NFL Week 11: Three Games to Bet this Weekend

NFL Week 11: Three Games to Bet this Weekend Welcome to week 11 of the 2016 NFL season. Here are Z-Code’s favorite picks for this Sunday’s action.

Green Bay Packers at Washington Redskins The Packers have lost 4 of their last six (including the last 3 in a row) and are lined up to face the burning hot Redskins in Washington on Sunday. The Redskins have lost only 1 of their last 6 and have reignited their offense with a powerful new rushing game in the form of Robert Kelley. Kelley ran for just under a hundred yards against the  ... 

NFL Week 8 Thursday Night Football: Jacksonville Jaguars at Tennessee Titans

NFL Week 8 Thursday Night Football: Jacksonville Jaguars at Tennessee Titans The Jacksonville Jaguars are meeting the Tennessee Titans for a garbage-fest of thursday night football. Both teams have won two of their last three with those two wins being the only ones Jacksonville has managed to steal all season. Both teams have lost to essentially every decent team they’ve played with their wins coming from the likes of Cleveland, Miami, Chicago etc. At Z-Code we try to recommend to our followers that they avoid games exactly like this. When two bad teams play against each other there is little  ...

NFL DFS Picks Week 2

NFL Week 2 DFS Picks by Position Quarterbacks: Eli Manning 8100 Eli Manning was one of my picks last week and he had a decent showing throwing for 207 with 3 tds and an interception. Eli has genuine weapons surrounding him this year with the rebound of Victor Cruz and the emergence of rookie Sterling Shepard. Furthermore, pass-catching specialist, Shane Vereen will get his fair share of catches from the backfield. This week Eli has the New Orleans Saints at home and is poised to absolutely shred that defense. The Saints are one of the worst defenses in football but  ...

Carolina Panthers Will Not Win Super Bowl 50 Vs Denver Broncos, Peyton Manning

Super Bowl 50 Predictions, NFL Picks: Denver Broncos vs Carolina Panthers Everything about Super Bowl 50 points to the Carolina Panthers winning this game on paper. If you’ve followed the Denver Broncos this season and throughout these playoffs, it is clear that Peyton Manning is on his last legs.

The offense is stumbling a little bit, the receivers are dropping Manning’s wobbly passes, and without the downfield passing game the Denver Broncos running game has had trouble establishing itself. This is an offense that quite simply gave the Patriots too many chances to win the AFC championship. They barely deserve to  ... 

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  ... 

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  ...
