08-27-21 Steelers +4 v. Panthers Top 9-34 Loss -110 28 h 14 m Show

Pittsburgh Steelers.

FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS GOY.

Game 107.

4:30 pm pst.

9 Stars.

+4.

Pittsburgh is just a point away from going 3-0 ATS this preseason. The Steelers are steeped in tradition and have one of the most loyal fan bases in football. However, this upcoming season, they are forecasted to finish third in the AFC North. Another win here and they will have some momentum going in to the regular season while giving their fans something to be excited about. Head coach, Mike Tomlin is a boss that puts forth effort and tries to win in August, going 11-4 SU and 10-4-1 ATS their last 15 preseason contests. With a solid and experienced quarterback corps, look for Pittsburgh to put an aerial assault on a Carolina team that has been picked apart by the pass in both preseason games (497 yards passing allowed). Take the Steelers. Thank you.

08-21-21 Texans +4 v. Cowboys 20-14 Win 100 10 h 50 m Show

Houston Texans.

Las Vegas Strip Move play.

Game 419.

5:00 pm pst.

8 Stars.

+4.

Dak and Ezekiel are not expected to play here (check status). For a team and a head coach that isn’t known to put forth an effort in preseason play to be a favorite of this many points, is beyond me. Throw in the mix that the team is 0-2 SU and ATS thus far and has only mustered a total of 19 points, then I must side with the Houston squad looking to create some excitement for the team and their fans. As everyone knows they are touted to finish last in the AFC South so some buzz with another win in the preseason would certainly do just that. Take the points with the Texans. Thank you.  

08-20-21 Bengals +5.5 v. Washington Football Team 13-17 Win 100 10 h 1 m Show

Cincinnati Bengals.

Friday Night Lights Winner.

Game 405.

5:00 pm pst.

8 Stars.

+5.5.

The WFT can definitely surprise Dallas for the top spot in the NFC East. The Bengals, on the other hand, are forecasted to finish last in the AFC North and would love to give their fans something to be excited about. The Patriots ran through the WFT defense in last week’s 22-13 loss and no cover. The Bengals, which beat the Buccaneers, 19-14 for the outright win have a very impressive rushing corps. The WFT isn’t known to try too hard in August, riding a 2-7 mark both SU and ATS their last nine preseason games. And they certainly won’t jeopardize their playmakers too long in just Game 2 of the preseason. Too many pints to give here. Take the Bengals. Thank you.

08-19-21 Patriots -115 v. Eagles 35-0 Win 100 10 h 2 m Show

New England Patriots on the money line.

Thursday Night Winner.

Game 401.

4:30 pm pst.

8 Stars.

-115.

Well folks, both teams have solid quarterback corps as New England features Newton, Jones, and Hoyer. Philadelphia features Flacco, Hurts, and Mullens. Last week the Patriots got their rushing game going, plowing the WFT for 179 yards on the ground while the Eagles couldn’t establish a ground game (52 YR) against the Steelers. No one expects too much from Philly this season as the team is touted to finish last in the NFC East. However, New England is forecasted to be the AFC East’s second place team and is still a fan favorite at 10/1 to win the AFC. With some momentum going into the regular season, Bill Belichick knows his team has a shot at the AFC East title. Looking at preseason action, the Patriots are 7-2 both SU and ATS their last nine contest while the Eagles are just 2-7 both SU and ATS their last nine outings. Take New England. Thank you.

08-14-21 Seahawks v. Raiders -125 7-20 Win 100 98 h 42 m Show

Las Vegas Raiders.

LAS VEGAS STRIP MOVE.

Game 130.

6:00 pm pst.

Jon Gruden is a head coach that puts forth effort in the preseason as the Raiders are 6-2 SU and 7-1 ATS the last two preseasons. Las Vegas an enormous amount of pressure to win this season after failing to make the playoffs a season ago. Playing in a new stadium in front of fans, in Sin City, with a large payroll, is enough of a reason. But, word around town is that the team is looking to make a statement here and give the team some momentum and the fans and their season ticket holders something be excited about. Take the Raiders. Thank you.

08-14-21 Jets v. Giants +1.5 12-7 Loss -110 96 h 20 m Show

New York Giants.

Game 124.

4:30 pm pst.

The New York Giants are 6-2 SU and ATS the last two preseasons. This is a team with quality back-ups. Some names that you know form being solid college and pro players. Of these two New York football teams, the Giants have a punchers chance in their division this season while the Jets have absolutely no shot at the AFC East title. Take the Giants. Thank you.

08-13-21 Bills -130 v. Lions 16-15 Win 100 72 h 59 m Show

Buffalo Bills.

Friday Night Lights Winner.

Game 109.

4:00 pm pst.

Buffalo went both 4-0 SU and ATS their last preseason. Sports fans, I know football, and I hardly recognize any names on the Detroit roster. UGH, it’s going to be a very long season for the Lions. Normally, when a team is going to be a train wreck during the regular season, you look to pay them in the preseason. But Detroit is so bad, going against them in this matchup is a must. Buffalo is deeper for sure at all key positions. The Bills, without question, want to start the campaign off with a big win to let everyone know that they are an AFC elite team that will be in the League title game. Take Buffalo. Thank you.

08-12-21 Steelers +1 v. Eagles 24-16 Win 100 49 h 43 m Show

Pittsburgh Steelers.

Game 105.

4:30 pm pst.

Philadelphia isn’t known to try too hard in August and I don’t see them jeopardizing either their current starting quarterback or their future starting quarterback. Pittsburgh looked pretty good in their NFLX opening season win and cover over Dallas a week ago. The Steelers, which are forecasted to be a “mediocre” team this upcoming season, would love to give the team and their fans something to be excited about. Take Pittsburgh. Thank you.

08-05-21 Cowboys v. Steelers -130 3-16 Win 100 9 h 13 m Show

Pittsburgh Steelers.

Hall of Fame Game Winner.

Game 102.

5:00 pm pst.

Preseason football, especially the first few games, we must look at some different things. The Steelers, Mike Tomlin is one of the veteran head coaches that puts forth an effort during NFL preseason play. Over the last three preseason’s, his team is 9-3 SU and 8-3-1 ATS. He also, at key positions, has a lot more depth. There are some big names trying to earn some backup spots in major roles for Pittsburgh. In all sincerity, the Cowboys are picked to win the NFC East while the Steelers are forecasted to finish third in the AFC North. So, generating a little excitement for the fan base and giving the team some momentum is certainly a bit more urgent for Pittsburgh. Take the Steelers here. Thank you.

08-29-19 Dolphins +3.5 v. Saints 16-13 Win 100 8 h 4 m Show

Take Miami.

This is my NFLX GOM.

Game 125.

5:00 pm pst.  

Here we see just about the worst team in the NFL take on one of the best. The Dolphins have covered all 3 preseason outings, while the Saints are 1-1-1 ATS. The 3.5 here definitely prompts me to side with a Miami organization that needs to sell season tickets. TAKE 3.5 with the Fins. Thank you.

08-24-19 49ers +3.5 v. Chiefs 27-17 Win 100 10 h 47 m Show

Take San Francisco.

This is my TD play.

Game 275.

5:00 pm pst.

If this was the regular season, this game would have a very different line...even higher than 3.5 points. It's that extra .5 point that I really like here. San Francisco is 2-0, both SU and ATS this preseason while not touted to be any true threat in the NFC come the regular season. hey have good numbers coming from both their QB's and RB's. Kansas City, which is 1-1, both SU and ATS, but is expected to be a contender for the AFC title. They are not going to jeopardize any key players here more than they have to. take the 49ers plus the 3.5 points. Thank you.

08-23-19 Bills -2 v. Lions 24-20 Win 100 10 h 55 m Show

Take Buffalo.

This is my TD PLAY.

Game 265.

5:00 pm pst.

WOW, is Detroit just pathetic. The Lions are 0-2, both SU and ATS this preseason, while the Bills are 2-0, both SU and ATS. The Lions, guys, they do not possess a single able QB or RB. Even Detroit fans would have a difficult time naming the backfield starters. I know I didn't know them all. On the flip side, the Bills have three adequate QB's, and several solid RB's. Buffalo has a good front office and very loyal fans. They will come out here to impress both. TAKE THE BILLS -2.0. Thank you.

08-23-19 Browns -3 v. Bucs 12-13 Loss -100 10 h 31 m Show

Take Cleveland.

This is my TV GAME WINNER.

Game 263.

4:30 pm pst.

The hype surrounding Cleveland is for real. This is a team that went from a league doormat to a league contender in just a few seasons.  AND, they take preseason football very seriously, going 9-1, both SU and ATS the last 10 exhibition outings. Tampa Bay does possess several good QB's, but are without a true threat at RB. The Browns stay hot. LAY THE 3 WITH CLEVELAND here guys. Thank you.

08-22-19 Packers v. Raiders +3 21-22 Win 100 8 h 5 m Show

Take Oakland.

This is my TV GAME WINNER.

Game 260.

5:00 pm pst.

There's a lot of pressure on Jon Gruden's Raiders to win. They are 2-0, both SU and ATS in exhibition play as QB, Mike Glennon has tallied 375 YP on a 71.8% CR, with two TD's. Green Bay is touted to be a force in the NFC. But, Aaron Rodgers has yet to take a snap and once again the Packers have no ground game whatsoever. Oakland is 5-1, both SU and ATS the last six NFL preseason outings. TAKE THE POINTS WITH THE RAIDERS AT HOME. Thank you.

08-22-19 Giants +3 v. Bengals 25-23 Win 100 7 h 8 m Show

Take New York.

This is my TD play.

Game 251.

4:00 pm pst.

New York is 2-0, both SU and ATS this preseason. They are stacked at the QB position and have a lot of pressure coming from the front office to win. Getting three points here is a gift. TAKE THE GIANTS. Thank you.

08-17-19 Cowboys v. Rams UNDER 41 14-10 Win 100 79 h 51 m Show

Take UNDER in the COWBOYS/RAMS matchup.

This is my NFLX TOTALOF THE WEEK.

Games 421/422.

4:00 pm pst.

Neither squad showed too much offense as both lost in Week 1 action. There is no doubting that both teams are bound for the playoffs this upcoming season. But, please understand for teams like these two, the exhibition campaign is about not getting your biggest playmakers injured. I don't think you're going to see too much of either teams key players play more than a few series and offense will once again be lacking. TAKE UNDER. Thank you.

08-17-19 Browns +3 v. Colts 21-18 Win 105 73 h 57 m Show

Take Cleveland.

This is my BB play.

Game 417.

1:00 pm pst.

Andrew Luck is scheduled to see action here. The news has moved the line (as of print) from Cleveland -1 to Indy -3. Indianapolis fell short to Buffalo last week, 24-16, while Cleveland blasted Washington, 30-10. Both coaches and both teams like to play hard in the preseason. However, there is so much hype surrounding the Browns that I feel the organization, the team, and their fans don't just want, but need to win here. Take Cleveland. Thank you.

08-16-19 Bears +2.5 v. Giants 13-32 Loss -102 7 h 28 m Show

Take Chicago.

This is my TV GAME WINNER.

Game 413.

4:30 pm pst.

Chicago showed very little in a 23-13, Week 1 loss to Carolina. But no significant starters saw action. The Giants outlasted the Jets, 31-22 as the G-men did have some key players play. The Bears are a highly-touted team and do try in NFL exhibition games. A few more starters will see action here for Chicago. Giving the Bears points is a gift. I kinda' like them outright, but take the 2 with Chicago.

08-16-19 Dolphins +3 v. Bucs 14-16 Win 100 7 h 21 m Show

Take Miami.

This is my FNL winner.

Game 415.

4:30 pm pst.

Sports fans, what can you say about the Dolphins? They are touted to be the worst team in the NFL this season at 500-1 to win the Super Bowl, while forecasted to win a League-low, 4.5 games. Certainly, gone are the days of Larry Czonka led teams of the 70's and the Dan Marino led teams of the 80's and 90's. However, cross-state rivals, Tampa Bay AIN'T that much better. Miami bested Atlanta in Week 1, 34-27, and Tampa Bay gave Pittsburgh a tough game in a 2-point loss at Heinz Field. But, with a line of 3 here, be smart and take the points. Take the Dolphins. Thank you.

08-16-19 Bills v. Panthers -1 27-14 Loss -110 7 h 5 m Show

Take Carolina.

This is my LVSM.

Game 412.

4:00 pm pst.

Both squads looked good as both had wins in Week 1. There's a lot of pressure on Carolina to succeed, although both teams are slated to win just 7.5 games this upcoming season. However, looking at the last several exhibition campaigns, I must side with a Panthers team that is 6-3, both SU and ATS the L9 August contests. Lay under a FG here. Take Carolina. Thank you.

08-15-19 Raiders +3.5 v. Cardinals 33-26 Win 100 29 h 3 m Show

Take Oakland.

This is my TD play.

Game 409.

5:00 pm pst.

Both teams won in Week 1 against superior foes. Both also try in the preseason, as both went 3-1 SU and ATS a year ago. And, both are touted to finish last in their divisions. But, with a line (as or print) of 3.5 with some3's, I must be smart and take that edge with Jon Gruden here. Take the Raiders. Thank you.

08-15-19 Jets v. Falcons -1.5 22-10 Loss -110 29 h 41 m Show

Take Atlanta.

This is my MONEY PLAY.

Game 504.

4:30 pm pst.

The Atlanta Falcons are already 0-2, and took a loss last week to the NFL's worst team, the Miami Dolphins. The New York Jets took a defeat at the hands of the other New York team, the Giants. Both teams are slated to improve from last year's teams, but I feel the Falcons need to get in sync here. Take Atlanta. Thank you

08-10-19 Bengals +3.5 v. Chiefs 17-38 Loss -110 10 h 6 m Show

Take Cincinnati.

This is my LVSM.

Game 277.

5:00 pm pst.

The Kansas City Chiefs, along with the New England Patriots, are the favorites to not just take the AFC Championship at 3/1, but both are also the overall fav's to win the Super Bowl at 6/1. They are only one of seven teams touted to win double-digit games this season (10.5). They come off a 12-win campaign last year, losing to the Patriots in the AFC Title game, in OT. Cincinnati comes off a six-win season last year (slated to win six this year), is picked to finish last in the AFC North, is 50/1 to win the AFC and 100/1 in Super Bowl odds. The team and their fans don't expect too much this upcoming season. So coming out here and starting the campaign with a big showing will boost their confidence and give their loyal fans something to be excited about. They were 3-1 both SU and ATS in last year's exhibition play. The Chiefs will not put any of their playmakers at risk here, especially in Week 1 of the preseason and hurt any chances of returning to the AFC Championship and a possible Super Bowl appearance. Take the Bengals. Thank you.

08-09-19 Bucs v. Steelers -2.5 28-30 Loss -109 54 h 49 m Show

Take Pittsburgh.

This is my GOW.

Game 274.

4:30 pm pst.

There is a lot of pride within the Pittsburgh Steelers team and their fans. Despite the fact that they certainly aren't the team we got so accustomed to seeing over recent years, Pittsburgh is 9/1 to win the AFC championship. Big Ben is getting old and let's face it, he is injury prone. But yet, they are still a very tough team. Tampa Bay is picked to finish last in the NFC South this season and have to start their campaign here, facing a Pittsburgh team that went 6-2, both SU and ATS the last two exhibition season's in Heinz Field. TAKE THE STEELERS. Thank you.   

08-08-19 Chargers v. Cardinals -2 13-17 Win 100 32 h 25 m Show

Take Arizona.

This is my SHOCKER play.

Game 270.

7:00 pm pst.

 If this was a regular season game, it would be a massacre. Coming off a three-win season last year, Arizona should buy stock in aspirin and Kleenex. They are going to be a league doormat. Los Angeles notched 12 victories a season ago and are one of only six teams touted to have double-digit wins this season. Of course they share the division with the Chiefs, which along with the Patriots are the AFC's forecasted two best teams. But, the Chargers are surely an AFC elite. They have a real shot at the AFC championship. They will not put any playmakers at risk here. The Cardinals were 3-1, both SU and ATS in the 2018 preseason. TAKE ARIZONA. Thank you.

08-08-19 Redskins v. Browns +2 10-30 Win 100 30 h 2 m Show

Take Cleveland.

This is my BB play.

Game 258.

4:30 pm pst.

Once again this season, there is serious expectations for the Cleveland Browns. Yes, last season, they improved drastically. Yes, they have a tons of talent. And, yes, they are picked to win the very competitive, AFC North over perennial powerhouses, the Steelers and the Ravens. They take exhibition play very seriously, as they were 3-1, both SU and ATS a year ago. Washington is figured to finish dead last in the NFC East. To be quite honest, this is not a good team at all and I don't see them jeopardizing what little talent they have before the regular season begins. TAKE CLEVELAND. Thank you.

08-08-19 Colts v. Bills +2.5 16-24 Win 100 30 h 41 m Show

Take Buffalo.

This is my TD play.

Game 254.

4:00 pm pst.

There is high hopes for Indianapolis this season. The Colts are slated to win 10 games and reports are that they are much improved at both ends of the field. Buffalo is not a very good team and sharing the division with perennial AFC  East Champs, New England makes it even tougher. However, the Bills need to come out of the gate with a solid performance to boost their confidence and give their loyal fans a glimmer of hope. I don't expect you'll see any of the Colts key players see too much, if any, action. Despite a 3-1 SU and 4-0 ATS preseason record last year, I like Buffalo +2.5 here and if the line jumps up to a +3, it's time to pull the trigger. TAKE THE BILLS. Thank you.

08-01-19 Broncos -2.5 v. Falcons 14-10 Win 100 123 h 0 m Show

Take Denver.

This is my NFLX HOF Game Winner.

Game 241.

5:00 pm pst.

The Denver Broncos missed the playoffs last season and are only slated to win seven games this season, with odds of 40/1 to win the AFC. With John Elway on the hot seat and 1st year HC, Vic Fangio under the gun to start off the season with a bang, I like this team laying under a FG. They need to boost their confidence as a team and also generate a bit of excitement for their prideful and loyal, fan base. This is a team that is 6-2, both SU and ATS the last two exhibition seasons. By the way, the Broncos finished the regular season last year, losing four in a row both SU and ATS. Starting the 2019-2020 season off with a win would be huge here. The Atlanta Falcons missed the postseason as well last year. But, this is a team with a lot of talent, slated to win 8.5 games and are 15/1 to win the NFC. Under Dan Quinn, who is entering his fifth year as HC, this team is 0-8, both SU and ATS the last two NFLX campaigns. With more to lose if starters get injured, and not showing interest in August contests, I expect this Falcons team to not really try to hard here. Take Denver. Thank you.

08-25-18 Ravens -1 v. Dolphins 27-10 Win 100 21 h 9 m Show

Take Baltimore.

This is my LATE BAILOUT.

Game 275.

4:00 pm pst.

Baltimore is 3-0 SU in the pre-season, while Miami's 0-2 mark, makes the team 0-5 (both SU and ATS), their L5 outings going back to last season. The Dolphins have no defense and a very poor ground gamed. The Ravens are stacked at all key positions, have a lot to prove, and are led by a HC that wants to win in pre-season play. Baltimore is 8-0 ATS the L8 vs. Miami. Take the Ravens. Thank you.

08-25-18 49ers v. Colts 17-23 Loss -107 19 h 48 m Show

Take San Francisco.

This is my TD play.

Game 271.

1:30 pm pst.

San Francisco's trio of QBs, Beathard, Mullens, and Garoppolo have teamed up for 661 YP. Indy QB, Andrew Luck is slated to take a few more snaps here but his backups, Brissett, Walker, and Kaaya are just horrible. With no ground game to speak of, the Colts just can't score. The 49ers have a HC that believes in strong pre-season play. The Road Team is 5-1 ATS the L6 meetings in this series. Take San Francisco. Thank you.

08-25-18 Titans v. Steelers -4 6-16 Win 100 19 h 33 m Show

Take Pittsburgh.

This is my CASH MONEY PLAY.

Game 268.

1:00 pm pst.

Pittsburgh's offense has accounted for 65 points this pre-season, while Tennessee is 0-2, both SU and ATS, and has tallied a combined, 31 points thus far. Last year, the Steelers went 3-1 SU and ATS in exhibition play while the Titans went 1-3 SU and ATS. The Home Team is 4-1 ATS the L5 meetings in this series. Take Pittsburgh. Thank you.

08-24-18 Packers +6 v. Raiders 6-13 Loss -105 12 h 8 m Show

Take Green Bay.

This is my FNL play.

Game 263.

7:30 pm pst.

Reports are that Aaron Rodgers (check game time status) won't see action tonight. Whether he does or not, it won't matter here. Kizer, Hundley, and Boyle have combined for 635 YP and 5 TD's this preseason. NFL talk is that Kizer and Hundley are in a fight for the #2 spot. Derek Carr is slated to take a few more snaps but this Oakland offense has struggled to put points on the board and seems to be favoring the ground game. Take Green Bay. Thank you.

08-20-18 Ravens +1 v. Colts 20-19 Win 100 34 h 43 m Show

Take Baltimore.

This is my NFLX GAME OF THE WEEK.

Game 431.

5:00 pm pst.

Baltimore is 10-0 SU and 9-1 ATS the L10 pre-season contests. The Ravens HC, John Harbaugh puts a lot of stock in exhibition games. Joe Flacco is his starting QB and will see action here. But backups, Griffin III, Jackson, and Woodrum are all able play-callers. Indianapolis, although will be a better team this season with a Healthy, Andrew Luck, the team overall does not have the personnel to compete here. Luck's backups fall way short on talent. Take the Ravens. Thank you.

08-18-18 49ers +3 v. Texans 13-16 Push 0 9 h 58 m Show

Take San Francisco.

This is my NO LIMIT PLAY.

Game 423.

5:00 pm pst.

San Francisco is a highly-touted team this season. They have a HC that puts forth a strong effort in pre-season play. Houston is a decent team but falls short at the QB position with Weeden, Webb, and Watson. The 49ers need to keep their foot on the gas here. Take San Francisco. Thank you.

08-18-18 Jaguars v. Vikings -4 14-10 Loss -105 2 h 5 m Show

Take Minnesota.

This is my CASH MONEY PLAY.

Game 418.

10:00 am pst.

Minnesota lit up Denver in Week 1, 42-28. We all know how good the Vikings defense is, so shutting down the Jaguars offense won't be an issues. It's the Minny offense with Cousins, Sloter, and Siemian that will shred the Jacksonville "D". Take the Vikings. Thank you.

08-17-18 Bills v. Browns -3 19-17 Loss -120 10 h 36 m Show

Take Cleveland.

This is my BEST BET PLAY.

Game 414.

4:30 pm pst.

With the #1 overall draft pick and a few other key acquisitions, Cleveland has brought some excitement back to the city and their fans for the first time in years. With a 20-10 win and cover over the Giants LW, the browns are now 5-0 both SU and ATS their L5 exhibition contests. Buffalo has very little to be optimistic about and won't risk any playmakers here. Take Cleveland. Thank you.

08-16-18 Jets +1.5 v. Redskins 13-15 Loss -115 22 h 49 m Show

Take New York.

This is my TOUCHDOWN PLAY.

Game 403.

5:00 pm pst.

Washington blew a 17-0 lead in their pre-season opener to New England. Now, rookie RB and projected starter, Derrius Guice is sidelined for the season after suffering a torn ACL in LW's, 26-17 loss. The Redskins don't have too many playmakers and even less to be excited about for the upcoming season. Predicted as the NFC East's last place team and slated to win just 7 games, the team won't jeopardize any other key personnel. New York is in the same boat in both their Division and overall on the season. But the team did come out in Week 1 and showed some pride as they blanked Atlanta, 17-0. With 3 able QB's this year and a HC that led a very competitive pre-season squad last year (3-1 ATS), the Jets will come in here motivated and eager to impress their fans. Take New York. Thank you.

08-11-18 Chargers v. Cardinals -2.5 17-24 Win 100 12 h 41 m Show

Take Arizona.

This is my CMP.

Game 282.

7:00 pm pst.

LA has covered just 2 pre-season games over the L2 exhibition seasons. Philip Rivers' backups are Cardale Jones and Geno Smith. Sam Bradford's backups are Josh Rosen and Mike Glennon. They should have no problem putting points up on a Chargers defense that is non-existent in pre-season play. Take the Cardinals. Thank you.

08-11-18 Vikings v. Broncos 42-28 Win 100 11 h 48 m Show

Take Minnesota.

This is my TD play.

Game 279.

6:00 pm pst.

Minnesota is a team loaded with talent on both offense and defense. The Vikings are (along with the Eagles) the favorites to take the NFC. Denver is a mess, touted to finish last in the AFC West. Case Keenum and Paxton Lynch are in for a long night against the stout Minny "D". Take the Vikings. Thank you.

08-10-18 Lions +3 v. Raiders 10-16 Loss -103 11 h 10 m Show

Take Detroit.

Game 277.

7:30 pm pst.

The Raiders are not a team to try hard in pre-season play, covering just 4 games over the L5 exhibition seasons (4-16 ATS). New HC, Jon Gruden was just reported saying that his playmakers won't see too much action, if any. The Lions have a solid corps of backups that will be getting the bulk of the play here. The team is touted to finish 3rd in the NFC North and to win just 7.5 games. So they need a solid showing here for their own morale and the sake of the fans. Take Detroit. Thank you.

08-09-18 Titans v. Packers +1 17-31 Win 103 27 h 21 m Show

Take Green Bay.

This is my TOUCHDOWN PLAY.

Game 268.

5:00 pm pst.

Green Bay is once again an NFC elite team. This is a solid squad with a HC that does win in exhibition play. The Packers are 6-1-1 ATS the L2 pre-seasons. They possess an offense loaded with solid talent at the QB, RB, and receiver positions. QB's, Kizer and Hundley will put points on the board. Tennessee's key players were all big names on the collegiate level. Leading rusher, Derrick Henry is the teams workhorse and won't see too much action, if any. Take Green Bay. Thank you.

Take Washington.

This is my HIGH ROLLER PLAY.

Game 265.

4:30 pm pst.

There is no doubt that New England is the team to beat in the AFC. However, when it comes to pre-season football, HC, Bill Belichick is not known for trying too hard and certainly not to risk any of his playmakers. Washington is picked to finish last in the NFC East, touted for just 7 wins this upcoming season. They must have a good showing for their confidence, their proud city, and their fans. Giving this team 3.5 points is a gift. Take the Redskins. Thank you.

08-09-18 Browns v. Giants 20-10 Win 100 27 h 47 m Show

Take Cleveland.

This is my CASH MONEY PLAY.

Game 257.

4:00 pm pst.

The L2 seasons, Cleveland finished a combined, 1-31. Bringing in Baker Mayfield with the #1 overall pick has generated excitement. But the Browns front office has put quite a few talented players around the QB. The team is slated to win 5.5 games this season. One thing for sure, the entire organization knows they must start getting the city revved up so ticket sales start coming in. This is a team that was 4-0 both SU and ATS last pre-season. New York is in trouble. Outside of Saquon Barkley and Odell Beckham jr., Eli Manning doesn't have too many weapons at his disposal. The 37-year old QB just might be the 4th best starting QB in the NFC East. The Giants only covered 1 pre-season game a year ago and that was in Week 4. Take the Browns. Thank you.   

08-02-18 Bears v. Ravens 16-17 Win 100 98 h 44 m Show

Take Baltimore.

This is my Hall of Fame Game Winner.

Game 242.

5:00 pm pst.

The Baltimore Ravens take pre-season play very seriously, as they are 8-0 both SU and ATS the L2 NFL exhibition campaigns. John Harbaugh's team is once again picked to finish 2nd in the AFC North behind Pittsburgh. This doesn't sit well with the Head Coach. The team has 4 solid QB's on their roster. Each could be a starter in the League. Chicago, on the other hand, will not jeopardize Mitch Trubisky any time soon, especially with a team slated to win just 6 1/2 games this season. Take the Ravens. Thank you.

08-25-17 Chiefs v. Seahawks -3 13-26 Win 100 8 h 55 m Show

Take Seattle.

This is my TV Game winner.

Game 258.

5:00 pm pst.

Both teams are touted to be solid this season. However, Seattle (slated for 10 wins) seems to have their Division sewn up while Kansas City (9 wins) is in a dog fight with both Oakland and Denver in the AFC West. The Seahawks are further along with stellar play by QB', Russell Wilson and Trevone Boykin. Pete Carroll puts a lot of stock in pre-season contests, going 5-1 SU and ATS the L2 years, including a win and cover over KC 2 years ago. One more major factor is luxury of playing at home in front of the loudest crowd in football. Take Seattle. Thank you.
