2023-24 NFL Offensive Player of the Year Award Odds and Predictions
by Matt Zitt - 8/21/2023

Watch out Justin Jefferson (reigning NFL Offensive Player of the Year)! Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase is now the favorite to take home the award in 2023-24. The last four winners of this award have all been skill position players. Three of those four have been wide receivers, with Derrick Henry being the lone running back. He won it in 2020 after terrorizing defenses with 2,027 rushing yards, 17 rushing touchdowns and averaging 5.4 yards per carry.

NFL Records Broken in 2023 Props: Yes or No Predictions
by Mike Allen - 8/20/2023

Here are some betting odds that you don't see every day. It's a first for me. Will we see the first NFL wide receiver ever accumulate 2,000 yards of receptions through the air? How about an NFL quarterback throwing for more than 5,500 yards? How long have each of these records been around, and who set the records?

NFL Longest Winning Streak Predictions: Odds and Totals for 2023
by Mike Allen - 8/18/2023

We are not short on futures and prop bets for the upcoming 2023 NFL season. The betting odds we want to cover today are over/under odds for the longest winning streak for a particular NFL team. For example, the Baltimore Ravens have affordable betting odds of only (-140) to go on a winning streak longer than 3.5 games. I realize this sounds plausible. It looks like the A-side, but we must look at who the Ravens will be playing throughout the year and when.

2023 NFL Teams Stage of Elimination Betting Odds and Predictions
by Mike Allen - 8/17/2023

There are so many futures prop bets available for the quickly approaching NFL season. I'm sure you have a couple of team wins over/under wagers on the books by now. Maybe, you have a play on whether a team makes the playoffs, the conference championship, or the Super Bowl. Those are all fun, and I encourage you to spread the money around this preseason, because most of these wagers will last you the entire year. Another thing to remember is that once the season begins, the vast majority of these betting odds will disappear.

by Mike Allen - 8/17/2023

The 2023 NFL Preseason schedule is finally underway. The months without football seem to last twice as long as those during the season. It works out making the Summers last, but that's about it. I'm sure you guys are as starved for football action as I am, and probably more. We still have to wait, though! The regular season kicks off with a Thursday night game on September 7. That is still about three weeks away.

by Matt Zitt - 8/17/2023

The 2023-24 NFL season is quickly approaching, and it is time to look at some season-long prop bets! There are a ton of props with so much opportunity on a clean board before the real action starts in September. The key is to evaluate and find lines that are too low or too high. In this article, I will be going through some defensive props that I am targeting this season.

2023-24 NFL Defensive Player of the Year Award Odds and Predictions
by Matt Zitt - 8/17/2023

San Francisco 49ers superstar Nick Bosa claimed the Defensive Player of the Year Award last season after posting 18.5 sacks and being a disruptive force for one of the best defensive units in the entire NFL. This year, there are three players whose odds are better than Bosa’s. Micah Parsons, Myles Garrett, and T.J. Watt are three favorites for the coveted award. No surprise the odds board is filled with pass rushers, as eight of the last 10 winners of the award totaled at least 11 sacks on their season.

2023-24 NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award Odds and Predictions
by Matt Zitt - 8/17/2023

The Lions’ Aidan Hutchinson was the leading candidate for the 2022 Defensive Rookie of the Year Award, and had a solid season, finishing with 9.5 sacks and three interceptions. In most years, that would be good enough to seal the deal for DROY. However, Sauce Gardner was too strong. Gardner brought swagger to the Jets’ defense and earned first-team All-Pro honors. An edge defender is once again the favorite in this category for 2023-24, but multiple Lions, another talented Eagle, and a ballhawking Seahawk are all in the mix. We will break down the top players below who could go home with the hardware.

by Mike Allen - 8/15/2023

The 2023 NFL preseason is officially underway. And, like anyone else, we are doing our best not to overthink it. It's good to see the players back on the field playing throw and catch. However, outside of the battles for a starting quarterback position, preseason football only makes me more anxious for Week 1 of the NFL regular season.

2023 Cincinnati Bengals Predictions with Season Win Total Odds
by Robert Ferringo - 8/13/2023

Here is some free, expert gambling advice: don’t ever make a preseason bet on who is going to win the championship in any sport. Especially the NFL. Betting on who is going to win the Super Bowl this year is a waste of money. The odds are completely out of whack with what the actual payouts should be. Let’s use the Cincinnati Bengals as an example, since I think that this is a championship-caliber team.

Training camp has ramped up, and the 2023 NFL season will be here before you know it. That means more and more NFL player props are being released week by week.

We will look at some of the best lines that the sportsbooks have drawn up for the quarterback position for the upcoming NFL season.

Way Too Early 2024 NFL Draft Prop Bet Predictions
by Mike Allen - 8/12/2023

The 2024 NFL Draft is still many months away. I am in no hurry to get there, though. Football, whether it's college or pro, only lasts five months at best. I don't want to just skip over an entire season. Do you? I didn't think so. There are just too many Saturday tailgates at your alma mater.
