It’s a bit surprising to see the UAB/South Alabama spread at only 7 after last year’s blowout. This raises eyebrows to say the least. Get Loot’s preview and pick for this Conference USA vs. Sun Belt matchup!

TNF Best Bet: Cincinnati Bengals at Cleveland Browns
Week 2 Thursday Night Football is upon us and we’re blessed (who scheduled this one?) with the battle of Ohio when the Cincinnati Bengals travel to Cleveland to take on the Browns. Both teams come in winless after Baker Mayfield and Co. got smoked by the Ravens and the Bengals had a decent home field showing vs. the Chargers. Get Loot’s take on this battle here!
Week 2 Picks: Jaguars vs. Titans
The Tennessee Titans head back to Nissan Stadium for their home season opener against a Jacksonville Jaguars team that surprised the world by knocking out the Indianapolis Colts last week. With a team only being as good as their last couple games, the Jaguars getting zero respect, this being an in-conference game and a two score spread (+9), we may be in for another barn-burner! Get Loot’s Jax/Ten point spread winner here!
Denver Broncos vs. Pittsburgh Steelers Spread Pick
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!
Kansas City Chiefs vs. Los Angeles Chargers Pick ATS
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!
Minnesota Vikings vs. Indianapolis Colts Spread Pick
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!
San Francisco 49ers vs. New York Jets
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!
Free Picks: Houston Cougars vs. Baylor Bears
Week 3 provides us with a skinny college football betting card as many of the big schools are off this weekend. While not a dream matchup, the Houston Cougars vs. Baylor Bears game should be one of the more competitive Saturday matchups. Get Loot’s prediction to cover the spread here!
Tennessee Titans vs. Denver Broncos Pick 12/14/20
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.
MNF Picks: Pittsburgh Steelers vs. New York Giants
Big Ben returns to the field after an injury riddled season. Daniel Jones starts the season after getting some experience under his belt as a rookie. There are lots of question marks regarding this contest, especially with no preseason to assess. Some games are tougher to handicap than others. This is one of them! Nonetheless, Loot gives you his best forecast of how he thinks the Pit/NYG will play out ATS.
