but everyone likes the Bills.
  • Will the Bills get the props they deserve, or is there a reason the pundits fade them?
  • Taysom Hill looked great in his utility role for the Saints
  • The Falcons are sucky sucky all over-except their special teams kicker who is great.

Some of the other games they have an eye on this weekend.

-6.5 Packers vs Giants

Aaron Rodgers will be playing angry this week after getting humiliated by the 49ers last week. The Giants are a team of broken toys, so how will they be able to do anything to muster a fight? Look for a beatdown. A big one.

49ers vs -6 Ravens

This is the SuperBowl of Week 13, with two teams destined for the playoffs facing off each other in a great game. The 49ers have beaten everyone (not Seahawks) in their path, yet find themselves 6 point underdogs in this contest. Wade and Ryan both like the Ravens in this one, although Wade doesn’t think that they will cover that spread.

Bucs vs -1 Jaguars

Jameis has been getting loads of points, but also chucking tonnes of INT’s. Will he be able to turn it around for this one? The Jags however are on another path. An ugly, stinky , path. Nick Foles has been a busted nut, and Minshew-Mania is all but forgotten. Look for Tampa to easily cover this one.

Make sure you join our DraftKings contests, as well as some of the enhanced odds we can put together with BetRegal.

Join us this Sunday at the Princess Alex in Crouch End, where we watch all of the games until 1am. See ya Sunday.
