NFL Football Picks

The Week 7 NFL matchup between the Washington Commanders and New York Giants is one that features two teams that were expected to be decent this year, but haven’t been. With a point spread of 1.5, this tells us the books think that the Giants are going to get the win. There’s too much instability here on both sides to feel good about placing a bet on either team. We do like the total though! Get Jay’s Wash/NYG over/under pick here!

Kevin West breaks down the high scoring matchup and looks at some very interesting betting angles: “When I think NFL playoffs, I think New England Patriots. How can you not? They’ve been a mainstay in post-season play for as long as I can remember. Also in that picture in my mind, is Foxboro. The Pats seemingly always have home field advantage, don’t they? So leaves one to wonder how Belichick, Brady and Co. have fared away from home. The answer is somewhat shocking. They’re 3-4 both straight up and against the spread.” Does that make you think twice about backing the Pats? West gives his pick.

No one will confuse either the LA or New Orleans defenses as being great, but they have been better as of late. The Rams’ defense underachieved for the most part this season, as the big-name collection of talent never quite clicked. But this is where they make their money. This is what counts. Sportsbooks opened the Rams at -3.5. How big does the defense need to be for the Rams to cover?

These are two of the highest scoring teams in the NFL. For what the weatherman is worth, it’s going to be frigid in Kansas City, but it shouldn’t be wet. Kansas City thrived in the snow. The Patriots mutilated the Chargers in freezing cold weather. LL looks at how that impacts the scoring and total bets.

The key to the Saints offense will be the battle at the line of scrimmage. The Saints bring in the league’s 6th best rushing attack and the Rams defense allowed the league’ most yards per rushing attempt. In week 9 Alvin Kamara rushed for 82 yards and 2 touchdowns and Mark Ingram pitched in 33 yards. The Rams allowed over 100 rushing yards in each of the last 5 regular season games before selling out to stop the run last week against the Cowboys. Does this matchup on the ground mean you should bet on the Saints? See Keith Allen’s breakdown and pick.

See Mike’s pick!

While the Cowboys will be trying to end their NFC Divisional drought, the Rams will be trying to overcome a similar historical hurdle. Los Angeles is making just their 4th postseason appearance since 2001 when they lost to the New England Patriots.
