Sports Picks & Predictions

15* SHARP PLAY on 49ers -8 -110

The 49ers (-8) are worth a look as a big road favorite against the Lions in Week 1. Laying this big of number on the road isn't a wise move long-term, but this is an absolute mismatch. The 49ers are a legit Super Bowl contender with all their guys back from injury. The Lions are one of the least talented and worst run teams in the NFL. I never liked Jared Goff in LA. I think he's going to regress a lot, as it just felt like it was more McVay and his scheme than anything with the Rams. Give me the 49ers -8! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jets vs Panthers over 44 -110

The OVER (44) is worth a look in Sunday's Week 1 NFL action that has the Panthers visiting the Jets. I think New York is going to be a sneaky good OVER team this year. The Jets are still really bad on the defensive side of the ball, but should be much improved now that Adam Gase isn't running things. Rookie quarterback Zach Wilson looked the part in the preseason and I love the Shanahan scheme they are installing under former 49ers assistant Mike LaFleur. I also think Carolina is a sneaky good OVER team. I don't think Sam Darnold is a downgrade at all at QB and they get back one of the best running backs in the NFL in Christian McCaffrey. Play the OVER 44! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bucs -8 -110

The Bucs (-8) are worth a look as a pretty big home favorite against the Cowboys in Thursday's NFL season opener. I just don't trust this Dallas team. Sure the offense is going to be potent with Dak Prescott back under center, but he's been banged up all training camp and facing one of the best defenses in the league. The even bigger issue here for Dallas is their defense. They got no shot at slowing down Tom Brady and this high-powered TB offense. Bucs win this one by double-digits easy. Play Tampa Bay -8! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bills +3½ -115

The Bills (+3.5) are worth a look here as a road dog against the Chiefs in Sunday's AFC Championship Game. As difficult as it may be to bet against Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs at Arrowhead in a game of this magnitude, I believe Buffalo is built to take down the defending champs. The Bills have a defense that can keep KC from throwing it all over them and an offense that has been one of the best in the league down the stretch. Bills are also 9-1 ATS last 10 games, while the Chiefs are 1-8 ATS in their last 9. Play Buffalo +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Browns +10½ -113

The Browns (+10.5) are worth as a big road dog against the Chiefs in Sunday's AFC Divisional matchup. While Mahomes and KC offense figure to be able to move the ball against a suspect Browns defense, I think Baker Mayfield and that Cleveland offense will be able to do their part when they have the ball. Chiefs kind of have a way of coming out flat in these playoff games before rallying to win. I just don't see this turning into a blowout. Play the Browns +10.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Packers -6½ -110

The Packers (-6.5) are worth a look laying less than a touchdown at home on Saturday against the Rams. LA had an impressive win at Seattle over Wild Card weekend, but they had a number of guys get banged up. Aaron Donald is going to play but will he be 100%? It seems unlikely. Goff is also playing at less than 100%. That's the Rams two most important players. Green Bay is healthy and fresh after getting a bye and I just don't see them having much trouble here. Play the Packers -6.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bears vs Saints over 47 -112

The OVER (47) is worth a look in Sunday's Wild Card matchup between the Saints and Bears. A few months ago I would have never considered taking the OVER in a Bears game at this high of a number, but Chicago has figured something out on offense. The Saints are also going to be as lethal offensively as we have seen with Michael Thomas back in the mix. Bears defense is good, but definitely not as strong playing in a dome as they are outside where Mother Nature can really aid them this time of year. Play the OVER 47! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Packers -4½ +102

The Packers (-4.5) are worth a look as a short road favorite against the Bears. Green Bay needs this game to clinch the No. 1 seed in the NFC, while the Bears can earn a Wild Card spot with a victory. The fact that Chicago has something to play and have looked good over the last month, I think it has the Bears getting too much respect here. Chicago's simply feasted on some bad teams, who all play little to no defense. Aaron Rodgers is just too good to lose a game like this. Play Green Bay -4.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Cowboys -1 -115

The Cowboys (-1) are worth a look as they go on the road to face the Giants in a big game that could propel one of these teams to a division title if Washington were to lose at Philadelphia later tonight. Dallas comes in having won 3 straight and have scored 30+ points in each of those victories. The Giants have lost 3 straight and scored a combined 26 points in those 3 games. I just don't see New York being able to keep pace offensively in this one. Play the Cowboys -1! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bills -7 -105

The Bills (+7) are worth a look here as a touchdown favorite on the road against the Patriots. Just because Buffalo has locked up the AFC East doesn't mean there isn't more to play for. The Bills still got a shot at the No. 2 seed, which would ensure another home game if they can win on Wild Card weekend. Also, if there's a game they are going to lay down in, it's next week against the Dolphins. Not at home against the Patriots on Monday Night Football. New England just doesn't have the offense to keep this close. Play the Bills -7! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Steelers +2½ -112

Pittsburgh (+2.5) is worth a look here as a small home dog against the Colts. This is the perfect time to jump back on the Steelers bandwagon. I know the Steelers have lost 3 straight and just lost as a two touchdown favorite last week at Cincinnati, but they should not be a home dog here. This is still one of the top teams in the league and I confident they get things back on track with a win against Indy. Play Pittsburgh +2.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on 49ers +5 -105

The 49ers (+5) are worth a look here as a decent road dog against division rival Arizona. With SF having played their last few home games at Arizona's stadium, the home field edge is not as strong as it normally would be. I also think there's a perception here that because this game means everything to Arizona in terms of making the playoffs and nothing to SF, that the 49ers are going to not show up. I don't think that will be the case at all. Plenty of motivation for SF to play spoiler. Play the 49ers +5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Vikings vs Saints under 50½ -101

The UNDER (50.5) is worth a shot in Friday's NFL action between the Saints and Vikings. Minnesota just had their playoff hopes put to rest in last week's loss to the Bears at home. I don't think there's going to be any life in this team. The Saints on the other hand are absolutely decimated with injuries on offense. Brees didn't look himself and there's really no reason to put him at risk in this game. Look for New Orleans to just run the ball down the Vikings throat, eat up clock and put this game to rest. Play the UNDER 50.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Steelers -14½ +100

The Steelers (-14.5) are worth a look as a big road favorite against the Bengals. I just think because Pittsburgh hasn't looked as good here the last few weeks, it has people hesitant to lay this many points on the road with them. I get it, but all signs here point to the Steelers running away with this one. Cincinnati can't do anything on the offensive side of the ball and the defense isn't much better. They have to play great and have a lot of breaks go their way just to make games competitive since losing rookie quarterback Joe Burrow. Play the Steelers -14.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bears vs Vikings under 46½ -110

The UNDER (46.5) is worth a look in Sunday's big NFC North showdown between the Bears and Vikings. This is going to feel like a playoff game. The winner still has a shot at the 7th seed, while the loser is all but out of it. I'm not buying into the Bears offensive surge their last two games against the Lions and Texans. This is a team that has to win big games with their defense. These two just played a few weeks ago and combined for only 32 points. Expect more of the same in the rematch. Play the UNDER 46.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Panthers vs Packers over 51½ -110

The OVER (51.5) is worth a shot here in Saturday's NFL action that has the Packers hosting the Panthers. It's pretty safe to say here that Green Bay is going to be able to put up points on Carolina. The Packers have scored 30 or more in 4 straight games and the Panthers have allowed 28 or more in 4 of their last 5. If we get 30 from Green Bay we need right around 20 from Carolina to put us in prime position to cash this ticket. I think with Bridgewater and the Panthers pass game they can do it and possibly go score for score with the Packers and both teams score 30. Play the OVER 51.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Chargers +3½ -108

The Chargers (+3.5) are worth a look catching more than a field goal on the road against division rival Las Vegas. I know the Raiders technically are the only team in the playoff race, but I just think LV is in a bad place right now. They got multiple starters out on defense and I don't think firing the DC is going to make things any better on that side of the ball. It's a lack of talent more than it is coaching. There's also plenty of motivation for LA to play spoiler here in a prime time game. Play the Chargers +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Browns +3½ -115

The Browns (+3.5) are worth a look on Monday Night Football. Cleveland will be hosting division rival Baltimore in a game you know the Browns have had circled after that ugly 38-6 loss they were dealt by the Ravens back in Week 1. These are two different teams since they played in September. Cleveland is surging off 4 straight wins. Baltimore is just 1-3 in their last 4 and while they did win their last game, it was against a bad Cowboys team who plays absolutely no defense. This is also a tough spot for the Ravens, who are playing their 3rd game in 13 days because of that Week 12 game against the Steelers getting pushed back almost a week. Play the Browns +3.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Texans vs Bears under 46½ -105

The UNDER (46.5) is worth a look in Sunday's early action that has the Texans visiting the Bears. This has an ugly low-scoring game written all over it. On one side you have a Chicago offense that can't do anything against anybody. On the other you have a decimated Texans offense playing outside in frigid conditions against a really strong Bears defense. My numbers suggest this should be closer to 42.5, giving us quite a bit of value here. Play the UNDER 46.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Giants +3 -113

The Giants (+3) are worth a look here as a home dog against the Cardinals. The public really has fallen in love with Kyler Murray and Arizona this year. Even though the Cardinals are reeling, they continue to get love from the books. I just don't think they should be a favorite in this one. Arizona has lost 3 straight and failed to cover 5 straight games. Murray just doesn't seem right and that's a problem with the lack of defense this Cardinals team plays. Not to mention the Giants are one of the best defensive teams in the league. Play New York +3! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Patriots vs Rams over 44½ -109

The OVER (44.5) is worth a look on Thursday Night Football between the Rams and Patriots. Most are going to remember back to when these two teams played in the Super Bowl and combined for just 16 points in a 13-3 Pats win. Thing you have to keep in mind is they had two weeks to prepare for each in the Super Bowl. In this game they only have 3 days. I just don't think either defense will be on point and this is a really low number for a dome game in today's NFL. Play the OVER 44.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Ravens -8½ -102

The Ravens (-8.5) are worth a look as they host the Cowboys on Tuesday. Baltimore has lost 3 in a row and have been hit hard with Covid over the last couple of weeks, but they are getting a lot of guys back and should be ready to go for this one. Had these two teams played a few weeks ago, everyone would be on Baltimore at this price. I just don't get the love for Dallas. Cowboys can't stop the run, which is a big problem against Lamar Jackson and this Ravens offense. Dallas also is depleted on the offensive line after losing two more starters in their last game. Play Baltimore -8.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Washington Football Team vs Steelers over 43 -110

The books have set the total (43) to low for Monday's matchup between Pittsburgh and Washington. Steelers are coming off a 19-14 low-scoring game against rival Baltimore, but a lot of points were left on the board in that game. As for Washington, they just put up 41 in their last game and have scored at least 20 in 5 straight. Steelers are only playing on 4 days of rest, so it's unlikely their defense plays up to their potential. Play the OVER 43! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Texans +3½ -115

Houston (+3.5) is worth a look, as I don't think the Texans should be catching a field goal and the hook at home in a division game. Texans have really been a much more competitive team since they let go of Bill O'Brien. They come into this one having won 3 of their last 4 games and are riding a 3-game cover streak. Colts just got annihilated at home by the Titans 45-26. A once dominant Indy defense has now allowed 76 points in their last 2 games. Look for Deshaun Watson to have a big game in this one. Play the Texans +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jaguars +10½ -110

The Jaguars (+10.5) are the gift that just keeps on giving. Jacksonville has lost 10 straight and the books just keep inflating the number on this team, because the public only looks to play the other side. Jags have covered 3 of their last 4. Vikings are a good team and have been playing better of late, but no way should they be laying double-digits. Minnesota likely gets the win, but by 10 or fewer. Play the Jaguars +10.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Giants -6 -110

The Giants (-6) are worth a look here at less than a touchdown favorite against the Bengals. I just don't trust this Cincinnati team at all without Joe Burrow at quarterback. Burrow did a great job covering up a bad offensive line and no run game. Without him this offense is going to struggle to just get first downs. There's also nothing left to play for for the Bengals. Giants on the other hand can move into a tie with the Redskins for 1st place in the NFC East. New York is also coming off a bye. Play the Giants -6! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Cardinals -1½ -105

The Cardinals (-1.5) are worth a look here at basically a pick'em against the Patriots. I just think the books are giving New England way too much respect. With Kyler Murray cleared to play, I look for Arizona to win this game rather easily. Patriots just don't have the offensive fire-power to keep pace and are dealing with more injuries on their offensive line. Play the Cardinals -1.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Texans vs Lions under 51½ -110

The UNDER (51.5) is worth a look here in Sunday's early Thanksgiving action that has the Texans visiting the Lions. I don't get this total being in the 50's at all. Detroit was just shutout by the Panthers last week. Carolina's defense isn't much better than what Houston brings to the table. Lions are playing with a clearly injured Matthew Stafford. They ran it 40 times to 33 pass attempts last week in a blowout loss. I think Houston could get up big and grind this game out and keep it well below the number. Play the UNDER 51.5!  

20* SHARP PLAY on Rams vs Bucs under 48½ -106

The UNDER (48.5) is worth a look as the Rams visit the Bucs on Monday Night Football. Two really good defenses go at it in this one. LA has really been a great UNDER team with their ability to shutdown the other team and the offense controlling the clock. UNDER has cashed in each of the last 6 games for the Rams and we have seen this Tampa Bay offense really struggle to score against the top tier defenses. My numbers suggest this total should be closer to 44, so a lot of value at the current price. Play the UNDER 48.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Titans +6 +100

The Titans (+6) are worth a look in Sunday's NFL action that has Tennessee visiting Baltimore. I just don't trust this Ravens team at all right now. Lamar Jackson is nothing close to the MVP player we saw a year ago and the defense hasn't been as dominant in recent weeks as it was early in the year. Ravens couldn't slow down Derrick Henry last time they faced the Titans and I look for him to have another big game here. I'm confident Tennessee covers this number and would not be shocked if they won outright. Play the Titans +6! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Seahawks -3½ +113

The Seahawks (-3.5) are worth a look as a small home favorite on Thursday Night Football against the Cardinals. This is a prime spot to buy low on Seattle coming off back-to-back losses. Everyone is all over Russell Wilson for his poor play. On the other side you have the Cardinals fresh off a win over the Bills where they won the game on a last second Hail Mary pass. Could be tough for Arizona to get their emotions in check on just a few days rest. Also, Seahawks are going to be out for revenge from a 34-37 loss at Arizona in a game they really should have won. Play Seattle -3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Vikings vs Bears over 43 -106

The OVER (43) is worth a look as the Bears host the Vikings on Monday Night Football. The number here is just too low, even for a game involving Chicago. That's because this Vikings defense is one that Nick Foles and the Bears offense can have success against. It's no secret the Bears o-line is their biggest weakness. It will still be a problem, but not nearly as much as against a weak defensive line of Minnesota. I also like that Nagy gave up play calling, as he really was making some questionable calls. I think both teams hit the 20-point mark. Play the OVER 43! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jaguars vs Packers over 48½ -110

The OVER (48.5) is worth a look in Sunday's NFL matchup between the Jaguars and Packers. I look for Aaron Rodgers and Green Bay's offense to score at will against an awful Jacksonville defense. I'll take my chances that we get enough here from the Jags offense against a hit or miss GB defense to push this well over the mark. Jacksonville gives up 30.9 ppg and the Packers allow 25.5 ppg. Both giving up 6.2+ yards/play. Play the OVER 48.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Titans -1½ -110

The Titans (-1.5) are worth a look at home against the Colts on Thursday Night Football. It's no secret that Tennessee has been a little fortunate to be sitting with a 6-2 record, but this is still a really good team. I think the books have made a mistake here and really undervalued the Titans at home against a good but not great Indianapolis team. Play the Titans -1.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bears vs Titans over 46½ -110

The OVER (46.5) is worth a look in Sunday's NFL action between the Bears and Titans. Last week the Bengals were without a ton of starters on the offensive line and still this Tennessee defense couldn't do anything to slow down the opposition. This Titans defense will be exposed once again in this one. As for the Tennessee's offense, their run-pass balance should allow them to move the ball here on a good Chicago defense. Play the OVER 46.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on 49ers +6½ -115

The 49ers (+6.5) are worth a look as a home dog against the Packers on Thursday Night Football. The narrative for this one is the 49ers got no chance with all the guys they are missing, but this SF team has pulled this stunt before and went out and won when they had no business doing so. We don't need them to win, just keep it close and with the struggles GB is having on defense, I think they can at worst keep it within a TD. Play the 49ers +6.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Giants +13 -115

The Giants (+13.5) are worth a look as a near two touchdown home dog on Monday Night Football. There's just not a lot you can do to get the public to take New York against a red-hot Bucs team. So while this number might seem like a lot, it's probably inflated a couple points. The value here is with New York. Giants have a decent defense and are going to play inspired in this spot. You also have to wonder if the Bucs won't have a hard time looking ahead to next Sunday's prime time game (SNF) against division rival New Orleans. Play The Giants +13! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Dolphins +3½ -108

The Dolphins (+3.5) are worth a look. Everyone is down on Miami right now because they decided to bench Fitzpatrick for Tua. I get Fitzpatrick was playing well, but there's no question the more upside is with Tua and there's been nothing to make you think he's going to play poorly. I really think Tua is going to impress and having two weeks to prepare is huge for the youngster. I also feel like he's catching the Rams at the right time. LA is playing on short rest and has to travel clear across the country for an early start time. Play the Dolphins +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Falcons +2½ -101

The books are begging for money on the Panthers, who will host the Falcons on Thursday Night Football. The public is taking the bait. Even still big money is on Atlanta in this one, as the line continues to drop. Falcons undervalued because of how they keep finding ways to lose games. They are much better than their 1-6 record. Play Atlanta +2.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bears vs Rams under 45 -109

The UNDER (45) is worth a look on Monday Night Football between the Rams and Bears. This is the ideal matchup for a low-scoring game, as we have two offenses that have had their struggles scoring going up against two really strong defenses. Some people might few the Rams as a high-powered offense, but they are only scoring 25.3 ppg vs teams allowing 27.6 ppg. No one is confusing the Bears offense for being a juggernaut. Foles is an upgrade over Trubisky, but he just doesn't have the run game or weapons around him to excel. Play the UNDER 45! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Packers -3 -115

The Packers (-3) are an easy play for me. I just think what happened to Aaron Rodgers and the Packers last week in that ugly loss to the Bucs was an outlier for Green Bay. It couldn't have looked better to start, but they lost momentum and could never get it back. Rodgers had as bad a game as I can remember him having. Great players have a tendency to come back from a bad game with a great game. Texans have been playing better since they fired O'Brien, but they are off an all-time gut wrencher in last week's OT loss to the Titans. Play the Packers -3!

20* SHARP PLAY on Giants vs Eagles over 44 -110

No one is thinking shootout with these two teams. Giants' offense looks completely lost without Barkley and the Eagles have all those guys out on offense. Most will think the UNDER is a sharp play in this one. I actually think the OVER is the play here. New York's offense is closer than people realize to a breakthrough. Last week against a decent Redskins defense they only punted once. You also have to factor in the short rest. It's hard on defenses to play well on just 3 days of rest. Eagles can definitely score with Wentz under center. Play the OVER 44! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bills +5 -105

We are going to take the points with the Bills (+5) in their big Monday Night Football matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. No surprise we have seen the line move in favor of KC. While both teams lost last week, the betting public will have a hard time seeing the Chiefs lose two straight. That's why they keep backing them at a bad price. The value here is with the Bills catching over both the key numbers of 3 and 4. Would not be surprised at all if Buffalo won this game. Play the Bills +5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Rams -3 -105

The Rams (-3) are worth a look at San Francisco on Sunday Night Football. I lot of people look at this line as the books baiting you to take LA, but I think it's more of the 49ers still being overvalued from their Super Bowl run a year ago. This is the same team that just lost 43-17 at home to the Dolphins last week. I get they will have Jimmy G back, but he's not going to help the defense. Sean McVay and that Rams offensive attack should have a field day in this one. Play the Rams -3! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Patriots -8½ -110

The Patriots (-8.5) are worth a look at home against the Broncos in Week 6. Both teams haven't played since Week 4 because of COVID. The extra time to prepare will be beneficial to both teams, but more so to Bill Belichick and his staff. Few, if any, are better are preparing for an opponent. Patriots are also expected to get back starting QB Cam Newton, who was playing at a very high level before missing the Chiefs game with the virus. I expect him to have a big game here against a depleted Broncos defense. Play New England -8.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Titans +3½ -110

The Titans (+3.5) are worth a look as a home dog against the Bills. No one is giving Tennessee much of a shot in this game, even though the line suggests the books see this as a pretty even matchup. Titans will be down some key players, but they still got Henry and Tannehill. That's more than enough to move the ball. Buffalo is no longer a defensive juggernaut like they have been in years past. Play the Titans +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Saints -7 -110

I will lay the points with the Saints (-7) at home against the Chargers on Monday Night Football. It's been an up and down start to 2020 for New Orleans. A lot of people might look to take the 7 with LA, especially with how well rookie Justin Herbert has been playing. Also, no Michael Thomas for the Saints. I just don't see the Chargers keeping this close. 

We saw New Orleans get that offense back on track in their last game against the Lions. With the way Drew Brees and this offense like to show out in prime time home games, I expect NO to put up a big number. Herbert is good, but he's mistake prone. Chargers are also greatly handicapped by their head coach. Play the Saints -7! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Cardinals vs Jets under 47½ -112

The UNDER (47.5) is worth a look in Sunday's NFL action between the Jets and Cardinals. Kyler Murray and that Arizona offense haven't taken off like we thought. They only scored 23 two weeks ago at home against the Lions and last week managed just 21 against a sub-par Panthers defense. They could score a few more in this one, but the defense figures to allow a few less. The Jets are an absolute disaster right now on both sides of the ball. Play the UNDER 47.5!

20* SHARP PLAY on Bears +5 -110

The Bears (+5) are worth a look here as a home dog on Thursday Night Football against Tom Brady and the Bucs. No question that Tampa Bay is the public side in this one. I think we are getting a ton of value here with Chicago. Brady and that Bucs offense is hurting right now. They got several key guys out and others that are playing at less than 100%. Nick Foles wasn't great in his first start, but should bounce back with a strong showing in this one. Play Chicago +5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Falcons vs Packers under 57½ -110

The UNDER (57.5) is worth a look in tonight's NFL matchup between the Packers and Falcons. With the way these teams have been scoring, it will be hard for anyone to stomach betting the UNDER. I just think the total here is too high. As good as Aaron Rodgers has been, he's going to be without both Davante Adams and Allen Lazard. I think GB will look to run a lot more in this game and Atlanta's a defense they can pound the rock with success. Play the UNDER 57.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Colts -2½ -110

The Colts (-2.5) are worth a look as a small road favorite against the Bears. Everyone's perception of Chicago has changed dramatically after they finally benched Trubisky in favor of Nick Foles. I think it will entice a lot of people to take the points with the Bears at home. I just don't see Chicago winning this game. Colts are a sneaky good team and really have a good defense. Play the Colts -2.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Panthers +3½ -115

The Panthers (+3.5) are worth a look catching over a field goal at home against the Cardinals. Most have just written off Carolina after they lost star running back Christian McCaffrey. It's a big loss, but this team is out to prove there's more to offer than just him. Teddy Bridgewater has looked good with this team and he should be able to have some success against this Arizona defense. Arizona is not all they are made out to be and we saw some of that last week in their home loss to the Lions. Play the Panthers +3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jets +1 -115

The Jets (+1) are worth a look at basically a pick'em at home against the Broncos. Most will find an excuse to not watch this game between two bad teams that have been ravaged by injuries. I on the other hand see value with New York. Jets have a big edge playing at home on short rest and while Darnold is far from a franchise QB, he's better than what Denver is sending out in Rypien. Play the Jets +1! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Chiefs vs Ravens over 54½ -110

The OVER (54.5) is worth a look in the massive showdown between the Ravens and Chiefs on Monday Night Football. After a poor showing against the Chargers, I look for Mahomes and the KC offense to come to life on the big stage. Ravens defense is good, but there's no defense that can contain Mahomes. Last year the Chiefs put up 33 points and over 500 yards in a 33-28 win over the Ravens in Week 3. Lamar Jackson and the Ravens are even better offensively this year and Chiefs D is still finding its footing. This has shootout written all over it. Play the OVER 54.5! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Patriots -5½ -110

I'll take my chances here with the Patriots (-5.5) at home against the Raiders. This is a good time to fade Oakland. Raiders have started out 2-0, but this is not a playoff team. Not uncommon for a bad team to pull off a big upset in prime time like Oakland did last week beating the Saints on MNF. Now the Raiders are on short rest and have to travel across the country for an early start time. Cam Newton and the Pats will be too much. Play New England -5.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Raiders vs Patriots under 47½ -110

The UNDER (47.5) is worth a look in Sunday's NFL action between the Raiders and Patriots. I think we are getting value here after both of these teams came off a high-scoring affair in Week 2. There isn't many teams that can stop Russell Wilson. Look for New England's defense to be much better against a far less talented Raiders offense. I also think the Pats will go back to more of a run first attack against an inferior team. Play the UNDER 47.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jaguars -3 +105

The Jaguars (-3) are worth a look as a slim field goal favorite at home against the Dolphins on Thursday Night Football. Everyone was expected Jacksonville to be the worst team in the NFL. So far that hasn't been the case. Jags upset the Colts in Week 1 and almost upset the Titans in Week 2. Dolphins are not a good team and I think the worse a team is the harder it is for them to play well on the road in these Thursday games with just 3 days off. Minshew Mania will be in full force tonight. Play the Jaguars -3! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Jaguars +7½ -105

The Jaguars (+7.5) are worth a look as a big home dog against the Titans. Jacksonville pulled off the upset of Week 1 with a 27-20 victory over the Colts as a 7-point dog. No one was giving the Jaguars any shot in that game. The perception everyone had with this team is they were tanking for Trevor Lawrence. 

Clearly the players and coaches aren't trying to tank with the effort they gave in Week 1. I like Minshew. He's a legit NFL quarterback. Not having Fournette isn't the end of the world. Tennessee wasn't very sharp in their Week 1 game at Denver and now are on a short. Play the Jaguars +7.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jets +7 -105

The Jets (+7) are worth a look as a touchdown dog at home to the 49ers. I wasn't impressed at all with what I saw in San Francisco week 1. It's hard to explain and every year people think this is the team that will be the exception, but the Super Bowl loser really has struggled to perform close to expectations the following season. 

49ers lost some key pieces and are really decimated with injuries right now. They won't have George Kittle and he's who the offense really runs through. I get the Jets are a bad team, but this not as big a mismatch as you might think. Play the Jets +7! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Steelers vs Giants under 46 -110

The UNDER (46) is worth a look in the first game of tonight's Monday Night Football doubleheader. The Steelers will be welcoming back Big Ben on the road against a new look Giants team that will be debuting head coach Joe Judge.  I just don't see either offense doing a whole lot in this game. I think the perception is that Pittsburgh will be an offensive juggernaut with Big Ben back, but there's got to be some rust and there's not the same caliber a weapons than in the past when they had Bell and Brown. Pittsburgh does have a very good defense and should be able to dominate the line of scrimmage, keeping Barkley and Jones in check. Play the UNDER 46! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Seahawks -2½ -105

The Seahawks (-2.5) are worth a look against the Falcons. I really like Seattle to win this game. Russell Wilson is every bit as good as any other QB in this league and he should have himself quite the 1-2 punch with Lockett and Metcalf. Seattle's defense also got a massive upgrade in safety Jamal Adams. We all know how important the safety position is in that defense from the days they had both Chancellor and Thomas. Atlanta is all flash with their passing game. They don't have a very balanced attack and there's plenty of concerns with that defense. Play the Seahawks -2.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Bears +2½ -103

Chicago (+2.5) is worth a look here as a small road dog against the Lions. I think there's such a negative perception with the Bears because of Trubisky at quarterback that it has them showing big time value in Week 1. The Lions are just not a good team and the time is running out on head coach Matt Patricia. They got Matthew Stafford, but he's going to be without his go to guy in Kenny Golladay. They also have several other guys on the injury report. Bears defense is still rock solid and I think the offense will be much better in 2020. Play Chicago +2.5! 

20* 49ERS/CHIEFS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on 49ers vs Chiefs over 53½ -101

My money is on the OVER 53.5 in Super Bowl 54 between the Chiefs and 49ers. I just don't see this being a defensive battle at all. I think both of these teams are going to have no problem moving the football and with all the weapons I think we are going to see a lot of big plays that lead to quick scores. It also just seems like everytime there's a big game Mahomes and the Chiefs end up in a shootout. BET THE OVER 53.5! 

20* NFC/AFC PRO BOWL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on NFC vs AFC over 51 -110

My money is on the OVER 51 in the Pro Bowl Sunday. Defense is always at a big disadvantage in the Pro Bowl and it's pretty rare that we don't see a lot of offense. Too much value to pass up with the number here. BET THE OVER 51! 

20* SEAHAWKS/PACKERS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Seahawks vs Packers under 46½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 46.5 in Sunday's NFL action between the Seahawks and Packers. The UNDER is a perfect 6-0 in the playoffs heading into Sunday's games and I think there's a ton of value with the UNDER in this one. Green Bay's defense is only giving up 19.5 ppg at home and Seattle's defense is allowing just 19.8 ppg on the road. Packers didn't score more than 23 in their final 4 games of the regular season and SEattle has scored 21 or fewer in each of their last 3. BET THE UNDER 46.5! 

20* SEAHAWKS/EAGLES NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Eagles +2½ -110

My money is on the Eagles to cash in a win and cover as a 2.5-point home dog against the Seahawks in Sunday's NFC Wild Card action. Seattle has the much better record, but the Seahawks are no where close to as good as their record would indicate. Seattle only had two wins all season by more than a touchdown and closed out the season losing 3 of their last 4 when they had a chance to win the NFC West and get a first round bye. We saw New England struggle down the stretch and lose at home to the Titans yesterday. Eagles have all the momentum and just seem to find a way to win these games in the postseason when they are a dog. BET PHILADELPHIA +2.5! 

15* EAGLES/GIANTS NFL SHARP WINNER on Eagles vs Giants under 45½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 45.5 in Sunday's NFL action that has the Giants hosting the Eagles. These two teams played a few weeks back and both offenses struggled to much of anything. I expect more of the same as both teams are going to bring it. Philadelphia needs to win to clinch the NFC East and the Giants are fighting hard down the stretch and will be motivated to play spoiler. Eagles are decimated with injuries at the skill positions and their defense should be able to hold their own. BET THE UNDER 45.5! 

20* SAINTS/PANTHERS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Saints vs Panthers under 45½ -110

My money is on the Saints/Panthers to finish UNDER the total of 45.5 in Sunday's NFL action. I know New Orleans says they are playing this one to win, but I'm not buying it. While a first round bye is a possibility the only way they need to win here to get a bye is if GB loses to Detroit. They can also get a bye with a Seahawks win over SF, but they can actually lose, as they own the tie-breaker with Seattle. Wouldn't be shocked at all if Saints pulled some guys if they see GB has their game in check and even if they get up big early they are going to call of the dogs in the 2nd half and grind this thing out. BET THE UNDER 45.5! 

20* BENGALS/DOLPHINS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Bengals vs Dolphins under 46½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 46.5 in Sunday's NFL action that has the Dolphins hosting the Bengals. I get the Dolphins defense has been exposed on numerous occasions, but they should be in line for one of their best performances of the season against a struggling Bengals offense. Cincinnati hasn't scored more than 23 points in a game all season and have only eclipsed the 20 point mark 3 times. Really hard to combined for 47 points when one team can't offer much to help. I also think Miami's offense struggles a bit here as they really have no incentive to show up. BET THE UNDER 46.5! 

20* COLTS/SAINTS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Colts vs Saints over 46½ -110

My money is on the OVER 46.5 between the Colts and Saints on Monday Night Football. Indy's defense is not nearly as good against the pass (21st) as they are against the run (9th) and last week they let Jameis Winston throw for 467 yards and 4 scores. Saints are averaging 35.0 ppg in their last 4 and have averaged 34.2 ppg at home on Monday Night Football under head coach Sean Payton. With all the injuries New Orleans is dealing with defensively, I think the Colts do more than enough to eclipse the mark. BET THE OVER 46.5! 

20* JAGUARS/RAIDERS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Jaguars vs Raiders over 46 -110

My money is on the OVER 46 in Sunday's NFL action between the Raiders and Jaguars. No need to overthink this one, as we got two defenses that can't stop anything right now. Jacksonville has allowed at least 28 points in each of their last 4 games, giving up 40+ twice during this stretch. Oakland hasn't been much better, allowing 34 or more in each of their last 3 games. BET THE OVER 46! 

15* BRONCOS/CHIEFS NFL SHARP WINNER on Broncos vs Chiefs under 45½ -114

My money is on the UNDER 45.5 in Sunday's NFL action between AFC West rivals Kansas City and Denver. As good as the Chiefs are offensively, they don't figure to light up the scoreboard in this one. That's because the game will be played in a snow storm. I also think last week's offensive outburst by Denver was a fluke, as they simply caught the Texans in a really flat spot after their big prime time win over New England. Not to mention this KC defense has really improved as the season has went along. BET THE UNDER 45.5! 

20* GIANTS/EAGLES NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Giants vs Eagles under 45 -110

My money is on the UNDER 45 between the Giants and Eagles on Monday Night Football. This might seem like a low total given the struggles New York's defense has had this season, but I think we are going to get a big effort from the G-men defense in this one, as they would love nothing more than to add to the Eagles struggles. You also have to take into account the poor conditions expected for this game. It's going to rain all afternoon and likely throughout the game, plus there will be some side wind at close to 15 mph. BET THE UNDER 45! 

15* SEAHAWKS/RAMS NFL SHARP WINNER on Rams +1 -105

My money is on the Rams to cash in a win and cover at home against the Seahawks. I just feel like the price here is too good to pass up with LA at home. Rams are not as bad as what people think and I was really impressed with how this team bounced back last week in their blowout win at Arizona off that ugly showing against the Ravens on MNF the week before. SEahawks are also not as good as their 10-2 record. Seattle has been very fortunate in close games and winning on the road inside the division is a real challenge for these NFC West teams. BET THE RAMS +1! 

20* CHARGERS/JAGUARS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Chargers vs Jaguars under 43 -109

My money is on the UNDER 43 in Sunday's NFL action between the Chargers and Jaguars. I just think the total here is set too high with how these teams are struggling to score, especially Jacksonville, who has scored just 46 points in their last 4 games combined. UNDER is 8-1 in the Jags last 9 at home off a loss and 23-9 in the Charges last 32 after the first month of the season. TAKE THE UNDER 43! 

20* COWBOYS/BEARS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Cowboys vs Bears over 42½ -110

My money is on the OVER 42.5 between Dallas and Chicago on Thursday Night Football. Cowboys have one of the best offenses in the league and I think they are going to surprise some people with how well they move the ball against what's perceived to be a great Bears defense. Note that Chicago's run defense has really fallen off since they lost defensive tackle Akiem Hicks and when Dallas can run it opens up everything for them. Mitch Trubisky has been a liability, but has played better of late and the Cowboys just seem to let inferior teams move the ball on them. BET THE OVER 42.5! 

20* RAMS/CARDINALS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Rams vs Cardinals over 47 -110

My money is on the OVER 47 in Sunday's NFC West clash between the Rams and Cardinals. Arizona is the perfect opponent for LA to get that offense back on track. Cardinals have allowed at least 21 points in every game they have played and are allowing 30.6 ppg at home. Rams have allowed 25 ppg in division games and the Cardinals have the passing game to exploit their weak secondary. BET THE OVER 47! 

20* BILLS/COWBOYS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Bills vs Cowboys over 46 -109

My money is on the OVER 46 in Thursday's NFL action between the Bills and Cowboys. I'm pretty confident Dallas is going to score early and often, as they are averaging 30.2 ppg at home. I also think Buffalo will be able to move the ball and do enough here to get us over the mark. Keep in mind defenses tend to struggle when playing on just 3-days of rest. BET THE OVER 46! 

20* RAVENS/RAMS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Ravens vs Rams over 46½ -110

20* PANTHERS/SAINTS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Panthers vs Saints under 46½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 46.5 in Sunday's NFC South showdown between the Saints and Panthers. We have seen Carolina's offense go into a major funk over the last two weeks and I don't see it getting any better against this top tier Saints defense. It's going to be up to the Panthers defense to keep this close and I think they can do just that. While New Orleans scored 34 last week against Tampa they only had 328 yards of offense and the week before had just 310 against the Falcons. BET THE UNDER 46.5! 

20* CHIEFS/CHARGERS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Chiefs -4 -110

My money is on the Chiefs to cash in a win over the Chargers in Mexico. I think now is the ideal time to buy low on Kansas City. This line is basically saying that the Chiefs would only be about a pick'em on a neutral field. I don't think that's legit at all. LA just doesn't have the offensive fire-power to keep pace with Mahomes and that explosive KC offense. BET THE CHIEFS -4! 

20* CARDINALS/49ERS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Cardinals vs 49ers under 44½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 44.5 in Sunday's NFC West matchup between the 49ers and Cardinals. A lot of people might be thinking the OVER given these two just played a few weeks ago and saw a combined 51 points in a 28-25 49ers win at Arizona. Thing is that was played on Thursday Night Football, so both defenses were at a big disadvantage on just 3 days rest. 49ers defense should be much better this time around and the offense figures to struggle some with George Kittle sidelined. BET THE UNDER 44.5

20* STEELERS/BROWNS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Steelers vs Browns over 40 -110

My money is on the OVER 40 in Thursday's NFL action that has the Browns hosting the Steelers. Most will look to take the UNDER here, as this looks like a matchup of two bad offensive teams against two solid defensive teams. Thing is, these Thursday games are a lot harder on the defenses and are almost always see more points than expected. Really doesn't take a lot to get to 41 points. BET THE OVER 40! 

20* DOLPHINS/COLTS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Dolphins +12½ -113

My money is on the Dolphins to cash in a cover here as a double-digit dog at the Colts. Even after beating the Jets 26-18 as a 3.5-point dog for their first win of the season, the public is still not going to want anything to do with this team. Thing is, Miami has been quietly getting better with each week and there's just no way the Colts should be laying double-digits here with starting quarterback Jacoby Brissett out for this game. BET THE DOLPHINS +12.5! 

20* VIKINGS/CHIEFS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Vikings vs Chiefs over 47 -110

My money is on the OVER 47 in Sunday's showdown between the Chiefs and Vikings. No Mahomes takes this matchup down a notch, but I was impressed with how the KC offense played behind Matt Moore in last week's 31-24 loss to GB. There's so many weapons for Moore to work with and while the Vikings defense is good, I think the speed of KC will cause problems. As for the Chiefs defense, it's better than last year, but still a work in progress. I think both teams could reach 30 today. BET THE OVER 47! 

20* DOLPHINS/STEELERS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Dolphins vs Steelers over 42½ -110

My money is on the OVER 42.5 on Monday Night Football. The only team the Dolphins have kept under 30 points this season is the Redskins, so we should see plenty of offensive fire-works from the Steelers offense in this one. I'm confident the Dolphins will be able to chip in enough to push us well past the number here. BET THE OVER 42.5!

20* BROWNS/PATRIOTS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Browns vs Patriots under 44½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 44.5 in Sunday's big showdown between the Browns and Patriots. Cleveland's offense has struggled to do a lot against decent defenses. They scored just 13 against the Titans, 13 against the Rams and a mere 3-points against the 49ers. New England might just have the best defense in the NFL. Browns are off a bye and while I don't think they can completely shutdown Brady and the Pats offense, I think they can keep them from going off and thus keep this under the number. BET THE UNDER 44.5! 

15* EAGLES/BILLS NFL SHARP WINNER on Eagles vs Bills under 42 -110

My money is on the UNDER 42 in Sunday's NFL action between the Eagles and Bills. Any time Buffalo is involved the UNDER is a smart play. Bills have a pretty anemic offense (20.2) ppg, but they do run the ball effectively (136 ypg), which allows them to eat up clock and keep the opposing offense off the field. They also have an elite defense that is giving up just 15.2 ppg. Eagles are broken right now and just scored a mere 10-points at Dallas last time out. BET THE UNDER 42! 

20* PATRIOTS/JETS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Jets +10 -115

My money is on the Jets to cash in an easy cover here as a double-digit dog at home against the Patriots on Monday Night Football. I think we are getting a price on New York because of their record, but this is clearly a different team with Sam Darnold at quarterback. Patriots are 6-0, but the schedule has been very favorable to this point. NE couldn't run the ball when these two met up in Week 3 and Brady will be without several key option in the passing game because of injury. Jets are more than capable of winning this game outright. BET NEW YORK +10! 

20* JAGUARS/BENGALS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Jaguars vs Bengals under 44½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 44.5. The Jaguars have a great defense and are limited offensively. Bengals aren't very good on either side. Jacksonville's offense has only put up 19.5 ppg and Cincinnati comes in even worse at 16.2 ppg. BET THE UNDER 44.5! 

20* LIONS/PACKERS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Lions +4 -110

My money is on the Lions to cash in an easy cover here as a 4-point road dog against the Packers on Monday Night Football. No one wants to give this Detroit team any love and yet the books are begging the pubic to take Aaron Rodgers and the Packers here as a small home favorite. I just think the Lions defense can make things hard on Green Bay's offense and maybe win this game outright. BET THE LIONS +4! 

20* SEAHAWKS/BROWNS NFL WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Seahawks vs Browns over 46 -110

My money is on the OVER 46 in Sunday's NFL action between the Seahawks and Browns. I think people are assuming Seattle's defense will be able to keep Cleveland's offense in check after watching the Browns score just 3 points against the 49ers on MNF. I think that's a mistake. This is not your same Seattle defense from years past. The Seahawks run defense is strong, but they are giving up a lot of big plays in the air. We saw Cleveland put up 40 the week before against a Ravens defense that I think is very similar to Seattle. These two should easily hit 50. BET THE OVER 46!
