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.

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 Tips

by

Week 10 is here in the NFL, and what the heck do we know?
Really?

The Chiefs were supposed to be a dynamic team for 2021, and they have only gone off like a wet firework.
Mahomes and company make every Sunday look like their performing dentistry through the rectum, unpleasant and awkward.

The AFC in general is a bit of a wet fart, as it covers everything, and no one really knows who dealt it.
Are the Titans the real contenders, or is the Bills?
Will the real AFC contender please stand up?

Despite the wild week of games, Wade was able to correctly predict some of the turd outcomes including a Denver upset of America’s team.
How will he do this week?

The boys sort of proudly present their Week 10 tips, who knows really.

Ryan had said a few weeks ago that he would never bet on the Atlanta Falcons again, but guess who’s back in an abusive relationship?
Ryan looks to heal old wounds in week 10, as he revisits picks of the past, and see if he can find an understanding.

Ryans Picks

Shuffling off to Buffalo (-13), Ryan is hot on his team to lay a beating on the Mike White led New York Jets.
While he loves his Bills, he doesn’t love their stagnant starts, and while he thinks Buffalo will win, he has the Jets (+13) to cover.

Falcons (+9.5)  fans rejoice, Ryan is back into the fold, and he has a wild prediction in week 10…a Falcons win!
That’s right Atlanta, Ryan has predicted a Falcons upset on Sunday, as he thinks that they will beat the Dallas Cowboys at home.

Tennessee (-3) might have lost King Henry for a few weeks, but that doesn’t stop Ryan from believing in them to do the dirty on the Saints on Sunday.
He likes the other Ryan (Tannehill) to lead the south to victory over…the south in a bit of a blowout.

Denver (-3) laid a mile high concussion on the Cowboys on Sunday, and Ryan likes them to win another game against the struggling Eagles. He likes Teddy and the boyz to make the day tough for Jalen Hurts.

A £10 bet using Ryan’s picks of Jets, Falcons, Titans and Broncos would win you £160.00

Wade’s Picks

Wade has gone the upset route for Week 10, given how many wild upsets happened during week 9.

Cleveland (+3) has had a heck of a week with all the OBJ’ing to and fro, all while Baker tries to get better. The Patriots might be on a tear, but slow and steady doesn’t win every race. He likes the Browns to win.

Big Ben is out, which brings in the unsteady Mason Rudolph to lead the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Jared Goff and the Lions (+7) are 0-8, which means he needs something to happen to save his job. Will this be the week they win? Maybe, but they should keep it closer than 9.

The Vikings (+2.5) are a steaming pile of hot mess this season, and every one of their games except for one has been decided in the final 60 seconds of the game.
Facing the Chargers this week, the same thing might just happen.
Wade thinks that Minnesota will keep this game close (& high scoring).

The Raiders (+2.5) have had a gut punch of a month, losing pretty much all of their draft picks for 2020 in the process.
Derek Carr is angry, and ready to rally against a depleted Chiefs squad.
This one could be big and angry, but the Raiders should prevail.

If you want to use Wade’s picks of Browns, Lions, Vikings and Raiders, a £10 bet will yield you a whopping payout of £159.70.

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!

News of Nov

by

Week 9 in the NFL felt like a year, with all of the news, injuries and bat crap craziness.

Let’s take a look at some of the storylines swirling around the league as we head into week 10, with our News of Nov.

Make sure you join us every Sunday at either the Sports Bar & Grill Old Street or Clapham, where we will be showing all of the games plus Redzone.

Josh Allen

Josh Allen was the star of Week 9, after not only sacking Bills QB Josh Allen, but also intercepting him and scooping up an Allen fumble.

The Bills too a major beatdown from Urban Meyer and the Jags on Sunday, in what seemed to be an equal shock to both teams.

The normally pedestrian Jacksonville defence looked to be the top of their game, as they held Buffalo to a frustrating Sunday of football.

Urban Meyer keeps his job safe for another week, despite a potential injury to Trevor Lawrence, while the Buffalo Bills need to have a talk amongst themselves to figure out what went wrong.

It was a good day for Josh Allen regardless.

Raided

What a bad week for the Las Vegas Raiders.
Not only did Henry Ruggs III make a truly boneheaded move that resulted in death, but rookie Damon Arnette was also cut from the team for bad behaviour.

Arnette reportedly threatened to kill numerous people, as well as harm.

Whatever is going on in Las Vegas, it needs to change as the bad boy reputation of the team continues to drag them down.

Baker BJ

OBJ and his dad got their way, as Odell rode off to free agency after a disintegration of their relationship.

Baker Mayfield and the Browns responded in week 9 by absolutely trashing the Bengals in an ugly affair.

Cleveland has a great O line and a solid D, it’s the uo and down play of Baker Mayfield that makes this team hard to trust in the long run, especially the way that the Titans are playing.

Bear Mauled

In a true game travesty on MNF, the Chicago Bears were royally screwed by bad, bad refs.

In fact the refs were so bad, many Bears fans are tossing out claims of corruption and fix, after some truly biased calls by the refs.

A taunting call that had no taunting, and a ref leaning in to make contact with a Bears player, only so that he could throw a flag on the player for running into him.

Bears fans are livid, and the refs better watch their backs.

Rodger Me

Aaron Rodgers continues to have the spotlight shine on him, after it was revealed that he is not vaxxed and thinks he is smarter than everyone else.

Rodgers recent antics in the past few weeks must be a relief to the Packers, who will be losing the all star QB next season.  Why court that kind of drama when it’s going to overshadow the team every week?

Packers fans were hopeful that the new heir apparent Jordan Love would step up last week to offer some sort of heroics, only to look like a giant turd against a very weak Chiefs squad.

Green Bay fans can look to Boston to see what their future holds.

Just another average team, with an average QB.

Dem Boyz

Michael Irvin has been choking on his own spittle for the past few days, as his Dallas Cowboys laid a giant turd against a mediocre Denver Broncos on Sunday.

Teddy looked far superior to Dak, and the running game of the Broncos could not be stopped as they stole a W from the Cowboys.

Fans in Texas will wonder if this was just a blip, or if the Cowboys just aren’t that good.

Immunised-Week 9

by

What a topsy turvy week it’s been in the NFL.

Week 8 brought us some major upsets, as well as injuries.
The week that followed brought us big news that the bug is still in the league, and some folks have their own stance on it.

Wade and Ryan lock and load it all down for you in this episode of the podcast we call Immunised- Week 9.

Week 8

Oh what a headache week was, as the injure bug picked off a few more victims.

Derek Henry went down for a large chunk of the season after suffering a massive win over the Colts. Fantasy fans will be livid that King Henry is absent from their lineups after infecting heavy losses on weekly opponents.

The New York Jets came alive by skinning the Bengals thanks to the heroics of Mike White.
Mike who?
Yep, Mike White stepped up to toss for over 400 yards and making a rich bettor even richer after taking such a leap of faith on the rookie.

Squeaky Kermit and the Chiefs were able to tomahawk a victory over the sad as fluck Giants.
Kansas City keeps itself alive for another week, but the shine is off the trolley as opponents are keenly aware of how easy it is to rattle Mahomes.

Miller Time

Von Miller is off to the Rams, making and Los Angeles squad even deeper and darker.

Having to face Aaron Donald every snap is scary enough, but adding the blistering energy of Von Miller is sure to take this top D to new heights.

Best of all, these guy’s will not only come to his Halloween party, they’ll probably even pay.

Oh BJ

Odell Beckham Jr. once again was under the shadow of his father, after the latter went on a tear about how his son was left open too often by Bunker Mayfield.

The Browns responded by not allowing Beckham to practice, which is a quick sign that OBJ will be hitting the Ohio highways in search of catching pastures.

Many teams would love to snag the services of this unappreciated receiver, not the least of whom would be his old buddy Sean Payton in New Orleans, who could use some speed after the loss of often injured Michael Thomas this week.

Rodgered

Aaron Rodgers made the news this week when it came out that he had failed a COVID test. The oopsie daisy got even smellier when it emerged that Rodgers wasn’t even vaccinated, and opted for a homeopathic treatment instead.

Pots called kettles black, kettles called their lawyers as the media scrambles to figure out what the league will actually do here.

Rodgers blatantly misled reporters and fans by claiming he was ‘immunised’, a tacit dodge of whether or not he had been jabbed.

Aaron will miss Week 9 versus the Chiefs, but it remains to be seen if the NFL or indeed the media might demand answers and justice for having deceived his health status to those who might have trusted his jabs.

Ryan’s Picks

Ryan has  a few choice picks for week 9, but you should listen to the whole podcast to get the full flavour.

He likes the Chargers (-3) to rebound in true electric fashion, zapping the poor Eagles in a solid win to get back they season.

Get out the sourdough, Ryan likes the 49ers (+1) to strike gold against the weekend Cardinals. Hopkins and Green will be out, leaving poor Kyler to face that pass rush. Upset win here.

Raider (-3) nation will be happy that Ryan is big on the pirates to steal a victory for the sad sack Giants.
Ruggs might be facing life, but what happens in Vegas…doesn’t work anymore.

Wade’s Picks

Tyrods’s Texans (+6.5) could keep it honest with the Dolphins, in what could be the worst game of week 9.
Gaskin will probably gash the Texans for maximum yards, but Tyrod will be able to hit Cooks to keep this close.

Bill Belichick might be a master as of late, but his castaway Gilmore might have something to say about his trip to the south.
The Panthers (+4) have found some mojo in the form of Christan McCaffery, who should be able to stay healthy for a play or two.
Carolina will pop out an upset here to make old Bill sad faced.

As Bears fan, Wade is obliged to hate the Packers (+7.5), but can’t see why they are underdogs by more than a touchdown. Green Bay’s D is a force to be fumbled with, and Jordan Love has been slowly cooking for his chance to shine.
Packers win.

Sports Bar and Grill

Both locations of Clapham and Old Street will be rocking all weekend long with NCAA football and NFL action.

Old Street stays open until 12:30am and Clapham until 11pm.
