It's come time to embarrass myself once again in pursuit of a winning record by picking the entire 2024 NFL slate using the odds found on Scores and Odds at the moment of this post. Smart gamblers never pick every game, I know. That's why this is so challenging. I haven't had a winning season YET, but fools like me never give up. As always, failure to make the pick before kickoff is an automatic loss. I'll add a line for each game explaining the simplest reason why I'm making this pick. I've always felt that the more you research the game, the more you skew your gut instinct. once it's posted, the pick is final. And away we go.......

Week One
Thursday Night Kickoff
Ravens +3 over the Chiefs
Andy Reid teams are traditionally slow starters. And Derrick Henry gives the Ravens a different look this year. I expect them to control the clock and grind out a win here.
Friday Night Bullcrap
Eagles -2.5 over the Packers
Brazil? Really? The NFL has lost it's damn mind. The Eagles have a chip on their shoulder following last years' end of season collapse. I expect the Vic Fangio defense to be way more physical and make a big play or two.
Dolphins -3.5 over the Jags
Boom or bust year for Trevor Lawrence. Starting in Miami is a tough way to start. Phins by 7.
Falcons -3 over the Steelers
I'm sure the Steelers aren't as bad as their preseason but expectations are high for these Falcons. I expect them to open it up Game 1.
Giants +1.5 over the Vikings
Giants are not as bad as people think and I love a home dog! G-men by 3.
Saints -4 over the Panthers
Carolina is not as bad as people think either. But opening on the road against that defense is a tough assignment. Saints by a touchdown.
Bengals -8 over the Patriots
I would usually love the dog here, especially since Chase may sit this game out but I have zero faith in Jacoby Brissett.
Titans +4 over the Bears
Caleb Williams has the hype but that 4 points makes me lean to the Titans.
Cardinals +6.5 over the Bills
I expect a big year from Kyler Murray. They might not win this one but 6.5 points is a lot here.
Colts +3 over the Texans
Another home dog! I think this Colts team is better than most people think. Sophmore slump for C. J. Stroud. He ain't surprising the league this year.
Raiders +3 over the Chargers
I like Minshew leading this Raiders team. He's sneaky good and I think he'll be ready for that pass rush. Outright upset here. Welcome back to the NFL Harbaugh!
Seahawks -6 over the Broncos
Bo Nix gives Denver life but everyone forgets how good this Seattle offense can be. Blowout here.
Bucs -3 over the Commanders
Washington will be way better this year but starting on the road against that defense is a tough way to start for Jayden Daniels.
Cowboys +2.5 against the Browns
Dak has a chip on his shoulder this year. Even without Cee Dee, the Boys take this one.
Rams +3.5 over the Lions
Tough pick but I think Detroit is a bit overconfident coming into the season. Rams can still light up the scoreboard.
Jets +4 over the 49ers
Does Rodgers have any gas left in the tank? Will he play more than a quater this year? Jets defense keeps this close.
Good luck everyone! Fade at your own risk!
WE GOT GAMES!Comment -
You can see why I say FADE AT YOUR OWN RISK! A dismal 6-9-1 start to the season. No matter, onto Week 2. WE GOT GAMES!
Week 2 NFL
Bills +2.5 at the Dolphins
You never know what to expect in division games. Especially on Thursday night. But the Bills are 9-1 in moneyline bets in their last 10 games with Miami. I'll take the Bills +2.5
Raiders +9.5 at the Ravens
Baltimore in a home opener against a sub par Raiders squad? 9.5 points is a lot for any team but the Ravens have to be the pick here after losing a tight season opener in KC. Ravens in a blowout.
Chargers -6.5 at the Panthers
Chargers are a surprising 1-6 in their last 7 moneyline bets against Carolina. I'm bucking this trend on this one. Cargers by 7.
Saints +6.5 at the Cowboys
Hone opener for the Boys but I think the Saints are going to give then a run for their money. New Orleans covers in this one. +6.5 is too much.
Bucs +7 at the Lions
Another game where I feel the spread is too high. Detroit can be explosive but I feel that TB defense keeps it close. I'll take the 7 points with the Bucs.
Colts -3.5 at the Packers
Tough one here because no one knows what to expect with Willis at the helm. I'll have to go with Indy who gave Houston a game last week. Tough road win for the Colts here.
Browns +3 at the Jags
I'm not sure what to think here. Jags gave the Phins a tough game last week while the Browns looked out of place agaist the cowboys. I'm going with the Browns defense here because I have little faith in Trevor Lawrence to beat THAT defense. I'll take the 3 with the Browns.
Niners -6 at the Vikings
I don't think the Vikes are ready for what San Fran defense is going to throw at them. I'm confident the Niners roll here.
Seahawks -3.5 at the Patriots
NE looked good against a disinterested Bengals squad. Even though this is the home opener for the Pats, I like Seattle to keep it together to win here. Jacoby Brissett is still the QB so go figure.
Jets -3.5 at the Titans
NY with the better defense here that I expect to shut Tennessee down. Thw question is wether Aaron Rodgers plays a good game. I think he gets the ball rolling here for a standout win. I'm going with NY.
Giants +1.5 at the Commanders
After a dismal start against the Vikings the Giants are only 1.5 dogs ON THE ROAD? Something stinks here. Maybe because the Commanders are 2-7 moneyline against the Giants in their last 9? I still can't bring myself to pick Daniel Jones after the way they looked last week. Commanders -1.5 is the pick.
Rams +1.5 at the Cardinals
Cards are 2-8 moneyline in the last 10 against the Rams. Even the home cooking isn't enough to overcome that offense . Rams in a close one.
Bengals +6 at the Chiefs
That's a lot of points to give Cincy, especially when they're 7-3 moneyline in their last 10. Personally I think Burrows is having trouble with that hand which makes me wonder if he's not at 100%. I'm leaning with the Chiefs here, give up the 6 points.
Steelers -3 at the Broncos
Can Bo Nix handle that Steeler defense? I think Pittsburgh grinds out another road win. Steelers -3 is the bet.
Bears +7 at the Texans
It's Stroud vs that Bears defense, I don't think Caleb is ready for prime time yet. Texans by 10 in the home opener.
Falcons +6.5 at the Eagles
Falcons offense struggled against that Pittsburgh defense but the Philly D is still pulling the pieces together. Eagles should grind out a win but I'm not sure about the 6.5 points. Eagles by 7 in a tight contest.
Good luck everyone!

Good start to the week!

8-8 last week in probably the wackiest week of betting in a long time. Lots of favs took the week off. YTD is 14-17-1 Looking to get to .500 this week. AND AWAY WE GO!
Thursday Night game you can't watch unless you have Prime.
Patriota +6 at the Jets
The Jets are 1-9 in moneyline bets against the Pats in their last 10. Taking that into consideration I'm going with New England here with the Pats playing consistent ball early in the season. Pats +6 is the bet.
Chargers +1.5 at the Steelers
Two clubs starting the season well but this is Pittsburgh's home opener and the crowd should be rocking! I expect a defensive battle with the Steelers winning on a late FG.
Bears +1.5 at the Colts
Bears have a good defense but Caleb Williams has struggled. Anthony Richardson hasn't been much better. I like the home cooking here for the Colts. Indy by 3 in a close one.
Texans -2 at the Vikings
Another match of unbeatens here with the surprising Vikings as the home dog. Texans are 2-7 in the last 9 moneyline bets against Minny so I'm going with the home dog here. Vikings by 3.
Giants +6.5 at the Browns
That's a lot of points to give up, especially with an uninspiring Browns offense but we're talking Daniel Jones against THAT defense. Browns better take this one easily. Browns by 7
Eagles +3 at the Saints
Jalen Hurts will have to have the game of his life for this to be close because that Eagles defense needs work. Derek Carr will go wild with no pass rush and considering they haven't punted yet THIS YEAR? This might get ugly. Saints by a touchdown. At least.
Broncos +6.5 at the Bucs
This seems like a LOT to give up but that Tampa Bay defense might make it a long day for Bo Nix. I think the Buccaneers should cover. Bucs by a TD.
Packers +2.5 at the Titans
Green Bay grinded out a win against Indy last week. This should be another close one. Tennessee should grind out a home win here. Titans by 3.
Panthers +5 at the Raiders
Andy Dalton gets the start and I'm not sure if it makes a difference here. It would be so Raider-like to win at Baltimore and then lose at home to Carolina. BUT ... I think the Raiders have enough juice to win it by a touchdown.
Dolphins +4.5 at the Seahawks
I just can't see how the dolphins compete IN SEATTLE with Skylar Thompson at QB. Seattle by a TD.
Lions -3.5 at the Cardinals
Lions are a really good team but something seems missing here. Cardinals caught fire last week and getting 3.5 at home seems a bit much. I like the home dog to keep this close. Take the Cards.
Ravens -1 at the Cowboys
Everyone thought Baltimore would be better but that home loss to the Raiders stung. Cowboys ran into a buzzsaw against the Saints so both teams need to rebound. I like the Cowboys at home to open it up. Cowboys by 7.
Niners -7 at the Rams
Niners are 8-2 in moneyline bets in the last 10 against the Rams. No Nacua or Kupp for LA? I don't like the 7 points but San Fran should roll here. Niners by 10.
Chiefs -3.5 at the Falcons
Eagles flat out choked on Monday Night with little to no pass rush on Kirk Cousins. Chiefs will be flying around and making sure he gets some pressure. Chiefs by 7.
TWO MONDAY NIGHT GAMES! But they start an hour apart?????
Jags +5.5 at the Bills
I have no faith in Trevor Lawrence but the Jags have their backs to the wall here. Tough call with the 5.5, I'll stick with my gut feeling and go with the Bills. Doug Pederson will be on the hot seat soon. Bills by a TD.
Commanders +7.5 at the Bengals
Cincy showed some life in the Chiefs loss. Commanders beat the Giants but that Bengals defense is a bit tougher. Bengals by 10.
As always follow or fade at your own risk. WE GOT GAMES!!!!
Good luck!Comment -
A dismal 6-10 this week, putting the season totals at 20-27-1
Pathetic.
The ebb and flow of the league is insane right now. Only a handful of teams are playing solid football right now.Comment -
Week 4
YTD 20-27-1
Time to get creative.
Thursday Night Prime
Cowboys -6 at the NY Giants
Can Dallas be as bad as they looked last week? Can the Giants finally beat Dallas?
No and No. Giants are not deadbeats but a loss for Dallas puts them at 1-3 and at the bottom of the division. They can't afford to lose this division game. Cowboys by 7.
Saints +2.5 at the Falcons
Saints were on a roll until the Philly D shut them down. Falcons need this game but I'm not sure they have the defense to shut Carr down. Division rivalry that figure to go down to the wire. I'll take the points. Saints by 3.
Steelers -1.5 at the Colts
Not sure if Anthony Richardson can beat that Steeler defense. Meanwhile Justin Fields is starting to look comfortable. Steelers by 4.
Jags +6.5 at the Texans
I don't have any confidence in Trevor Lawrence anymore. Especially on the road. Texans by a TD.
Vikings +2.5 at the Packers
Sam Darnold is looking comfy in that Viking offense. Malik Willis looks better than expected. Packers have the better defense and I like them to cool Sam down enough to win this one by a FG.
Bengals -4 at the Panthers
Cincy just can't get a W but I expect them to throttle Andy Daulton. At least they better. It comes down to who wants this more. I say Bengals by 7
Rams +2.5 at the Bears
No Kupp or Nacua for the Rams make me lean towards the Bears, especially after that emotional win over the Niners last week. I think LA will be on a down swing against a pretty good defense. Caleb Williams might be waking up. Bears by 4
Broncos +7.5 at the Jets
That's a nasty defense on the NY side and Rodgers is looking better every game. I don't think Bo Nix is ready for this yet. Jets by 10.
Eagles -2 at the Buccaneers
With BOTH Philly WR's most likely out, I'm going with the Bucs here. Bucs defense will clog the running lanes for Saquon. I'll take the home dog by3.
Commanders +3.5 at the Cardinals
I look for Kyler Murray to have a field day against an average Commander defense. Cardinals by a TD.
Patriots +10 at the Niners
Brock Purdy should be able to handle the Patriot defense even if Deebo and Kittle are out. Niners should roll but that might change if Drake Maye gets the start. Or it might not matter at all. Niners by 2 TD's.
Browns +2 at the Raiders
Browns have the defense but I can't count on either of these QB's. I'll take the 2 points. Browns by a FG.
Chiefs -7.5 at the Chargers
I get this feeling that the Chiefs have been playing down to their opponent. Yes they're undefeated but the run game is now a work in progress and this might be a tough game on the road. Chiefs probably win but I like the 7.5 points. I'll take the home dog.
Bills +2.5 at the Ravens
This is a tough game because although the Bills are rolling, I'm not sure they can stop Derrick Henry. It'll come down to Josh Allen to play a clean game and stay ahead of the Ravens. I'll take the 2.5 with the Bills.
Monday Night! Why do we need TWO games?
Titans +1 at Miami
Can Miami actually win with Skylar Thompson behind the center? I think they'll come through at home against a so-so Titans team. Dolphins by a TD.
Seahawks +3.5 at the Lions
Don't underestimate this Seahawks team. Lions are good and played better last week but I feel 3.5 is too much for Seattle. I'll take the Seahawks with the 3.5
As usual, follow or fade, pick your own poison.
Good luck in this crazy NFL season!Comment -
5-9 going into Monday Night's doubleheader.
Five and friggin' nine!
Embarrassing.

A dismal 5-11 in Week 4.
YTD 25-38-1
We trudge on to Week 5
I swear I'm trying to pick winners here. I really am.
Thursday Night Football
Buccaneers +1.5 at the Falcons
I can't see the Bucs falling to the Falcons, even if the game is in ATL. Will Kyle Pitts run any other route except a shallow crossing pattern? Which Baker Mayfield shows up tonight? I have to take Tampa here with the 1.5 even though these are two teams that can be wildly inconsistent.
The rest of Week 5 picks coming sonn!Comment -
Another great start!
Here's the rest of Week 5's picks,
Sunday Morning London Bullcrap
Jets +2.5 at the Vikings
I never know what to expect in these overseas battles. The Vikings are red hot while the Jets wildly inconsistent like the rest of the league. I have to roll with the hot hand. Vikings by a TD.
Panthers +4 at the Bears
Chicago starting to show some life pn offense and that defense is still good enough to make a difference. Bears by a TD.
Ravens -2.5 at the Bengals
Both teams really need this game but that Ravens offense should roll against a suspect Cincy D. Ravens by 3.
Bills +1 at the Texans
Gotta go with Buffalo here in what appears to be a shootout. Bills by 3
Colts +3 at Jacksonville
Colts haven't won in Jacksonville since 2014 and they're banged up. Jags finally get their first win.
Dolphins -1 at the Patriots
Miami has thrown in the towel with no QB to speak of. Pats are terrible but should gut out a win in this low scoring affair. Pats by 3.
Browns +3.5 at Washington
Commanders are hitting stride but they haven't gone against a defense like this yet. I'll take the points here in what looks to be a close game. Browns by a FG.
Raiders +3 at Denver
Vegas is in shambles with Adams looking to go elsewhere. Broncos have the lowest scoring offense in the league but that D is pretty good. I'll go against history here and take the Broncos by a TD at home.
Cardinals +7.5 at the Niners
Niners have been rolling on offense and should continue that trend. Cards can't keep up against that defense. Niners by 10.
Packers -3 at the Rams
With Love back at the helm this Packer offense should blow through that weak Ram defense. Packers by 10
Giants +7 at the Seahawks
Daniel Jones takes a seat on the bench so who knows what to expect here. Nabers is out so I don't think the G-men have enough to take advantage of a banged up Seattle team. Seahawks by 10.
Cowboys +3 at the Steelers
I can't go against the steelers at home. That defense should rise to the task. Steelers by a TD.
Saints +5.5 at the Chiefs
Again, can't go against Andy Reid at home. Even if they're heavily banged up
Chiefs by a TD
Good luck everyone! Fade at your own risk!

Week 6
Thursday Night
49ers -3.5 at the Seahawks
Go against Seattle at home WITH points? I know the Niners need this game more but I can't turn down the points. They might win the game but I can't turn down 3.5 at home. I'm taking Seattle.
The rest of Week 6 coming soon!Comment -
Gl I actually kinda like itComment -
Of course Seattle implodes on TNF!
It's been that kind of a year. Onto the rest of the weekend.
Jags -1 at the Bears
You never know what to expect in these overseas games. Jags go there every year and they need this game badly. I say Jacksonville by a FG.
Commanders +7 at the Ravens
Great matchup but I have to go with the points here. Ravens should win this at home but Daniels has been playing well. Big test for this Washington team. I'll take the points with the Commanders.
Cardinals +5.5 at the Packers
Another great matchup. I love the Packers at home but you never know when going up against Kyler Murray. Packers defense make the difference. Green Bay by 7
Texans -6.5 at the Patriots
Drake Maye gets welcomed to the league by the Texans pass rush. You never know with a first time starter but I'll take the Texans with a big road win. Texans by 10
Bucs -3.5 at the Saints
Bucs get 10 days rest to go against another rookie starter in Spencer Rattler. That Tampa D should have a big day. Bucs by 10.
Browns +8.5 at the Eagles
Browns are playing terrible and the Eagles are coming off the bye week healthy. All the experts say an Eagles blowout. I have to agree. Birds by 10.
Colts +3 at the Titans
Tennessee coming off a bye and the Colts get Anthony Richardson back. Lots of people side with the Titans here but I think Richardson comes back with a solid performance. Colts by a FG.
Chargers -3 at the Broncos
Chargers off a bye and Denver has been rolling defensively. A hot team that's a home dog? I'll take that all day. Broncos by three.
Steelers -3 at the Raiders
ANOTHER first time starter! this time for the Raiders, Aiden O'Connell. I'm sure that Pittsburgh defense will have a great day. Steelers bounce back after two losses. Pittsburgh by 9
Falcons -6 at the Panthers
Atlanta is definitely the hotter team and Cousins should light up the Panthers secondary. Falcons by 10.
Lions -3.5 at the Cowboys
Detroit off a bye against a banged up Dallas defense. It should be a shootout but I like the Lions here. Detroit by 7.
Bengals -3.5 at the Giants
Cincy needs this game badly but the Giants have been showing life. Tough call to give the home team points but I'll go with the Bengals by 7.
Bills -2 at the Jets
NY fires their coach and the QB had nothing to do with it? Yeah, right. Will it make a difference? The Bills are a better team IMHO but NY needs this game to save the season. Aaron Rodgers earns his money this Monday night. Jets by 4.
As usual, fade at your own risk! We got games!Comment -

Thursday Night Prime
Broncos -2.5 at the Saints
Saints are beat up although Spencer rattler didn't do bad last week. I have to go with Sean Payton sticking it to his old team. Broncos by 7.
I'll get the rest of the week up tomorrow.
Good luck everyone!Comment -
Week 7 started off with a bang as Denver trounced the Saints on Thursday. Let's see if I can get two positive weeks in a row.
London Calling!
Pats +6 at the Jaguars
Not sure if staying all week in London helps this Jacksonville team or not. So many dropped balls by Jags receivers last week. I'm not sure if they're that bad or if they hate their coach but it's a big problem. Jags win but don't cover. I'll take the Pats and the points.
Seahawks +3 at the Falcons
Excellent game here. ATL offense is firing on all cylinders while Seattle had 10 days to prepare for this one. I think Seattle pulls off the upset. I'll take the points with Seattle.
Titans +9.5 at the Bills
That's a LOT of points to give up here but Buffalo at home is always tough. I can't see Will Levis keeping up in this one. Bills by 14.
Bengals -5.5 at the Browns
Cleveland on the verge of a fire sale as that offense is just struggling. Cincy usually has problems playing in Cleveland and that defense is still damn good, but I think they've thrown in the towel already. Even the return of Nick Chubb doesn't help the Browns. Cincy by 7.
Texans +3 at the Packers
Another great matchup! Home field makes the difference here. Packers by 4.
Dolphins +3 at the Colts
Can Indy run the same offense with Anthony Rchardson at the helm? They better win here or we're headed for a QB controversy and can the Colts stop the Dolphins running game. I'm going with the upset here. Dolphins by 3.
Lions +1.5 at the Vikings
Third stellar matchup of the week! This is for control of the NFC North and maybe playoff implications for home field. I look for the Lions run game to control the clock and grind out a win because otherwise this will be a shoot out. Lions by 3.
Eagles -3.5 at the Giants
Toss a coin here. This should be a Philly win but until Hurts gets that offense scoring in the 1st qtr, this is a tossup. I'm taking the Eagles but that half point makes me cringe. Eagles by 7.
Raiders +7 at the Rams
This one comes down to Aidan O'Connell and if he can get going vs a weak Rams secondary. I can't go with the rookie on the road, Rams by 10.
Panthers +9.5 at the Commanders
Could be a letdown game for Washington as 9.5 points is a LOT! But maybe that loss to the Ravens gets them fired up to roll at home. I'll take Washington by 10.
Chiefs +2 at the Niners
the 4th out of 5 top notch games this week. San Fran looking to avenge the SB loss but Andy Reid is stellar coming off the bye week. I think that Niners D will be fired up and lock down Mahomes but you never can count them out. Niners by a FG.
Jets -1.5 at the Steelers
The addition of Davante Adams should be huge for this team because now Rodgers has the talent to spread that field more. The difference here will be if the pass rush gets to him before he picks them apart. Steelers are good at home but I think Rodgers gets the best of them here. Jets by 4.
Ravens -3.5 at the Bucs
Another doozy between two red hot teams. Bucs defense has what it takes to slow Henry down and Baker Mayfield has been solid. I'll take the home dog here. Bucs by 3.
Chargers -2 at the Cardinals
Tough call here because IMHO the Cards are better than their record and the Chargers aren't as good as people think. I have to take the home dog again. Cards by 3.
Good luck everyone! Fade at your own risk! We got games!Comment -
8-7 last week
YTD 47-56-3
Thursday night
Vikings -2.5 at the Rams
Minny rebounds after that close loss to the Lions last week. Rams defense will get lit up.
Vikes by 10.
Rest of the lineup later this week.Comment -
Of course a shit start to Week 8 as the Rams took it to Minny. Onto the rest of this nonsense!
Titans +11.5 at the Lions
That's a LOT of points to give up but Mason Rudolph gets the call for the Titans. Does it help? Probably not. I got the Lions by 2 TD's.
Ravens -8.5 at the Browns
Jameis Winston gets the call for Cleveland. Will it matter? It might. You never know with division games plus, Ravens on a short week, on the road against a division opponent. To me it adds up to the Browns making this closer than expected. Baltimore should win but I'm taking the points with Cleveland.
Packers -4 at the Jags
Jacksonville finally woke up last week but I'm not sure they're ready for this Packer defense. I got Green Bay by a TD.
Colts +5 at Houston
The big question here is if Anthony Richardson plays up to his potential. I'm going with Houston to bounce back after that loss in Green Bay. Texans by a TD.
Cardinals +4 at the Dolphins
Tua is back and I'm wondering if he'll be up to speed. Cards are playing better and can match them score for score. I like the 4 points and Arizona.
Falcons -2.5 at the Bucs
A short week and losing the top 2 WR's might be too much for Tampa Bay to overcome. Falcons by a FG.
Jets -7 at the Pats
Drake Maye has been good through 2 starts but I'm wondering if he's ready for this Jets defense. I think the Jets pull away late, win by 10.
Eagles +2.5 at the Bengals
Both teams rebounding after slow starts, the Eagles have the talent to take this but they need to score early and not give Cincy a quick lead. I'll take Philly and the points.
Bills -3 at the Seahawks
Great game here with the Bills heading to the West Coast. I have to take the home dog here as Seattle is always a tough place to win. Seahawks by 3.
Saints +7 at the Chargers
Chargers are good but I'm not sure they score enough to stay ahead of the spread. I'll take New Orleans with the points.
Bears -3 at the Commanders
Looks like Jayden Daniels will sit this one out so taking the Bears here seems to be the play. Bears by 7.
Chiefs -9.5 at the Raiders
KC keeps rolling in what should be no contest. Chiefs by 10.
Panthers +11 at the Broncos
Denver should never be favored by 11 to anyone! That said Carolina has no shot against this defense. I hate it but I'm taking Denver and giving up the big 11.
Cowboys +4.5 at the Niners
It just seems like too big a spread with Dallas having the bye week. against my better judgement I'm taking Dallas with the points.
Giants +6 at the Steelers
Defense takes over this game as Pittsburgh should roll the Giants.
Good luck everyone! Fade at your own risk, we got games!Comment -
6-9 so far this week with the Steelers -6 tonight.
53-65-3 YTDComment -
7-9 last week
54-65-3 YTD
Thursday Night
Texans +2 at the Jets
It's funny what losing your top 2 Wr's does to a line. How can the Jets be favored over the Texans? I'm not buying it. Texans win by a FG in a low scoring matchup.
I'll post the rest of this week's picks later. Good luck everyone!Comment -
As usual the Jets did the unexpected and won on Thursday. Here's my picks for the rest of the week.
Pats +3.5 at the Titans
Drake Maye is the better QB and both defenses can play. I'm going with the road dog. Pats by one!
Chargers -1.5 at the Browns
Jameis Winston has given the Browns some life. Chargers might have some problems against that defense which makes me lean towards the home dog. Browns by a late FG.
Saints -7.5 at the Panthers
Derek Carr returns and that's enough to take New Orleans. Panthers are just struggling. Saints by 10.
Dolphins +6 at the Bills
The return of Tua gives Miami some hope but this Buffalo team is pretty good. No upset at home. Bills by 10.
Cowboys +3.5 at the Falcons
I hate the Cowboys but this could be a letdown game for ATL after taking control of the division. Dallas might win this outright. I'll take the Boys and the points.
Broncos +9.5 at the Ravens
That's too many points against a defense that has the ability to shut down Henry. Ravens will win but I'll take the 9.5 and the Broncos.
Raiders +7 at the Bengals
This Vegas squad played well against the Chiefs, Begals finally get a home win but I don't think they beat that spread. Raiders and the points!
Commanders -4 at the Giants
You never kmow in a NFC East game but Washington is way too hot not to beat a 4 point spread. And Daniel Jones sucks. Commanders by 10.
Bears +1.5 at the Cardinals
This is a tough matchup. Bears defense is for real but Arizona will give them a tough test here. I can't go against the home team here. Cards by a FG.
Jags +7.5 at the Eagles
Philly is just hitting stride as they looked like a machine against the Bengals. Jacksonville doesn't have the D to keep them in this one. Eagles by 10.
Rams -1 at the Seahawks
Toss a coin in this division matchup. The return of Kupp and Nacua is the difference here. Rams by 7.
Lions -3 at the Packers
Packers have the defense to slow down the Lions but a nicked up Jordan Love is the question here. With that in mind, I'm sticking with the hot team. Lions by 6.
Colts +5 at the Vikings
Flacco to the rescue! Vikes win this at home but Indy gives then enough to make this fun. Colts +5 is the pick.
Bucs +9 at the Chiefs
Again! Way too many points to give up, even with the top 2 WR's gone for TB. Chiefs will win, Tampa covers.
Good luck everyone! Fade at your own risk. We got games!Comment -

Tough to go against Lamar in prime time.
Ravens by 10.Comment -
Another losing TNF pick. Maybe I should FADE my own picks.
Here's the rest of Week 10
Giants -6.5 at the Panthers
Is anyone else sick of these overseas game? I sure am. Anyway the Giants shouldn't be favored by 6.5 to anyone. Panthers with the spread.
Bills -4 at the Colts
Flacco got the starting nod last week and crapped the bed. The NFL is catching on. Bills by 7.
Vikings -7 at the Jags
We'll find out what this Jags team has with Lawrence out. I'm guessing it ain't much. Vikes by 10.
Steelers +2.5 at the Commanders
Great test for both of these teams. I'm liking that Steelers D to bring Jayden Danies a notch. Commanders get caught looking ahead to Thursday's big division matchup. Steelers win outright by 3.
Falcons -3.5 at the Saints
New coach for Nawlins isn't enough to slow down this Falcons team. ATL by a TD.
Broncos +7.5 at the Chiefs
Chiefs have a habit of playing down to the competition. Chiefs win but I'll take the +7.5 with Denver.
Niners -6.5 at the Bucs
SF gets McCaffrey back but I like TB to hang close. I'll take Tampa win the 6.5.
Pats +6 at the Bears
Two young QB's duel it out in Chicago. I'll take the home cooking with the Bears. Chi-town by a TD.
Eagles -7 at the Cowboys
Throw everything out in these NFC East games. Cooper Rush isn't a bad QB but the lack of run game hurts Dallas. Eagles by 10.
Jets -1.5 at the Cardinals
You never know what you're getting with Aaron Rodgers. AZ is a hot team right now so I'll take the home dog. AZ by a TD.
Lions -3.5 at the Texans
Detroit is probably the hottest team in the NFL right now but face a real test here. It's time for a bit of an upset here. I'll take the home dog, Houston by 1.
Dolphins +1.5 at the Rams
Tough call here as Tua has this team playing better. I'll take the Dolphins with a road win. Miami by 3.
As usual FADE AT YOUR OWN RISK, although it's been a good trend lately. WE GOT GAMES!Comment -
Almost forgot!
Titans +8 at the Chargers
Chargers are playing well and there's no reason to think that Tennessee is going to come to LA and slow them down. Chargers by 10.Comment -
A stellar 10-4 last week bringing the YTD total to 69-79-3.
Onto the BIG Thursday Night Game.
Commanders +3.5 at the Eagles
Winner takes control of the NFC East. Eagles pass defense has been stellar the last few weeks but now they get Jayden Daniels. Not sure if the Commanders can slow down Barkley. All together I figure a home win, I'll take the Eagles and give up the points.
The rest of Week 11 coming soon.Comment
