NFL Football Picks

The Broncos suffered a tough loss last week after some poor play calling and clock management in the fourth quarter. It could be argued that the Titans should of win by more because of Gostkowski’s kicking miscues, but Denver had their fair share of getting stuffed on the goal line, a penalty that prevented a huge INT and some other enigmas. The Steelers started out slow last week but came storming back in the second half. They return to Heinz Field where Big Ben generally plays better. Get Loot’s Den/Pit pick here!

The extra days off the Chiefs got to enjoy will surely help their game planning as they had more time to do so but will it be enough to cover a massive -8.5 point spread on the road? The Chargers were mediocre last week at Cincinnati. Will they have enough to stay with Patrick Mahomes and his high-flying offense? We may have a live barking dog here!

A pair of teams who most thought wouldn’t win last week did just that! The Washington Football Team vs. Arizona Cardinals might actually be the best game of Week 2 NFL! Both squads looked much improved but despite the big win for Washington, they’re still getting zero respect as they come into this contest as big +7 underdog. While not a great game to bet on due to so many unknowns, Darin gives you his take on how it will play out.

Sunday features a pair of teams who were expected to do well, but both got their butts handed to them. The Vikings result wasn’t a huge surprise, but the Indianapolis Colts losing to the Jaguars straight up? Unthinkable! Minnesota rolls into Lucas Oil Stadium for a game that has both bettors and bookies perplexed. Get Loot’s take on this confusing Week 2 matchup!

Both teams came away with victoies and spread covers in Week 1, but football handicapper Mike Mann believes that one team stands out in this matvh up. Read on to get his analysis and SNF pick.

If you watch a lot of Ravens games you’ll often times hear announcers refer to their offensive line as “Road Graders”. It’s very difficult to lose in the NFL when you have all day to throw, gaping holes to run through and a tight end built like Gronk on steroids. While laying -7 on the road in the NFL is a scary proposition, it might be like taking candy from a baby in vs. the Texans this week.

The Week Two NFL matchup between the NYG and Chicago Bears is tougher than it looks. The G-Men will be on a short week and while the Bears won last week at Detroit, keep in mind they were down BIG in the fourth quarter. The comeback was nice, but doesn’t signify being good. See how Keith is betting this one.

It’s not very often that the “square take” is a winning proposition in NFL football betting, but this week provides us with an exception to the rule. The New York Jets looked like hot garbage last weekend vs. a good Bills team. The Niners didn’t look very good either, but we’re chalking that up to an enigma as they’re not as bad as they played and the Cardinals aren’t as good as they performed. This is a smash spot for the Niners!

Two teams meet up in Week 2 that we thought we’d see more out of last week. The Atlanta Falcons got leveled on their home turf vs. a high-flying Seahawks team and the Cowboys never really got it going vs. the Rams. We expect a better effort out of both, but who will cover? Get Jay’s bet here!

Week 1 Monday Night Football presents us with a really tough betting matchup. The Titans vs. Broncos game leaves too many questionable variables to bet any serious money on. Loot does the best job he can to give you a breakdown of how he thinks the game will play out.
