NHL Picks: Nashville Predators at Chicago Blackhawks

NHL Picks: Nashville Predators at Chicago Blackhawks The Nashville Predators have been really slumping lately. They are a great team on paper, but they’re stumbling badly of late and slipping in the playoff standings, tied for 5th in the Central.

Betting against the Nashville Predators is always difficult for me. As a New Jersey Devils fan, the defense-first approach is one I’ve grown up with and love. It’s hard for me to watch this mediocre offense stumble so badly that it hurts the consistency of the defense. Right now, the Preds are a huge liability despite their decent record on  ... 

NFL Playoffs Picks: Green Bay Packers at Washington Redskins

NFL Playoffs Picks: Green Bay Packers at Washington Redskins Well, after Adam Jones (Pacman Jones) and the Cincinnati Bengals imploded while an injured Ben Roethlisberger played hero again last night for the Pittsburgh Steelers, we opened the NFL Playoffs 2-0. Sure, we had the spread covered either way, but isn’t it nice to protect a perfect bracket? The NFC is a little trickier, but we’re sticking with our prediction of all four road teams winning and I’ve got the Green Bay Packers over the Washington Redskins as well as the Seattle Seahawks over the Minnesota Vikings.

The Green Bay Packers  ... 

2016 NFL Playoff Predictions: NFC Picks – Cardinals, Seahawks, Panthers

2016 NFC Playoff Predictions: Seahawks, Panthers, Cardinals The NFC is a little tricky because the bottom seed in the playoff picture is the defending NFC champion that probably should have won the Super Bowl last year. The Seattle Seahawks are surging, the Carolina Panthers nearly went unbeaten, the Arizona Cardinals are having a phenomenal season, and even Aaron Rodgers’ Green Bay Packers are a tough team to count out. Those Packers just got thumped by the three-seed Minnesota Vikings. The only team I feel comfortable counting out is the Washington Redskins, but in a league where the sixth-seeded Seattle Seahawks can blow away the number two Arizona Cardinals to end the season, nothing is certain.

NFC Wild Card Round

Seattle Seahawks at Minnesota Vikings

This isn’t a knock on the Minnesota Vikings, but I’m taking the Seahawks to win on the road. I don’t trust Seattle on the road and think they will run out of gas, but I think  ... 

CASH CHAMPIONSHIP – NFL KING 2015 [Live!] – PLAYOFF RECAP 2

PLAYOFF ROUND 2 RECAP

This is playoff! Some say it is almost unjust that some players going through and others with better result are going out, but is there anything more exciting on sports arenas than DRAMA!? Our playoffs are full of drama and except great picks players need some tactical planning and of course some luck too. Enjoy!

Second stage brought us many surprises and few favorites went out. By favorites I mean players with higher rank in the main contest. Check below head to head results. Stage 3 with 8 players  ... 

NFL Playoffs Predictions: AFC Bracket Picks – Broncos Patriots

NFL Picks: 2016 AFC Playoff Predictions – Chiefs, Patriots, Broncos, Steelers The AFC playoff bracket appears on its face to offer the more difficult matchups to predict. In the Wild Card Round, both road teams are surging. The Kansas City Chiefs are the hottest team in football, while the Houston Texans barely squeaked into the playoffs. The Pittsburgh Steelers have a high-powered offense that surprisingly found enough success to cancel out a horrible defense, making them one of the most volatile teams around. Meanwhile, the three favorites all have injury issues, with the Cincinnati Bengals losing Andy Dalton to a  ... 

NFL Picks: Jacksonville Jaguars at Houston Texans

NFL Picks: Jacksonville Jaguars at Houston Texans The Jacksonville Jaguars are building towards something. T.J. Yeldon might be the running back of the future, they have two stud receivers, a great tight end, and Blake Bortles had a solid season in his second year. The skill positions in Jacksonville finally have some recognizable names, but the defense has a lot of holes and I don’t trust either line.

That’s a big problem for a young team going against the Houston Texans defense with a chance to clinch a playoff berth with a win. Sure, the Indianapolis Colts need a lot  ... 

CASH CHAMPIONSHIP – NFL KING 2015 [Live!] – PLAYOFF RECAP 1

First round of playoffs is behind us. We had some exciting duels however most contenders showed up with simplified tactic and attacked strong with 3 units pick. It has some advantages though, but gives a lot information to the opponent and some guys were countered despite their fantastic result.

Top contenders from the main contest proved again their skill and 8 of 10 proceeded to the next stage. Only 3 guys from places 16-32 were successful in the first round so we will have a lot matchups between best contenders from main contest  ... 

NFL Picks: Cincinnati Bengals at Denver Broncos, Monday Night Football

NFL Picks: Bengals Broncos – Monday Night Football It’s suddenly become very difficult to trust the Denver Broncos offensively. Brock Osweiler looked like a revelation for a couple games only to stumble down the stretch and the Denver Broncos could actually be in line to miss the playoffs with a loss at home against the Cincinnati Bengals. The running tandem of C.J. Anderson and Ronnie Hillman has struggled all year behind a porous offensive line and the dynamic receivers are disappearing. You just can’t trust this offense.

But honestly, can you trust the Cincinnati Bengals offense against this vaunted Denver  ... 

NFL Picks: Sunday Night Football – Giants at Vikings

NFL Picks: New York Giants at Minnesota Vikings on Sunday Night Football Okay, I was wrong about the Philadelphia Eagles making next week meaningful. Instead, I think the New York Giants will win an otherwise meaningless game so they can continue to say “if only” this season. I also think the NFL needs some viewers next week, and keeping the Atlanta Falcons alive while sacrificing the undefeated season storyline means only a Minnesota Vikings loss can make next week look important. The fix is in folks.

Why else would “the greatest coach of all time” choose to kick after winning  ... 

NFL Picks: Washington Redskins at Philadelphia Eagles

NFL Picks: Washington Redskins at Philadelphia Eagles (-3) The Washington Redskins and Philadelphia Eagles meet in Week 16 with both teams controlling their own destiny. The Washington Redskins clinch with a win on the road against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Philadelphia Eagles clinch by winning out. The New York Giants need the Dallas Cowboys to beat the Washington Redskins in Week 17 after an Eagles win this week while beating a playoff team with their best player suspended and beating the Eagles to end the season. The NFC East is as hilarious in its final weeks as it was once Tony  ... 

NFL Picks: Christmas Eve, Thursday Night Football – Chargers Raiders

NFL Picks (Christmas Eve): San Diego Chargers at Oakland Raiders We must have been really bad this year. In addition to a lump of coal under the tree, we get this steaming turd of a Thursday Night Football game between the San Diego Chargers and Oakland Raiders as they battle for who gets to flee to Los Angeles sooner.

Seriously, Santa, what did we do to deserve this? As the in-laws pour in, we all gather around the fire to watch Phillip Rivers pad stats in another uneventful San Diego Chargers season against an Oakland Raiders team that continues to  ... 

CASH CHAMPIONSHIP – NFL KING 2015 [Live!] – ROUND 12 RECAP

Ladies and gentlemen…. The King title of the ZCODE NFL CASH CHAMPIONSHIP 2015 goes to…. Steve Stamos aka Mr Selectivity!!! Stamos finished this contest as a unbeaten player with 10 of 10 with his official picks and 14 of 14 including his all leans submitted on the contest forum!!! Hats off and standing ovation! Congratulations! Pursuit group with Derek in the front was in the race till the last round, but great call on totals made by Stamos on his lovely Cardinals was too much for his opponents! Big wins and big drama till  ... 

NFL Picks: Cardinals vs Eagles, Sunday Night Football

NFL Picks: Arizona Cardinals at Philadelphia Eagles Every week I seem to say something about how good the Arizona Cardinals are. By now, you’re probably tired of me repeating something about Carson Palmer bringing balance to a team with great receivers, solid running back depth, and great coaching. It’s getting boring to write about how this aggressive secondary leads an exciting and capable defense. We say every week that the Arizona Cardinals are one of the best teams infootball… and it’s true.

The Philadelphia Eagles scare me here because their season is on the line. They’re home, it’s cold, and  ... 

NFL Picks: New York Jets at Dallas Cowboys (+3)

NFL Picks: New York Jets at Dallas Cowboys I feel validated. As an unabashed Tony Romo fan, I have enjoyed every moment of the Dallas Cowboys’ epic collapse to the bottom of a horrible division while he’s been injured. There is little doubt that the Cowboys would be atop the NFC East if Romo had stayed healthy. It’s like telling your friends in high school that the band geek in the glasses is actually about to be a bombshell. Tony Romo, my Disney-era Ariana Grande, never looked like much until the team imploded without him.

A wager here turns on  ... 

CASH CHAMPIONSHIP – NFL KING 2015 [Live!] – ROUND 11 RECAP

UNSTOPABLE STAMOS! It was another fantastic round for most of the players and we have big drama and tight battle for the prizes before last round! Stamos continues his domination in the contest. Officially his winning streak is set to 9 and it means Stamos is already a winner in the longest winning streak competition. However there is still very interesting run for the prizes in this category, because if Stamos win in the main rank then other players will be awarded for longest streaks. Check details below!

Remember that after round 12 last  ... 

NFL Picks: Oakland Raiders at Denver Broncos

NFL Picks: Oakland Raiders at Denver Broncos We’ve got a couple teasers this week and only one pick that is ATS. After posting the first half of a teaser yesterday, I figured I would put an afternoon game up featuring the Denver Broncos at -6. This looks like a solid opportunity for a ML teaser against a weak Oakland Raiders team.

The Oakland Raiders offense is young and sloppy. Meanwhile, the Denver Broncos defense is the best in football. At home, with this pass rush that might just be the best in the league, I think you’ll see the Denver  ...
