NFL Predictions: Giants at Redskins Odds and Betting Picks
by Trevor Wenham - 11/29/2012

Eli Manning and company continue their Super Bowl defense as they travel to Washington to play the future of the NFC East — Robert Griffin III and his Redskins. The game has far more in the way of playoff implications than may have seemed likely a month ago. The Giants have dropped two of their last three, and the Redskins have won two in a row, so the lead for the Giants in the NFC East sits at just two games.

Monday Night Football Odds: Bears at 49ers Predictions and NFL Picks
by T.O. Whenham - 11/17/2012

This should be a showdown of two of the defensive elite in the NFL. Both of these teams recently have looked like legitimate Super Bowl contenders. Instead, though, the Monday Night showdown between the Bears and the 49ers has unfortunately morphed into the “Concussion Bowl”.

Monday Night Football Odds: Chiefs at Steelers Predictions and NFL Picks
by T.O. Whenham - 11/8/2012

Normally when I preview games I look at both sides, identify the strengths and weaknesses, see how they match up and then make an educated assessment of how things could turn out. That’s not going to work here. The Steelers have some issues and haven’t exactly been overwhelming this year, but compared to the Chiefs they are the best team in the world. Kansas City is a total and utter mess right now, and there is absolutely nothing about them to be particularly positive about. It is a franchise totally without direction and focus, and it’s only going to get worse.

Weekly Philadelphia Eagles Betting Picks: Week 9 vs. Saints
by Dave Schwab - 10/31/2012

The Philadelphia Eagles will look to snap a three-game losing streak this Monday night when they invade the Superdome to square off against the struggling New Orleans Saints. This NFC tilt is slated to get underway at 8:30 p.m. (EST) and it will be broadcast nationally on ESPN.

Monday Night Football Picks: 49ers at Cardinals Odds and NFL Predictions
by T.O. Whenham - 10/25/2012

This is a more significant game for the landscape of the NFC West than pretty much everyone would have guessed when it first popped up on the schedule. The Niners were supposed to be the class of the division, with the Cardinals far behind. Yet the winner of this one is guaranteed at least a share of first place at the end of the night. If San Francisco wins, that lead will be comfortable.

Monday Night Football Odds: Lions at Bears Betting Predictions and NFL Picks
by T.O. Whenham - 10/18/2012

If you had asked people to predict what the NFC North would look like after six weeks before the season started, I suspect you would have gotten very few correct answers. The odd person may have guessed that the Bears would be alone in first place, but few would have guessed that the Vikings would be their closest rival, that the Packers would be at just .500, or that the Lions would be in last and, until last week, struggling. Strange times.

Monday Night Football Predictions: Broncos at Chargers Odds and Betting Picks
by T.O. Whenham - 10/11/2012

No game is the first half of the season is truly and completely crucial — there is still time to overcome any setback. This game is as close as it gets to a must-win in Week 6, though. If the Chargers win they’ll be two games up, and they will have the advantage in the tiebreaker over the Broncos so far as well. That’s a huge advantage.

Monday Night Football Picks: Texans at Jets Odds and Betting Predictions
by T.O. Whenham - 10/4/2012

Before the season when you looked at this game you probably saw a potential gem. Two teams on the rise, expected to be fighting for their division titles, and playing each other as elite members of the AFC. It hasn’t quite turned out that way.

Monday Night Football Predictions: Bears at Cowboys Odds and NFL Picks
by T.O. Whenham - 9/28/2012

It’s early in the season, but the stakes are very high in this Monday night contest. Both teams are at 2-1, so the winner will be, at the very least, tied for the lead in their division. For the Bears a win would be even sweeter because it would guarantee to keep them at least a game ahead of Detroit and Green Bay — the two strongest contenders in the NFC North.

Monday Night Football Predictions: Packers at Seahawks Odds and Betting Picks
by T.O. Whenham - 9/19/2012

When this game first showed up on the NFL schedule for this year the storyline was obvious. This was going to be the game that Matt Flynn led his new team against his old one, just like Matt Hasselbeck had done so many years ago. That was derailed, of course, when Flynn couldn’t win the starting job over rookie Russell Wilson.

Monday Night Football Predictions: Broncos at Falcons Odds and NFL Picks
by T.O. Whenham - 9/13/2012

“Monday Night Football” heads to Georgia this week, but the public isn’t going to be focused on the Falcons despite their strong start to the season in a 40-24 win at Kansas City. It’s all about one man here, the one man who the betting public loves more than all others — Denver QB Peyton Manning.

Monday Night Football Picks: Chargers at Raiders Odds and Predictions
by T.O. Whenham - 9/6/2012

There was a time when this was a great rivalry full of all the ingredients you need — intensity, hatred, excitement, relevance and the rest. While the fans of both teams still routinely get insanely fired up for it, it has been a long while since both teams have been good enough (at the same time) to care about the showdowns.

Monday Night Football Picks: Falcons at Saints Betting Odds
by Alan Matthews - 12/20/2011

It’s the final “Monday Night Football” game of the season and I can guarantee you more offense in probably just the first quarter of this game than in the entire four quarters of last Monday’s twice-delayed Pittsburgh at San Francisco slugfest.

Monday Night Football Predictions: Steelers at 49ers NFL Odds
by Alan Matthews - 12/15/2011

After being subjected to mostly horrendous matchups on “Monday Night Football” this season, we get a doozy in Week 15 as Pittsburgh (10-3) visits San Francisco (10-3) in a possible Super Bowl preview. In fact, this is only the fourth time in MNF history that two teams have faced off with 10 victories and a winning percentage of at least .750 – ironically the Niners have been in all of them, with the last coming in 1997.

Monday Night Football Predictions: Rams at Seahawks Odds and NFL Picks
by Alan Matthews - 12/7/2011

You know how I have been moaning all year about how the Monday Night Football schedule has been atrocious almost the entire season? Well, I have good news and bad news for you this week. The bad is that as awful as last week’s Jaguars-Chargers matchup was, at least there were a few big-name stars in that one in San Diego QB Philip Rivers and Jacksonville RB Maurice Jones-Drew.

Monday Night Football Picks: Chargers at Jaguars Odds and Betting Predictions
by Alan Matthews - 12/1/2011

This coming Monday night, I recommend you watch a college basketball game – although no ranked teams play – or perhaps Bruins-Penguins in a possible Eastern Conference Finals preview in the NHL. Maybe tune-up your car or finish your Christmas shopping, or even watch some chick-flick romantic comedy to make your wife or significant other happy.

Monday Night Football Predictions: Giants at Saints NFL Odds
by Alan Matthews - 11/23/2011

The G-Men (6-4) have a tendency to go into the tank in the second half of the season under Tom Coughlin – Super Bowl season aside. And has that slide already begun? New York is on a two-game losing streak, falling in San Francisco two weeks ago in which the Giants played pretty well but then mostly getting manhandled last Sunday at home by the Eagles, which essentially kept Philly’s season alive and allowed Dallas to tie the Giants for first in the NFC East.

Monday Night Football Predictions: Chiefs at Patriots Odds and NFL picks
by Alan Matthews - 11/18/2011

It looks like the biggest mismatch of Week 11 in the NFL on “Monday Night Football” when the New England Patriots (6-3) host the New England Patriots Lite, otherwise known as the Kansas City Chiefs (4-5). Perhaps no two teams have more ties than these two clubs.

Monday Night Football Predictions: Vikings at Packers Odds and Picks
by Alan Matthews - 11/11/2011

I hope you enjoyed the exciting previous two weeks of “Monday Night Football” – Chiefs-Chargers and Bears-Eagles both going down to the final minute – because we are back to what on the surface looks like another dog game, this between the Minnesota Vikings and Green Bay Packers.

Monday Night Football Predictions: Bears at Eagles Odds and NFL Betting Picks
by Alan Matthews - 11/4/2011

On paper, Monday night’s game between the Chicago Bears and Philadelphia Eagles looks rather mediocre: a 4-3 Chicago team that has no hope of repeating as NFC North champs thanks to the Packers, and a 3-4 Eagles team that is in a three-way tie for last in the NFC East (a tad misleading), two games behind the New York Giants.
