They’ve dropped two in a row and all seven of their losses this season have be... 

The biggest game of the Week 13 NFL betting schedule takes place on Monday Night when the New England Patriots visit the Buffalo Bills in a key AFC East showdown. The teams play twice in the span of three weeks with the outcomes playing a big part in determining the division winner.

One win is all that separates the Kansas City Chiefs from the rest of the AFC West pack making their Sunday Night Football matchup with the Denver Broncos a huge game in the standings. The Chiefs have dominated within the division during their run of five straight titles and the Broncos have been victimized the most dropping the previous 11 meetings. And after a s... 

The luster for this first go-round between the AFC North rival Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers has lost much of its luster with the former sitting perched atop the AFC pecking order and the latter currently sitting on the outside looking into the playoff picture. John Harbaugh’s troops enter this tilt having won and covered the closing NFL odds at online sportsbooks each of the last two weeks in a pair of hard fought victories against the Chicago Bears and Cleveland Browns. That Week 10... 

Some of the best bets in the NFL each week are oftentimes wagers on teams that are considered the worst in the league. If you want to win money betting NFL games then you need to be willing to take teams no one else wants to bet. We 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 are coming off a 3-1 week and that makes us 10-4 over the last three weeks. Let’s take a look at the Week 13 Ugly Dog picks. ... 

The Dallas Cowboys visit the New Orleans Saints on Thursday night in a game that can be seen on FOX. Both teams are struggling of late, as the Cowboys have dropped their past two games, while the Saints have lost four in a row. Despite their recent losses, the Cowboys are in firm control of the NFC East, but the Saints are now in serious jeopardy of not making the playoffs. The Saints could be getting some good news soon, as Alvin Kamara, Mark Ingram and Ryan Ramczyk returned to practice on Sund... 

The return of Russell Wilson hasn’t been able to stop the slide the Seattle Seahawks are currently in. Seattle has dropped two straight since Wilson got back in the lineup, and five of its last six games falling further off the pace in the NFC West and in the conference. The team is headed toward its worst record since Pete Carroll took over as head coach ahead of the 2010 season. The Seahawks look to stop the bleeding in Week 12 when they visit the Washington Football Team on Monday Night Football. The team formerly known as the Redskins has been wagered up to a slight favorite after hitting the board as a 3-point underdog. ... 

With both teams having questions regarding their starting quarterback ahead of their Week 12 Sunday Night Football matchup, it might be more interesting to bet on who plays. The critical AFC North contest between the Cleveland Browns and Baltimore Ravens could be a battle of backups. With Lamar Jackson a late scratch last week with an illness, Baltimore rallied be... 

Another loaded slate is set to go down at online sportsbooks in the Week 12 afternoon slate with the matchup between the Los Angeles Rams and Green Bay Packers the crème de le crème of the bunch. This is a big spot for Sean McVay’s troops with LA falling all the way down to the NFC’s No. 5 seed after dropping a head scratching 31-10 decision on MNF to the division rival San Francisco 49ers before going on bye. The defeat was the first absorbed on the road through five tries (2-3 ATS). As for Gre...

Two teams that were thought of as sure playoff teams, but have struggled recently, meet on Thursday Night, as the Buffalo Bills visit the New Orleans Saints. It was just a few weeks ago that the Bills were thought to be one of the top teams in the NFL but Buffalo has dropped two of three games and they now trail New England in the AFC East. The Saints were considered a th... 

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have not lost three consecutive games since Tom Brady joined the franchise. They’ll take a two-game losing streak into their Week 11 Monday Night Football tilt with the New York Giants. Brady has been part of the problem throwing a pair of picks in each of the two losses during the skid and the offense soured matching a season-low point to... 

The Week 11 Sunday slate of games concludes with a critical AFC matchup between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Los Angeles Chargers. Pittsburgh extended its unbeaten streak to five games by tying Detroit last week, but they could end up regretting not getting a win over the worst team in the league. The Chargers are heading the other direction with Sunday’s loss to Minnesota their third in four games. Ben Roethlisberger missed Sunday’s contest after testing positive for COVID and he could be on the... 

The Week 11 afternoon NFL betting slate is the nuts! Three games with three point spreads of a field goal or less? I’d buy that for a dollar! One of those matchups pits a pair of Super Bowl LVI contenders up against one another with Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys set to square off against Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in an expected high scoring affair. Each team enters this epic non-conference showdown having flexed their muscles with Big D skunking the Atlanta Falcons 43-3 at...

Losers in five of their last six games and winless at home this season, the San Francisco 49ers look to put a stop to both skids when they host the Los Angeles Rams in the Week 10 edition of Monday Night Football. The Rams will attempt to get back in the win column and stay within striking distance of NFC West leader Arizona after a humbling setback to the Titans last week put an end to their 4-game winning streak. The Rams will have to stop a 4-game losing skid to the Niners and they are positioned as a 4-point favorite on the NFL betting line to do that. This regular season Week 10 matchup will take place on Monday, November 15, 2021 at 8:15 p.m. ET at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, CA and will be televised on ESPN. ... 

To say the AFC West is up for grabs doesn’t even begin to scratch the surface. All four teams enter Week 10 with five victories making games within the division even more important. The weekend closes with a bitter matchup between longtime rivals the Kansas City Chiefs and Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday Night Football. The Raiders are coming off an upset loss to the Giant... 

The gauntlet of a schedule the Minnesota Vikings have recently been forced to deal with picks right back up in Week 10 with Mike Zimmer’s troops venturing into Tinseltown for a date with Justin Herbert and the AFC West leading Los Angeles Chargers. By going into the City of Brotherly Love and coming out with a last second win against the Philadelphia Eagles, Brandon Staley’s squad currently rates out as the No. 3 seed in the AFC behind the Baltimore Ravens and top-seeded Tennessee Titans. As for SKOL, it currently sits on the outside looking into the NFC playoff picture due entirely to its five overall losses coming by an average of just 3.6 points per game. They could be the top seed in the conference had things broken their way! With that, this matchup is likely to be very competitive as evidenced by online sportsbooks only installing the Bolts field goal home favorites against a five-loss opponent. Due to Minnesota’s inability to win close games, the betting markets have lined up in droves to back the Chargers on the NFL odds. ...

Teams headed in opposite directions collide on Monday Night Football when the Chicago Bears visit the Pittsburgh Steelers in an interconference tilt. The Steelers followed up a three-game losing streak by winning three straight. They are right back in the race for the AFC North title while moving into a playoff spot in the conference. Offensive woes continue to hold back the Bears, who have lost three in a row SU and ATS. Pittsburgh opened as a 5-point favorite with the spread growing throughout the week. Oddsmakers aren’t expecting a lot of points with the total at a Week 9 low 38.5. This regular season Week 9 matchup will take place on Monday, November 8, 2021 at 8:15 p.m. ET at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh, PA and will be televised on ESPN. ... 

The Tennessee Titans were cruising with a four-game winning streak following last week’s triumph over division rival Indianapolis. At 6-2 they own the best record in the AFC with convincing triumphs over heavyweights Buffalo and Kansas City. However, they suffered a major blow last Sunday when NFL rushing leader Derrick Henry was diagnosed with a foot injury that will require surgery putting him on the shelf for the rest of the season. We’ll see how the Titans respond without Henry when they take on the Los Angeles Rams in the Week 9 edition of Sunday Night Football. The betting world reacted shifting the opening line from LA -4 to -8 soon after the news was revealed. ... 

The COVID monster has completely changed the dynamic of the Week 9 matchup between the Green Bay Packers and Kansas City Chiefs. It kept Davante Adams and other wide receivers out of last week’s game in Arizona, but Matt LaFleur’s troops still overcame the absences and came up with the impressive 24-21 outright win as 6.5-point desert dogs. But this time around, Aaron Rodgers will be prevented from nestling in under center which affords the Chiefs struggling defense a likely easier go of it agai...

Let’s take a look at the Week 9 Ugly Dog Picks. ... 

The Kansas City Chiefs will attempt to snap out of a funk that has them below .500 for the first time since Patrick Mahomes became the team’s starting quarterback when they host the New York Giants in the Week 8 edition of Monday Night Football. The two-time defending AFC champions are mired in a two-game losing streak that has them at the bottom of the AFC West standings, and their issues appear to be much deeper. But it’s nothing a victory can’t solve and the Chiefs are positioned as a 9.5-poi...
