It was a tough week for the leaderboard in week 17 of the Circa Million V where the consensus picks and the contest leader Saint31-1 (59-25-1, 70,2%) 59.5 points were 1-4 ATS.

NFL Week 17 Circa and Westgate Las Vegas Football Contest Report
by Christopher G. Shepard - 12/28/2023
Even though I didn’t cover the 2023 Circa Survivor contest, with a winner-take-all prize of $9,267,000, I’d be remiss not to mention that after the Patriots upset the Broncos last week, this contest is down to four of 9267 total entries; Circus Master-2, IndianaJet-4, JaxJags-2, LA Joneser-4 remain. And if you haven’t been following this contest, you’ve missed enough drama to fill a Lifetime movie.

As we enter Week 17 of the 2023 NFL regular season, you may have fallen victim to the parlay fairy. Whether you leave a tooth under your pillow or not, she steals what little profit you did make, and you wake up with more space in your wallet. The parlays are fun to think about, and they are fun to play…until they aren't.

by Spencer Toth - 12/26/2023
The NFL postseason race is heating up, with just 2 weeks to go in the regular season. Six of the 14 playoff spots have been confirmed, with a whopping 18 teams vying for the final 8 playoff berths. The playoff race has never been tighter, and there will be plenty of high stakes football on tap for the final weeks of the season. Last week, we went 1-2 on our picks, bringing us back to .500 on the season.
Best NFL Teaser Bets Week 16: Basic Strategy Teasers
by Mike Allen - 12/21/2023
It’s now Week 16 of the 2023 NFL regular season, and the surprises haven’t been scarce. I hope you are still in the green. Betting the point spread or the point total in the NFL is very challenging. I just wish there was a way that the bettor could manipulate the line in their favor. Even if it was as little as 6 points, we could roll into game day with much more confidence and, in our minds at least, a thicker wallet by the end of the night.
NFL Week 16 Circa and Westgate Las Vegas Football Contest Report
by Christopher G. Shepard - 12/21/2023
Saint31-1 has taken a 3-point lead in the Circa Million V. This entry went 5-0 in Week 15 and has 54.5 points at 54-20-1 (73%) on the season. JJarvis117-1 is the lone entry in second place with 52.5 points and 51-21-3 (70.8%), which puts them a half-point in front of one third-place entry, Rdlown-1, who went 3-2 and notched a 50-21-4 (70.8%) and 52 points. There are four entries tied for fourth, among them is Steve Fezzik entry Fezzic-2 with 51.5 points on the season. Meanwhile, my freefall continues. In a season-long football contest, inconsistency is the hobgoblin of aspiring contest cashers. I went 1-3-1 last week.

The NFL season has entered its final 3 weeks, and it’s now do or die time for the playoff hopefuls. Just 4 of the 14 playoff teams have been confirmed, with a whopping 22 teams still vying for the final 10 playoff spots. Last week, we went 1-2 ATS, bringing our season record to 22-21-2. The Browns started things off with a nervy win and cover in Cleveland, but a pair of NFC East contenders both lost outright, with the Cowboys and Eagles falling to the Bills and Seahawks, respectively. Before getting into a tantalizing Week 16 slate, here are the biggest storylines from an eventful Week 15.

by Mike Allen - 12/13/2023
It is now Week 15 in the NFL, and picking games against the spread seems about as difficult as ever. Last week was a huge week for underdogs. Two of those dogs helped us win our basic strategy teaser bet of the week. We had the Denver Broncos and the Buffalo Bills each at (+8.5) points. And as you might have seen, they both won outright. Hey, Travis Kelce's lateral that was called back wouldn't even have beaten us.
2023 NFL Coach of the Year Predictions and Betting Odds
by Mike Allen - 12/13/2023
We are entering Week 15 of the 2023 NFL regular season, and in my opinion, the race for Coach of the Year is wide open. Maybe you have heard me gripe about this award before. It should be called the best new coach, not the best coach. It’s a bit like the Lebron James MVP thing. There are several years he was the most valuable player in the league, but it would be boring for him to win it year after year.

The Colts went into halftime on level terms, but Jake Browning and the Bengals scored 20 unanswered second half points to take home the victory.

We are coming down the home stretch of the 2023 NFL regular season, and the handicapping of games becomes a bit more complicated. However, if we are diligent, we can make it work for us. As you might have picked up, there are a ton of NFL teams with a quarterback problem…or two. It's about time we begin to see some organizations tank to receive a higher draft pick.
