Who is ready to make some money with my best bets? Summer is over and the grind of the NFL season is here! We are seeing some teams separate themselves from the pack, but this year continues to be unpredictable. We live in a world where the Giants and Jets both have a better record than the defending Super Bowl Champion Rams! This is what makes the NFL so great. Nobody can truly predict what will happen week to week. I’m here to try to prove that theory wrong and give you my 3 best bets for Week 6 so…

He has been in the NFL for a little over 4 season now and it hasn’t been pretty for Baker Mayfield. To be honest, I have no idea how he is still a starting QB in this league! He has rarely even shown flashes of why he was chosen as the #1 overall pick in the draft.  Let’s dive inside the numbers and see what’s wrong with Baker Mayfield. The Struggles of Baker Mayfield It’s painful to watch him play sometimes, and it’s obvious that the struggles of Baker Mayfield are real. Baker is 30-34 as a starting QB in…

What’s better than putting a label on a team only 5 weeks into the season? The answer is nothing. It’s time to talk Contender or Pretender with a few teams that have either over or under performed 5 games into the season. The Eagles and Bills seem to be the only elite teams so far, but that can change week to week in the crazy world of the NFL. For the sake of this argument, we will base it off whether or not these teams can make the playoffs. Here we go! New York Jets The Jets sit at 3-2…

We all need something to keep us busy until the next week starts, why not read a Top 10 Power Rankings List for Week 3? I’m pretty sure I nailed it this week and there is no way anyone would argue with this, right? As you can see, these rankings are not just made based on record since there are four 2-1 teams that didn’t make this list. I know the anticipation is killing you so leet’s get started! 10) Minnesota Vikings This was a tough choice for the 10th spot since all of the teams that could be here…

Raise your hand if you had the Giants as one of six teams to start out 2-0 this season? Believe it or not, this is the reality right now. Daboll has turned this team around and has it believing in each other. They are doing it with defense as they have only allowed 36 points thru 2 games. It helps to have Saquon Barkley back and healthy, but is this a legitimate playoff contender, or are there still reasons for concern? Offense This offense relies on a physical running game and timely passing. So far they have gotten just enough…

What a Monday Night it was for the Eagles! They took control of that game from the beginning and never looked back. They absolutely dominated the Vikings in every phase. It is their 1st 2-0 start since 2004 and below I will tell you why I think the Eagles are the best team in the NFC, and have a real chance at getting to the Super Bowl this season! Offense This team is a well oiled machine scoring 62 points in the 1st 2 games. I actually think it could be more, but they took their foot off the gas…

Week 2 is here! I missed out on a good week last weekend with my bets going 1-2 (-1.55 Units). The big loss was Ekeler not finding the end zone. Brandon Staley decided to call 3 play action passes from the 1 yard line! Oh well, we move on to this week and I am very confident in these bets. The early part of the year is tougher as we get a feel for these teams this season. We will get on a roll and it starts this weekend! Let’s dive into the best bets for Week 2 of the…

Have you ever had one of those days where you just wanted it to be over so you could start fresh the next day? Well, thats pretty much how the NFC West feels after Week 1. It was saved a little bit by the crazy Monday night win by the Seahawks, but the other 3 teams all lost and they were all by multiple scores! Yes, I know it’s only 1 week and there is a long ways to go. Below is a recap on each team while I try to predict how this division will shake out this season.…

Week 1 is in the books! I dont know about you, but having NFL Sundays back just feels so right. I cant imagine my life without them.  There were crazy games all over the place including 2 Overtime games and one tie. Somehow, the Bears were able to pull out a win vs the 49ers, while the Steelers won an absolutely chaotic game vs the Bengals. There were also some big injuries to players like Dak, TJ Watt, Elijah Mitchell, Keenan Allen, and more. Ok, enough about Week 1…. let’s start looking ahead to Week 2, and there are three…

Oh, those poor Cowboys fans! Week 1 could not have gone any worse for America’s team. Their offense was stuck in the mud and they were never able to recover. I know it’s only week 1, tut this may be hard to overcome considering Dak may be out for 1-2 months with a thumb injury. There were issues all around with the offense and I believe it started with the offensive line. Read on to find out if it’s time to panic or not in the big D! Reasons for Panic First of all, Dak is out for quite a…
