by Robert Ferringo - 8/26/2022

“Time is a flat circle.” That’s a quote from Rust Cohle, a nihilistic cop in the HBO drama “True Detective”. The line breathes life into Friedrich Nietzsche’s doctrine of eternal recurrence, a concept that can be loosely defined by the idea that all existence and energy have been, are, and will continue to occur an infinite number of times across all time and space. Over and over.

by Sean Barnard - 8/26/2022

NFL training camps have kicked off, and expectations are beginning to be set for the 2022 season. One division that holds an especially interesting outlook is the NFC South. There is much more falloff in the NFC South compared to most NFL divisions. It would take a surprise for a team to upset the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who are the second favorite to win the Super Bowl this season.

AFC West Win Total Odds and Predictions
by Devon Rymarchuk - 8/25/2022

Four playoff teams? In the most loaded division in the NFL, the AFC West will be full of excitement. The sad part is that it’s almost guaranteed that one fan base is going to end the season greatly disappointed. With the Kansas City Chiefs dominating the division during the Patrick Mahomes era, this might be the first year that a bit of confidence is lost with their offseason. Losing the best receiver in the division in Tyreek Hill will hurt the NFL’s most potent offense of the past four seasons.

Caesars Sportsbook NFL Futures Bettors Pile on the Buffalo Bills
by Dave Schwab - 5/16/2022

The goal of any sportsbook is to balance out the bets on either side of a matchup. The books are looking to make their money on the 10 % juice charged on the losing side. When it comes to taking in action on futures bets with a number of different possible outcomes, the money bet tends to balance itself out on its own.

by Devon Rymarchuk - 1/25/2022

Last weekend was quite possibly the most exciting Divisional Round of the playoffs the NFL has ever showcased. All four games were within one score, and the underdog won three out of the four games played. Both Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady got beat out of the playoffs last weekend, marking the first time in 12 years neither will be playing for a conference title.

The Wild Card Round of the playoffs was rather uneventful. There were only two games within one possession, which included the Las Vegas Raiders and the Cincinnati Bengals.

The 2021-22 NFL season ended in dramatic fashion as possibly the game of the year decided the final two playoff positions in the AFC, featuring the Los Angeles Chargers and Las Vegas Raiders. The Raiders, despite an incredible amount of controversy this year, have landed themselves a playoff position, for the first since time since 2002. It has been such an unpredictable season in the NFL with covid protocols, young players emerging as superstars, and veteran quarterbacks refusing to give up their reign on the league.

Basic Strategy Teasers: Best Week 17 NFL Betting Options
by Chris Vasile - 12/29/2021

There is a saying amongst those in the handicapping industry that parlays and teasers for suckers. If I’m being honest, I would partially agree with that statement. However, the part I disagree with is when it comes to teasers. Teasers in football work like a charm if you know which spreads to look for and utilize great patience and bankroll management. Through 16 weeks of National Football League action, I’ve given you 14 teasers (two weeks there were no lines that fit our Basic Strategy Teasers parameters).

NFL Betting Predictions: Week 17 Opening Line Report and Picks
by Chris Vasile - 12/27/2021

When leagues talk about growing the game in certain markets, they mean that they want to gain new fans in markets that would not willingly accept American Football as a sport they can watch and cheer for on a consistent basis. Well, let me tell you something. That’s all fine and dandy, I would tell you this right now – if a new fan turned on any NFL game this week, it would have been shut off within five minutes. COVID messed everything up, and the NFL has done a very poor job of helping teams overcome the issue.

It’s imperative to stay up to date with the ins and outs as we approach the Thursday night game between San Francisco and Tennessee and then into the weekend slate.
