My NFL Today’s Picks (Week 18, 2023 Season)

My NFL Today’s Picks (Week 18, 2023 Season)

Well football fans it all comes down to the last regular season game of this season. We still have playoff spots that need to be clinched by Sunday. Also there is 4 division titles on the line (2 in each conference) from the AFC Eastern, AFC Southern, NFC Eastern, and NFC Southern that need to be decided soon. Plus there are the other teams that need to figure there futures beyond this season. Who is going to be the next Head Coach, Quarterback, etc. The NFL has fined Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper for throwing a drink at a fan, after his team loses again in Jacksonville vs Jaguars. I wish I was running the league, Tepper would have gotten a multi-game suspension instead of a fine. His recent behavior has been sending shock waves in the NFL and throughout sports in general. Its almost time for the playoffs, and I wish we could bring Jim Mora to get the fans ready for the postseason. His playoff rant is one of the best of all time, and it will NEVER be topped in my opinion. So as for my picks, which I had a good week going 12-4 in Week 17. In the month of December, I went 48-28, and for this season so far I am 156-100. I only need 3 wins to eclipse last season win total, I think its safe to assume I will get there. I even have a shot at possibly at 170 wins for the first time ever? So now here is my Week 18 picks as we close out the regular season, and its been an interesting one for the books:

Saturday’s Action: (Games on ABC/ESPN/ESPN Plus)

Ravens over Steelers

Texans over Colts

Early Sunday Afternoon:

Browns over Bengals

Saints over Falcons

Lions over Vikings

Jaguars over Titans

Buccaneers over Panthers

Patriots over Jets

Late Sunday Afternoon:

Packers over Bears

Chiefs over Chargers

Raiders over Broncos

49ers over Rams

Eagles over Giants

Cowboys over Commanders

Seahawks over Cardinals

Sunday Night:

Dolphins over Bills

There you have it my picks are up and lets enjoy the last of the regular season before we hit the postseason with both feet in. My playoff preview is coming up soon, stay tuned for it and hoped your new year is off to a good start.

My NFL Today’s Picks (Week 17, 2023 Season)

My NFL Today’s Picks (Week 17, 2023 Season)

Well football fans it has come down to this, we only have 2 weeks of the regular season of the National Football League. There is plenty to get to on this one. We will get to the picks in a moment. A big story is developing as we speak as Russell Wilson is headed to the bench (via the Denver Broncos decision). The Denver Broncos ought to be ashamed of themselves for benching Russell Wilson, even though Wilson has been putting up good stats this season. Wilson has 26 touchdown passes, and only 8 interceptions on the season. The Broncos want to save money for there next 2 seasons at least, however I believe they are too late on 2024 as Wilson’s salary ($39 Million) is guaranteed. But his 2025 salary is not as of now. If I was Russell Wilson I would ask for my release or a trade in the off season. I think it is terrible what the Broncos are doing, and the worst part of this is that they are still in playoff contention going into this week. The Broncos record on the season is: 7-8, all they need to do is win there last 2 games and get some much needed help to grab a wild card at least. Russell Wilson deserves better treatment than he was getting from the Broncos, I hope the Broncos do the right thing for Russell Wilson. Shame on you Denver Broncos, and in the future please do better. There are plenty of head coaches on the hot seat for various reasons. Coaches like Ron Rivera, Arthur Smith, Matt Eberflus, and others. It looks like Black Monday will be an interesting one coming in a couple of weeks. There is still no word on the future (or non-future) of Bill Belichick with the New England Patriots. It is really tough to predict on the situation, however in a couple of weeks we will know the pending finale of it. Well my picks barely survive last week going 8-8 in week 16, so the month of December has been weird going36-24. So on the 2023 season, I am 144-96 and so a good couple of weeks will be needed before the postseason starts. So here is my Week 17 picks:

Thursday Night:

Browns over Jets

Saturday Night:

Lions over Cowboys

Early Sunday Afternoon:

Bills over Patriots

Eagles over Cardinals

Ravens over Dolphins

Jaguars over Panthers

Buccaneers over Saints

Falcons over Bears

Colts over Raiders

49ers over Commanders

Rams over Giants

Texans over Titans

Late Sunday Afternoon:

Steelers over Seahawks

Broncos over Chargers

Chiefs over Bengals

Sunday Night:

Packers over Vikings

There you have it my picks are up and hope your holiday season is going well and safe. Happy New Year to you and we will talk in 2024.

My NFL Today’s Picks (Week 16, 2023 Season)

My NFL Today’s Picks (Week 16, 2023 Season)

Well football fans, there is only 3 weeks left of this regular season and the playoff race is getting interesting by the minute. There is plenty to talk about from this past week of the National Football League. The Los Angeles Chargers have let go of Brandon Staley, and I believe it is time for the Chargers to hit the reset button with there franchise once again. There is still no word on the future of Bill Belichick with the New England Patriots, and owner Robert Kraft is not saying a word to the media about it. There is continued speculation on how this story will play out at season’s end. No it will not be the longest running soap opera since the Phil Jackson days from the Chicago Bulls in basketball. Updating the playoff picture as 4 teams have clinched playoff spots so far. They are the Ravens, 49ers, Cowboys, and the Eagles. There are 6 teams that are already eliminated from playoff contention, that is almost a fourth of the league. Now time for my update on my picks, as this is the first time all season I had a fantastic week of picking games. In Week 15 I went 14-2, and so the month of December so far I’m 28-16. In the 2023 season my record is 136-88. So it is now time for my picks on Week 16:

Thursday Night:

Rams over Saints

Saturday Doubleheader:

Bengals over Steelers

Bills over Chargers

Early Sunday Afternoon:

Colts over Falcons

Packers over Panthers

Seahawks over Titans

Texans over Browns

Lions over Vikings

Commanders over Jets

Late Sunday Afternoon:

Jaguars over Buccaneers

Bears over Cardinals

Cowboys over Dolphins

Sunday Night:

Broncos over Patriots

Monday’s Action on Christmas Day:

Chiefs over Raiders

Eagles over Giants

Ravens over 49ers

2019 Weekly NFL Picks (Week 13)

Well Happy Thanksgiving to you, and its time to get down to business for the NFL. I cannot wait for all the football to take place this weekend. So last week in the NFL, I guess it was a turkey like day. Colin Kaepernick still remains unsigned, like give this man a chance already. It has been TOO LONG, just let it go. The Steelers are now down to the 3rd starting quarterback this season, with Devlin Hodges getting the start Sunday for an ineffective Mason Rudolph. Then there is the Jason Garrett rumor to the Giants, I am not taking that story with face value. I would not be surprise if it happens. Last week I went 7-7 in week 12, and for the month of November I’m 32-23. This 2019 season I’m 108-67-1, and will hope to build on that record. Here is my week 13 picks as crunch time starts:

2018 Weekly NFL Picks (Week 16)

2018 Weekly NFL Picks (Week 16)

Well what a season it has been in the National Football League, and oh by the way 2 weeks of regular season play are left. Most of the playoff spots are still up for grabs, however there are a handful of teams already eliminated from playoff contention. There are other teams that are sorting out there future with head coaches and impact players for there respective teams. How about it is going to get more interesting, how about the final game ever in Oakland? If the city has there way, they plan on kicking out the Raiders once there season is over with a lawsuit. So where does the Raiders play next season, who knows at this point. Believe me we will keep an eye on it, throughout the upcoming off season. The Broncos could possibly change head coaches, but we will keep an eye on it as it develops.Now for my picks which has taken a nosedive the past 3 weeks. This month has not been kind on my picks. In week 15 i went 7-9, and in December i’m 23-25. In the 2018 season i’m 132-90-2 which puts me in a strange situation. My streak of getting in between 150-160 wins per season is in jeopardy.

2018 Weekly NFL Picks (Week 15)

2018 Weekly NFL Picks (Week 15)

how about this NFL season up to this point? so many twists and turns, then there is the back and forth. It all happened so much my picks ended up being same. The NFL plans of increasing the salary cap next season, which is good for all teams in the league. 2 teams are without a head coach, and more could be coming sooner rather than later. They could be as many as 10 teams (over/under) that looks for a new NFL head coach. The Eli Manning era may not end, not yet according to local reports in New York. Due to the shocking turnaround of the Giants, who all of a sudden have playoff life (for the moment). They could still get in if they win out, and other factors happen as well. Now for my picks, 8-8 again his time in week 14. In the month of December i’m 16-16, and for the season i’m 125-81-2 in 2018. I really need a great week in order to keep my streak of getting 150 wins alive. Now for the Week 15 picks:

Thursday night:

Chiefs over Chargers

Saturday’s action:

Texans over Jets

Broncos over Browns

Early Sunday:
