Best Bets On This NFL Sunday
As a Michigan fan, we almost had the most electric bye week. Ohio State losing is one of the best feelings. Sorry to my friends who are from Columbus. Penn State pulling off that OT win had me on the edge of my seat. The Nittany Lions and James Franklin are fortunate to escape that and remain undefeated. THEY ARE NOT A #4 TEAM IN THE NATION. You can’t convince me otherwise. November 2 will be a huge deal for Ohio State vs. Penn State.
To continue a quick recap from Saturday, Bama just narrowly escaped a back-to-back loss to a bad team, but South Carolina had terrible two-minute clock management.
Texas rolled over Oklahoma 34-3. One of these teams is handling their SEC debut season much better than the other. There was no burnt orange blood in Dallas yesterday.
#8 Tennessee just escaped Florida with an OT win. 29-26. I still think Tennessee is a quality team.
And my god, what a game it was between #9 Ole Miss and #13 LSU. Another overtime game. LSU pulled it out 29-26, and that’s why I said you NEEDED TO TAKE LSU GETTING 3.5 POINTS AT HOME.
We had Saturday on the calendar for 2 months and it did not disappoint.
Best Bets On NFL Sunday
Let’s look at some of our favorite bets, but before we do that, here’s the full slate of games.
💰️ Texans @ Pats, 1 pm. The Pats are +6.5, and we like that today. The Texans have had a ton of close games this season, and it’s like we think the Pats are going to win, not at all. But the Texans don’t have Nico Collins, and he is by far their most explosive player on offense. If Drake Maye can be responsible with the football in his first start for the Patriots, they can easily cover this spread.
💰️ Browns @ Eagles, 1 pm. The Eagles are favored by 9.5 points. That’s a lot of points for any NFL game, and I don’t think the Eagles have shown that they deserve that. Their offensive line hasn’t done a great job at protecting Jalen Hurts, and even though some weapons are returning, like AJ Brown and DeVonta Smith, after they had full participation in practice this week, I think the Browns will be able to keep this within 2 possessions. If you can find this at +10 for the Browns, you definitely need to grab that.
💰️ Cardinals @ Packers, 1 pm. We’ve got a points total at 47.5 that we love. We have two top 10 offenses that love throwing the ball. There will be some rain in Green Bay but this isn’t a cold December game. I don’t think it’s going to impact offensive efficiency that much. Take the over.
💰️ Best prop bet? Derrick Henry 82.5+ rushing yards. This dude has been a beast the last few weeks. He’ll be facing off against a weak Commanders rushing defense. Henry has shown us he’s capable of breaking the big runs still and he’ll need one of two of those today to easily get over this mark against a defense that allows 130+ rushing yards a game.
💰️ We can look at the same Ravens @ Commanders for another prop bet. Zay Flowers 4.5+ receptions. It’s -122 right now and if Henry is moving the ball well, you can expect Flowers to get a lot of touches. Flowers has had 10 or more targets in 3 games this season and I expect he’ll be a big part of the offense today.
That’s going to be all for an NFL Sunday. Enjoy all the games and get ready for a dope Monday Night Football game where the Bills try to get a big win against a conference who just fired their head coach aka the NY Jets. That’s going to be one awesome Monday Night game.
Cheers!
