Miami’s won seven games in a row but who are they beating? Houston, the Jets, Carolina, the

Giants. Not exactly Murderers’ Row. Also, the Dolphins are only averaging 87 yards per game

on the ground. Tennessee, meanwhile, owns wins over the Bills, Chiefs, Colts, Rams and 49ers

and is averaging 153 YPG on the ground over its last five games, without Henry! Plus, the best

unit on the field will probably be the Titans defense. We like Tennessee here, minus the points.

Free Pick: Take the Titans -3.5

Sunday Dec 26, 2021

The betting line is more appropriate for this match-up, but I still side with the Cowboys, who have the more realistic paths to cover. Take Dallas -10

Free Pick: Take the Cowboys -10

Sunday Dec 26, 2021

This should be a bet one makes with some discomfort. A Rams walloping looms as a distinct possibility. We’ve seen urgency not resonate well before in a lot less-troublesome spots with this Minnesota bunch. Kirk Cousins could put forth a big dud. A defense that can fold at any time, including a secondary that looks to get pushed thin this week could lead to this backfiring. But given the crapshoot appeal of the Rams’ team as a whole, the extra-short week, and a robust task for the LA road-defense is enough to give the Vikings the necessary upside this week to warrant a good look. I’ll take the Vikings and the points at home. 

Free Pick: Take the Vikings

Sunday Dec 26, 2021

Baltimore is probably without Jackson for this game, but Huntley is playing well. Also, we’ve

already seen this season the Ravens cover a spread without Jackson, the Browns won a game without Baker Mayfield, Arizona won a couple of games without Kyler Murray. The Packers covered a game without Aaron Rodgers. Also, Cincinnati is only 3-4 SU, 2-5 ATS at home this season. We won’t call for the outright upset here, but we’re taking Baltimore plus the points.

Free Pick: Take the Ravens

Thursday Dec 23, 2021

San Francisco is hot, Tennessee is not, which means a lot when handicapping this game. The 49ers are running the ball, getting good play at QB, and playing great defense. The Titans, meanwhile, just aren't the same team without Henry. So we like the 49ers here, minus the points.       

Free Pick: Take San Francisco -3.5

Tuesday Dec 21, 2021

This could be a game where we see the Seattle team liabilities manifest in a more-vivid way than what we've been seeing. That includes suspect play along both lines of scrimmage, a depreciated run-game, a limited aerial scope for Wilson, along with a defense that might be prime to hit a wall. I suspect the Rams will have an easier time converting production into point-scoring on Tuesday. And on defense, they should get after Wilson with a fervor, while perhaps eliciting some mistakes from the Seattle offense. In the end, I see the Rams laying it on heavy at home and getting to the finish line with the win and cover in week 15.

Free Pick: Take the Rams

Monday Dec 20, 2021

At seven losses and with pending matchups against the Packers and Rams, I’m not sure how pertinent the postseason urgency card is here for the Vikings. Maybe it’s on their mind, but then it also would have been on their mind when they lost to Detroit a few weeks ago. Despite both teams having a slew of recent games that sailed far above the “over,” I picture at least a slightly more-subdued offensive game this week. And if not, I’m not so sure the Bears are at as extreme a firepower deficit that some imagine. Whereas we saw a version of Fields earlier in the season who was focusing more on not screwing up, we have arrived at a point of the season where they seem to be letting him turn it loose to a greater degree. In any event, I think the Bears will keep this competitive enough to cover the spread on MNF. I’ll take Chicago.

Free Pick: Take Chicago +6

Sunday Dec 19, 2021

 Despite a few subpar performances in recent weeks, Dallas has still been the best team for bettors in the NFL, going 10-3 ATS. Considering the extreme match-up advantages on both sides of the football, I have a hard time believing the Giants can contend in this spot. Simply put, the Cowboys have more reliable paths to a win and cover. As a result, I'm taking the Cowboys -11!

Free Pick: Take Dallas -11

Saturday Dec 18, 2021

Both these teams are playing some good ball as of late, but ultimately we believe the Indianapolis

running game, powered by former Wisconsin Badger Jonathan Taylor, will make the difference.

On the season, the Colts are out-rushing opponents by 40 yards per game while New England is

out-grounding foes by nine YPG. And in the NFL, teams that win the ground battles cover the

spread about 65 percent of the time. So we like Indy here.

Free Pick: Take Indianapolis

Thursday Dec 16, 2021

These two teams are nearly identical offensively, but we give Kansas City the check-mark on defense because of that unit's great recent play and the fact that the Chargers rank 31st in the league against the run. So we like the Chiefs here, giving the short spread at a place with very little home-field advantage.     

Free Pick: Take Kansas City -3

Monday Dec 13, 2021

Not that beating a longtime thorn in their sides won't provide Arizona ample motivation and set them up for the big late-season run. At home, this has to be huge for them. But as far as regular season turning-point games, this is clearly "the one" for the Rams, and I expect them to perform accordingly. And while taking such a position could be steeped in fallacy given their recent form, along with what might be a half-cocked view of the Cardinals not being in top-flight, I see the Rams being hard to stop this week. I'll take the Rams.

Free Pick: Take the LA Rams +2.5

Sunday Dec 12, 2021

Our pick on this game really comes down to one guy, Cincinnati RB Joe Mixon. Three games ago, Mixon got 30 touches, the Bengals scored 32 points, won, and covered; two games ago, he got 32 touches, Cincy scored 41 points, won, and covered. Last week, though, Cincinnati fell behind right away, then Mixon got hurt. He's listed as questionable for Sunday. However, our guess is he'll play. We'll check his status Sunday morning, but from three days out, we like the Bengals to bounce back here.   

Free Pick: Take the Benglas +1.5

Sunday Dec 12, 2021

The Buccaneers play their best football at home, and I think the match-ups favor them this week as well. I'm taking Tampa Bay -3.5

Free Pick: Take Tampa Bay -3.5

Thursday Dec 09, 2021

Usually, we'd consider Pittsburgh a good candidate for a letdown here, coming off that emotional win last week, and Minnesota, a good candidate to bounce back, coming off that upset loss. But this Minnesota team will probably be without RB Cook and WR Thielen and probably shouldn't be favored by 3.5 points over anybody. The Steelers found a way to win last week while the Vikings found a way to lose, and that's kind of the story with these two teams over recent seasons. So for a game that could well come down to a field goal at the end, we'll take the three and a hook with Pittsburgh.    

Free Pick: Take Pittsburgh

Monday Dec 06, 2021

I don’t think the New England surge is a smoke and mirrors show or just a byproduct of drawing some cooperative opposition. But a road-spot against Buffalo represents what could be a much higher level of difficulty than the recent contexts in which the Pats have been shining. And the kind of overall understated competence that the Pats have could put a crimp in the Bills high-flying ways. But I think the combination of a home-spot, overall urgency, and some better offensive weaponry will see the Bills through in this spot. I’ll take Buffalo.</p>

 

Free Pick: Take the Bills

Sunday Dec 05, 2021

Kansas City is winning games recently because it’s held its last four opponents to a total of 47 points. Meanwhile, we consider Denver a good candidate for a letdown this week, following that big divisional win at home last week. So while the line on this game is probably inflated by a couple of points we still like the Chiefs.

Free Pick: Take Kansas City -9.5

Sunday Dec 05, 2021

It's not hard to picture either team suddenly shifting into pretty much any form. Russell Wilson getting on a roll is not off the table, nor is the possibility that this latest surge from San Francisco has come to the end of the line. Expecting things to play out on a predictable continuum almost seems too easy when breaking down this spot. Taking Seattle might not be as wacky as it seems to those who are really sold on the Niners this week. I still see San Francisco evening the slate with Seattle this week, getting the win and cover on Sunday.

Free Pick: Take San Francisco -3

Sunday Dec 05, 2021

The Bucs hold all the match-up edges in this game so I feel comfortable laying the big number.

Free Pick: Take Tampa Bay -11

Thursday Dec 02, 2021

Despite the recent poor play and casualty lists for both teams, Dallas is just the better team in this match-up. Also, it looks like New Orleans is down to its 3rd-string quarterback. Plus, we expect the Cowboys to recover from this 1-3 stretch to go on and win the NFC East while our prognosis for the Saints isn't nearly as encouraging. We'll take the Cowboys minus the points.  

Free Pick: Take Dallas -6 (Zank had this at -4.5)

Sunday Nov 28, 2021

It would be very understandable for one to defer to the 49ers' recent dependability in this spot over the Vikings' more explosive but far more-erratic winning formula. And for some reason, being 5-5 is more impressive for the Niners with all they've faced than it is for the Vikings, who have really underachieved until very recently. Still, with a Minnesota offense that seems to be clicking, I sense some of San Fran's shortcomings will come more to light this week, as the Vikings ride their superior weaponry to a cover at Levi's Stadium on Sunday. I'll take the Vikings.

 

Free Pick: Take Minnesota +3
