NFL Football Picks

The Detroit Lions and San Francisco 49ers meet up Sunday for the NFC Conference Championship, in which the winner moves on the play in the Super Bowl against the winner of KC/Baltimore. Oddsmakers have the Niners as -7 home favorites. Can the Lions overcome “Road Goff?” Can Brock Purdy’s small hands deliver the football accurately in potentially rainy weather? Can San Fran be as effective with Deebo Samuel potentially out? Get Loot’s Det/SF prediction here!

We should be in for a real doozy Sunday night when the Kansas City Chiefs roll into Highmark Stadium Sunday night as short -2.5 road underdogs for a battle with the Buffalo Bills. It’s tough to think about this matchup without reflecting on one of the best NFL games in the past decade in January of 2022. It should be noted that Buffalo has beaten Kansas City twice in a row since then. Who covers the spread in this AFC Divisional game? Get Loot’s KC/Buf pick here!

Division games in the NFL generally tend to play tight, however, the Chicago Bears offense has looked anemic early on. They can’t stop the run and the Minnesota Vikings will surely look to exploit that variable. Get Loot’s Chi/Min Week 6 pick here!

The more we get to see of Matt Rhule, the more he looks like he belongs in a circus rather than on a football field. And Baker Mayfield is the side show! Get Jay’s SF/Car Week 5 free NFL pick here!

With the Seattle Seahawks playing well against the Lions and the Saints coming back from overseas we may just have the perfect storm for Seattle to cover the spread (or win) a game they wouldn’t normally cash in on. Get Loot’s Week 5 Sea/N.O. pick here!

Can “Teddy Two-Gloves” take over the reigns and lead the Miami Dolphins to victory in Week 5? Oddsmakers have the Phins set as -3.5 road favorites against the Jets who should gain momentum each week with Zach Wilson back behind center. Get Loot’s Mia/NYJ pick here!

At first glance, it looks like the Falcons at +8.5 on the road against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is a bad bet. Jay thinks otherwise! Get his Atl/TB prediction here!

In all candidness, the Week 5 game between the Houston Texans and Jacksonville Jaguars is one you shouldn’t bet. There are too many question marks with both of these teams at this point in the season. Our office is split on the contest as well! Get Loot’s Hou/Jax pick here!

Oddsmakers have set the Week 5 game between the Tennessee Titans and Washington Commanders at Ten -2.5. This tells us they think that Washington covers this game. We think otherwise, as Washington’s defense is porous at best and we don’t think the Washington defense can stop the Big Dog who is primed to eat! Get Loot’s Ten/Wash pick here!

Bug meets windshield in Week 5 when the Pittsburgh Steelers and their fledgling offense head to Highmark Stadium to take on the high-flying Buffalo Bills on Sunday. The books have made the Bills huge -14 favorites and the general betting public is biting to the tune of 57% which has led to some sportsbooks moving the betting line up a half point to -14.5.
