NFL Picks: Giants Redskins Thursday Night Football Prediction

Thursday Night Football NFL Picks: Washington Redskins at New York Giants (-3) This is a tricky matchup between two evenly matched divisional rival on a short week. The Washington Redskins are coming off an exciting win against a far superior St. Louis Rams team. The New York Giants blew another late lead with bad time management and poor quarterback decision-making. Granted, this loss was not as bad as deliberately trying to not score a game-winning touchdown, but it was nearly just as bad a disaster and the Giants are reeling.

Seriously, I cannot understand how Eli Manning can tell his  ... 

NFL Playoffs Picks, NFC Championship: Seahawks Packers

NFL Playoffs Picks, NFC Championship: Green Bay Packers vs Seattle Seahawks (-7.5) We had a perfect bracket in the NFC this year after an injured Aaron Rodgers led the Green Bay Packers through some controversy last round. Hell, the Dallas Cowboys were only there because of a similar officiating issue, so we feel like it all balanced out (in our favor). So, with nothing broken, why change a thing? We’ll stick to our original prediction here – especially given the health of Aaron Rodgers – and take the Seattle Seahawks at home.

Quite frankly, the Packers looked scared the first time  ... 

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

NFL Picks: Monday Night Football – Denver Broncos (-3) at Cincinnati BengalsWe got in early and saved ourselves half a point here, but got in early on the Steelers and cost ourselves a half point. Everything balanced out and, either way, my system in the VIP Picks forum is 1-0 coming into Monday Night, and we can’t lose money but we can almost double up here.

The Bengals have a lot to play for, but they’re a volatile bunch. I don’t trust them, and inconsistencies at quarterback and sloppy play has made them a borderline playoff team instead of the runaway  ...

– Z-Code Public Money Tools Explained

I have my hesitations about this game to begin with and probably won’t be placing a wager. We’ll be monitoring it closely when we get closer to game time, but I wanted to take this opportunity to explain our public money tools in the VIP Club as well as my thoughts coming into this one. I’ll start with game analysis for the Dallas Cowboys at Chicago Bears on Thursday Night Football and move onto why it’s backed up by the computer.

If you want to  ... 

NFL Picks: Sunday Night Football | Broncos at Chiefs

NFL Picks: Denver Broncos at Kansas City ChiefsArrowhead is always a tough place to play. The Chiefs are on a nice stretch of great football, pulling within a game of the Denver Broncos for first in the division. Ultimately, with so many teams in the AFC currently with four losses, the winner of this game can pull a little bit further from the pack by securing a better chance at the division title.

That’s why I’m going with the Denver Broncos here. They’re a dog, so there’s a ton of value in the money line for me with this +1  ... 

Thanksgiving NFL Picks: Chicago Bears at Detroit Lions

NFL Picks: Thanksgiving Day Game – Chicago Bears at Detroit Lions This is a funny game for a number of reasons – it’s a rivalry game with a big point spread on a national stage, for one. More importantly, it’s arguably the best pass rush in football against arguably the worst offensive line in football with arguably one of the panickiest quarterbacks in football. That’s a recipe for disaster.

Seven might be too many, I agree, and the line is a little sharp. That said, how do you trust Jay Cutler here? He’s going to take a beating, and ultimately,  ... 

NFL Picks: Thursday Night Football – Kansas City Chiefs at Oakland Raiders

NFL Picks: Thursday Night Football – Kansas City Chiefs at Oakland Raiders (+7.5)I don’t like this line. I think it’s dangerous and there are a number of reasons to avoid this one. I actually lean to the underdog, but because I can’t trust them, personally, I’m going to place a very small wager.

This is a short preparation week, and while the Raiders don’t exactly set the world on fire with their offensive weapons, that is still going to be a factor that favors the home team. Oakland is a crazy place to play, and as a heavy underdog  ... 

NFL Picks, Thursday Night Football: Buffalo Bills vs Miami Dolphins

NFL Picks, Thursday Night Football: Buffalo Bills at Miami Dolphins

This is a fun one. Both teams are 5-4, squarely in the wild card race, and not prohibitively behind the Pats atop the AFC East. Realistically, though, falling to .500 would make things difficult in the playoff race, falling behind the entirety of the NFC North, among others.

The Buffalo Bills had a nice tandem at running back before both Fred Jackson and CJ Spiller went down. Jackson may be back in the fold, but I’m not sure how useful he will be with a lingering groin issue.  ... 

NFL Picks Week Ten: Saints Niners, Falcons Bucs

NFL Picks Week Ten, Double Pick: New Orleans Saints vs San Francisco 49ers, Atlanta Falcons at Tampa Bay Buccaneers

NFL Picks Week Ten: Atlanta Falcons at Tampa Bay Buccaneers

This line opened up at -1 and we jumped in. Again, by being early this week, my forum saved us some points for the VIP Club community, but we’ll analyze this one both ways. I just don’t see how the Atlanta Falcons can be this bad, and I still don’t believe in the Bucs.

I think it is a tremendous mistake to go back to Josh McCown over future franchise quarterbacks, even if they’re as mediocre as Mike Glennon. This is a lifetime backup who had one decent season in Chicago with some of the best weapons in football. On a team as weak as Tampa, I don’t see him having success. I also question breaking up the connection that Glennon was establishing with a now-healthy Mike Evans. Either way,  ... 

NFL Picks Week Nine: Baltimore Ravens at Pittsburgh Steelers

NFL Picks Week Nine: Baltimore Ravens at Pittsburgh SteelersThe Baltimore Ravens are probably the better team if this game was played at a neutral site. Baltimore has more balance and probably has a better defense. That said, Pittsburgh wakes up for home games.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are capable of exploding at any time. Antonio Brown is one of the top weapons in football, Ben Roethlisberger is coming off an absurdly prolific passing performance, and the Steelers are far too hot to bet against right now.

My lean is to the Steelers, with computer support and good reason. This is always a tight, grinding rivalry game, so we temper our wagers considerably.

Steelers 27 – Ravens 20
