Bookmark this page and check back often for free weekly NFL football picks from the Predictem.com Staff.
What to Expect: Expert NFL football picks from our in house handicappers which are usually released Friday afternoon (or sooner) each week. We also may or may not add plays to this page later on, as we find more pertinent information constituting a play. We're not a huge advocate of making oodles of plays, so we only make a move when there is value which usually means 1-5 plays per week.
Our main goal here is to turn a profit over the course of the full NFL season. All facets of sports betting are a marathon, not a sprint, so you need to understand this ahead of time. We will win and we will lose. We are however more likely to win and show a nice profit by seasons end so we suggest that you play all our picks, even if you question them. This often times means betting on bad teams. Good teams win, bad teams cover.
While our picks may seem questionable at times, we've been around the block and we know what we're doing. Just get on it and hold on tight!
Our picks here are free, always 100% free to our readers. If your're winning nicely and want to pay us back or help us out the best thing you can do is play with our online sportsbook advertisers. By sending them new players, this in turn keeps them happy with us which means we can continue to give out our weekly NFL picks without charging like a sports service does. Your're gonna bet somewhere anyway, why not play with our advertisers? Check them out here: Sportsbook Reviews.
