NFL Picks, Thursday Night Football: Indianapolis Colts at Tennessee Titans

NFL Picks – Thursday Night Football: Indianapolis Colts at Tennessee Titans

The fact of the matter is that the Indianapolis Colts haven’t been the same team since Reggie Wayne went down. Wayne was Andrew Luck’s top receiver, and the offense hasn’t clicked in his absence. We saw the Colts go from a team playing great football against the best in the league to a team suddenly unable to move the ball. That’s a factor here against a Tennessee Titans defense, at home, on a short week, that is pretty good. The tandem backfield is also missing half of it’s firepower. I  ... 

NFL Picks – Monday Night Football: Miami Dolphins at Tampa Bay Buccaneers

NFL PIcks Week Ten: Monday Night Football – Miami Dolphins at Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Public money is balanced on a day with no hockey plays. Vegas appears to be content with trapping the public in other games and this is a good ol’ fashioned borefest between two bad teams on Monday Night Football.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have underachieved, but nearly defeated the Seattle Seahawks last week. If that’s any indication of what they’re capable of, the Miami Dolphins could be in trouble in Tampa tonight. I happen to be of the opinion that last week was a fluke.

Z-Code agrees. The spread at -1 seems inconsequential and the parameters are in agreement. Despite the Dolphins being on the road, Z=Code gives them a 63% chance to win and 3.5 stars of value. There is a 61% chance they cover the spread. Public money is relatively even, and the only reason for concern, as far as the algorithm goes, is that  ... 

NFL Picks Week Ten: Jacksonville Jaguars Vs Tennessee Titans

NFL Picks Week Ten: Jacksonville Jaguars at Tennessee Titans

It’s hard to disagree with the computer on this one. For those that follow the VIP Club and it’s Baromir Parlay Selection strategy, this is a perfect fit.

The Jags have been horrible this year and the Titans have been delightfully consistent. This appears like an excellent time for a money line parlay. But – looking at this game – who didn’t think that. So, we look a little deeper for some spread value.

This is a divisional rivalry, so there’s a chance the familiarity between the teams keeps this one  ...

NFL Picks: Thursday Night Football – Washington Redskins at Minnesota Vikings

NFL Picks and Predictions Week Ten: Washington Redskins at Minnesota Vikings, Thursday Night Football

The Washington Redskins had a goal-line stand last week that could come to define their season.  After a Danny Woodhead touchdown seemed to seal a crushing defeat, the play was reviewed and the Chargers had the ball on the half yard line.  The Redskins held the Chargers out of the endzone, forcing a field goal that led to overtime.  Washington would win the game after it felt like a ten point lead and possibly the season had slipped away.

The Minnesota Vikings aren’t playing for much.  ... 

Featured interview with legendary Dexter

1. hi Dexter.  You’ve been very successful on sports investing. Please tell us

more about your story.

The first time I came upon sports gambling was my Freshman year in High school.

A friend of mine introduced me to sports gambling slips. The very first parlay I played won five hundred dollars. This was a dream for a kid that lived in one of the most crime infested neighborhoods. The passion of playing Baseball, Football and Basketball growing up only enhanced the urge to dominate sports gambling. After High school I actually stepped back from sports gambling. It was  ... 

NFL Picks Week Nine: Cincinnati Bengals at Miami Dolphins, Thursday Night Football

NFL Picks Week Nine: Cincinnati Bengals at Miami Dolphins

I never thought the Dolphins were all that good. I bet them for under on total wins, Ive bet against them for profit all year. I don’t think the Dolphins at 2.5 will cover.

The Bengals have a good team. Great defense, good running game, excellent deep threat passing game. Balance should be the key here. Cincy has an edge as long as they can play their game in this one, which will be tough on the road but I expect them to get it done.

Public money is coming in  ... 

Featuring Vegas Legend Packer Dave

1. Hi Packer Dave! You are one of those legendary guys who already

live the life that most sports investors dream of. Even though you might not realize it, your story is really inspiring for most of the guys who are just starting out!  How did you start sports investing

yourself? Tell us more about yourself, where are you from? Well my name is Dave and I am originally from Milwaukee, WI and lived and graduated high school in Wichita, KS, I actually traveled quite a bit as a child but those are the 2 places I really lived the most and say I’m  ... 

WEEK 6 NFL Grand Cash Championship – RESULTS

Great week! Every team scored and we had second highest result with goals scored in a week in contest history. Both conferences scored 349 goals. Very interesting scenario in west this time. Mustangs need only 2 point to win conference and behind them there is huge battle for playoffs spot.

Expos 7 : 11 Quad Aces

Ouch! That is painfull scenario for Expos. They were leading before last game, but lost because Seahawks didn’t cover for Dexter (f.white42). This way both teams went with wins and 2 lost, but Aces took better odds and won by 4. Well played by  ... 

Monday Night Football Picks: Seattle Seahawks at St. Louis Rams

NFL Picks Week Eight: Seattle Seahawks at St. Louis Rams, Monday Night Football

I don’t trust the Seahawks on the road. I know they came through last week on a short week, but they don’t travel well. They make me nervous.

That said, they’re an elite team. Seattle has one of the best defenses in football – led by an aggressive secondary and incredible front seven depth. The offense is physical and a bruising running game wears teams down.

Also, the Rams are terrible.

I respect the hell out of Jeff Fisher, but I don’t see how he can pull  ... 

NFL Picks and Predictions Week Eight: Sunday Night Football, Packers Vikings

NFL Picks and Predictions: Sunday Night Football, Green Bay Packers at Minnesota Vikings

I don’t feel comfortable betting such a big line on the road, and as such my only play here is a “Baromir Style” parlay on the moneyline for the Green Bay Packers.

The Vikings had a horrible performance last week as an ailing Adrian Peterson failed to get going early. Losing to a winless team is bad, but this is a divisional game on national television, and that usually keeps the score tight.

On the road in Minnesota, a hostile environment for anyone let alone the hated  ... 

NFL Picks Week Eight: Thursday Night Football – Carolina Panthers at Tampa Bay Buccaneers

NFL Picks Week Eight: Thursday Night Football – Carolina Panthers at Tampa Bay Buccaneers

I’m going to playfully 3/4 of a unit disagree with the computer here, but I’m buying 1/2 a point. Tampa Bay Bucs +7 is my play here.

I’m making this play on the law of averages – nothing more. Are you ready for some mind-blowingly in depth football analysis?

87% on the money line, 73% on the spread. Vegas is baiting the public and they’ve bitten. THursdays always favor the home team and we’re getting a full touchdown.  And aren’t the Bucs due for a win? ... 

Monday Night Football Predictions: New York Giants Vs Minnesota Vikings

NFL Picks Week Seven: Monday Night Football, Minnesota Vikings at New York Giants

The New York Giants are winless. Nobody saw it coming, but now that it’s here we can see why. They have no running game. They have a weak defense. The schedule hasn’t been particularly kind, and turnovers have killed the Giants.

Can the Minnesota Vikings get enough pressure on Eli Manning to keep him struggling? The Giants will be one-dimensional as usual, but how bad exactly are the Vikings? Is Jared Allen healthy?

So many questions. Two bad teams. After the computer got the better of me in  ... 

NFL Picks: Peyton Manning, Broncos Face Indianapolis Colts, Sunday Night Football

NFL Picks Week Seven: Denver Broncos at Indianapolis Colts – The Return of Peyton Manning to Indy, Sunday Night Football

The beauty of the Z-Code system, across all sports, is that it removes some of the emotion out of sports investing. If you can find a way to analyze this game without considering the highly emotional return of Peyton Manning to Indianapolis, I’d be impressed. I certainly can’t do it.

Manning had some glorious years is Indy, though he usually came up short in the big game. This is quite a big game. Will his jitters get the better of him, or will he dominate?

A great general rule is to never bet against Peyton Manning. A better rule is to never bet against him at night. He’s simply dominant.

I don’t think the Colts defense can shut down the Broncos here. They looked awful last week, they lack depth, and they’re battling injuries. I think the only play in  ... 

NFL Picks Week Seven: Seattle Seahawks at Arizona Cardinals, Thursday Night Football

NFL Picks Week Seven: Seattle Seahawks at Arizona Cardinals Thursday Night Football

I don’t usually challenge the computer, but I think I’m going to here. I’ll pull back my wager (that’s the beauty of this multifaceted system), but I’m still going to place a small one against Z-Code. Challenge accepted!

The Seattle Seahawks are a bad road team. They’ve got one of the greatest home field edges in football, but they struggle when they have to travel. Adding to this problem for Seattle is that Thursday Night Football always favors the home team. The short week to prepare comes with  ...
