All eyes will be on the 2020 New England Patriots as they create their new identity post-Tom Brady. Bill Belichick is still a wizard. Can he work his magic to make Cam Newton an effective player in his offense? Check out Mike’s analysis and pick ATS here!
Our Week 2 college football bets continue with the Duke Blue Devils vs. Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Duke hasn’t fared well vs. top tear competition as of late, going 0-5 straight up (and ATS) versus ranked opponents and they lost those games by an average margin of 29 points. It’s tough to fire a bet against a ND team that has won 24 straight games vs. unranked teams and that has won 32 games in a row when scoring 20 points or more. Mike will be covering the Fighting Irish all season long. Bookmark this page and get his take every week!
Watching the New England Patriots play this season with Bill Belichick and without Tom Brady will be odd to say the least! In this article, Mike breaks down the team’s 2020 outlook and gives his prediction on whether they’ll go over or under their season wins total of 9.
With the sparse amount of wagering options on tap, April 23rd’s NFL Draft provides us with the ability to scratch our itch. Professional Handicapper Mike Mann gives Predictem readers thirteen NFL Draft prop bets from Bovada Sportsbook.
The NFL’s regular season closes out with a one-sided matchup between the Miami Dolphins and New England Patriots where the Pats need a win to secure a first round bye in the NFL playoffs. The Patriots have absolutely dominated the Phins at Gillette Stadium, winning the last 10 games by an average of 19+ points. This week’s spread is -15.5 and we’re actually considering laying it!
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish come into the Camping World Bowl as slight -3.5 favorites vs. the Iowa State Cyclones. If you’re a fan of trends, you’ll likely be wagering on ND as Iowa State defense that ranks nationally 66th against the pass, 52nd and six of the Cyclones seven wins came against FCS Northern Iowa, 5-7 UL Monroe and the bottom four teams in the Big 12. ISU is just 5-25 in their last 30 games against ranked teams. It’s hard to fade numbers like those!
In a matchup with major divisional playoff implications, the 11-3 New England Patriots host the 10-4 Buffalo Bills for a Saturday afternoon showdown at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro. The Patriots have dominated the series since 2001, going 33-3 in their last 36 meetings including a 16-2 mark at home.
Week 15 will show us what the Patriots are made of. After back to back losses and the end of their home winning streak, they get a creampuff road matchup vs. the Cincinnati Bengals, or is it? Bill Belichick is known for taking away the opponents best weapon. Cincinnati really only has one, so in theory, the Pats should be able to bang out a win here.
The Patriots look human! They pretty much got destroyed last week by the Titans. The final score wasn’t even close to indicative as the first 50 minutes of the game. Is Tom Brady turning grandpa right in front of our eyes? Is it possible that they lose two in a row and on their own turf? Hell yes!
This Week 13 point spread is a real head scratcher. The oddsmakers are way off on the Pats/Texans line and it’s as close to a lock as any game we’ve seen this season. The Texans love to chuck it and the Patriots have one of the most ridiculously talented secondaries we’e seen since Ed Reed and the Baltimore Ravens. The Texans run game is ineffective as well. Jump on this one quick before we see line movement that sucks out the value!
