Sunday 02/01 06:25 PM Eastern
Multiple Picks

Who would’ve thought we’d see Carolina in the Super Bowl two years after their 1-15 2001 season? I’ll admit I didn’t call that one. I didn’t call t...

Conference Finals

Carolina at Philadelphia
Sunday 01/18 06:45 PM Eastern
4 units on Philadelphia -4 (-110)

Can I pick them both to lose? I am not hot on either of these teams. Carolina, behind the arm of Jake Delhomme, is peaking and playing very well. They deserve a lot of credit fo...

4 units on New England -3 (-110)

Peyton’s been 99% perfect two games in a row now. Against two teams that were good enough to make the playoffs, no less. Last game was even on the road. This guy’s o...

4 units on Kansas City -3 (-110)

4 units on Denver +3 (-110)

When the Broncos visited Indianapolis last two weeks ago, they had their way with the Colts in a 31-17 rout. Should we expect anything different this time? I don’t expect ...

Sunday 01/04 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Green Bay -7 (-110)

One of the worst road teams in the league travels east to face a team with one of the biggest playoff home-field advantages known to man. Yes, the Packers lost last year at home...

Who isn’t still amazed that Parcells was able to take a team that was 15-33 over the past three seasons and get them into the playoffs in his first year? Will his magic la...

Tennessee at Baltimore
Saturday 01/03 04:30 PM Eastern
4 units on Baltimore +1 (-110)

A running game and a defense and getting points at home in the playoffs. Ohhhh baby! Next to Dallas, Baltimore owns the best defense playing this weekend. The Ravens play well a...

4 units on Arizona +7.5 (-110)

Indianapolis at Houston
Sunday 12/28 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Houston +7 (-110)

The Texans keep improving. They would have upset the Titans as a touchdown underdog last week if it were not for Superman Steve McNair. The Texans play especially well at home. ...

St. Louis at Detroit
Sunday 12/28 01:00 PM Eastern

Philadelphia at Washington
Saturday 12/27 08:30 PM Eastern

Philadelphia reminds me a bit of Kansas City – lots of wins but not that great of a team. Both have their defensive problems which will limit their success in December and...

Green Bay at Las Vegas
Monday 12/22 09:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Las Vegas +4.5 (-110)

Baltimore at Cleveland
Sunday 12/21 01:00 PM Eastern

4 units on St. Louis -7 (-110)

Marshall, Marshall, Marshall. Mike Martz finally has a plan and it’s the right one. As long as he keeps feeding Faulk the ball, this offense is scary good and unstoppable ...

Miami at Buffalo
Sunday 12/21 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Buffalo -1.5 (-110)

New Orleans playing with confidence and needs the win. Jacksonville has nothing to play for.

Tennessee at Houston
Sunday 12/21 01:00 PM Eastern

Minnesota at Chicago
Sunday 12/14 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Chicago +3 (-110)

Kansas City at Denver
Sunday 12/07 04:15 PM Eastern
4 units on Denver -3 (-110)

New York at Buffalo
Sunday 12/07 04:15 PM Eastern
4 units on Buffalo -3 (-110)

Drew Bledsoe is listed as probable but I expect him to play. The Patriots have struggled on offense this year, putting up just 16 points per game. Luckily for them, their defens...

Arizona at San Francisco
Sunday 12/07 04:05 PM Eastern
4 units on Arizona +10 (-110)

San Francisco doesn’t have much to feel good about. Last week they suffered their worst loss since the 1999 season in a game that all-but-ensures their players will be wat...

Las Vegas at Pittsburgh

4 units on Las Vegas +5 (-110)

Tampa Bay at Jacksonville
Sunday 11/30 08:30 PM Eastern
4 units on Jacksonville +3 (-110)

Sunday 11/30 04:15 PM Eastern
4 units on Los Angeles +7 (-110)

San Diego showed it can put up some points against a poor rushing defense when it scored 42 against Minnesota three weeks ago. LaDainian Tomlinson is quietly putting up another ...

Atlanta at Houston
Sunday 11/30 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Atlanta +3 (-110)

Mike Vick vs. David Carr. Oh wait, I guess we’ll have to wait for that matchup. Instead, we’ll see the league’s two worst defenses face off. As I stated last w...

4 units on Dallas -3 (-110)

Trap game for Cincinnati. After a huge win last week they travel to San Diego who are coming off one of the worst defeats of any game this season. Don’t read too much into...

Tennessee at Atlanta
Sunday 11/23 04:15 PM Eastern
4 units on Atlanta +6.5 (-110)

All signs point to a Titans blowout but those are just the opportunities I love! Atlanta’s playing with some spunk. They beat the Giants two weeks ago as a 10.5 point unde...

4 units on Arizona +7.5 (-110)

4 units on Buffalo +2.5 (-110)

Last week Buffalo hit a new low-point of the season, falling at home to the Texans, with their backup QB, as a 7 point favorite. It was their third-straight loss and a humiliati...

Sunday 11/23 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Jacksonville +4 (-110)

This matchup is the only game of the week with no real playoff implications. Both teams are struggling but Jacksonville is actually playing with some hope. I am not a big fan of...

Sunday 11/23 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Houston +5.5 (-110)

We all know Houston can pull off the shocker. This year they beat Miami as a 14 point underdog, Jacksonville as a 3 point dog, Carolina as a 6.5 point dog and, last week, Buffal...

Week 11

Green Bay at Tampa Bay
Sunday 11/16 04:15 PM Eastern
4 units on Green Bay +4 (-110)

Minnesota at Las Vegas
Sunday 11/16 04:15 PM Eastern
4 units on Las Vegas +4.5 (-110)

Sunday 11/16 04:05 PM Eastern
4 units on New York +6 (-110)

Let’s see. I’m 3-6. I just lost my starting running back for four weeks due to a substance abuse suspension. I think I’ll cut my leading receiver for this year...

4 units on New Orleans -8.5 (-110)

Those of you who’ve been with me for a while know I don’t usually pick big favorites. However, I smell blowout in this game. New Orleans is a tale of two teams this ...

Jacksonville at Tennessee
Sunday 11/16 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Tennessee -10 (-110)

Don’t overreact to Jacksonville’s upset victory last week. They were in a good spot against a Colts team that was in a letdown situation. The Jags are 0-4 on the roa...

Kansas City at Cincinnati
Sunday 11/16 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Cincinnati +6 (-110)

Last week Simeon Rice guaranteed a Tampa Bay victory over Carolina and walked off the field a loser. This week Cincinnati receiver Chad Johnson has guaranteed a win over the 9-0...

St. Louis at Chicago
Sunday 11/16 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Chicago +6 (-110)

Here we’re faced with yet another game that looks like a blowout. One of the league’s top offenses faces a team that has struggled all season long. Chicago doesn&rsq...

Washington at Carolina
Sunday 11/16 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Carolina -6 (-110)

What a big win for Washington last week. Ooooh. Sense a bit of sarcasm? I’m not sold. For some crazy reason Seattle chose NOT to blitz the Redskins last week and it cost t...

4 units on Philadelphia +4.5 (-110)

Two teams that have found some momentum tangle on Monday night. Last week Green Bay played way over their heads in what was their most important game of the year. It was a must-...

Minnesota at Los Angeles
Sunday 11/09 04:05 PM Eastern
4 units on Los Angeles +5.5 (-110)

4 units on Arizona +7.5 (-110)

Here we have a 2-6 Steelers team that has lost their last five straight by an average score of 15 to 27 versus a confident Arizona club on a roll. Yet, Pitt is favored by over a...

Indianapolis at Jacksonville
Sunday 11/09 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Jacksonville +6 (-110)

7-1 against 1-7. Should be a blowout, right? While it’s hard to put my finger (paw) on why, I have a feeling it won’t be. Indianapolis really couldn’t be playi...

Seattle at Washington
Sunday 11/09 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Seattle -3 (-110)

Last week I picked the Lions to upset the Raiders largely because Oakland was in the midst of major turmoil. The team was losing and losing bad. And worse yet, the players had l...

Green Bay at Minnesota
Sunday 11/02 08:30 PM Eastern
4 units on Green Bay +4.5 (-110)

This is a must-win game for a hungry Green Bay team that can’t afford to lose its third straight. Even though Favre has had a rough go in domes, I think he’ll shine ...

Cincinnati at Arizona
Sunday 11/02 04:05 PM Eastern
4 units on Arizona +3 (-110)

Can the Bengals come into Arizona and win their third straight game for the first time in four years? Don’t jump on that bandwagon just yet. The glass slipper isn’t ...

Pittsburgh at Seattle
Sunday 11/02 04:05 PM Eastern
4 units on Seattle -4.5 (-110)

Las Vegas at Detroit
Sunday 11/02 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Detroit +3 (-110)

Things are downright ugly in Oakland. The Raiders are off to their worst start since 1964. Head coach Bill Callahan seems to have lost faith in his team and the faith of his tea...

New Orleans at Tampa Bay
Sunday 11/02 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Tampa Bay -8 (-110)

Which defense will show up for Tampa Bay? The one that was torched by Indianapolis and San Francisco or the one that shut out Philadelphia and Dallas? I’m thinking the lat...

Sunday 11/02 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on New York +2.5 (-110)

The Jets lost a game they should have arguably won last week while the G-Men pulled of a big shocker in Minnesota. Kerry Collins finally had a great game but for most of the yea...

Week 8

New York at Philadelphia
Sunday 10/26 04:15 PM Eastern
4 units on New York +3 (-110)

Philadelphia is in trouble but some folks out there are not ready to admit it yet. Heck, they’ve won two of their last three to pull to .500. However, I see a team that ha...

San Francisco at Arizona
Sunday 10/26 04:05 PM Eastern
4 units on Arizona +6.5 (-110)

I took San Fran to upset the World Champs last week and they did so easily. But, this is a different week. This week they are laying nearly a TD on the road against a poor team....

Cleveland at New England
Sunday 10/26 01:00 PM Eastern

New York at Minnesota
Sunday 10/26 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Minnesota -5.5 (-110)

4 units on Cincinnati +2 (-110)

Cincinnati is playing with a spring in their step. Why shouldn’t they? They’ve won two of their last three and have already matched their win total for last year. Th...

Monday 10/20 09:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Las Vegas +3.5 (-110)

Sunday 10/19 04:15 PM Eastern
4 units on San Francisco +3.5 (-110)

Five points. That’s the difference between a 5-1 record and the record San Francisco actually owns: 2-4. San Francisco has lost two games by one point and another by three...

Sunday 10/19 04:15 PM Eastern
4 units on Washington +3 (-110)

Jamal Lewis. Jamal Lewis. Did I mention Jamal Lewis? Look out Eric Dickerson – Jamal is on pace to shatter the all-time single-season rushing record. Cincinnati’s ru...

Denver at Minnesota
Sunday 10/19 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Denver +3.5 (-110)

Sunday 10/19 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on St. Louis -3.5 (-110)

St. Louis may just be back. In their last two games, the Rams have outscored their opponents 73-13. This weekend’s game will go a long way towards confirming that they are...

4 units on Atlanta +1.5 (-110)

Sunday 10/12 08:30 PM Eastern
4 units on San Francisco +3.5 (-110)

Baltimore at Arizona
Sunday 10/12 04:15 PM Eastern
4 units on Arizona +5.5 (-110)

Baltimore can run but they can’t pass. They are first in rushing offense and dead last in heaving the pigskin. Luckily for the Cardinals, they know what’s coming and...

Buffalo at New York
Sunday 10/12 04:15 PM Eastern
4 units on New York +2.5 (-110)

Winless teams off a bye – gotta love ‘em! New York qualifies for several very high-percentage trends favoring dogs post-bye and a few other variables. After a week o...

Pittsburgh at Denver
Sunday 10/12 04:15 PM Eastern
4 units on Denver -6.5 (-110)

Tough loss for Denver last week. How will they respond? Unlike Tampa Bay (who knows their loss is on them and will drag them down this week), Denver believes they should have wo...

4 units on New York +2.5 (-110)

Boy, the Giants looked bad last week, didn’t they. Yes they did! However, they are a much better team than the one that showed up against Miami. In that game, they committ...

Philadelphia at Dallas
Sunday 10/12 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Dallas -1.5 (-110)

This line has moved from a pick’em to Dallas being favored by 1.5. The way Dallas has been playing, they should be favored by a field goal or more. This is a huge game for...

Tampa Bay at Washington
Sunday 10/12 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Washington +3 (-110)

Amazingly tough loss for Tampa and they won’t recover so quickly. After a short week in which they have got to be questioning themselves, they need to go on the road to fa...

4 units on Los Angeles +3 (-110)

Two winless teams square off so who cares? Well, players and coaches of these two teams, for one. And, we care since we have an underdog winner here. Everyone wants to praise th...

New Orleans at Carolina
Sunday 10/05 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Carolina -6.5 (-110)

I remember the first matchup between these two teams last year well (I picked Carolina). The Panthers were up 24-20 with less than 1:00 minute to go as +4.5 point underdog. New ...

Week 4

Indianapolis at New Orleans
Sunday 09/28 08:30 PM Eastern
4 units on Indianapolis -1.5 (-110)

Apparently last year’s playoff trouncing hasn’t stuck in the heads of the Colts. They are off to their best start in years. Edgerrin James may not play Sunday due to...

Atlanta at Carolina
Sunday 09/28 04:15 PM Eastern
4 units on Atlanta +6 (-110)

We’re getting value with this line. Carolina certainly had a big win against Tampa Bay a couple of weeks ago. But, their offense has been mediocre and this Falcons team sc...

4 units on Kansas City -3 (-110)

Sunday 09/28 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Cleveland -4.5 (-110)

Think Tim Couch is ready to play? Think he’ll do everything in his power to play the best game of his life? You bet. After an 0-2 start, Cleveland has confidence again aft...

Jacksonville at Houston
Sunday 09/28 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Houston +3 (-110)

Jacksonville starting QB Mark Brunell is hurting. If he can’t go, it will be the rookie Byron Leftwich. It’ hard enough for a rookie, but Leftwich started camp late....

Philadelphia at Buffalo
Sunday 09/28 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Buffalo -3 (-110)

Drew Bledsoe had a bad game last week. I don’t expect that to happen again. Buffalo has a lot to play for in an effort to keep up with the Joneses (Miami and New England) ...

Las Vegas at Denver
Monday 09/22 09:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Las Vegas +5.5 (-110)

Are you ready for some Monday Night Football?? Everything seems to be going Denver’s way and not much is going Oakland’s way. Denver fans and media are watering at t...

Buffalo at Miami
Sunday 09/21 08:30 PM Eastern
4 units on Buffalo +3 (-110)

This Bills squad is excellent. Drew Bledsoe is one of the best QBs in the league and because of him, the Bills are averaging 34.5 ppg. He not only puts up the numbers, but he fi...

St. Louis at Seattle
Sunday 09/21 04:05 PM Eastern
4 units on Seattle -3 (-110)

The Hawks are hot. Mike Holmgren knows that it’s win-or-lose-his-job-time and he’s got his team playing accordingly. Defensive coordinator Ray Rhodes has done a trem...

Minnesota at Detroit
Sunday 09/21 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Minnesota -3.5 (-110)

Over the past dozen years in week 3, visiting teams off a win have covered the spread 75% of the time when playing home teams off a loss. Minnesota is dominating opponents so fa...

Week 2

Chicago at Minnesota
Sunday 09/14 08:30 PM Eastern
4 units on Chicago +8 (-110)

Contrarian play. Chicago gets hammered 49-7 last week while Minnesota pulls of the big upset in Lambeau. It seems like Minnesota will walk in this one. However, Minnesota played...

Cleveland at Baltimore
Sunday 09/14 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Cleveland +2.5 (-110)

Baltimore can’t be feeling too good right now. For a team who’s strong point is defense, giving up 34 in your opener has got to raise doubts in your mind. Granted, C...

Detroit at Green Bay
Sunday 09/14 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Detroit +6.5 (-110)

One of these two teams gave up 30 points last game and lost as a five point favorite. The other team scored 42 points and won. Which one do you think should be favored this week...

San Francisco at St. Louis
Sunday 09/14 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on San Francisco +3 (-110)

Talk about screwy lines! San Francisco is a playoff team that won by 42 points last game. St. Louis kind of... well... sucks. The public can’t seem to understand this. Thi...

Cincinnati at Las Vegas
Sunday 09/14 12:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Cincinnati +12.5 (-110)

We’re getting lots o’ points in this one. Everyone’s writing off Cinci after confirmation (in their minds) last week that Cincinnati is still hapless. I have t...

Week 1

Atlanta at Dallas
Sunday 09/07 04:15 PM Eastern
4 units on Atlanta +2 (-110)

This one’s a bit tough. Atlanta was a playoff team last year while Dallas sucked. Things have changed a bit, which explains why Atlanta is getting points in this one. Mike...

Arizona at Detroit
Sunday 09/07 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Arizona +4 (-110)

Arizona lost Jake Plummer and picked up Emmitt Smith. How can this be bad? Plummer is a horrendously average quarterback that makes more mistakes than any professional should (a...

Houston at Miami
Sunday 09/07 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Houston +14 (-110)

Fourteen points? That’s a lot but it almost seems reasonable. Houston is coming off a winless preseason. They were (mostly) horrible last year. They are on the road agains...

Jacksonville at Carolina
Sunday 09/07 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Jacksonville +3.5 (-110)

Jacksonville has had some turmoil in the preseason. Everyone’s writing off Mark Brunell for dead (OVERREACTION). Think he cares? He’s a football player – off c...

Preseason

San Francisco at Los Angeles
Friday 08/29 10:00 PM Eastern
4 units on San Francisco +1.5 (-110)

San Francisco's on a role this preaseason (3-0 SU and ATS) and I don't expect it to stop. Maybe they're trying to atone for last year's playoff disappointment. Maybe Dennis Eric...

Atlanta at Cleveland
Thursday 08/28 08:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Cleveland -3.5 (-110)

Vick's out. Atlanta's 0-3 SU and ATS. Cleveland has given up over 28 points per game in their first three. They have allowed 38 points in each of their last two and they were be...

New York at Baltimore
Thursday 08/28 08:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Baltimore -4.5 (-110)

It's nice when the team you are going against announces they won't play their starting QB - at all. NY will sit Kerry Collins and start unimpressive Jessie Palmer and relieve hi...

Washington at Jacksonville
Thursday 08/28 08:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Washington +3 (-110)

After two dismal games, the Skins bounced back last week with a big win against Baltimore, led by Patrick Ramsey's good showing. Low-scoring road dogs tend to do well in subsequ...

Arizona at Minnesota
Thursday 08/28 01:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Arizona +6 (-110)

Two teams with different attitudes this game. Minnesota won as a dog last week. They're feeling pretty good. After two straight wins, Arizona lost as a favorite. They aren't hap...

Carolina at Green Bay
Saturday 08/23 08:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Carolina +4 (-110)

Carolina's defense is just scary-good. Yes, this is the preseason but defensive starters usually play longer than offensive starters. Carolina has won and covered its first two ...

Baltimore at Atlanta
Saturday 08/16 08:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Baltimore +4.5 (-110)

Atlanta working out the kinks. Head coach Dan Reeves, referring to a mid-week practice, said this week, "It was probably our worst offensive practice so far...I wasn't pleased."...

Green Bay at Atlanta
Saturday 08/09 08:00 PM Eastern
4 units on Green Bay +3.5 (-110)

Green Bay 3rd string QB Craig Nall had a bad showing Monday night (pitched the shutout). Offensive coordinator Tom Rossley has already indicated that we will see more of Akili S...
