Month: November 2020

The 3-6-1 Philadelphia Eagles will have to be clicking on every cylinder tonight if they want a home victory over the visiting 7-3 Seattle Seahawks. Why Philadelphia’s head coach Doug Pederson is sticking with quarterback Carson Wentz is beyond me. He has a passer rating of only 73.3, leads the league in turnovers with 14 picks, 4 fumbles, and has been sacked a ridiculous 40 times. Not good. Seattle is getting healthy and is expected to have starting running back Chris Carson back tonight after missing a month with a foot sprain. Russell Wilson is having another stellar year, with 30 touchdowns, and has a passer rating of 111.5. The Seahawks have won 6 straight against the Eagles, covering all 6, and are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 trips to Philadelphia.
TONIGHT’S PICK: SEATTLE SEAHAWKS -6.5

The Buffalo Bills are coming off a bye week so they will be healed and well rested when they host the Los Angeles Chargers today at Bills Stadium. The Bills sit atop the AFC East with a 7-3 record and are 4-1 in Orchard Park. The Chargers have just 3 wins with 7 losses and all 3 wins were against the league’s worst: the NY Jets, the Jacksonville Jaguars, and the Cincinnati Bengals. Buffalo is 3-1-1 ATS in their last 5 coming off a bye week and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 as a home favorite. The Chargers have won 4 straight against the Bills but that streak ends today.
TODAY’S PICK: BUFFALO BILLS -4.5

The 6-2 Iowa State Cyclones will look to extend their 3-game winning streak when they take on the 5-2 Texas Longhorns today in Austin. During their 3-game run, the Cyclones have outscored their opponents 135-53, including a 45-0 shellacking of Kansas State last week. Texas has also won 3 straight but have not played since November 7th so rust could be an issue. The Cyclones have the best running back in the NCAA, Breece Hall, who will be able to eat up yardage against a Longhorn defense that is allowing an average of 400.9 yards per game. Iowa State is 6-1 in the Big 12 and are currently a 1.5 point dog. Consider the Cyclones.
TODAY’S PICK: IOWA STATE CYCLONES +1.5

The Dallas Cowboys will have two factors going for them today, momentum and revenge, when the host their NFC rival, the Washington Football Team. The Cowboys are coming off an impressive win over the Vikings in Minnesota and will vie to redeem themselves after a 25-3 loss to Washington on October 25th. Washington is winless on the road, at 0-4, Dallas has won 8 of the last 9 meetings with Washington on Thanksgiving Day, and they are 4-0 in their last 4 against the Football Team in the Big D.
TODAY’S PICK: DALLAS COWBOYS M/L

Two of the NFC’s best, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Los Angeles Rams, will square off tonight at Raymond James Stadium. As expected, the Rams are a road dog, currently getting 4 points, but that is a good thing if you are leaning Rams. Los Angeles is the better team overall. They are ranked #1 on defense and #5 on offense while the Bucs are ranked #3 on defense and #15 on offense. The Rams are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 meetings with the Bucs and are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 in Tampa. The Rams formidable defense will be able to pressure Brady and you know what happens when he gets pressured, he buckles.
TONIGHT’S PICK: LOS ANGELES RAMS +4
