NFL Picks 2021: Week 7

-Originally published 10/22/21- Bye weeks: Bills, Cowboys, Vikings, Steelers, Chargers, JaguarsA bad bad football week. The matchups aren’t very exciting in the NFL or College. This is a good weekend to do Halloween activities. Several of the top squads with the Bills, Chargers, and Cowboys are all off. Last week saw the Jags grab win #1 over the Dolphins and the Bills got upset by the Titans as highlights. 8 wins by double-digits killed the Sunday excitement. Cowboys/Patriots heading to…

NFL Picks 2021: Week 6

-Originally published 10/15/21- Fresh Squeezed 1pm – Chargers (4-1) @ Ravens (4-1)Justin Herbert and Lamar Jackson are two of the front runners for MVP in the top game of the day. LA has a top-10 offense, top-10 in points scored, the defense is top-10 for fewest passing yards allow, they’re top half of the league in takeaways and bottom half in giveaways and grabbed wins over Washington, Kansas City, Las Vegas and Cleveland 47-42 last week with 398 yards and…

NFL Picks 2021: Week 5

-Originally published 10/7/21- Week 5 NFL Picks Fresh SqueezedTNF – Rams (3-1) @ Seahawks (2-2)LA was popped by the MVP in-the-running Kyler Murry and the Cards last week 37-20. Aaron Donald had a horrible game last week and the defense will have to keep up with another top QB. They can recover against Seattle this week with multiple running backs probably out and the Rams Oline should be able to keep Stafford clean.Pick: Rams 4pm – Browns (3-1) @ Chargers…

NFL Picks 2021: Week 4

-Originally published 10/1/21- This week we have a lot of top-tier games and a lot of stinkers. Even our check-in middle tier “lower grove” games could be bumped up or down to top-watch (fresh squeezed) or skippable (rotten) viewing.Fresh Squeezed1pm – Panthers (3-0) @ Cowboys (2-1)Pick: CowboysChristian McCaffrey is out for the Panthers but the offense will continue to move without him against the Cowboys defense. Carolina’s offense has real weapons to compete with Dallas for a while and the…

NFL Picks 2021: Week 3

-Originally published 9/26/21- Week 3 Fresh Squeezed1pm – Bears (1-1) @ Browns (1-1)Andy Dolton lost his starting job in an unfortunate way, due to injury, but Justin Fields time is now. Cleveland legitimately has one of the top-5 rosters in the league but the secondary is an issue and Fields will have an opportunity to exploit them. Chicago is holding teams to 71.5 rushing yards and Cleveland is 3rd in the league at 154.5. If I had more belief in Chicago’s…

NFL Picks 2021: Week 2

-Originally published 9/19/21- Fresh SqueezedRams (1-0) @ Colts (0-1) – Sunday, 1pmStafford sure looks sharp doesn’t he? No preseason no problem nuking the Bears 34-14 putting up 321 yards passing and 3 Tds at 12.3 ypa and getting the entire crew, Kupp, Woods, Higbee, Van Jefferson, involved. Hell, DeSean Jackson caught a couple balls. You forgot about him right? Carson Wentz was 25/38 for 251 and 2 Tds in his debut but the offense wasn’t officiant and Russell Wilson picked…

NFL Picks 2020: Week 13

-Originally published 12/6/20- Last week we saw all 32 teams in action over a six-day span. Something we’ll probably never see again. Our usually Thanksgiving triple header became a double and saw the Ravens/Steelers game get bumped twice from Thursday to Monday to Wednesday afternoon as its final playing time due to covid. They were still without Lamar Jackson and several key players as RG III took over as starter (and was injured). The Broncos didn’t follow protocol and all…
