Week 9 NFL Betting Primer: Best Over/Under, Spread, Teaser and Prop Bets
Oof, a rare goose egg came out of last week’s action, though to be fair, that was easily one of the most bizarre football slates any of us had ever seen. When something like Mike White beating the surging Bengals outright to sink our teaser happens, just try to laugh and move on....

Raiders’ problems piling up
The Las Vegas Raiders are in the midst of one of the most tumultuous seasons we’ve ever seen.

NFL Week 9: Backup QBs take their shots at better-than-average .500 teams

What do the Packers and Patriots have in common? Their QBs both got COVID before playing in Kansas City

Let’s not anoint Cooper Kupp the best receiver in the league yet
Los Angeles Rams’ receiver Cooper Kupp is on pace for 1,964 yards in 17 games. The all-time single-season record for receiving yards is, in fact, that same 1,964, and was set in 2012 by former Detroit Lions’ receiver Calvin Johnson. ...

Aaron Rodgers’ misdirection gives Jordan Love the opportunity to shine and couldn’t have come at a better time

Timing could not be worse for Nagy to miss Bears game, win or lose

Thursday Night Football, Week 8: Injuries and COVID — it’s beginning to feel like 2020 again
Thursday Night Football has a reputation for being underwhelming. Just look at the seven Thursday games we’ve had thus far this season.

Odell Beckham Jr. to the Packers?!
An intriguing trade was proposed recently on First Take by Stephen A. Smith, where he lobbied for the Green Bay Packers and Cleveland Browns to make a deal that teams Odell Beckham Jr. with Aaron Rodgers.

He’s right
One of the major tenets of being a sports fan is the conflict you assume with other fandoms. By choosing your side, you actively take up distaste and antipathy for other sides automatically. The back-and-forth is supposed to be part of the fun/misery. And the way these things work, the way sports ar...
