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.

Monday Night Football Picks: Chargers at Chiefs NFL Odds and Predictions
by Alan Matthews - 10/27/2011

A few weeks ago, this week’s Monday night game between the San Diego Chargers (4-2) and Kansas City Chiefs (3-3) looked like the latest lame offering on “Monday Night Football” – I mean, did you really watch in entirety this past Monday’s night ugly Ravens-Jaguars 12-7 “shootout”?

Monday Night Football Picks: Ravens at Jaguars Odds and Predictions
by Alan Matthews - 10/21/2011

It’s really a shame that ESPN already re-upped with the NFL to keep “Monday Night Football” on the network through 2021, because if I’m the ESPN executive in charge of that deal beforehand, I am insisting that the network get some sort of flex scheduling like NBC does for the Sunday night game late in the season.

Monday Night Football Predictions: Dolphins at Jets Odds
by Alan Matthews - 10/14/2011

Well, it looks like another stinker on “Monday Night Football” this week, as MNF features its third winless team of the year (not counting Week 1) in the “Dear God hopefully we lose out and get to draft Andrew Luck” Miami Dolphins at a skidding New York Jets team that probably faces a must-win if they hope to get to the Super Bowl that Rex Ryan promised before the season.

Monday Night Football Predictions: Bears at Lions Odds and Betting Picks
by Alan Matthews - 10/7/2011

It’s arguably the biggest divisional game for the Detroit Lions since they moved into Ford Field in 2002 and it’s also the first time the Lions have hosted a Monday night game in that stadium (their last was in 2001 in the Silverdome), so it should be quite a boisterous crowd for “Monday Night Football” this week when Detroit hosts Chicago in an NFC North tilt. Unfortunately for Lions fans watching at home, they won’t get to hear Hank Williams Jr.’s legendary MNF opening!

Monday Night Football Picks: Colts at Bucs Odds and Betting Predictions
by Alan Matthews - 9/29/2011

Think the folks at ESPN are a little envious of their compatriots at NBC right now? I say that because later in the season, NBC is allowed to use a flex schedule to get a better game for its Sunday night telecast. “Monday Night Football” doesn’t get that option at all, and you know MNF would have flexed out the Peyton Manning-less Indianapolis Colts this week. Thankfully, it’s the only Monday Night Football schedule appearance of the season for the club.

Monday Night Football Predictions: Redskins at Cowboys Betting Odds
by Alan Matthews - 9/23/2011

The Cowboys have been probably the most entertaining team to watch through two games in that both of their games have had exciting, last-minute endings. In Week 1 Dallas should have won at the Jets before Tony Romo choked in the clutch with a crucial fumble, then for some reason throwing at Darrelle Revis in the final minute and seeing that get picked off. So a 24-10 lead turned into a 27-24 crushing loss. Dallas had been 246-1-1 when leading by 14 points in the fourth quarter.

Monday Night Football Picks: Rams at Giants NFL Odds and Predictions
by Alan Matthews - 9/15/2011

It’s a big night for the St. Louis Rams as they will appear on Monday Night Football for the first time since 2006 when they visit the Giants in New York’s home opener – it’s the first time the G-Men have hosted a MNF game since 2003 (that doesn’t seem possible, but it’s true). It’s also the Rams’ only road game until Week 6.
