01-04-15 Cincinnati Bengals v. Indianapolis Colts UNDER 49 Top 10-26 Win 100 20 h 26 m Show

The Bengals have seen their last 6-games on the road all go under the total. The average total in those games was 46.9, and the average points scored was 33.3. Those 6-games stayed under the total by a decisive average of 13.6 points per contest. I look for the Bengals to rely heavily on their running game. Especially considering star wide receiver A.J. Green is doubtful to play due to a concussion, and tight end Jermaine Gresham is far less than 100% due to a back injury. The Bengals have rushed for an impressive 557-yards over their previous 3-games, and averaged a superb 5.1 yards per  rushing attempt. The Cincinnati run defense has been outstanding in their previous 5 road games. They've allowed opponents a total of only 296-yards during that time, and surrendered a paltry 2.8 yards per attempt.

The Colts have have gone under the total in each of their previous 4-games. The Colts running game wasn't a factor in any of those contests, gaining just 268-yards on the ground, and averaging a poor 3.1 yards per carry. The Colts defense was tied with the Buffalo Bills for best in the NFL this season on 3rd down, allowing opponents to convert just 33.2% of the time. The Colts met the Bengals once already this season, and turned in a dominating defensive performance in a 27-0 home win. Play on this game to go under the total as a 10* Top Play.

01-03-15 Arizona Cardinals +6.5 v. Carolina Panthers Top 16-27 Loss -100 20 h 33 m Show

I understand that the Cardinals are limited offensively with 3rd string quarterback Ryan Lindley. However, they're still a quality football team, and shouldn't be a sizable underdog versus an opponent  with a losing record. In case you're wondering, the Cardinals are 19-2 ATS in their last 21-games as an underdog of 6.5 or less, and if they were facing an opponent with a winning percentage of less than .571, they improve to 12-0 ATS. On the other hand, Carolina has gone 2-8 ATS in their last 10-games as a non-division home favorite of between 3.0 and 6.5.

The Cardinals finished the regular season by losing their final two games. Believe it or not, NFL Playoff betting history shows teams that enter the playoffs on a down note similar to the Cardinals have done very well. Since 1990, any non-division playoff team, coming off two losses in a row, and is facing an opponent with a winning percentage of less than .625, has gone 8-0 ATS, and won 7 of those 8 outright.

12-28-14 Cincinnati Bengals v. Pittsburgh Steelers -3.5 Top 17-27 Win 107 25 h 56 m Show

Cincinnati @ Pittsburgh 8:30 PM ET
Game# 305-306
Play On: Pittsburgh -3.5 (10*)

Any home favorite of 3.5 or more (Pittsburgh) that's playing in game 9 of the season or beyond, and they have a winning record, versus an opponent coming off a home underdog straight up win by 17-points or less, and that opponent (Cincinnati) has a winning record, has gone 20-3 ATS since 1990. Play on the Pittsburgh Steelers minus the points as a 10* Top Play selection.

12-28-14 Carolina Panthers v. Atlanta Falcons UNDER 48 Top 34-3 Win 100 22 h 16 m Show

Carolina @ Atlanta 4:25 PM ET
Game# 315-316
Play On: Under 48.0 (10*)

The Carolina Panthers are coming off a win over the Cleveland Browns last Sunday to set up this win or take all game in the NFC South. The Panthers have gone under the total in 12 of their last 14 following a win in their previous game. Carolina has also seen their last three meetings go under the total versus the Falcons. Those games had an average total of 46.7, and an average combined score of 40.3 points.

Any team with a total of 42.5 to 49.0 (Carolina), coming off a home win in which they scored 36-points or less and they failed to cover as a favorite, versus an opponent coming off an away underdog straight up win in which they scored 33-points or less, has seen that team go under the total in 31 of those 32-games (96.9%) since 1984. Play on this game to go under the total as my NFL 10* Total of the Year!

12-21-14 Indianapolis Colts v. Dallas Cowboys -3 Top 7-42 Win 100 22 h 34 m Show

Indianapolis @ Dallas 4:25 PM ET
Game# 127-128
Play On: Dallas -3.0 (10*)

The Cowboys came up with a huge 38-27 road win at Philadelphia last week. That win put them in the driver's seat in the NFC East. They can ill afford to let that effort go for naught by losing to the Colts at home on Sunday. Besides, they still have an opportunity to attain the #2 seed in the NFC, and that would afford them a first round bye.

The Colts have already clinched the AFC South. They currently are still alive for the top seed in the AFC. Although those chances are possible but not highly probable. However, I don't have a lot of confidence in the Colts on the road versus a quality opponent. Indianapolis has gone 1-6 SU&ATS since the start of the 2012 season as an away underdog versus an opponent with a winning record.

Any home favorite of 13.0 or less playing in game 13 of the season or beyond, coming off away SU&ATS wins in each of their previous 2-games, they won by 12-points or less while scoring 20-points or more in their previous game, and they have a winning percentage of .600 or better, has seen the home favorite go 16-0 SU&SATS since 1988. The home favorite won those 16-games by an average of 20.4 points per contest.

12-20-14 San Diego Chargers v. San Francisco 49ers -1 Top 38-35 Loss -115 12 h 39 m Show

San Diego @ San Francisco 8:25 PM ET
Game# 103-104
Play On: San Francisco -1.0 (10*)

The 49ers have gone 6-0 SU&ATS in their last 6-games as a home favorite of 7.0 or less following a loss by 5-points or more. The average margin of victory in those contests was 15.8 points per game. This is a very proud organization with a veteran presence on the roster, and they would like nothing more than to inflict damage on the Chargers playoff hopes. Besides, it's not like the Chargers have exactly played like world beaters of late. San Diego has dropped each of their previous 2-games and have been outscored 45-24 in those contests. So much for Philip Rivers great record in the month of December.

Any regular season home favorite or underdog of 2.5 or less, facing a non-division opponent in game 12 of the season or beyond, and they have a winning percentage of .500 or better, versus an opponent with a winning percentage of .615 or less, has seen the home team go a perfect 15-0 SU&ATS since 1982. Play on the San Francisco 49ers as a 10* Top Play.

12-14-14 San Francisco 49ers +10.5 v. Seattle Seahawks Top 7-17 Win 100 42 h 17 m Show

San Francisco @ Seattle 4:25 PM ET
Game# 329-330
Play On: San Francisco +10.0 (10*)

Any road favorite or underdog of 12.5 or less, playing with revenge in game 6 or beyond of the regular season, coming off a road loss by 17-points or less, and they have a winning percentage of .333 or better, versus a divisional opponent with a winning percentage of .50 or better, has seen that road team go 23-1 ATS (95.8%) since 2003. The road team also won 17 of those 24-games (70.8%) outright.

Any away pick or underdog playing in game 11 of the season or beyond with a winning percentage of .510 to .600, coming off a road favorite of -3.0 or greater SU loss, and they've won 14 or more of their last 32-games, versus an opponent with a better than .400 win percentage, has seen that road team go 16-0 ATS since 1988, and they've also won 14 of those 16-games outright. Play on the San Francisco 49ers plus the points as a 10* Top Play selection.

12-14-14 Cincinnati Bengals v. Cleveland Browns Top 30-0 Loss -110 39 h 49 m Show

Cincinnati @ Cleveland 1:00 PM ET
Game# 313-314
Play On: Cleveland  (10*)

The Cleveland Browns enter this week with a 7-6 record, and are clinging to hopes of making the playoffs. The Browns have sustained 3 of those 6-losses by 3-points or less, and each of those 3-games were decided by an opponent’s go ahead score in the waning seconds of the 4th quarter. The highly anticipated Johnny Manziel era is set to begin in Cleveland on Sunday. It would be hard to imagine the highly touted rookie won’t be an upgrade over the struggling Brian Hoyer at this point.

The Bengals endured a meltdown during a 42-21 home loss versus the Steelers last week. Cincinnati entered the 4th quarter leading the Steelers 21-17, and then proceeded to be outscored 25-0 during the final stanza. Andy Dalton continued his erratic play at quarterback by committing a crucial 4th quarter lost fumble that seemed to ignite the Steelers comeback.

Any home team playing in game 13 or beyond of the regular season, and they’re either a pick or a favorite of 8.0 or less, that home team has won 51 of those 65-games (75.8%) straight up since 1982. The straight up results take on added significance considering the point-spread. By the way, in case you’re keeping score at home, the host has also gone 44-21 ATS (67.7%) in those 65-contests. Play on the Cleveland Browns as a 5* selection.

12-07-14 Baltimore Ravens +3 v. Miami Dolphins Top 28-13 Win 100 49 h 1 m Show

Baltimore @ Miami 1:00 PM ET
Game# 151-152
Play On: Baltimore +3.0 (10*)

The Baltimore Ravens let one slip away last week in a 34-33 home loss to the San Diego Chargers. They squandered a 30-20 lead late in the 4th quarter by allowing the Chargers to score a pair of touchdowns in the last 3:40 of the game, including the go ahead score with just 0:38 to play. On a positive note, the Ravens have shown amazing resiliency since John Harbaugh has taken over as their head coach. Baltimore has gone 24-6 since 11/1/2009 following a loss.

Since 10/6/2013, the Dolphins are just 3-4 SU&ATS as a home favorite. Miami has also gone a miserable 9-26 ATS since the start of the 2003 season as a non-division home favorite, and has lost 17 of those 35-games straight up. Miami is coming off a come from behind 16-13 road win over the New York Jets on Monday night.

Recent history isn’t on the Dolphins side in this matchup. Since 11/11/2012, teams coming off a Monday night road win have gone a horrible 1-16 ATS in their following game. Carrying that scenario one step further, if a team is an underdog of favorite of 7.0 or less in their next game following that Monday night road win, they’ve gone a pathetic 0-11 ATS during that same time frame, and lost 10 of those 11-games outright. Play on the Baltimore Ravens plus the points as a 10* Top Play selection.

11-30-14 Carolina Panthers +3 v. Minnesota Vikings Top 13-31 Loss -135 20 h 15 m Show

Carolina @ Minnesota 1:00 PM ET
Game# 467-468
Play On: Carolina +2.5 (10*)

Any road favorite or underdog of 3.0 or less, playing in game 9 of the season or beyond, coming off a ATS win but a straight up loss in which they allowed 34-points or less, and has a winning percentage of .600 or less, versus an opponent with a winning percentage of .100 or better, has gone 37-9 ATS (86%) since 1992. The road team also went 38-5 (88.4%) straight up on those contests. Play on the Carolina Panthers as a 10* Top Play selection.

11-27-14 Philadelphia Eagles v. Dallas Cowboys -3 Top 33-10 Loss -115 19 h 31 m Show

Philadelphia @ Dallas 4:30 PM ET
Game# 307-308
Play On: Dallas -3.0 (10*)

Any division home favorite (Dallas) playing in game 9 of the season or beyond, coming off an away favorite straight up win in which they failed to cover,, and they have a winning percentage of better than .625, versus an opponent that scored 16-points or more in their previous game, and they (Philadelphia) has a winning percentage of less than .750, has gone 17-1 ATS since 1992. The home team has won all 18 of those games straight up as well, and that's significant due to the small number we're being asked to cover. Play on the Dallas Cowboys as a 10* Top Play selection.

11-23-14 Arizona Cardinals v. Seattle Seahawks -7 Top 3-19 Win 100 21 h 55 m Show

Arizona @ Seattle 4:05 PM ET
Game# 267-268
Play On: Seattle -7.0

This has the potential to be a statement game for the Seahawks, or could potentially put a severe damper in their postseason aspirations. Seattle is a perfect 7-0 straight up, and 6-1 ATS in their last 7 at home following a loss.

The Cardinals have gone 0-5 SU&ATS in their last 5 as an away underdog of 4.0 or more, versus an opponent with a winning percentage of .400 to .700, and they lost those contests by an average of 22.4 points. This will also be a tough assignment for Cardinals backup quarterback Drew Stanton in what arguably is the most boisterous home crowd in the NFL.

The line should tell you everything you need to know in this game. We have a 6-4 Seattle team as a touchdown favorite versus a 9-1 opponent. The books just don't give money away. Play on the Seattle Seahawks minus the points as a 10* best bet selection.

11-16-14 Detroit Lions v. Arizona Cardinals Top 6-14 Win 100 23 h 57 m Show

Detroit @ Arizona 4:25 PM ET
Game# 471-472
Play On: Arizona  (10*)

Regardless of the Cardinals being without starting quarterback Carson Palmer, this is too much value for me to ignore. The Cardinals have won 12 of their last 15 home games, and covered in 10 of those contests. As a matter of fact, Arizona has gone a perfect 5-0 SU&ATS in their last 5 non-division home games as a favorite or underdog of 3.0 or less, and won those 5 contests by an average of 11.8 points per contest. The Cardinals backup quarterback Drew Stanton takes over for the injured Palmer once again, and he's already 2-1 as a starter this season. The Lions have gone a dismal 3-20 ATS in their last 23-games as an away favorite or underdog of 3.0 or less.

Any non-division home pick or favorite of 6.0 or less with a better than .333 winning percentage, coming off a home favorite ATS win, versus an opponent coming off a home favorite of 10.5 or less ATS win in which they covered by 8.0 or less, and they have a winning percentage of .555 or better, has gone 21-2 SU&ATS since 1983. Play on the Arizona Cardinals as a 10* Top Play selection.

11-13-14 Buffalo Bills +7 v. Miami Dolphins Top 9-22 Loss -140 25 h 12 m Show

Buffalo @ Miami 8:20 PM ET
Game# 309-310
Play On: Buffalo +6.0 (10*)

The Bills have been solid on the road this season going 3-1 SU&ATS, and all 4 of those games have came as an underdog. Buffalo leads the NFL with 34-sacks, and they will be facing a patchwork Miami offensive line. Buffalo has won 3 straight over Miami including a 29-10 lopsided victory over the Dolphins in week 2 at Ralph Wilson stadium. Miami has gone a dismal 1-15 ATS, and 2-14 straight up as a home favorite of 7.0 or less, coming off a loss, versus an opponent with a winning percentage of less than .625.

Any away underdog of 6.0 or less with a winning percentage of less than .666, coming off a home favorite straight up loss in which they scored 13-points or less, and allowed 13-points or more, versus an opponent with a winning percentage of .300 or better, coming off a loss, has gone 38-3 ATS (92.7%) since 1984. The underdog has won 27 of those 41-games outright. Play on the Buffalo Bills as a 10* Top Play selection.

11-09-14 NY Giants v. Seattle Seahawks -8 Top 17-38 Win 100 21 h 51 m Show

Giants @ Seahawks 4:25 PM ET
Game# 269-270
Play On: Seahawks -8.0 (10*)

Seattle is due to really crush somebody, and the Giants are ripe for the taking. The G-Men were embarrassed on last Monday night before a national television audience in a 40-24 home loss to the Colts. It's no secret the Seahawks have vastly underachieved so far this season, and with the 2nd half of the season about to begin, I look for Pete Carroll's team to ratchet up the intensity. The Seahawks have one of the strongest home fields in the NFL right now, going 20-2 at Century Link Field since the start of the 2012 season. Contrarily, the Giants have gone 4-12 in their last 16 road games, including 0-5 SU&ATS in the last 5 when facing an opponent with a winning percentage of better than .600., and they lost those 5-games by an average of 22.0 points.

Any home favorite of 8.0 to 11.5 playing in games 2 through 15 of the season, coming off a win in which they scored 30-points or more, and they've won 26 or less of their last 32 home games, versus an opponent coming off a loss by 10-points or more, and that opponent has a winning percentage of less than .545, has gone 30-3 ATS (90.9%) since 1997. Play on the Seahawks minus the points as a 10* Top Play selection.

11-02-14 San Diego Chargers v. Miami Dolphins OVER 44.5 Top 0-37 Loss -110 19 h 25 m Show

San Diego @ Miami 1;00 PM ET
Game# 451-452
Play On: Over 44.5 (10*)

The Chargers have gone over the total in their last 10-games as an away underdog following a straight up loss. The average total score of those 10-games was 64.5 points. The Dolphins have gone over the total in each of their 4 home games this season. The average score in those 4-games was 51.3 points. The Dolphins will definitely being attacking a banged up Chargers secondary. The Dolphins special teams coverage units have been poor to this point of the season. I look for Philip Rivers to have a huge game in this one, and Ryan Tannehill will do his share to help our cause.

Any non-division away underdog with a total of 50.0 or less, coming off a game in which they scored 21 or more and allowed 35 or more, they went over the total of 48.0 or more in the previous game, has gone 12-0 over the total since 1980. Those 12-games have averaged 58.5 points per game. Play on the Chargers and Dolphins to go over the total as a 10* Top Play selection.

Green Bay @ New Orleans 8:30 PM ET
Game# 275-276
Play On: New Orleans -1.0 (10*)

Beware of a wounded animal, and the Saints are hurting, but are still extremely dangerous at home. New Orleans has gone a terrific 23-6 ATS in their last 29 as a home favorite, and that includes winning 25 of those 29 straight up. The Saints have gone a perfect 11-0 SU&ATS in the last 11 as a home favorite of 11.0 or less following a loss. They won those 8-games by an average of 20.0 per contest. The Saints are 2-0 at home so far in 2014, but have gone a dismal 0-4 on the road. Those losses are a bit deceiving since 3 of the 4 came by 3-points or less. New Orleans is one of a handful of teams that can go blow for blow offensively with the Packers.

Any home favorite of 9.5 or less, versus an opponent that's gone 3-0 SU&ATS in their last 3-games as a favorite in each of those contests, and they have at least 1- loss on the season, has gone 10-0 SU&ATS since 1980. The home favorite won those 10-contests by an average of 14.4 points points per game. Play on the New Orleans Saints as a my 10* NFL Game of the Month.

The Packers have gone 15-2 ATS in their last 17-games as a home favorite of 6.5 to 13.0, and they scored 39-points or less in their previous game. They've also gone a perfect 9-0 SU&ATS in that same identical situation is they won straight up in their previous game, and they won those 9-games by an average of 27.8 points. The Panthers have managed to get off to a very good start to the season, despite a defense that's regressed dramatically compared to the stellar unit from a season ago.

Any non-division home favorite of 5.0 or more that's gone 3-0 SU&ATS in their previous 3-games, they were a favorite in their previous game and scored 37-points or less, they've lost at least 1-game on the season, versus an opponent that has a winning percentage of better than .333, has gone 15-0 SU&ATS since 1981. The home favorite won those 15-games by an average of 21.9 points per game. Play on the Green Bay Packers minus the points as a 10* Top Play selection.

Jets @ Patriots 8:20 PM ET
Game# 303-304
Play On: Jets +10.5 (10*)

The weather forecast for game time is a a 90% chance of heavy thunderstorms and winds of 8 to 10 miles per hour. That definitely will affect the Patriots passing game. Running the ball hasn't been their calling card this season although they've had some moderate success at times. The Jets have been stout against the run this season ranking 8th best in the NFL. The vulnerability of the Jets stop unit is in their secondary, and the conditions may save that unit from being exposed. The Patriots huge win at Buffalo came at a heavy cost. They lost leading rusher Stevan Ridley for the year with a knee injury, along with their leading tackler Jerod Mayo who also suffered a season ending knee injury. This is one of those scenarios if it looks to good to be true, well than it is.

Any division away underdog of 3.0 or more that has a win percentage of .500 or less, versus an opponent coming off a division away underdog straight up win in which they scored 13-points or more, in addition to covering by 10.0 or more, and it’s game 3 or beyond in the season, has gone 43-5 (89.6%) ATS since 1980. The underdog has also gone 24-24 straight up in those games.

Play On: Cleveland -1.0 (10*)

The Browns will be riding the momentum from overcoming a 28-3 deficit at Tennessee last week to win 29-28. Speaking of comebacks, they were down 27-3 at the half in their season opener at Pittsburgh, rallied to tie the game, only to lose the game 30-27 on a field goal as time expired in the 4th quarter. As a matter of fact both Browns losses came in identical fashion, with the margin of victory being on a field goal in the final play of regulation time. The Steelers come off two unimpressive performances in a row. They're ripe for the taking. The Browns are battle tested with all 4 of their games decided by 3-points or less.

Any division home favorite of 2.5 or less that's playing playing with revenge in addition to no rest, coming off a win by 22-points or less, they have a .500 or better winning percentage, versus an opponent coming off a win, has gone 21-1 straight up since 1987. The home favorite has also gone a very good 20-2 ATS in those 22-games. Play on the Cleveland Browns as a 10* Top Play selection.

Kansas City @ San Francisco 4:25 ET
Game# 471-472
Play On: San Francisco -5.0 (10*)

The Chiefs are coming off a pair of lopsided straight up underdog wins over the Dolphins and the Patriots. They're about to get a dose of reality when they travel to the west coast on Sunday to take on a 49ers. San Francisco played its best game of the early season last Sunday in a 26-21 wins over the Eagles. The 21-points that the Eagles scored last week was a bit deceiving. The scores came on a punt return, an interception return, and a blocked punt recovered in the end zone. The potent Eagles offense failed to account for any points in the game. As a matter of fact, they were held to a mere 11 first downs, and a paltry 213-yards of total offense. The 49ers also racked up 407-yards on offense, rushed for 218, and were a +3 in the turnover department.

Any home favorite of 3.5 or more that's won 19 or more of their last 32-games, coming off a SU&ATS win, versus an opponent coming off a home underdog straight up win in which they scored 22-points or more, and they have a .500 or better win percentage, has gone 25-5 ATS (83.3%) since 1985. Play on the San Francisco 49ers minus the points as a 10* Top Play selection.

Eagles @ 49ers 4:25 PM ET
Game#267-268
Play On: 49ers -4.5 (10*)

I expect that a lot of bettors have fell off the 49ers bandwagon. That's just the way I like it. Granted the 49ers have some deficiencies on defense compared to recent years. However this is still a very good football team, and is very capable of hanging a big number on the board offensively. After looking horrible in attempting to stop the run during their season opening loss to Buffalo, the 49ers have allowed an average of just 2.9 yards per rush in their previous 2-games. They hold a huge +2.9 rush differential over the Eagles heading into this game. The Eagles are coming off consecutive 3-point wins, and had to rally from 17-0 down in their season opener versus Jacksonville. I'm sure there will be many out there that are thinking they're getting an absolute steal with the Eagles this week. I'm not one of them.

Any home favorite of 9.5 or less in game 4 of the season or beyond, coming off a straight up favorite loss, versus an opponent coming off 2 or more wins in a row, and they scored 35-points or more in their previous game, 16-1 SU&ATS since 1984. Play on the 49ers minus the points as a 10* Top Play selection.

Game# 471-472
Play On: Arizona +3.0 (10*)

The general public seems to think they're getting an absolute steal with the highly regarded 49ers, versus an opponent playing with a backup quarterback. However, to steal a familiar quote from ESPN college football analyst Lee Corso, "not so fast my friend". I said this last week, and I will say it again, the 49ers have flaws on the defensive side of the ball that wasn't apparent last season. They're secondary is extremely vulnerable, and the Cowboys Demarco Murray ran for 127-years against them in the season opener. San Francisco was a -4 turnover differential last week in route to blowing a 17-0 lead, and losing 28-20 against a banged up Bears team. They will be facing a Cardinals team that's gone 5-0 SU&ATS in their last 5 as a home underdog of 4.0 or less, and won those games by an average of 9.4 points.

Any division home underdog of 5.0 or less, coming off an away underdog straight up win that the covered by 25.0 or less, and they've lost to their current opponent the last 3 or more times in a row, has gone 22-2 ATS since 1990. The underdog has won 18 of those 24-games outright. Play on the Arizona Cardinals plus the points as a 10* Top Play selection.

Play On: Jets +8.5 (10*)

The Packers are much better than they showed against the Seahawks in their season opening blowout loss in front of a national audience. After all, they're not the first team that's looked less than average versus Pete Carroll's club in recent years. Contrarily, I also think the Jets are the type of defensive team that can give the potent offensive attack of the Packers some issues. I'm of the opinion that Rex Ryan's team is undervalued in this spot. This game will go down to the wire, I wouldn't be shocked if the Jets get the outright win, but I'll take the points as an additional bonus.

Any away underdog of 2.0 to 9.5 versus an opponent that comes off an away underdog ATS loss in which they allowed 35-points or more and failed to cover by 10.0 or more, they're playing in game 2 through 15 of the season, and has won 18 or more of their last 32-games, has gone 30-9 ATS since 1986. The underdog also won 20 of those 39-games outright. Play on the New York Jets plus the points as a 10* Top Play selection.

Play On: Arizona -3.0 (10*)

This game takes on an interesting story line. We have one team (Arizona) that has a chip on their shoulder after failing to make the playoffs a season ago despite winning 10-games. The other team sneaked into the playoffs with only 9-wins on the last day of the season when everything fell their way. This is a vastly underrated Cardinals team in my opinion that will be out to make a statement this evening in front of a national television audience. Arizona has gone 9-1 SU&ATS in their last 10 at home as an underdog or favorite of 3.0 or less. The Chargers are a dismal 1-6 SU&ATS in their last 7 as a regular season non-division road underdog of 6.5 or less.

Any home favorite of 5.0 or less that's playing in their season opener, and they won 10 or more games in the previous season, versus an opponent that won 9-games or more in the previous year, has gone 27-9 (75%) ATS since the start of the 1987 season.

Game# 461/462
Play On: Seattle -5.0 (10*)

The Seahawks have been the most dominant team in the NFL over the last 2-seasons. They've gone a stellar 17-1 at Century Link Field and have covered 13 of those 18-games. As a matter of fact, as a home favorite of 7.5 or less, they've gone a perfect 6-0 SU& ATS in their last 6-games, and won those 6 by an average of 22.0 points per game. You also may be surprised to know that the Packers have gone a dismal 1-8 SU&ATS in their last 9-games as an underdog.

Thursday night opening game home favorites have gone a perfect 10-0 straight up, and a very profitable 6-1-3 ATS since the inception of the annual affair. Since the 2004 season, Thursday night non-division home favorites of 4.0 or more have gone a superb 16-5 ATS (76.2%), and have won 20 of the 21-games straight up.

02-02-14 Seattle Seahawks v. Denver Broncos -2 Top 43-8 Loss -113 27 h 10 m Show
In my humble opinion the #1 offense of Denver, versus the #1 defense of Seattle, will cancel each other out. The Broncos defense has played far better than the Seattle offense down the stretch of the regular season, and in the playoffs. Giving Peyton Manning 2 weeks to prepare in any situation isn't good for an opposing defense, let alone in a game of this magnitude.

Any Super Bowl favorite of 12.0 or less and a total of 47.0 or more, and their coming off a home favorite ATS win, has gone 5-0 SU&ATS since 1984. They've won those 5-games by an average of 20.4 points per game. Play on the Denver Broncos as a 10* Best Bet selection.
01-19-14 San Francisco 49ers v. Seattle Seahawks -3 Top 17-23 Win 100 47 h 56 m Show
The Seahawks are 8-1 at home this season, and dating back to last they've gone 16-1 in their last 17 at Seattle. Included in those home victories were a pair of wins versus the 49ers winning 29-3 this season, and 42-13 in 2012. Both of those wins came before a national prime time audience. This will be the same, with the only difference being the stakes are much higher. Seattle is a perfect 6-0 SU&ATS the last years in the 2nd half of the season versus opponents that average 130 or more yards per game rushing.

San Francisco is coming off 2 straight playoff road wins to advance the the NFC Championship Game. The postseason hasn't been kind to teams that have taken a similar path. As a matter of fact playoff away underdogs of between 3.5 to 7.0, that come of 2 playoff road wins in a row, have gone 0-6 SU & ATS since the beginning of the 1987 season. In addition the 49ers have caught two very fortunate draws in the first 2 rounds the this seasons playoffs. They defeated a mediocre at best Green Bay team, who won the NFC North pretty much by default, after both Detroit and Chicago fell apart down the stretch. The last week they defeated a Carolina team that overachieved this season, and had very little playoff experience on their roster.

Any home favorite of between 3.5 to 10.0 that has a winning record on the season, versus an opponent coming off 2 straight road wins in their previous 2- games, has gone 24-5 ATS (82.8%) since the beginning of the 1983 season.

01-11-14 Indianapolis Colts v. New England Patriots -7 Top 22-43 Win 100 23 h 10 m Show
This is a New England team that's gone 40-6 in their last 46, and 58-9 in their last 67 home games under the guidance of head coach Bill Belichick. The Patriots are also 11-1 in their last 12 home games following a bye week under Belichick. There's no doubt that the Colts have been a whole different team since Andrew Luck came into the picture in 2012. However, they're still a dismal 1-5 SU&ATS on the road during that period versus an opponent with a winning record. Their comeback versus Kansas City last week was of epic proportions. In my opinion they will be emotionally spent this week on the road, versus an opponent that's rested, and in one of the more tougher stadiums to win at in the NFL.

Any home favorite or more that's playing in game 11 of the season or beyond, and they have a better than .666 winning percentage, versus an opponent coming off a home underdog straight up win, and they have a winning record on the season, has gone 20-1 ATS since the beginning of the 1981 season. If that home favorite of 4.0 or more is coming off a bye week, they improve to 11-0 SU&ATS, and win by an average of 21.6 points per game, since the beginning of the 1980 season.

The Rams suffered a crushing blow to their season in their previous game when Sam Bradford injured his knee and was ruled out for the season. There's a huge drop off from Bradford to backup Kellen Clemens which will be even more evident versus a suffocating Seattle defense. The novelty of the Rams hosting their first Monday night game since 2006 is diminished by the fact the Cardinals will be hosting game 5 of the World Series tonight.

Seattle has shed the tag of being a team that can just win at home. The Seahawks have won 6 of their last 8 road games, including going a perfect 5-0 SU&ATS in their last 5 when playing an opponent with a less than .750 winning percentage. Seattle has owned St. Louis over the last 8 seasons winning 14 of the 16 meetings between these two clubs. Seattle comes off an impressive win on the road versus an underrated Arizona Cardinals team. The Seahawks easily covered that contest as a 4.5 point favorite winning 34-22. History is on Seattle's side as away favorites of 4.5 or more, that come off an away favorite ATS win, and have a winning percentage of better than .846 are a very profitable 30-12 ATS (71.4%) since the start of the 1980 season. That exact scenario has been even stronger since 2003 as the away favorite of 4.5 or more has gone an excellent 14-2 ATS.

The Browns come off a confidence building upset win at Minnesota a week ago. The insertion of quarterback Brian Hoyer seemed to breathe new life into an offense that was anemic in the first 2 games of the season. Cincinnati comes off two big home wins versus Pittsburgh in a Monday night nationally televised game, then last week's stirring come from behind win versus Green Bay in which they overcame a 16-point 2nd half deficit. With another marquee game versus New England next week I fully expect the Bengals to be flat in this spot.

Any division home underdog of 8.0 or less that comes off a straight up win, versus an opponent coming off a home underdog of +9.5 or less straight up win in which they scored 38-points or less is 13-0 ATS since 1985. The home underdog won 12 of those 13 games outright.

The Giants have been an absolute cash cow as an underdog with Tom Coughlin as their head coach. New York is an extremely profitable 25-13 ATS since the start of the 2007 season when cast into the role of an underdog, including 8-2 SU&ATS in the last 10. Despite turning the ball over 5 times in last week's opening game loss at Dallas the Giants still had a chance in the final minutes to pull the game out. Denver looked magnificent especially on offense in their season opening rout of Baltimore. Unfortunately for them history isn't on their side. Teams that open their season on a Thursday night with a win are 0-6 ATS all time in the following week. I wouldn't be the least bit shocked to get the outright win in this one but I will gladly take the points as an additional bonus. Play on the New York Giants as a 10* Best Bet selection.

The Falcons are 38-8 SU in their last 46 home games. If you factor in the fact they're the home underdog, the amount of points they're receiving, and the magnitude of this contest it adds up to a ton of value. In addition Atlanta will have a huge chip on their shoulders considering in spite of their 14-3 record on the year they've not been shown the respect that usually comes along with that kind of year. In addition the general public has had a tendency to fade the Falcons all season and most especially in the latter part of the year.

The Packers have won those 10 games by an average of 12.9 points per game. This is a Green Bay team that's peaking at the right time and became very healthy at playoff time. San Francisco hasn't been as dominate late in the year as they were early on. The 49ers rely heavily on a staunch defense and that unit has been very good for the better part of the year. However over their last 3 games they allowed an average of 29.7 points and 376.0 yards per game. This will be the first career playoff start for 49ers quarterback Colin Kapernick.

01-06-13 Indianapolis Colts v. Baltimore Ravens -6.5 Top 9-24 Win 100 42 h 44 m Show
Indy enters this game having won 5 of their last 6 regular season games on the way to a shocking 11-5 record. The Ravens still won the AFC North in spite of losing 4 of their last 5 games. In spite of all that the books have deemed the Ravens a touchdown favorite. Rest assured it's not Christmas in Las Vegas and the books aren't handing out gifts. Baltimore will get a huge emotional lift with the return of veteran linebacker and inspirational leader Ray Lewis. Lewis has already indicated that he will be retiring at the end of this season. That motivation in addition to one of the better home field advantages in the NFL will pay huge dividends.

Any non-division playoff home favorite of 4.0 or more versus an opponent coming off a home underdog SU win, and has a winning percentage of better than .625 is 11-0 SU&ATS since 1984.

Somehow the Jets find themselves right in the thick of the AFC Wild Card race. They do need some help over the last 2 weeks from notably opponents of the Steelers and Bengals. However one thing is certain it will all be a moot point if they don't win out. If this game was played 4 or 5 weeks ago the Jets would've been anywhere for a 3.0 to 4.0 point favorite. In spite of their struggles they are still the superior team in this contest and coupling that with the degree of urgency it adds up to a winner!

The Rams come in with a ton of confidence and are still alive in the NFC wild Card race. Minnesota is a paltry 5-21 SU in their last 26 road games including 1-12 in the last 13 following a SU win. Christian Ponder has steadily regressed at quarterback and has no help at the receiver position. The Rams defense will play 8 men in the box to slow down Adrian Peterson and force Ponder to beat them.

The Eagles have gone over the total in their last 4 home games this season with an average combined score of 52.3 ppg. The Bengals have been dominating defensively at home but very average on the road. In the Bengals 6 road games the average combined total score has been 48.0 ppg.

The weather forecast calls for this game to be played in less than ideal conditions which will obviously favor the Patriots in that regard. There are two premier bad weather quarterbacks in the NFL one of them plays in Green Bay (Aaron Rodgers) and the other is Tom Brady of New England. This line jumped right off the board at me considering you have an 11-1 team this late in the season, as an underdog of this size, and they

The Ravens are no longer that dominating defensive team they have been in years past. However offensively they are more dynamic in every aspect. The Redskins have been stellar against the run but versus the pass they are one of the worst statistically in the NFL. What more can you say about the Redskins prized rookie quarterback Robert Griffin III. He has brought an element to the offense that makes it quite difficult for opposing defenses to stop.

The Saints are a perfect 9-0 SU&ATS in their last 9 games following a SU loss versus a team with a winning percentage of .500 or better. New Orleans has won those 9 games by an average of 13.6 ppg. The Saints have defeated the Falcons in 10 of their last 12 meetings including 5 of the last 6 at Atlanta.

In a short work week in a battle of two teams going nowhere, I favor the home team simply due to the fact they don't have travel. In addition the Bills played both New England and Houston arguably the two best teams in the AFC very tough the last 2 weeks. Contrarily Miami was just crushed last week as a home 37-3 versus a less than stellar Tennessee team.
