The Philadelphia Eagles under Chip Kelly has totally revamped the Eagles offense. They acquired Sam Bradford at quarterback and DeMarco Murray at running back. By the looks of preseason Philadelphia is primed to light up the scoreboard this season. Philadelphia Eagles defense ranked 28th in total yards allowed and 22nd in scoring defense last season. The Atlanta Falcons will start once again, this time with new head coach Dan Quinn. The Falcons have averaged 5 wins over the last two seasons.as they’ve won just 10 games the last two seasons. Offensively, the Falcons do have weapons with quarterback Matt Ryan and wide receivers Julio Jones and Roddy White. They will need to get some yards on the ground from either Devonta Freeman or rookie Tevin Coleman. The Falcons finished 12th last season in scoring offense. Defensively, the Atlanta Falcons finished last season ranked 32nd in total yards allowed and 22nd in scoring defense. Both teams have suspect defenses and both teams have the potential to score a ton of points. I will be surprised if this game isn’t over by the third quarter. Play on the over.

09-13-15 | Tennessee Titans v. Tampa Bay Buccaneers UNDER 41 | 42-14 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 59 m | Show | |
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers was the worst team in the NFL last season. The offense was pathetic averaging 292.3 yards and 17.3 points per game ranking near the bottom in most offensive categories. Tampa Bay will turn to No. 1 draft pick quarterback Jameis Winston to turn the offensive around. They are also hoping running back Doug Martin returns to form. Winston has talent at the receiver position to help in the passing game in Vincent Jackson and Mike Evans. The Buccaneers defense allowed 368.9 yards per game that ranked them 25th and they allowed 25.6 points per game. The Tennessee Titans are also turning to a rookie quarterback this season in last years Heisman winner Marcos Mariota. He inherits the worst offense in the league. They averaged just 15.9 points and 303.7 yards per game. Bishop Sankey will lead the rushing attack. Kendall Wright leads the receiving core and should get help from Harry Douglas, Justin Hunter, and Dorial Green-Beckham. The Titans defense was second to last in points allowed last season at 27.4 per game and 27th in yards per game allowed at 373. You have two rookie quarterbacks on two bad teams. This could be a high scoring game but I see the opposite. i see two teams that will struggle to score and am playing accordingly. Play on the Under. This is a 10* play. | |||||||
09-13-15 | New Orleans Saints v. Arizona Cardinals -2.5 | 19-31 | Win | 100 | 158 h 24 m | Show | |
The New Orleans Saints are looking to bounce back from an un-Saint like 7-9 season last year. The Saints are still led by quarterback Drew Brees, but he will be missing some familiar weapons from years past. He lost a couple of his go to guys in the passing game with yhe loss of Kenny Stills and Jimmy Graham. He still has wide receivers Marques Colston and Brandin Cooks to catch the ball. The Saints would help the running game but he is out with an injury. On the defensive side they finished last season ranked 31st in total yards allowed and 28th in scoring defense. Their leading tackler and leading sack leader will also have to be replaced. The Arizona Cardinals have been impressive the last couple of seasons with 21 total wins. Carson Palmer returns at quarterback after throwing 35 touchdowns in his first two seasons with the Cardinals. As long as he stays healthy the Cardinals should have another good season. Larry Fitzgerald and Michael Floyd give Palmer threats at the wideout position and Andre Ellington will lead the rushing attack. The Cardinals defense is a strong point. They finished last season ranked 24th in total yards allowed but fifth in scoring defense. Wide receiver Floyd is questionable with a finger injury. The Cardinals are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 home games and 17-7 ATS in their last 24 games overall. The Saints are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 meetings. The Cardinals defense should cause the Saints offense problems. It will take the Saints a couple of games for the offense to come together and I think Palmer will get the job done for the Cardinals offense. Play on Arizona, This is a 10* play. | |||||||

The New York Yankees ave lost five of their last seven games. The Yankees have scored just 13 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in six of their last nine games.

Tanaka is 4-2 with a 2.65 ERA and 41 strikeouts in his career against the Blue Jays. The Blue Jays are 10-1 in Dickeys last 11 starts. The Yankees are 14-6 in Tanaka's last 20 starts. The Blue Jays are 5-2 in Dickeys last 7 starts vs. Yankees. Tanaka may be the better pitcher but it i hard to go against Dickey with how he has pitched against the Yankees and the way the Jays have been hitting. I think the line is too high and am taking the value. Play on Toronto. This is a 10* play. | |||||||
09-13-15 | Green Bay Packers -6.5 v. Chicago Bears | 31-23 | Win | 100 | 155 h 20 m | Show | |
Aaron Rodgers is back at quarterback for the Green Bay Packers as he tries and leads them back to the playoffs and the Super Bowl. They have made the playoffs every year since 2009. Rodgers has thrown for over 30 touchdowns in three of his last four receivers but will have to do it without his two main weapons at wide receiver in Randall Cobb and Jordy Nelson, who are injured. . Green Bay will rely on running back in Eddie Lacy to carry load in the rushing game. Defensively, the Packers were 15th in total yards allowed last season and 13th in scoring defense. Unlike Green Bay, the Chicago Bears seen the playoffs since the 2011 season.. The Bears have a solid running game in Matt Forte and and get the ball downfield with Alshon Jeffery, but for Bear fans, the 200 pound elephant in the room is quarterback Jay Cutler. Cutler has thrown 30 picks in his last two seasons and has fumbled 20 times in his last three years. The Bears were hoping rookie wideout Kevin White would be able to add play making ability to the offense but he will miss the game with an injury. They will have to improve defensively, as they ranked 30th last year in total yards allowed and 31st in scoring defense. The Packers are 38-17 ATS in their last 55 vs. NFC North. The Bears are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games on grass and 7-18-1 ATS in their last 26 home games. The Packers are 16-5 ATS in their last 21 meetings in Chicago and 21-8-1 ATS in their last 30 meetings overall. The Packers have beaten the Bears in nine of their last 10 meetings, including two blowouts last season. Rodgers has a way to make an receiver look good and even though the injuries hurt I don't feel it is the end of the world. I like the Packers to roll yet again over the Bears. Play on Green Bay. This is a 10* play. | |||||||
09-13-15 | Indianapolis Colts -2.5 v. Buffalo Bills | 14-27 | Loss | -105 | 9 h 40 m | Show | |
The Indianapolis Colts have averaged 11 wins over the last three seasons. The Colts are led by quarterback Andrew Luck. The Colts added some more offensive weapons to his arsenal, as if he needed them. They added running back Frank Gore and wide Receiver Andre Johnson, to go along with T.Y. Hilton. Last season the Colts were sixth in scoring offense. Defensively, the Colts weren’t too bad ranking 11th in total yards allowed last season and 19th in scoring defense. Dan Herron and Robert Mathis are questionable for Indy with injuries. The Buffalo Bills have a new head coach in Rex Ryan and a new quarterback in Tyrod Taylor. Taylor is not without offensive weapons. Wise receivers Sammy Watkins, Charles Clay and Percy Harvin should make things easier on Taylor. . The Bills also added LeSean McCoy in hopes of improving the rushing game. The Bills finished 18th in scoring offense. The Bills defense ranked fourth in total yards allowed last season and fourth in scoring defense.. Marquise Goodwin, McCoy and Leodis McKelvin are questionable for Buffalo with injuries.

Without McCoy this is a little different game. Taylor will have to prove he can win at this level and this is something Luck has proven he can do since game one in the league. Luck will lead the Colts to a big win in this one. Play on the Indianapolis Colts. This is a 10* play. | |||||||

The Carolina Panthers have made the playoffs the last two seasons behind quarterback Cam Newton and a stingy defense. Cam Newton will have to find a way to step up without star receiver Kelvin Benjamin. He will have to count on to Ted Ginn Jr., Greg Olsen and Corey Brown to pick up the slack for the passing game. Jonathan Stewart will look to carry the rushing attack. The Panthers defense will have to step again this season. They ranked 10th last season in total yards allowed and 21st in scoring defense. Josh Norman, Ryan Kalil, Charles Tillman and Star Lotulelei are questionable with injuries. The Jacksonville Jaguars have been terrible over the last three seasons winning just a combined 9 wins. Blake Bortles his second season for the Jags and will need to show that he is a NFL starting quarterback. to do it it this game without t tight end Julius Thomas, who is hurt. He has an array of young talent in Allen Robinson, Marqise Lee and Allen Hurns, but all three must step up. Denard Robinson and rookie T.J. Yeldon will handle the rushing attack. The Jags defense will have to step up for the jags to have any chance this season. They Jaguars were ranked 26th last season in total yards allowed and 26th in scoring defense. Sen'Derrick Marks and Toby Gerhart are both questionable with injuries.

The leading receiver was Fred Ross with with five catches for 75 yards and De’Runnya Wilson had two catches for 55 yards. The Mississippi State defense will need to step up after allowing 331 yards passing and 413 yards overall. The LSU Tigers didn’t get to play last week as they had their game cancelled. The quarterback position has been the Tiger’s weak link the last few years. Brandon Harris will be the starter but Anthony Jennings will probably see action. LSU strength is their running game. Leonard Fournette is a beats in the backfield and they have weapons at wide out with Malachi Dupre and Travin Dural catching passes from whoever is playing QB. The LSU defense is always tough both on the line and in the backfield. gh. LSU’s defense is super and Miss. States is tough also. LSU will rely on their running game and it’s hard to put a lot of stock in their quarterbacks until they prove themselves. They may start slow since they didn’t play last week. I see a low scoring game and like the under. Play on the Under. This is a 10* play. | |||||||

This will be the Toledo Rockets first game this year and will look to replace suspended running back Kareem Hunt. Hunt averaged eight yards every time he touched the ball. They may use a two quarterback attack with Phillip Ely and Logan Woodside both seeing time under center. They have weapons at wide receiver in Corey Jones and Alonzo Russsell that gives them options when throwing the ball. Their defense will need to step up and keep them in the game. The Arkansas Razorbacks are coming off a nice 48-13 win over UTEP. Arkansas racked up 490 yards of total offense and allowed the Miners just 204. Alex Collins led the razorback rushing attack with 127 yards on just 12 carries and a score. Quarterback Brandon Allen went 14-18 for 308 yards and four touchdowns with no interceptions.

The Wisconsin Badgers are looking to win double digit games for the fifth time in seven seasons but will have to do it under the direction of new Head Coach Paul Chryst.

Wide outs Alex Erickson and Troy Fumagalli had a combined 900 plus receiving yards and caught three touchdowns. Jordan Fredrick added 13 receptions. Corey Clement will take over the rushing duties for Wisconsin. He rushed for 949 yards and nine touchdowns last season. The Alabama Crimson Tide has a starting quarterback dilemma. Jake Coker may make the start after completing 64.4 percent of his passes for 403 yards, four touchdowns and zero picks last year, but 2 others could be seeing playing time in this game. O.J. Howard and Chris Black combined for more than 400 receiving yards last year and ArDarius Stewart had 12 receptions as a freshman. Derrick Henry will get a lion share of the carries. He rushed for 990 yards and 11 touchdowns and will be relied on heavily, at least early in the season until they get their QB situation sorted out. Their defense should be stout as usual and should lead the Bama team early in the season. The Badgers are 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 games in September. The Crimson Tide are 9-4 ATS in their last 13 neutral site games and 5-12-1 ATS in their last 18 games overall. Alabama may struggle early with their quarterback stuation. Wisconsin plays solid defense and their offense should be able to score some points. I think 2 touchdowns is too many in a game when Alabama is not settled at quarterback. Play on Wisconsin.

The Texas A&M Aggies return starting quarterback Kyle Allen under center. Allen started the final five last season and passed for 1,322 yards and 16 touchdowns with seven interceptions in nine games. Speedy Noll and Ricky Seals-Jones return at the receiving position to give Allen some weapons to get the ball to. They also return running back Tra Carson. They are hoping the defense to improve with the addition of defensive coordinator John Chavis from LSU. ASU is led by QB Mike Bercovici who looked solid in his three starts last season. He is capable of big things. Bercovici set school records for completions and attempts in his first career start against UCLA, throwing for 488 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions on 42-of-68 passing. He followed that up by throwing for 510 yards and five touchdowns against Southern California, giving him 998 yards in his first two starts, an NCAA record. Bercovici, had appeared in 14 games in his first two seasons before playing in 13 in 2014. D.J. Foster passed on the NFL and will be an integral part of the Sun Devils offense both carrying and receiving. Gary Chambers and Cameron Smith hope to contribute to a decimate ASU receiving corps. Texas A&M is 2-7 against the spread in their last nine games, 3-11 against the spread in neutral site games, and 8-3 against the spread in September. Arizona State is 2-5 against the spread in their last seven non-conference games and 1-6 against the spread in their last seven neutral site games. I like ASU to step this year and improve on last year. Their offense could be outstanding and if their defense can slow down they have a good chance to pull the upset. Play on ASU.

He has a couple of weapons to go to in the passing game. DaeSean Hamilton and Geno Lewis combined for over 1,600 hards last season. Their offensive line and running game will need to come together for the offense to match the defensive side of the ball with is Penn States strength. The Temple Owls finished 6-6 last season.

The under is 6-1 in Owls last 7 vs. Big Ten and is 4-1 in Owls last 5 games overall while Temple are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games in September. Defense is the strength of both teams.

The Utah Utes look to have another good season this year Last year the Utes produced their first winning record in conference since they joined the Pac-12. The return three year starting quarterback to take the snaps under center. He threw just five interceptions last year. Utah will rely on a heavy dose of running back Devontae Booker. He is the main horse for the Utes totaling over 1,500 yards even though he had only 31 carries in the first three games. Utah defense was outstanding last year, recording 55 sacks which led the nation. Six of the front seven return for Utah which should give them an advantage early in the season. All the talk around the Michigan Wolverines has been about the return of the prodigal son, Head Coach Jim Harbaugh. Graduate transfer from Iowa, Jake Rudock, has won the starting job over Shane Morris. While Ruddock is new to UM, he had 25 starts at Iowa. Amara Darboh is the leading receiver for Michigan’s but there is no clear cut choice for number two. The running back position is still unsettles and a few guys could see action early as they try to settle on a go to guy. The defense also didn’t play up to Michigan standards and they hope Jabril Peppers is finally ready to go in the secondary. Utah is 5-0 against the spread in their last five games against the Big Ten, 9-4 against the spread in their last 13 games overall, 37-17-2 against the spread in their last 56 non-conference games. Michigan is 1-6 against the spread in their last seven non-conference games, 0-8 against the spread against the Pac-12, and 11-25-1 against the spread in their last 37 road games.

The South Carolina Gamecocks have made it seven straight bowl games and have their sights set on another one this year. Connor Mitch will be the starting quarterback for South Carolina when the season opens. He has just six pass attempts for a total of 19 yards in his career. He will have a couple of weapons to throw to. Pharoh Cooper and Jerell Adams combined to record more than 1,400 yards receiving and 10 touchdowns. Wilds will take over as the main running back.

He allowed one run over seven innings June 25 but did not factor in the decision of a 6-4 loss at Coors. He then surrendered six runs over five in a 6-4 home loss to the Rockies on July 5.

Gonzalez has failed to pitch more than five innings in six of his last seven starts. Gonzalez has not pitched well as of late and both offenses has picked up momentum.

08-19-15 | Toronto Blue Jays -1.5 v. Philadelphia Phillies | 4-7 | Loss | -115 | 10 h 30 m | Show | |
I am not sure that there is another team hotter than the Blue Jays at the moment. Mark Buerhle has been light out and maybe one of the most overlooked pitchers in the American League. The Phillies after a hot start in the second half are starting to ook like the Phillies of old. I love Toronto in this one on the run-line. Play on Toronto. This is a 10* play. | |||||||

08-16-15 | Miami Marlins v. St. Louis Cardinals -1.5 | 6-4 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 55 m | Show | |
This is simply the case of a team hitting their stride heading into the playoffs against a team waiting for the season to be over. St. Louis has won six of their last eight and seven of theri last 10 at home. Carlos Martinez will start for the Cardinals and he has been sensational all year. he is 12-4 with a 2.62 ERA and 139 strikeouts this season. This will be Martinez’s second career game against the Marlins. The Miami Marlins on the other hand have lost seven of their last 10 games. David Phelps 4-8 with a 4.35 ERA and 73 strikeouts this season. This will be Phelps’ second career game against the Cardinals. A far better team with something to play for with their best pitcher on the mound against a team that is playing for nothing and a pitcher who hasn't shown much this season. This one is easy. Play on St. Louis on the run line. This is a 10* play | |||||||
08-16-15 | Detroit Tigers +185 v. Houston Astros | 5-6 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 49 m | Show | |
The Detroit Tigers are coming off a 4-3 win in eleven innings yesterday. Justin Verlander pitched seven shutout innings with Bruce Rondon blowing the save in the 9th. Rookie Matt Boyd gets his 5th start of the season for Detroit. Boyd fell to the Royals 4-0 in his last outing with three runs plated on nine hits over 5.1 innings. The Houston Astros had a modest two game winning streak come to an end with Saturday’s extra inning defeat which hurt because the Angels also lost. Mike Fiers gets his second start for the Astros. Fiers did not get a decision in a 5-4 loss to Oakland with a run allowed on five hits over 6.2 frames. I am not sold on Friers and I think this line is way over-inflated against a Tigers team that still has a potent offense. This is a value play for me. Play on Detroit. This is a 10* play. | |||||||

Arizona is 5-0 in De La Rosas last 5 starts, while the Braves are just 3-13 in Millers last 16 starts. Arizona is the better team with the better pitcher.
