Continue reading →: Seattle Seahawks at Arizona Cardinals: 2022 Week 9 NFL Pick
Seattle Seahawks (5-3) at Arizona Cardinals (3-5) The Cardinals were at the top of my overrated teams list coming into the season. They went 11-6 last season, but needed a +12 turnover margin to get to that record, which is not predictive, and they ranked just 14th in overall efficiency,…

Continue reading →: Las Vegas Raiders at Jacksonville Jaguars: 2022 Week 9 NFL Pick
Las Vegas Raiders (2-5) at Jacksonville Jaguars (2-6) The Jaguars are just 2-6, but they actually have a positive point differential at +14, as all six of their losses have come by eight points or fewer, with an average margin of 6.3 points per game, while their two wins have…

Philadelphia Eagles (7-0) at Houston Texans (1-5-1) A week ago on the early line, the Eagles were favored by 9 points in this matchup with the Texans in Houston, but this line has since shifted all the way up to 14. Normally I like to fade significant week-to-week line movements…

Continue reading →: Cincinnati Bengals at Cleveland Browns: 2022 Week 8 NFL Pick
Cincinnati Bengals (4-3) at Cleveland Browns (2-5) The Browns are just 2-5, but they aren’t getting blown out, with all but one of their losses coming by a field goal or less. Their point differential is -18, which is better than their record would suggest, and they are even better…

Continue reading →: New England Patriots at New York Jets: 2022 Week 8 NFL Pick
New England Patriots (3-4) at New York Jets (5-2) The Jets are off to a surprising 5-2 start and, while they probably aren’t as good as that record suggests, they are probably still better than they are being given credit for, as 2.5-point home underdogs against the Patriots. It’s surprising…

Continue reading →: New York Giants at Seattle Seahawks: 2022 Week 8 NFL Pick
New York Giants (6-1) at Seattle Seahawks (4-3) The Giants are a surprising 6-1, but all of their wins have come by one score and they have been lucky to win some of them. Despite their record, they actually rank just 22nd in schedule adjusted efficiency, about two points below…

Continue reading →: Las Vegas Raiders at New Orleans Saints: 2022 Week 8 NFL Pick
Las Vegas Raiders (2-4) at New Orleans Saints (2-5) It’s unfortunate that these teams are playing this week, as I think both are underrated and significantly better than their record. The Saints are 2-5, but their primary issue has been the turnover margin, ranking dead last in the NFL at…

Continue reading →: San Francisco 49ers at Los Angeles Rams: 2022 Week 8 NFL Pick
San Francisco 49ers (3-4) at Los Angeles Rams (3-3) The 49ers added Christian McCaffrey to an already talented roster last week and figure to feature him in something resembling a full role this week, giving the 49ers among the most top level talent in the league, but they also have…

Continue reading →: Washington Commanders at Indianapolis Colts: 2022 Week 8 NFL Pick
Washington Commanders (3-4) at Indianapolis Colts (3-3-1) Both of these teams acquired veteran quarterbacks this off-season, with the Commanders taking Carson Wentz off the Colts hands so they could replace him with ex-Falcon Matt Ryan, but neither quarterback will play in this game, with Wentz injured and Ryan getting benched…
