Not one, not two, not three… 4.
These are the interceptions that Kirk Cousins threw final Sunday in opposition to the Los Angeles Chargers. Cousins threw two picks within the crimson zone, one on fourth down that was returned for a choose six and one other on Atlanta’s last drive.
Sigh.
As for this weekend, I’ve two faculty soccer bets, two NFL bets, and a moneyline parlay. Remember, this area shouldn’t be the place for one million picks or 5 groups. These will all the time be the video games I like essentially the most.
Let’s go to work.
2024 Record: (33-31, -1.1 models)
No. 5 Georgia in opposition to quantity 2 Texas (-3, U/U 50)
I’ve these groups virtually numerically equal by way of energy score. I’ve Texas at 127 and Georgia at 126.5. So sure, the basket is tempting. The Dawgs are probably the most resilient groups within the nation and Kirby Smart is nice at making changes within the second half. As for the entire, 45 factors have been scored within the final match and that was with seven turnovers. In any case, it appears to me that the ultimate rating is 28-27.
PICK: Georgia (+3) will lose by lower than 3 factors or win outright
SELECTION: Over 50 factors scored by each groups mixed
Hawks @ Vikings (-6, O/U 45.5)
You will not adore it and that is okay. I’ll return to the Falcons pit. Before getting a 1-point win over Arizona, Minnesota left a bunch of mediocre groups hanging round. Joe Flacco and the Colts, Mac Jones and the Jaguars, Will Levis and the Titans, Caleb Williams and the Bears. Meh. This is an efficient redemption level for an Atlanta crew that most individuals cannot abdomen proper now.
PICK: Falcons (+6) will lose by lower than 6 factors or win outright
Invoices (-3.5, U/U 49.5) @ Rams
We did an ideal job this yr taking part in the Rams in the precise locations. Arizona, Chicago, Miami and Philadelphia have taken care of enterprise and I count on Buffalo to do the identical. Los Angeles continues to get by with its previous popularity when the metrics spotlight a mediocre offense and a vastly overrated protection. And please spare me the Bills look-ahead nonsense. There is nothing extra essential to Buffalo than taking part in for a No. 1 seed.
PICK: Bills (-3.5) to win by greater than 3.5 factors
Blazin’ 5: Vikings (-5.5) beat struggling Falcons, Bills (-3.5) remove Rams in Week 14
Invoices (-3.5, U/U 49.5) @ Rams
No. 3 Pen State in opposition to number one Oregon (-3.5, U/U 50.5)
You already know the way I really feel about Buffalo this weekend, and I really feel even higher about Oregon beating Penn State within the Big Ten Championship on Saturday. Last month on “Bear Bets,” I talked about Wheeling Jake Paul ML (-190) vs. Mike Tyson with every part not nailed down. That’s how good I really feel in regards to the Ducks. I respect the chance to wager in opposition to James Franklin within the largest video games. That stated, I’m not messing with the purpose unfold. Just win, honey.
PICK: Oregon ML and Bills ML parlay (+144)
