American football: NFL, NCAAF, CFL and Arena Football
We already have plenty to the thankful for before the official games kick off today in Detroit, Arlington and New Orleans. Monday night we all bore witness to one of the greatest regular season games of all time. It was so great, people automatically (including me) starting openly petitioning for a rematch between the Kansas […] More
We’re cruising into the final byes and have wrapped up a good 62 percent of the season. That means teams are going to start clinching stuff, whether it be playoff spots or flat out division titles over the following weeks. There’s a lot of minor movement this week, with a handful of teams jumping a few […] More
It was a heck of a ride last week. Although my college football parlay failed to cash, it was definitely exciting to follow, and I felt like it was destined to hit after the first two legs came in. All week long, I thought that Ohio State would easily win over Maryland and figured they […] More
While there are 32 NFL franchises, there aren’t presently 32 franchise quarterbacks in the league. Frankly, there might not be 32 franchise quarterbacks on the planet. By my count, right now there are 15 guys that you can safely say are franchise quarterbacks. After that, you have maybe five or six decent NFL starters and […] More
After a scintillating Monday Night Football contest where all sorts of records were broken, the league now shifts to Week 12 and the Thanksgiving Games. With that in mind, let’s take a look at the card and map out our NFL Week 12 parlay: The Favorite Atlanta Falcons at New Orleans Saints Odds: Saints -13 […] More
College football’s regular season hits its glorious three-day conclusion this holiday weekend, with a couple of games Thursday, a full slate Friday (including a couple of really important games) and then rivalry Saturday. We’ll set the stage for you with this week’s NCAA Power Rankings. NCAA Power Rankings Alabama (11-0, 7-4 ATS, last week: 1) The […] More
While a trio of Thanksgiving Thursday games narrow down the slate for Sunday, there is no doubt that there is still excellent value in some of the lines for this weekend’s action. We took the time to identify where the best potential lies when it comes to building a four-team, seven-point teaser for Sunday’s NFL […] More
When quarterback Alex Smith went down with a gruesome broken leg in Sunday’s 23-21 loss to the Houston Texans, he might have ended any chance the Washington Redskins had at a playoff spot. While the Redskins still lead the NFC East with a 6-4 record, they’ll have to fend off a suddenly respectable Dallas Cowboys […] More
It’s been a fantastic 2018 campaign for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. They are one game away from an undefeated regular season, and that will have them in the College Football Playoff for the first time in their history. Accordingly, online sportsbook BetDSI has made the Irish an odds-on favorite to be one of the […] More
His stat line was as unimpressive as the game was unwatchable, but Baltimore Ravens rookie quarterback Lamar Jackson won his first start, 24-21, over the swooning Cincinnati Bengals and now it’s time for everyone to lose their minds a little bit. It happens all the time. Be it Nick Mullens with the San Francisco 49ers […] More
Earlier in the day, we spent a little bit of time breaking down the 2018 FCS Playoffs Bracket. Although we had some quibbles with where certain teams were ranked, the Selection Committee mostly seems to have done a good job. However, one team was definitely snubbed by the committee, and we were a little surprised […] More
The FCS Selection Committee has spoken. Following three months of gridiron action, the field of 24 teams is set. While, it was no surprise to see North Dakota State get the No. 1 overall seed after finishing the regular season undefeated, the rest of the bracket raised a lot of eyebrows. Let’s take a look […] More
