Another tough week for The Sport Guy’s NFL picks. His best bets came out with 1-3 record, with the lone win coming on Jaguars’ improbably outright win at Baltimore as a +5.5 dog. The other 3 losses were all blown out losses that never had a chance (maybe Seattle had a chance but they were…
Dallas allowed the third most touchdowns to running backs this season, couple that with Lamar Miller’s break out season, this has the recipe for a big fantasy week for Miller. Ever since Miami changed their head coach, the new regime has been featuring Miller more often in both the rushing and passing game. You will…
Larry Fitzgerald just came off a monstrous week, caught 10 passes on 15 targets for 130 yards. Dude’s got 836 yards and 7 touchdowns through 9 games! Arizona has been a team on fire this season, and it all feeds off their passing game. It should be a good game against Cincinnati, but even T.J….
The young gunslinger, Derek Carr, has taken the league by storm. Together with the new stud rookie receiver Amari Cooper, the AC/DC connection has revamps the Raiders offense this year. Going up against a Lions defense that gave up huge numbers in several games this year, including 45 points to Arizona and 42 points to…
The Jets are going up against a banged up Houston Texans team, who lost their starting quarterback Brian Hoyer to a concussion, and had to finish the game with T.J. Yates on Monday Night Football. Even though the Texans pulled off the upset win at Cincinnati, they won with their defense, the offense had trouble…
The forgotten superstar, Jimmy Graham, has had a tough year under Pete Carroll’s system. Last week, Graham had 8 targets but only 3 catches for 41 yards, but he had 2 drops and 1 ball ripped out of his hands in the endzone, so he had a chance to have a breakout game there. Seattle…
With full disrespect to Kamar “Don’t Call me Clay” Aiken, when you win a million dollars with Kamar Aiken on your Draft Kings fantasy team, you know it was a wacky week in fantasy football this week. The usual suspects did not put up a show this week. With just 232.36 points this week, team…
Good news from the week 9 picks was that the top 2 consensus picks both won, but the pathetic news is that the consensus ended up going 2-4 for the week. Eagles and Bears both covered in close games, with both games decided in the final minutes of the game. We should mention that the leader of…
Chris Berman is back with his 2 minute drill, here are his week 10 picks. Since Berman no longer picks against the spread, here are its contrived NFL picks based on his score predictions. [loser] Cardinals at Seahawks (-3) – [loser] (under 44.5) – get real, I think we’ll stick with Cousin Sal’s picks and Colin’s Blazing five…
Update: here’s Colin’s Week 11 Blazing Five Picks Colin continued his mediocre selections in his NFL week 9 picks with a 3-2 record. At the end of the day, a winning record is always good. Colin was correct on his Eagles, Jaguars, and Giants selections, while losing the Redskins and Steelers. The truth is Colin should…
Update: check here for Cousin Sal’s Week 11 picks… The sky is falling! Cousin Sal suffered his first losing week since week 6, and also lost his 3rd best bet of the year. The Steelers really blew this game, they had a 14 point lead late in the 4th quarter, and even after blowing the…
Bill Simmons went 2-1 on his best bets and 7-6 overall in his week 9 NFL picks. Way to bounce back from the 2-9-1 debacle in week 8. If you only take his best bets, he actually has been doing very well with 15-8-2 record, making that a solid 65% winning percentage. As usual, Simmons…
Deangelo Williams took full advantage the starting running back spot vacated by Le’veon Bell’s season ending injury. Williams scored the second highest points amongst all players last week, and he could have had an even bigger day if he didn’t run out of bounds on his last carry at the half foot line. The Browns…
A.J. Green is quietly on pace for a 100 catch season. If you’re looking for a solid week 10 wide receiver to start this week in Draft Kings or Fanduel, take a shot with Green. According to DVOA rankings, the Texans are 26th in the league in total defense. The undefeated Bengals will be featured…
The two best quarterbacks in the league against two of the worst pass defenses in the league this year. You cannot go wrong with either of these options in week 10 to start. Tommy Terrific is going up against a Giants team that just got torched by Brees for 7 touchdowns in one single game!…
The Broncos defense had one off week last week (by their elite standards), but even with the loss, Broncos are still the top ranked defense in the league. In week 10, they will be going up against a Jamaal-Charles-less Kansas City offense. Despite the 45pt explosion last game against Detroit, the KC total offense is…
If you’re looking for the best starting tight end option for week 10, take a look at Jordan Reed. He has scored 3 touchdowns in the last 2 games, and has developed into Kirk Cousin’s security Blanket. The Redskins are going up against the soft Saints defense that is ranked last in the NFL in…
Pretty much every top lineups this week for the Draftkings Millionaire Maker had Antonio Brown in their lineup. King Antonio hooked up often with Big Ben this week against the Raiders, going for 17 catches and 284 yards, which is good for 49.6 fantasy points. Too bad Big Ben suffered an injury that kept him…
Last week, we took the top 25 players in the Westgate Contest leaderboard and aggregated their top picks. How did these experts do last week? The top 3 most popular picks lost, but they did win 2 of the top 5. Onto this week’s picks, we took the top 5 picks from the top 1%…
Pretty sure Colin started his Blazing Five segment by saying week 8 would be his best week ever and he LOVED those picks. Unfortunately, it didn’t turn out too well. It wasn’t a complete disaster, Colin did go 2-3 last week. But for most people that followed his picks, they probably pushed the Giants game,…
