NFL Picks Week Four: San Francisco 49ers at St. Louis Rams, Thursday Night Football

NFL Picks and Predictions, Week Four: San Francisco 49ers at St. Louis Rams – Thursday Night Football

There are two trends, three really if you consider the downward spiral of the 49ers to be a trend, that make me very nervous about this game. First, Thursday Night Football always favors the home team. Since its inception into the NFL, the lack of prep time and the travel considerations of a shorter week always favor the home team. Second, the Rams beat the Niners last year in two tight, divisional rivalry games.

First, I don’t think the Rams’ wins last year  ...

Very exciting start! Small upsets and bright victories! Just like in major leagues! We had a lot of great, tight battles, many games was decided in last day by last pick!

The Spot 21 : 29 Mustangs

The Spot faced against best team in week 1. Both sides showed great performance and went 3:1. Mustangs just choose amazing odds and got 8 points more. Details decided here, maybe home field advantage ? No doubts both teams are very very strong, be aware!  ... 

NFL Picks Week Three: Chicago Bears at Pittsburgh Steelers, Sunday Night Football

NFL Picks and Predictions Week Three: Sunday Night Football – Chicago Bears at Pittsburgh Steelers

This is one of many interesting trap games this week. The line seems to lend a ton of value to the Chicago Bears, and while I and the rest of the community are on them with some degree of confidence, let me explain why there’s some risk involved in this pick.

First of all, the Chicago Bears line is an abomination. Jay Cutler is on his back more than Jenna Jameson in her prime – before all those plastic surgery operations messed up her face.

MLB Picks and Predictions 9/21: LA Dodgers at San Diego Padres

MLB Picks and Predictions: LA Dodgers at San Diego Padres

Clayton Kershaw is one of the greatest pitchers in baseball. In a pitcher’s park, he likely is in for a great game. Still, the Dodgers are cold and Z-Code finds value on the home dogs here.

I respectfully disagree and am low confidence on the Dodgers. While they’re cold, there’s a ton of value on Kershaw here. I also think against Burch Smith, the Dodgers bats are due to wake up.

With Kershaw struggling over his last three starts and Burch Smith being Burch Smith, Z-code and I are in agreement  ... 

NFL Picks 9/19: Thursday Night Football – Kansas City Chiefs at Philadelphia Eagles

NFL Picks and Predictions: Thursday Night Football – Kansas City Chiefs at Philadelphia Eagles

In a game with almost no Z-Code signal, I thought it would be fun to bring back one of my favorite forms of analysis – the bullet point organization of a tricky game. Unfortunately, I still can’t come to a decision. Let’s check out why:

1. Thursday Night Football always favors the home team. With less time to prepare, road teams historically have some serious difficulty adjusting to the short week with travel. Beware road teams on Thursdays! It’s a DEFINITE trend.

2. Both the Philadelphia  ...

MLB Picks 9/18: Desperate New York Yankees at Toronto Blue Jays

MLB Picks and Predictions 9/18: New York Yankees at Toronto Blue Jays

The Yankees have owned the Jays this year, but they’re mired in a year-end slump that could end their push for the playoffs.

It’s been a horrible season for the Yankees. Injuries took away New York’s chances early on, but they battled through. Just when they looked like they were turning a corner in a tight wild card race, injuries seem to have hit them too hard once more.

When you look at this Yankees lineup, it’s just not the same team we thought they were. Then again,  ... 

MLB Picks 9/16: Free Cash Contest – Texas Rangers at Tampa Bay Rays

MLB Picks and Predictions: September 16th – Featured $100 Contest Game – Texas Rangers at Tampa Bay Rays

This is a rare opportunity to showcase two slumbering teams that are equally futile at the moment, but also the two teams tied for the wild card at the moment. The Rangers have lost ten of eleven, the Rays have sunk to within a few games of missing the playoffs. This is a battle – but not the type you’d expect from the current wild card placeholders.

With at least three teams nipping at their heels, this series could mean everything to  ...
