Dolphins 0 @ Ravens 1 000 000 - X
I wrote that I did not know what to expect from both those teams. This still holds true.

Vikings 33 @ Browns (+9.5) 16 - X
Did not see the game but apparently this Browns cover looked pretty good for a good long while. Oh well.

Falcons (-4.5) 25 @ Jets 20 - OK
The Falcons still aren't the 2016 Falcons, but still managed to cover.

Panthers (+2) 17 @ Bucs 3 - OK

Bears 12 @ Saints (-9) 20 - X
Surprising that Brees threw for almost 300 yards on 80% + efficiency and he still did not throw a TD.

Colts (+11) 23 @ Bengals 24 - OK

Chargers 13@ Patriots 21 (-6.5) - OK

Raiders 14 @ Bills (-2.5) 34 - OK
I think people got way too high on the Raiders after that weird win against the Chiefs. They still aren't a very good team and the Bills are mostly underrated. They're not that far behind the Pats/Chiefs/Steelers trio as far as I'm concerned.

49ers 10 @ Eagles (-13) 33 - OK
Now that Zeke is definitely out for 6 games and we have one of the easiest sleights of games going forward, I firmly believe we should be tops or near the top of the NFC for the playoffs.

Texans 38 @ Seahawks (-5.5) 41 - X
What a ridiculous scoreline.

Cowboys 33 @ Redskins (+2) 19 - X

Steelers 20 @ Lions (+3) 15 - X
That really should have been a cover, if not a win, for the Lions.

Broncos 19 @ Chiefs (-7.0) 29 - OK

This week: 7-6

NFL Lines - Week 8 predictions

Dolphins (+3)  @ Ravens
I honestly don't know what to expect anymore from either those teams. I would never put money on that game.

Vikings @ Browns (+9.5)
Seems a tad too high.

Falcons (-4.5) @ Jets

Panthers (+2) @ Bucs

Bears @ Saints (-9)

Colts (+11) @ Bengals
The Colts aren't good and should definitely fire their head coach. However, the Bengals aren't great either and 11 points seems high.

Chargers @ Patriots (-6.5)
Just low enough. At 7 or more I would have picked the Chargers to cover.

Raiders @ Bills (-2.5)

49ers @ Eagles (-13)
That's really high. I would have never guessed that we'd be favorites by 13 points at any points this season. I mean, yes we're playing great, but we're really flawed in a few aspects of the game. Our QB and our world class D-Line has brought us to 6-1, but I would expect our Pythagorean wins to be at least 15% lower. I can't find it after a quick google search, but Football Outsiders has our total of expecting wins at 5.4. We are good, I'm not denying that, but I need to see more from us to say if we're actually the best team in the NFC, let alone the NFL.

Texans @ Seahawks (-5.5)

Cowboys @ Redskins (+2)
I'm still a believer in the Redskins. I think they are better than the Cowboys and honestly can't believe they are underdogs at home.

Steelers @ Lions (+3)

Broncos @ Chiefs (-7.0)
After a tough loss and a longer rest, my guess is that the Chiefs will come out firing on all cylinders.

Season so far: 44-60-2

NFL Lines - Week 7 results

Chiefs (-3) 30 @ Raiders 31 - X
What a bizarre and unpleasant finish if you were rooting for the Chiefs. I'm not saying the penalties weren't warranted or anything of the sort, but it was frustrating to watch, thinking a team had won twice before seeing that yellow flash on the screen. The Raiders proved more resilient than I had expected. I don't know what that means for their season (they're still 3-4), but it had to be their best game of the season, right?

Buccaneers 27 @ Bills (-3) 30 - PUSH

Cardinals 0 @ Rams (-3.5) 33 - OK
Ouch.

Ravens 16 @ Vikings (-6) 24 - OK

Panthers (-6) 3 @ Bears 17 - X
One surprising result. Even more surprising here is that the two touchdowns were defensive ones and that the winning QB completed 4 passes.

Jaguars 27 @ Colts (+3) 0 - X
Another shutout. Those early games were dreadful.

Saints 26 @ Packers (+5.5) 17 - X

Jets 28 @ Dolphins (-3) 31 - PUSH

Titans (-5.5) 12 @ Browns 9 - X
Hey the Browns covered!

Cowboys 40 @ 49ers (+6) 10 - X

Bengals 14 @ Steelers (-5.5) 29 - OK

Broncos (+1) 0 @ Chargers 21 - X
A third shutout by 20+ points. Oh my.

Seahawks 24 @ Giants (+5.5) 7 - X

Falcons (+3.5) 7 @ Patriots 24 - X
That Falcons offense doesn't look right. I'm far from a football expert, but some play calls felt strange, and quite often ineffective. Even if he had a relatively good completion %, Matt Ryan did miss many open receivers. The pressure from the Pats line was good, but the coverage wasn't that great, and very offense incompletions were due to Ryan overshooting the receiver or, for that Julio Jones attempt in the end zone, too close to the DB. Not taking anything away from the Pats. They played better than I've seen them on defense all year (which is not saying much, to be honest). Did not watch all their games, but from the 3-4 I saw it was their best performance. Yet I'm still not convinced because of how many open receivers there were.

Redskins @ Eagles (-4.5)
Oh man, this game started off so terribly. Out of the first 3 offensive plays we ran, we managed to have 4 penalties called against us. I was thinking "Oh man, this is going to be one of those games, isn't it?". I was prepared for the worst. Then my team showed that perhaps they really were a Super Bowl contender. Our D-Line is extremely talented and makes up for an average secondary. Sadly we lost one of our best LBs in Hicks. In any case, our D was very solid the whole game against an always-underrated Kirk Cousins. It amazes me that this guy is still looked upon as an average QB when he's definitely top 10 in my book. Talking about top QBs in the League, Wentz looked like a freaking Hall of Fame-bound quarterback yesterday. It was amazing. The pick early was stupid, but the rest of the game he was absolutely outstanding. Two plays stand out to me. There's that Houdini trick when he evaded what looked like a surefire sack to run for 17 yards and save a very vital drive. The other one was the TD throw to Clement in the corner of the end zone. It was a fantastically difficult play to pull off under pressure. He's so poised and controlled, and he can pull off plays out of nowhere, it's Aaron Rodgers-esque. Obviously he's FAR from being Rodgers as a second-year QB, but he shows so many flashes of brilliance it's hard not to get excited, even for a mostly apprehensive fan like me.

This week: 4-9-2
Season so far: 44-60-2

Man, this whole thing is really falling apart isn't it? At least the Eagles are winning.

NFL Lines - Week 7 predictions

Chiefs (-3) @ Raiders
This might another good TNF, but now we're not even sure the Raiders are good. It's a division matchup, on a short week, and the best team here is by far the Chiefs. Chiefs it is!

Bucs @ Bills (-3)

Cardinals @ Rams (-3.5)

Ravens @ Vikings (-6)

Panthers (-6) @ Bears

Jaguars @ Colts (+3)

Saints @ Packers (+5.5)

Jets @ Dolphins (-3)

Titans (-5.5) @ Browns
I was about to pick the Browns as home underdogs as I wasn't totally convinced by the Titans. Then I realized the Browns are 1-5 against the spread this season and are straight up 0-6.

Cowboys @ 49ers (+6)
They keep their games really close. They might actually pull this one out and make me a happy man.

Bengals @ Steelers (-5.5)

Broncos (+1) @ Chargers

Seahawks @ Giants (+5.5)

Falcons (+3.5) @ Patriots 
The Pats are 1-5 against the spread and have struggled mightily against the Jets, who are certainly not known for their high-powered offense. The Falcons, while not exactly running on all cylinders as of right now, are perhaps the best offense encountered by New England since Week 1.

Redskins @ Eagles (-4.5)
Oh man that first Redskins game was tough. I'm predicting this one will be close as well, but I feel we come out on top again.

Season so far: 40-51

NBA Wins Over/Under 2017-18

Last season, I got a very respectable 18 predictions right, for a 60% rate of success. I'd like to maintain that high percentage this year, but already I don't feel as good about many of those picks as I remember feeling last year.

Some texts might come later but the OVER/UNDER call is (now) set in stone.

Eastern Conference

Atlanta Hawks - 25.5 - OVER

Boston Celtics - 55.5 - UNDER
This is an ambitious number. I think Stevens will do as good a job as anyone would with such a new roster from one year to the next. There will be a lot of bumps in the road figuring out lineups and how to play together.

(DISCLAIMER, this was written before Hayward's injury, an injury that makes me f**king sad. I love Hayward and hopes he recovers 100% from that injury that I still haven't watched because I'm not watching that type of injury ever if I can avoid it).

Brooklyn Nets - 27.5 - OVER

Charlotte Hornets - 42.5 - OVER

Chicago Bulls - 22 - UNDER
That's very low, but we all know the Bulls aren't trying to win games and will achieve that goal quite easily.

Cleveland Cavaliers - 53.5 - UNDER
I don't see the same growing pains as I'm seeing with Boston, but I see an even worse defense than last season when they were horrendous. Isiah and Rose are bad defenders. Wade is old and won't be playing a lot. LeBron is LeCoast until the playoffs and clearly doesn't give a crap about the standings.

Detroit Pistons - 38.5 - UNDER
Hard one. I have a lot of respect for Stan Van Gundy as a coach, as I firmly believe he's in the top 6-7 coaches in the league. But I do no trust Jackson or Drummond. Not one bit.

Indiana Pacers - 31.5 - OVER

Miami Heat - 43.5 - UNDER
I feel alone thinking the Heat are not as good as so many experts and journalists make them out to be.

Milwaukee Bucks - 47.5 - UNDER
Feels 2-3 wins too high. Mid 40s makes more sense to me.

New York Knicks - 30.5 - UNDER

Orlando Magic - 33.5 - UNDER
How? How is it so high?

Philadelphia 76ers - 41.5 - OVER
Yes, this is not a rational take on the 76ers. They're more likely to go 36-46 than 42-40. This is wishful thinking from a very hopeful fan. The ceiling is clearly the low-mid 40s in a very weak conference. But it can all go wrong and they might win 34 games only as well. The future is bright though, that I'm certain about.

Toronto Raptors - 48.5 - UNDER

Washington Wizards - 48 - OVER

Western Conference

Dallas Mavericks - 35.5 - UNDER

Denver Nuggets - 45.5 - OVER

Golden State Warriors - 67.5 - OVER
How high would this number have to be to think about going under? 69.5 maybe? This tells me how "unfair" this team feels.

Houston Rockets - 55.5 - UNDER

Los Angeles Clippers - 43.5 - UNDER

Los Angeles Lakers - 33.5 - OVER

Memphis Grizzlies - 37.5 - OVER

Minnesota Timberwolves - 48.5 - OVER 

New Orleans Pelicans - 39.5 - OVER

Oklahoma City Thunder - 52 - OVER

Phoenix Suns - 29 - UNDER

Portland Trail Blazers - 42.5 - UNDER

Sacramento Kings - 27.5 - UNDER

San Antonio Spurs - 54.5 - OVER
I am thoroughly baffled that people pick against the Spurs in this case. I mean it's possible, but I'm never betting against Pop in those situations.

Utah Jazz - 41 - OVER

Packers 10 @ Vikings (+3) 23 - OK

Yes, I "won" this one, but I don't feel good about it. I despise injuries.

Lions 38 @ Saints (-4.5) 52 - OK

WTF happened here?

Dolphins 20 @ Falcons (-12) 17 - X

The most surprising result of week? Most certainly.

Patriots 24 @ Jets (+10) 17 - OK

Fuck everything about that call in the end zone. Not a single person with half a brain thinks that ball belonged to the Pats after that play. I don't like the Jets, I don't care about the Pats but I was (and still am, thinking about it) livid about that decision. 

49ers (+10.5) 24 @ Redskins 26 - OK

Losing 5 games in a row by a total of 13 points. That's amazing.

Buccaneers (-2.5) 33 @ Cardinals 38 - X

Fun, but stupid note from this game. During the week I decided to drop a underperforming WR in fantasy. I saw J. Brown available and jumped on him. I had completely forgotten the Cards had two players named J. Brown and I got Jaron instead of John. To be fair Jaron had a few great weeks beforehand, so it's not like they were polar opposites or anything.

Rams 27 @ Jaguars (-2.5) 17 - X
Every time I decide to trust the Jaguars, they get beat. If I don't trust them, they blow up the other team. I'm not very good at this.

Steelers 19 @ Chiefs (-5) 13 - X

I severely underestimated the Steelers defense. Holy crap they are solid. And it seems like Bell's preseason is over and he's ready to play.

Chargers 17 @ Raiders (-3) 16 - X

Disclaimer, I thought here the Raiders would be slight favorites as there was no line last week as I typed the predictions. They were. I picked them before the game but did not edit the post. You'll have to trust me on this!

Man I trust the Raiders way more than I should. I think every one of their game this year I've guessed wrong. I'm starting to think last year was almost a fluke.

Giants 23 @ Broncos 10 (-12) - X

I did not finish this game, but my first thought was that the Broncos offense produce some good stuff (almost 400 yards passing) but couldn't close out their drives. Sometimes it was because of good Giants D, sometimes they missed FGs (twice, in fact). Impressive win by the Giants, but I don't think it means anything in the grand scheme of things.

Colts (+7.5) 22 @ Titans 36 - X

Disclaimer, there was no line this past week. I wrote that the Titans would be favorite by a few points (in my head, between 3-6). When I saw the 7.5 line, I picked the Colts but did not edit the post. You'll have to trust me on this.

I felt good about the Colts for most of the game, then it all unraveled when it mattered.

Week 6 results: 5-9 so far

2017 season so far: 40-51

NFL Lines - Week 6 predictions

Eagles @ Panthers (-3.5)

Wait, will the best game of the week really be on a Thursday Night? Looking at this week's sleight, it really does look like it. Steelers @ Chiefs could be good, but Big Ben was so f***ing terrible last week I'm not sure anymore. 

Bears @ Ravens (-6.5)

That seems about right. I have a feeling this might be a very low scoring game, like 17-10 or along those lines. Two offenses that can't get going and two solid, if not very solid, defenses.

Browns @ Texans (-10)

Losing Watt and Mercilus is terrible for the Texans. Against the lowly Browns, their offense should be good enough. But their defense will most certainly struggle against better offenses in the future (hot take!). 

Packers @ Vikings (+3)

That's actually a very interesting matchup. 

Lions @ Saints (-4.5)

Dolphins @ Falcons (-12)

Patriots @ Jets (+10)

Got into an argument this week with one of my buddies who happens to be a Pats fan (weird people all over, right?) on a group chat. One other friend and I were simply defending the fact that this line was too high (it was -11 Pats at that moment). I believe my friend thought we were saying the Pats were bad or were going to lose that game (probably not) or that they weren't SB contenders (they are) or whatnot, because he got really defensive and spat out arguments and facts that had almost no relation to the line. It was a bit surreal. All we were saying is that from a gambling standpoint, this line was too high considering the teams in play. Clearly one can think this line can be too high and that the Pats are still SB contenders at the same time, which is my case. The Pats should definitely be favorites, only I believe it should be somewhere between 7.5 and 8.5. That does not mean they can't win by 32 (which they very well might), it just means I feel the line is too high. We all have that one friend who can't handle criticism directed at a favorite team or player and takes it as a personal attack. Oh well.

49ers (+10.5) @ Redskins

That's a much tougher one to call than I would have thought. I feel the Redskins are a good team, most likely a playoff contender. Opposing them are the 0-5 49ers. Makes sense that the line is double digit, right? Not so fast. The 49ers are in every single game, having lost the past 4 games by a total of 11 points. They'll stay relatively close here as well.

Buccaneers (-2.5) @ Cardinals

Rams @ Jaguars (-2.5)

Surprisingly, the Jags lead the NFL in point differential thanks to large margins of victory. At the same time, are they really as good as that stat indicates? I don't know, but this line is low enough that I'm willing to "risk" it.

Steelers @ Chiefs (-5)

Surprisingly low line here. The Steelers seem to get a lot of residual respect from Vegas even after being destroyed on their home field by Jacksonville. The Chiefs are clearly the superior team though.

Chargers @ Raiders

No line! I'm guessing the Raiders are favorite by 4-5 points (without Carr) and I'd take them here.

Giants @ Broncos (-12)

That game should have been a good one. It almost certainly won't be. A struggling quarterback with a depleted receiving corps against the best pass defense in the league. Yikes.

Colts @ Titans

No line! I'm thinking the Titans should be slight favorites here as well.

Chargers 27 @ Giants (-3) 22 - X
I'm willing to bet this would have gone differently if OBJ (and 42908 Giants players) hadn't fallen to injuries. Man, I know I'm supposed to want the Giants to lose as an Eagles fan, but this is just terrible.

Cardinals 7 @ Eagles (-6.5) 34 - OK
A rare good call by me this week. It was over after a quarter and Carson Wentz is indubitably the greatest quarterback and athlete in human history.

Jaguars 30 @ Steelers (-8) 9 - X
I do not believe I called either of those two teams' games right this year. I just can't understand what's going on. I don't think the Jaguars are that good, but the Steelers are certainly not contenders in the AFC if they keep playing like that. Man, that was a horrible display.

Seahawks 16 @ Rams (-1) 10 - X
Not convinced by this win for Seattle. Sure, the defense is extremely solid, but the offensive line is still incredibly shite.

Ravens 30 @ Raiders (-2.5) 17 - X

Packers (+2) 35 @ Cowboys 31 - OK

Chiefs (-1.5) 42 @ Texans 34 - OK
Man, the Texans just don't go away. Even against the best team in the NFL, it never did feel like the game was completely over.

Vikings 20 (-3.5) @ Bears 17 - X
Third game that ended within a point of the spread. It wasn't pretty on offense, but defense definitely shone.

This week: 4-10
2017 season so far: 35-42

NFL Lines - Week 5 predictions

Patriots @ Bucs (+6)
When the biggest Boston homer (who admittedly tends to try to reverse-jinx his team) I know about says this line is too high for the Pats, you know it's too high. New England might very well start playing like actual contenders this week, but I'm not 100% positive that will happen. I'm certainly not trusting the Bucs just yet, but being 6 points underdogs at home against the worst defense in many years is just wrong.

Bills (+3) @ Bengals
While the Bengals woke up last week, it was against the Browns. Therefore, I can't put too much credit into that performance.

Jets @ Browns (-1)

Panthers @ Lions (-2.5)
Two teams I'm still trying to figure out. Are the Panthers "back" or were they merely playing against a terrible defense? By almost any measure, the Lions should be 4-0.

49ers (+1) @ Colts

Titans (-1) @ Dolphins

Chargers @ Giants (-3)

Cardinals @ Eagles (-6.5)
Oh man I'm excited for this one. Not because I think the Cardinals are a walkover, but because this Eagles team is simply exciting if they can run the ball like they did last week. Sadly we're missing many pieces on defense and that could mean Fitz running all over us. But Carson Palmer is prone to poopy performances here and there.

Jaguars @ Steelers (-8)

Seahawks @ Rams (-1)
One of the best games of the weekend. Easily. Really pumped for this one, as the Rams are closer and closer to be considered "for real".

Ravens @ Raiders (-2.5)

Packers (+2) @ Cowboys

Chiefs (-1.5) @ Texans
For my money, the best game this weekend. Happily, it's also SNF and it's a National holiday (Canada) on Monday. I'm incredibly excited for this game.

Vikings (-3.5) @ Bears

2017 season so far: 31-32

NFL Lines - Week 4 Results

Bears (+7.5) 14 @ Packers 35 - X
Even after the Packers went up 14-0 after what seemed like 34 seconds, I still felt good about this line. In fact, it took me much longer than most people to rule out a cover by Chicago. In the end, I was very much mistaken.

Saints 20 @ Dolphins (+3) 0 - X

Titans (-2.5) 14 @ Texans 57 - X
Almost! Only 45.5 points off. And now the Texans are absolutely legit and should not be underestimated in the AFC.

Jaguars (-3.5) 20 @ Jets 23 - X

Panthers (+9) 33 @ Patriots 30 - OK
Yay, I got one!

Lions (+2.5) 14 @ Vikings 7 - OK

Bills 23 @ Falcons (-8) 17 - X
A very surprising result at first glance. Not as surprising when you consider the best 2 WRs from the Falcons got hurt in the first half.

Steelers 26 @ Ravens (+3) 9 - X
I still believe the Ravens defense is very good, but they are as inept as they come on offense. That was rough to watch.

Bengals (-3) 31 @ Browns 7 - OK
Are the Bengals back?

Rams (+6.5) 35 @ Cowboys 30 - OK
I feel relatively smart getting that one right, even if the rest of the week is relatively poopy for me. Again, the Cowboys aren't convincing and have been the victims of many questionable calls from a coaching standpoint.

Eagles (+1) 26 @ Chargers 24 - OK
I could go on for hours about how this game made me feel. A lot of anger and stress, and ultimately some joy.

Giants 23 @ Buccaneers (-3) 25 - X
Lost on the prediction, won because the Giants lost and are now 0-4. I don't hate the Giants necessarily, it's just that a bad result for them is good news for the Eagles.

49ers 15 @ Cardinals (-7) 18 - X

Raiders 10 @ Broncos (-3) 16 - OK

Colts (+13) 18 @ Seahawks 46 - X
Now this looked more like the Seattle team we were all expecting at the beginning of the year. Even within that game, it took a while to get going, but once they did, they just destroyed a team. Granted, it's a team they should destroy, but it's a good sign nonetheless.

Redskins 20 @ Chiefs (-7) 29 - OK
A very entertaining game through and through. The Chiefs covered in the weirdest way possible with 4 seconds left, making a lot of people angry and happy. This buzzer-beating TD put the margin over 7, giving many gamblers a win. It also put the total number of points scored over 48, which was the line for this game. A friend of mine had bet on both KC -7 and Over 48 points total. With 4 seconds left, both looked nearly impossible.

This week: 7-9
2017 season so far: 31-32

NFL Lines - Week 4 predictions

Bears (+7.5) @ Packers
That 0.5 is just enough for me to take the Bears. At 7 I would be stuck, not knowing which way to lean. 7.5 is enough to push me over the edge as the Bears aren't terrible.

Saints @ Dolphins (+3)
I don't feel good about either team here.

Titans (-2.5) @ Texans
That's a hard one. The Texans are much better than their 1-2 record indicates, and the Titans are simply very good. It will certainly be one of the better games of week 4.

Jaguars (-3.5) @ Jets

Panthers (+9) @ Patriots
I don't know what to make of the Panthers just yet. Their offense is terrible but their defense has been able to keep them in games (except against the Saints). The Pats torched the Saints and the Saints torched the Panthers. Using kids' logic, the Patriots should make minced meat of the Panthers, but I don't think it will be this simple. I just don't trust the Pats just yet, but am prepared to be proven wrong, as they have done multiple times in the past years.

Lions (+2.5) @ Vikings 

Bills @ Falcons (-8)

Steelers @ Ravens (+3)
Cue the "These two teams don't like each other" soundbite. While the Steelers have definitely been the most accomplished team over the past couple of seasons, the Ravens have had the upper hand in this intense rivalry (including 4 straight wins in Baltimore) and the matches have usually been really close.

Bengals (-3) @ Browns

Rams (+6.5) @ Cowboys
Another pretty good matchup here. The Rams have been incredible on offense so far, scoring almost 36 points per game. They will be a handful for the still not entirely convincing Cowboys on a short week. 6.5 seems too high a spread.

Eagles (+1) @ Chargers
I feel like we should be favorite, especially as we're hovering around 8-12 in most power rankings whereas the Chargers are in the very high 20s and even 30s in some places. I'm not saying the Chargers are an especially bad team.

Giants @ Buccaneers (-3)

49ers @ Cardinals (-7)

Raiders @ Broncos (-3)

Colts (+13) @ Seahawks
Man I don't know how the Seahawks keep getting those very high lines when they haven't shown anything impressive this year. Their offense seemed to come out of a funk last week but they still lost. If you would have told me 4 weeks ago that the 'Hawks would be favorites by almost two touchdowns against Colts, I wouldn't have been surprised. Now, 13 points seems like a lot. Maybe too much. You kinda expect Seattle to finally start playing like the SuperBowl contenders most believe they are, but I'm not convinced yet.

Redskins @ Chiefs (-7)
The best game of the week? It might very well be.

2017 season so far: 24-23
