2011 NFL Week 3 Picks and Podcast

No Comments on 2011 NFL Week 3 Picks and Podcast

If you want to pick winners, just pick the favorite. Last week, only 3 dogs pulled off the upset and the only real upset was Tennessee over Baltimore. If you want to pick Against the Spread, then flip a coin. The favorites went 9-7 last week ATS. What does this mean for week 3? Probably nothing.

The featured games this week are Texans @ Saints, Falcons @ Bucs, and Packers @ Bears.

2 Comments on 2011 NFL Week 2 Picks and Podcast

After a wild start to the NFL season, we’re back with week 2 picks. A little more information this week to base picks on but don’t get too carried away with surprise teams from last week. Good teams always bounce back and bad teams always come back down to earth. (Are we taking about the Bills or the Raiders?)

This week’s featured games are Oakland @ Buffalo, Chicago @ New Orleans, San Diego @ New England, and Philly @ Atlanta.

2011 Week 1 NFL Picks

It’s football season! Every season, I give the excuse that week 1 is the hardest week to pick. But looking at the results from last season might give us some insight into what will happen this week. In the first week of 2010, 12 home teams won as well as 10 favorites. In a straight up pick, when in doubt, go with the home favorite.

As far as against the spread goes, think about picking dogs as Vegas/bettors often rate the favorites a little too high. Last year, 8 dogs won vs only 6 favorites, with only 2 backdoor covers.

The featured games this week are Saints @ Packers, Lions @ Bucs, Steelers @ Ravens, and Cowboys @ Jets.

By the way, for those of you on the “NY teams will win because of 9/11” bandwagon, Ryan wanted to remind you that it’s 9/11 for everyone.
