Weekly Picks
Still perfect on best bets, but we've got some tricky games this week.
oakland +3 DENVER
I still think the Raiders are a very good team. They got embarrassed in a nationally televised game so bettors fled them. We'll see this week if their offensive line really is that bad.
TAMPA BAY -3 new york giants
I almost never pick against the Giants but they are so brutal this season, this spread seems too good to pass up.
philadelphia +2 LOS ANGELES CHARGERS
The Eagles seems ok, the Chargers seem terrible, and worse yet, they always make mistakes to lose games.
indianapolis +13 SEATTLE
This is just a hunch that the Seahawks offense isn't good enough to put enough points on the board to cover this big number.
BEST BET
jacksonville -3 NEW YORK JETS
The Jets are awful. Don't let one week fool you.
