Continue reading →: Detroit Lions at Minnesota Vikings: 2018 Week 9 NFL Pick
Detroit Lions (3-4) at Minnesota Vikings (4-3-1) This game has a lot of injury uncertainty. The Lions could get Ezekiel Ansah back for the first time since week 1, but that’s far from a guarantee, as he continues to be limited in practice. Meanwhile, both right guard TJ Lang and…

New York Jets (3-5) at Miami Dolphins (4-4) When these two teams met in week 2, the Dolphins got an upset victory as road underdogs in New York, winning 20-12. That doesn’t necessarily mean the Dolphins will win at home though. In fact, divisional home favorites only win about 55%…

Continue reading →: Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Carolina Panthers: 2018 Week 9 NFL Pick
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-4) at Carolina Panthers (5-2) The Buccaneers have had a crazy season under center. With regular starter Jameis Winston suspended for the first 3 games of the season for an off-the-field violation, they started veteran journeyman Ryan Fitzpatrick and watched him carry them to victories against the…

Continue reading →: Green Bay Packers at New England Patriots: 2018 Week 9 NFL Pick
Green Bay Packers (3-3-1) at New England Patriots (6-2) This line was New England -7.5 last week on the early line, but it has shifted to 5 this week. That original line was probably too high, like Packers/Rams line last week when the Packers were 9-point underdogs, but that’s a…

Pittsburgh Steelers (4-2-1) at Baltimore Ravens (4-4) When I saw the Ravens open as mere 2.5-point home favorites against the Steelers, I expected to bet them this week. They were 3-point home favorites on the early line last week, but their blowout loss in Carolina shifted this line off the…

Continue reading →: Kansas City Chiefs at Cleveland Browns: 2018 Week 9 NFL Pick
Kansas City Chiefs (7-1) at Cleveland Browns (2-5-1) I’ve been going against the Chiefs in recent weeks because when everyone knows a team is good, it’s tough to get good line value with them. As well as they’ve played, they are just 2-2-1 ATS in their last 5 games. This…

Continue reading →: Los Angeles Chargers at Seattle Seahawks: 2018 Week 9 NFL Pick
Los Angeles Chargers (5-2) at Seattle Seahawks (4-3) I was hoping the Chargers would get Joey Bosa back from injury following their week 8 bye because I think with him healthy they are a legitimate contender, but would likely not be considered one by the general public, giving us some…

Continue reading →: Atlanta Falcons at Washington Redskins: 2018 Week 9 NFL Pick
Atlanta Falcons (3-4) at Washington Redskins (5-2) The Redskins were on my overrated list at the beginning of the week, just because I didn’t think their 5-2 record was indicative of how they’ve played. They’ve benefitted from a 3-0 record in games decided by 7 points or less and a…

Oakland Raiders (1-6) at San Francisco 49ers (1-7) Things have gone from bad to worse for the 49ers. Already without quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo for the season with a torn ACL, now backup CJ Beathard is dealing with a hand and wrist injury on his throwing arm. Beathard is still expected…
