The Indianapolis Colts visit the New Orleans Saints on Monday night in a game that can be seen on ESPN. The Colts are on life support in terms of their playoff chances, while the Saints are still trying for the top overall seed in the NFC. The Colts have lost three straight games and oddsmakers don’t think Indianapolis has much of a chance, as the Colts are listed as a 9-point road underdog. It is expected to be a high scoring game with the total listed at 47. Let’s look at the game and NFL pick... 

First place in the AFC South is on the line on Sunday, as the Houston Texans visit the Tennessee Titans on CBS. The Titans come into this game on a four-game winning streak and quarterback Ryan Tannehill is playing at a high level. On the other side, the Texans have been a bit inconsistent of late and they are listed as road underdogs in this game on Sunday. Let’s look at the game and NFL picks.... 

The Chicago Bears visit the Green Bay Packers on Sunday in a game that can be seen on FOX. The Bears are trying to stay alive in the NFC playoff race, while the Packers are hoping to stay in front of Minnesota in the NFC North. Bettors have been backing the underdog Bears in this one, as the line has dropped from 6.5 to 4. The Packers won an ugly game early in the season against the Bears by score of 10-3. Let’s look at Sunday’s contest and NFL picks.... 

Where is the smart money going in the NFL for Week 15? The key matchup of the week has the Houston Texans visiting the Tennessee Titans for first place in the AFC South. The Sunday night game on NBC could be low scoring, as the Bills visit the Steelers, while the Monday night game on ESPN could be high scoring, as the Colts visit the Saints. The money moves by the wise guys came through in a big way last week on the sides, going 6-1, while the totals struggled, going 1-3. Let’s take a look at the Week 15 NFL Wiseguy picks. ... 

If you want to win money betting NFL games then you need to be willing to take teams no one else wants to bet. I refer to these teams as ugly dogs and you really have to hold your nose sometimes when you bet on them, but history has shown that going against the public works. We went 2-0-1 last week to take the overall record for the season to 32-18-2. I think a note of caution is now advised simply because we are on a very nice roll and the end of the season can be a bit tricky, so we may want t... 

As bad as things look for the Philadelphia Eagles after losing their last three games, they still control their own destiny in terms of making the playoffs and their remaining schedule is easy. If the Eagles win their last four games they will win the NFC East and host a playoff game. The four-game stretch begins on Monday night on ESPN, as Philadelphia takes on the New York Giants. These teams will meet twice in the last four weeks, so that should be good news for the Eagles. Let’s look at the ... 

There are six teams listed with single-digit odds to win Super Bowl LIV led by the Baltimore Ravens at odds of just over 2-1. The Ravens are getting a lot of love from bettors, and it is hard to argue, as the Ravens have looked unstoppable on offense with Lamar Jackson having an MVP season. Despite the fact that New England lost to Baltimore, the Patriots are still getting respect in terms of Super Bowl odds, as they are the second choice in the betting at odds of 5-1. Let’s look at the latest S... 

If the Los Angeles Rams are going to make the playoffs then they almost assuredly need to win on Sunday night against the Seattle Seahawks in a game that can be seen on NBC. The Rams come into the game at 7-5 and trailing Minnesota by one game for the second Wild Card spot in the NFC. The Rams came alive last week in a big win over Arizona, but they get a much bigger test this week against a Seattle team that leads the NFC West with a record of 10-2. Let’s look at the game and NFL picks.... 

Where is the smart money going in the NFL for Week 14? It is a week full of marquee games in the NFL, as the 49ers visit the Saints, the Ravens visit the Bills, the Chiefs visit the Patriots and the Seahawks are at the Rams. The wiseguys have made some plays on two of those games in addition to a number of other games for Week 14. Let’s take a look at the Week 14 NFL Wiseguy picks. ... 

If you want to win money betting NFL games then you need to be willing to take teams no one else wants to bet. I refer to these teams as ugly dogs and you really have to hold your nose sometimes when you bet on them, but history has shown that going against the public works. We went 3-1 last week to take the overall record for the season to 30-18-1. There are three plays for this week, so let’s take a look at the Week 14 Ugly Dog picks. ... 

Week 14 in the NFL begins with an interesting contest on Thursday night, as the Dallas Cowboys visit the Chicago Bears on FOX. The Cowboys are just 6-6, but they lead the NFC East, while the Bears are almost out of playoff contention, even though they have the same record of 6-6. Chicago plays in the NFC North and they are three games behind Green Bay and not in much better shape in the Wild Card race. The Cowboys are getting a lot of respect from the oddsmakers, as they are 3-point road favorit... 

The Minnesota Vikings and Seattle Seahawks look like a pair of contenders in the NFC, but the road will be much tougher if they are not able to claim their division titles. Both are currently sitting as wild card entrants into the postseason and a victory in this head-to-head matchup on Monday night would be a big boost. The Vikings are tied with the Packers at 8-3 atop the NFC North, but do not have the tiebreaker. The Seahawks are 9-2 on the year but still sit a game behind the San Francisco 4... 

The Baltimore Ravens are coming on strong, but the New England Patriots are still holding steady to the No. 1 seed in the AFC. The Patriots held off the Cowboys last week to improve to 10-1 and now will turn their attention to the Houston Texans. There are big ramifications for New England and the Texans could also really use a victory. They came away with a crucial win last time out against the Colts and could really solidify their spot atop the AFC South with the slight upset of the Patriots.... 

The NFL regular season is hitting its stretch run, and by now bettors have a great idea of which teams are contenders and which teams are already looking forward to 2020. While that certainly helps weekly wagering, there are always things like injuries and other events that add some wrinkles to the process. The wiseguys do a great job of getting ahead of the trends, and that pays off more often than not due to the more favorable odds compared to the rest of the betting public. There has been som... 

If you want to win money betting NFL games then you need to be willing to take teams no one else wants to bet. I refer to these teams as ugly dogs and you really have to hold your nose sometimes when you bet on them, but history has shown that going against the public works. We went 2-1 last week to take the overall record for the season to 27-17-1. There are four games to take a look at for this week, so let’s take a look at the Week 13 Ugly Dog picks.... 

The Dallas Cowboys lost a close one to the New England Patriots last time out and owner Jerry Jones wasn’t happy, but the Cowboys have to put that behind them in a hurry. The Cowboys will turn around and play four days later when they host the Buffalo Bills in a Thanksgiving showdown. The Bills have two more wins than Dallas this season and is in great shape to grab a wild card berth in the AFC, but there is plenty of doubt about the validity of this team’s staying power in the playoffs. Buffalo... 

If you want to win money betting NFL games then you need to be willing to take teams no one else wants to bet. I refer to these teams as ugly dogs and you really have to hold your nose sometimes when you bet on them, but history has shown that going against the public works. We went 3-0 last week to take the overall record for the season to 25-16-1. We have another three plays to look at for this week. Let’s take a look at the Week 12 Ugly Dog picks.... 

The AFC South is completely up for grabs with six games remaining, as all four teams are within two games of each other heading down the stretch. The Houston Texans and Indianapolis Colts are tied for the divisional lead and someone will pull ahead in a critical head-to-head matchup in Week 12. The Texans have the superior talent and get this game at home, so they should be confident in picking up the win. However, the Colts have a strong all-around group and would love to pull the upset and wre... 

The Houston Texans got a reminder last week in a blowout loss at the Baltimore Ravens why they are considered a pretender with the NFL Odds. Now Houston must regroup with a key divisional matchup at home against the pesky Indianapolis Colts. The Colts were written off for dead when quarterback Andrew Luck retired during the final preseason game but have instead defied all odds and critics to be in a first-place tie with Houston in the AFC South. Meanwhile the Pittsburgh Steelers are injury riddl... 

Last year at this time Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay was being celebrated as a genius that was reinventing the game. LA’s success with the NFL Odds made them a coveted team with gamblers while McVay’s assistants were all getting NFL head coaching job interviews. Meanwhile John Harbaugh was being offered a blind fold and a cigarette before facing the firing squad. Harbaugh’s Baltimore Ravens were at the end of their rope. And then he put Lamar Jackson in at quarterback and things have ne... 

Despite a defense that has consistently been under par the Seattle Seahawks remain just one game behind the NFC West Division leading San Francisco 49ers. Quarterback Russell Wilson signed a bank busting deal with Seattle in the offseason which is paying huge dividends with the NFL Odds. By contrast the Philadelphia Eagles are blowing hot and cold. Head coach Doug Pederson’s team plays relatively solid defense but their offense continues to hit and miss at critical junctures. The Eagles are fort...

The Dallas Cowboys remain one of the all-time top teases with the NFL Odds. Last Sunday night the Cowboys proved to be good enough top suck in betting action and bad enough to fail to deliver the cash. On Sunday the Cowboys face the star-crossed Detroit Lions who are one of the most unlucky and inept franchises in pro football. Meanwhile the resurgent Miami Dolphins have won two in a row but have to prove its not fool’s gold against the Buffalo Bills. The New Orleans Saints are coming off a stun... 

The good news for Chiefs fans is that 2018 NFL MVP Patrick Mahomes returned at quarterback last week at Tennessee. The bad news is that the Kansas City defense has yet to prove it can be relied upon to hold leads and play at a championship level. Kansas City suffered a bad loss with the NFL Odds to the Titans because Steve Spagnuolo’s defense couldn’t apply the dagger to one of one of the worst offenses in the NFL. The Chargers have taken a big step back so far this season after being the near e... 

Last year Matt Nagy of the Chicago Bears and Sean McVay of the Los Angeles Rams were two of the hottest names in NFL coaching. Nagy won the NFC Central Division title in his first season with the Bears while McVay won the NFC championship with the Rams in 2018. As a result, the Rams and Bears were top preseason favorites with the NFL Odds in preseason. However, both teams and coaches have struggled in a most humbling way. Playoff berths are still possible but the margin for error is slim to none...
