Miami Dolphins (0-1) at New England Patriots (1-0) The Dolphins are in a much better spot than the Patriots here, as they have arguably the easiest game of their season on deck, a home game against the Browns in which they’re favored by a touchdown in the early line, while…

Kansas City Chiefs (1-0) at Houston Texans (1-0) The Texans are in a tough spot this week, as they’re favored by 2 at home against the Chiefs, but have to turn around and play in New England in 4 days after this game on Thursday Night Football, a game in…

Continue reading →: Seattle Seahawks at Los Angeles Rams: 2016 Week 1 NFL Pick
Seattle Seahawks (1-0) at Los Angeles Rams (0-1) Coming into the season, I had the Rams as one of the worst teams in the league. They won 7 games last season, but they also needed good luck in close games to even go 7-9. Of those 7 wins, 5 came…

Continue reading →: Atlanta Falcons at Oakland Raiders: 2016 Week 2 NFL Pick
Atlanta Falcons (0-1) at Oakland Raiders (1-0) The Raiders won a crazy shootout in come-from-behind fashion last week in New Orleans, winning 35-34 in a game that had a combined 993 total yards of offense. The Raiders moved the chains at an impressive 82.86% rate, just slightly better than the…

New Orleans Saints (0-1) at New York Giants (1-0) The Saints’ defense was bad last week, allowing 35 points, 486 yards of offense, and 82.86% rate of moving the chains at home against an Oakland team with a solid, but unspectacular offense. However, their defense could be even worse this…

Continue reading →: Philadelphia Eagles at Chicago Bears: 2016 Week 2 NFL Pick
Philadelphia Eagles (1-0) at Chicago Bears (0-1) Coming into the season, I thought the Eagles were one of the most underrated teams in the league. Even after trading Sam Bradford to the Vikings, their 3.5 point week 1 line at home against the Browns didn’t make any sense and neither…

Continue reading →: Jacksonville Jaguars at San Diego Chargers: 2016 Week 2 NFL Pick
Jacksonville Jaguars (0-1) at San Diego Chargers (0-1) Before the season started, the Chargers were one of the teams I expected to have a significant jump in wins this season, after winning just 4 in 2015. That theory was based on the assumptions that the Chargers would have better luck…

Continue reading →: San Francisco 49ers at Carolina Panthers: 2016 Week 2 NFL Pick
San Francisco 49ers (1-0) at Carolina Panthers (0-1) The 49ers technically pulled the upset victory at home as 2.5 point underdogs against the Rams last week, but that shouldn’t really be considered an upset as the Rams are just as bad as the 49ers are, probably even worse if last…

Continue reading →: Cincinnati Bengals at Pittsburgh Steelers: 2016 Week 2 NFL Pick
Cincinnati Bengals (1-0) at Pittsburgh Steelers (1-0) The Steelers got a huge 38-16 win in Washington on Monday Night Football week 1, led by an offense that moved the chains at an 82.35% rate. They seem to have picked up right where they left off last season when Ben Roethlisberger…

Continue reading →: Dallas Cowboys at Washington Redskins: 2016 Week 2 NFL Pick
Dallas Cowboys (0-1) at Washington Redskins (0-1) The Cowboys lost a very close one at home last week to the Giants, losing 20-19 in a game in which they actually moved the chains at a better rate than their opponents (78.13% to 77.78%). The Cowboys have not had much homefield…
