Odds and Best Bets for the NFL’s Last Undefeated Team
by Mike Allen - 8/23/2024
We get things started in less than two weeks with a banger of a kickoff game. In a rematch of the AFC Championship game, the winners of Super Bowl LVIII, the Kansas City Chiefs, play host to the Baltimore Ravens. As you might have guessed, this one is lined closely with the home Chiefs listed as a 3-point favorite.
2024 Philadelphia Eagles Predictions with Odds to Win the Super Bowl
by Ryan Cobbett - 8/22/2024
Last season the Philadelphia Eagles finished second in the NFC East division with an 11-6 record, one game shy of the Cowboys. They finished the season on a 1-5 stretch which catapulted Dallas into the top spot in the division. Despite being five games over .500, the Eagles finished the year with a mere +5-point differential, indicating some luck in their games. That luck ran out when they met Tampa Bay in the first round of the playoffs, where they lost, 32-9.
2024 Dallas Cowboys Predictions with Odds to Win the Super Bowl
by Ryan Cobbett - 8/21/2024
The Dallas Cowboys started the 2023 season off on an incredible note, going 2-0 with a combined score of 70-10 and went on to finish 12-5 and win the NFC East division. They did struggle on the road, with all five regular season losses coming away from AT&T Stadium. Dallas would finish with a road record of 4-5, with a +26-point differential, while they finished 8-0 at home. Unfortunately for Cowboys fans, their season wound up ending on home turf after being, surprisingly, dominated by the Green Bay Packers, losing by double digits and suffering a first-round exit.
2024 Seattle Seahawks Predictions with Odds to Win the Super Bowl
by Ryan Cobbett - 8/21/2024
Last season, the Seattle Seahawks collapsed down the stretch and failed to reach the postseason. After starting the year 5-2, the Seahawks would close 4-6 in their final 10 games to finish 9-8. Eleven of Seattle’s games were one possession games, where they went 7-4. They struggled within the division, going 2-4, with both wins coming against the NFC West basement dweller Arizona Cardinals.
Best Bets for NFL Teams’ Record After 5 Games
by Mike Allen - 8/20/2024
The start of the 2024 NFL Regular Season is just over two weeks away. I don't know about you, but I am getting quite anxious. Thankfully, we have some funky futures bets to keep us busy until then. I want to share with you guys some of the best bets I found for predicting an NFL team’s record through the first five games. I went into this thinking this would just be something fun. However, I came out of it with a ton of value.
NFL Player Performance Props: Best Bets and Predictions
by Mike Allen - 8/19/2024
Week 2 of the 2024 NFL Preseason is now behind us, and I have to be honest and admit we haven't learned a great deal so far. A few players, including Minnesota Vikings rookie quarterback J.J. McCarthy, have already gone down for the year with injuries. Some first-year stars have shown flashes of greatness. The hookup between Bears rookies, when Caleb Williams dropped a 45-yard dime across his body to Rome Odunze on the sideline, was the best-looking play I've seen this preseason.
2024 San Francisco 49ers Predictions with Odds to Win the Super Bowl
by Ryan Cobbett - 8/13/2024
The 49ers had an incredible season a year ago, finishing as the league’s runner up. The 49ers went 12-5 during the regular season, with two winning streaks of five or more. Of their five losses, the biggest loss was a 14-point loss to the Bengals. However, the other four losses were by a combined 16 points. On the flip side, only one of their 12 regular season wins was a one possession game. In the playoffs, all three of their games were decided by three points, with wins over the Packers and Lions and then a 25-22 overtime loss in the Super Bowl against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Which NFL Teams will make the Playoffs? Odds and Best Bets
by Mike Allen - 8/12/2024
It's that time of year again, guys. The 2024 NFL Preseason is barely underway, and here we are, predicting which teams will qualify for the postseason. Some would say we are getting ahead of ourselves. However, I would argue that the value in our best bets will never be better. After the New Orleans Saints get off to a 1-6 start and head coach Dennis Allen is deservedly fired, you won't be able to find any affordable -140s lying around. What if the 4th place-projected Minnesota Vikings get off to a hot start? Sometimes, it's better to wait and, sometimes not.
NFL Worst Team in 2024: Odds and Expert Betting Predictions
by Mike Allen - 8/9/2024
NFL futures bets are a lot of fun. Most of them are going to last you for the entire season. For most of us, yes, we are into this to win money, but if we break even over time and the bets make sports more interesting and exciting, it's still a win. With that said, most of the articles you read and that we write are about the best teams. And if you watch television, you'll probably hear the same points made over and over. Everybody loves you when you are winning, but who cares about the loser, the biggest loser?
2024 Los Angeles Rams Predictions with Odds to Win the Super Bowl
by Ryan Cobbett - 8/8/2024
The Los Angeles Rams had an incredible end to their 2023 regular season, as they went on to win seven of their last eight games to earn themselves a spot in the playoffs. Unfortunately, they fell to the Lions 24-23, ending their season. It was a tale of two halves for the offense as they averaged just 19.8 PPG through their first nine games but averaged 28.3 PPG in their final eight games.
2024 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Odds and Expert Betting Predictions
by Mike Allen - 8/8/2024
The 2024 NFL Draft had an incredible quarterback class, highlighted by current Chicago Bears projected Week 1 starting quarterback Caleb Williams. As you can see from the betting odds, he is the overwhelming betting favorite to win the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year (OROY). I was impressed by Williams from his days at USC. It was hard to get an idea of how good he really is playing in the Pac-12.
NFL Division Exact Finishing Position Odds and Best Bets
by Mike Allen - 8/8/2024
For me, August has always been one of, if not the, fastest month of the year. Growing up, we always wished for an Indian Summer, an endless season. The more I think about that, though, I realize we would get tired of the heat, and more importantly, the NFL regular season, playoffs, and the Super Bowl would never come. I don't want to live on that earth. Thankfully, for most of us, the weather is starting to cool off, and we already have one preseason game in the books. Week 1 of the regular season is now just four weeks away.
2024 Arizona Cardinals Predictions with Odds to Win the Super Bowl
by Ryan Cobbett - 8/7/2024
The Arizona Cardinals posted the second worst record in the NFL last season, going 4-13. There were struggles on both sides of the ball, but the offense in particular was incredibly inconsistent and eclipsed the 30-point mark in just one game. They were without Kyler Murray for the first half of the season and were 1-8 before his return.
2024 NFL Division Winner Odds and Best Bets
by Mike Allen - 8/6/2024
We are about a week into August, and you know what that means. It's time to predict the Super Bowl. Well, not quite. We just did that one. Today, I wanted to share with you guys some betting odds I found, as well as our best bets for NFL division winners. As you might expect, some of the usual suspects have prices that are juiced a bit.
2024 Minnesota Vikings Predictions with Odds to Win the Super Bowl
by Ryan Cobbett - 8/5/2024
The Vikings season in 2023 was derailed when Kirk Cousins got injured. Minnesota started slow by dropping three out of their first four games but quickly changed the tide by winning three straight before Cousins went down for the season. Josh Dobbs was brought in to replace him. And though he did win the next two games (to extend the streak to five), he and Nick Mullens failed to finish the season strong.
2024 Green Bay Packers Predictions with Odds to Win the Super Bowl
by Ryan Cobbett - 8/2/2024
The Packers broke into the playoff scene last season after a 9-8 regular season and went into Dallas and stunned the Cowboys by knocking off the NFC East Champion, 48-32. They would eventually fall in the next round to the NFC representative San Francisco 49ers. However, this Packers team is one of the youngest in the NFL. And now they have some playoff experience under their belt.
2024 Detroit Lions Predictions with Odds to Win the Super Bowl
by Ryan Cobbett - 8/1/2024
The Detroit Lions were one of the best stories in the NFL from a season ago, as they went on to post a 12-5 record in the regular season before falling just three points short of a Super Bowl appearance. The Lions went 4-2 in division play, sweeping the Vikings while splitting with the Bears and Packers. This team has accelerated their rebuild and are now primed to be competing for the years to come.

First NFL Head Coach to be Fired: Odds and Expert Betting Predictions
by Mike Allen - 7/31/2024
At the time of this writing, we are yet to see one snap taken in the 2024 NFL Preseason, yet there are heads on the chopping block, pun intended. Several head coaches in the NFL could have been fired in the offseason but were spared. The New Orleans Saints' Dennis Allen and Robert Saleh of the New York Jets are two of those names.
2024 Chicago Bears Predictions with Odds to Win the Super Bowl
by Ryan Cobbett - 7/31/2024
There were little expectations for the Bears to be good last season, and they weren’t. After finishing 7-10 on the year, they finished in last place in the NFC North division. Despite falling three games below .500, they managed to finish with just a -19-point differential on the season. Quarterback play was the glaring issue, as Justin Fields and Tyson Bagent were just not going to take this team to the playoffs.
