Continue reading →: Jacksonville Jaguars at Green Bay Packers: Week 8 NFL Pick
Jacksonville Jaguars (1-5) at Green Bay Packers (4-3) So apparently Chad Henne is worse than Blaine Gabbert? I didn’t even know that was possible. Before he got hurt, Gabbert looked serviceable against Oakland’s terrible secondary last week, completing 8 of 12 for 110 yards and a touchdown. However, then Henne…

Continue reading →: New England Patriots at St. Louis Rams: Week 8 NFL Pick
New England Patriots (4-3) “at” St. Louis Rams (3-4) What’s wrong with the Patriots? That’s what people have been asking for 2 weeks. Last week, the answer to that question was nothing. Losing in Seattle to a tough Seahawks team is not an embarrassing loss or a huge upset as…

Continue reading →: New York Giants at Dallas Cowboys: Week 8 NFL Pick
New York Giants (5-2) at Dallas Cowboys (3-3) This line opened as Cowboys -1 and I was ready to make a big play on the Giants for several reasons. For starters, in the Tom Coughlin era, they are 39-21 ATS as a dog. Also in the Tom Coughlin era, they…

Continue reading →: Oakland Raiders at Kansas City Chiefs: Week 8 NFL Pick
Oakland Raiders (2-4) at Kansas City Chiefs (1-5) Before the bye, I made a big play on the Chiefs to win in Tampa Bay because I felt they were undervalued because of their terrible turnover differential. I noted how they were on a record worst pace in turnover differential and…

If you’re wondering who Barry Church is, don’t feel bad. He’s a 2010 undrafted free agent who has made 4 career starts and is currently on IR after tearing his Achilles week 3. Apparently, the Cowboys felt it was urgent to give him a 4 year extension worth 12.4 million…

Continue reading →: New Orleans Saints at Denver Broncos: Week 8 NFL Pick
New Orleans Saints (2-4) at Denver Broncos (3-3) Drew Brees looks like Drew Brees again. He struggled, by his standards, in his first few games out of the gate, but you had to figure that eventually he’d get it together, even without Sean Payton, because he’s just too talented. In…

Continue reading →: Seattle Seahawks at Detroit Lions: Week 8 NFL Pick
Seattle Seahawks (4-3) at Detroit Lions (2-4) I feel like I say this about the Seahawks every week when I pick their game, but I love picking their games because they have such a big home/road disparity. On the road, they are 16-29 ATS since 2007, as opposed to 30-14…

Continue reading →: Indianapolis Colts at Tennessee Titans: Week 8 NFL Pick
Indianapolis Colts (3-3) at Tennessee Titans (3-4) The winner of this game between the Colts and Titans will either be over .500 or at .500 and well in contention for a playoff spot in the AFC. I told you the AFC sucks. The Titans, however, will be hurt in this…

Continue reading →: Washington Redskins at Pittsburgh Steelers: Week 8 NFL Pick
Washington Redskins (3-4) at Pittsburgh Steelers (3-3) In a couple other of my picks this week, I said it would be reckless to pick a heavily public backed dog this week with one exception. Dogs are 63-39 ATS on the season. You might think, that’s a reason to take the…

Continue reading →: San Francisco 49ers at Arizona Cardinals: Week 8 NFL Pick
San Francisco 49ers (5-2) at Arizona Cardinals (4-3) In NFC West matchups, the rule of thumb is to pick the home team. Since 2007, no other division comes close to covering at home at a rate as high as the NFC West, which is 103-74 ATS at in that time…
