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  ... 

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  ... 

NFL Picks: Dallas Cowboys at Green Bay Packers

NFL Picks: Dallas Cowboys at Green Bay Packers Two storied franchises do battle here, but the Dallas Cowboys are without Tony Romo and the Green Bay Packers are really struggling. Aaron Rodgers does not seem to be the reliable leader everyone expects from him each week. Still, it’s the Dallas Cowboys without Tony Romo. -6.5 seems like a gift, and teased to a ML wager it basically is.

The Dallas Cowboys without Tony Romo are like the Cavs without Lebron… N’Sync without Justin Timberlake… Selma Hayek without boobs. The offensive line is solid but the running game is not. Dez  ... 

NFL Picks: Minnesota Vikings at Arizona Cardinals, TNF

NFL Picks: Minnesota Vikings at Arizona Cardinals, Thursday Night Football When I went to bed, the Arizona Cardinals were -8.5 against the Minnesota Vikings. I woke up and the line had jumped past 10 points. I really like the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals have made me a lot of money this year. I imagine this is what a pimp feels like about a girl who has performed well after taking her under his wing and teaching her the tools of the trade. Like any good pimp, you have to know what’s really going on if you’re going to bet the  ... 

NFL Picks: Dallas Cowboys at Washington Redskins, MNF

NFL Picks: Dallas Cowboys at Washington Redskins The Dallas Cowboys really are that bad. They have no quarterback. The Cowboys are still in the playoff hunt, but without a quarterback I don’t see them having a chance here. The Washington Redskins are not a good team and are by no means reliable but they have a chance to win the division. On their home field on national television, I can’t see them letting this one slip away.

That said, I cannot trust the Washington Redskins with my money so I will not be placing a wager on Monday Night Football  ... 

NFL Picks: Arizona Cardinals at St. Louis Rams

NFL Picks: Arizona Cardinals at St. Louis Rams The St. Louis Rams are your ex-girlfriend. Six months ago everything looked great while you were writing up your preseason predictions and there was all the promise in the world for this great defense and their new quarterback. Then, you hit some rocky times, but Todd Gurley broke in as the top running back in football and everything was fine again. The sex was awesome and you were proud to have supported the St. Louis Rams during those tougher times. She even did that thing you like that you don’t really like  ... 

NFL Picks: Green Bay Packers at Detroit Lions

NFL Picks: Green Bay Packers at Detroit Lions – Thursday Night Football Something is wrong with the Green Bay Packers. Ever since Aaron Rodgers started sleeping with that model, the Green Bay Packers offense has really stumbled. Sure, by that logic the Green Bay Packers would be better off with Tim Tebow at quarterback than Aaron Rodgers – but maybe there really is something to it. Rodgers wouldn’t be the first quarterback to take his off the field romance rumor issues on the field. Remember when Tony Romo took Jessica Simpson on vacation during that bye week?

Maybe the team is  ... 

NFL Picks: Baltimore Ravens at Cleveland Browns, MNF

NFL Picks: Baltimore Ravens at Cleveland Browns The Baltimore Ravens season has not gone to plan. Joe Flacco is gone for the season and may miss some of next year. They lost their top wideout and their top defensive player early on, and tonight they will be without their top running back again. This is not the Baltimore Ravens team of old. This isn’t even the Baltimore Ravens team of new.

The Cleveland Browns also probably didn’t envision a season like this, but it’s been more their own doing than anything else and I’m pretty sure everyone else saw it coming  ... 

NFL Picks: New England Patriots at Denver Broncos

NFL Picks: New England Patriots at Denver Broncos It’s a shame we won’t get to see another round of what could have been the final installment of Tom Brady versus Peyton Manning. Still, this Sunday Night Football matchup between the New England Patriots and Denver Broncos is about as exciting as they come.

The Denver Broncos have the best defense in football. They have a tremendous pass rush, a strong secondary, and linebackers that fly around the entire field. They really get after quarterbacks. Tom Brady and his pretty hair and his super hot wife does not like to get  ... 

NFL Picks: Bills Patriots, Monday Night Football

NFL Picks: Buffalo Bills at New England Patriots, MNF We’ve hit both picks we posted for this week’s primetime games, which is a pretty impressive feat given the manipulation that Las Vegas can usually pull off on those types of games. Now, in a divisional rivalry game between the Buffalo Bills and the New England Patriots, we go for a perfect week on Monday Night Football.

This game seems too obvious. Public money is pouring in, the New England Patriots are undefeated and home, the Buffalo Bills have been mediocre and don’t seem to have the quarterback play necessary to beat  ...
