This Week: 0-1
Last Week: 8-8
Overall: 93-95-6
JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS (-4) over Oakland Raiders
Peyton Manning almost collapsing against a Kerry Collins lead Titans team will only fuel the Jaguars’ fire. They can smell the division title.
PITTSBURGH STEELERS (-8.5) over Cincinnati Bengals
Every Bengal coach and player knows that next season will bring great change. But this season has no [...]

Dylan’s NFL Picks Against The Spread, Week 13

This week: 0-1
Last Week: 9-7
Overall: 85-87-6
Buffalo Bills (+5.5) over MINNESOTA VIKINGS
Betting against Ryan Fitzpatrick to cover the spread is like betting that Josh McDaniels will be the long-term coach of the Denver Broncos. Sure, it’s a possibility, but do you really want to put your money in the hands of the illegal video taping, handshake [...]

WASHINGTON REDSKINS (-1) over Minnesota Vikings
Can Leslie Frazier pull a Jason Garrett and reinvigorate the corpse of Brett Favre and the [...]

Dylan’s NFL Picks Against The Spread, Week 11

Last Week: 5-9
Overall: 65-72-6
Oakland Raiders (+7) over Pittsburgh Steelers
Jason Campbell’s transformation from goat to hero in a mere two weeks has been remarkable. On the surface, Al Davis’ trade for Campbell did seem like a typical Davis player: strong armed QB with few other talents. After the first three weeks, everyone laughed as another Davis [...]

Dylan’s NFL Picks Against The Spread, Week 10

Trent Dilfer made some interesting comments earlier this week on Colin Cowherd’s The Herd, claiming that Mark Sanchez is, based on the tape, in the top 1/3 of NFL quarterbacks. My first reaction to his words was some combination of utter astonishment and surprise.
Of all ESPN NFL analysts, Dilfer seems to have the most realistic [...]

Dylan’s NFL Picks Against The Spread, Week 8

Last Week: 5-9
Overall: 46-53-5
(home team in caps, game pick in bold)
Denver Broncos (+1) over SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS
Troy Smith and Ted Ginn Jr. claim that they can rekindle their Ohio State fire and previous chemistry. Yet they fail to recognize three key factors that will lead to their demise:
1) The NFL requires wide receivers to run [...]

Overall: 41-44-5
Pittsburgh Steelers (-3) over MIAMI DOLPHINS
The award for least recognizable coach in the NFL has officially gone to Tony Sparano. Unless you are a die-hard football fan, there is no way you recognize him sitting at the end of the bar alone drinking Captain Morgan. Then again, why would you want to [...]

Dylan’s NFL Picks Against The Spread, Week 6

Last Week: 5-9
Overall: 34-39-3
5-9 in Week 5 was not the highlight of my gambling season. I do, however, find some comfort in the fact that 4 games easily could have gone the other way.
1) Dwight Lowery’s game-sealing and spread-covering interception.
2) Mason Crosby field goal off the post for the win and the cover.
3) Alex Smith [...]

Last Week : 8-6
Overall : 29-30-3
One more week above .500 and I will have regained respectability. So raise your glasses to my finally deserving your respect and becoming the quality NFL picks guy that I should be.
Anyway, to the picks.
Denver Broncos (+7) over BALTIMORE RAVENS
After 4 weeks, Baltimore’s games have been decided by a combined [...]

Dylan’s NFL Picks Against The Spread, Week 4

Last Week: 8-8
Overall: 21-24
TENNESSEE TITANS (-6.5) over Denver Broncos
I’m picking Tennessee by default here. Denver’s 23 ranked pass defense should aid Vince McCain (I refuse to believe that I’m the first to notice that Young throws like John McCain post-war). The process leading to McDaniels’ demise is under way, and the over/under for games until [...]

Dylan’s NFL Picks Against The Spread, Week 3

Last Week: 5-9-2
Overall: 13-16-3
If you dare to uncover the secrets of the football Gods, you must emulate a quarterback by having a short memory. No matter how much you prepare for and understand the matchup at hand, Sunday is always the great and unpredictable equalizer. So here’s to me forgetting my regrettable Week 2 performance [...]

Dylan’s NFL Picks Against The Spread, Week 2

Last Week: 8-7-1
Overall: 8-7-1
I had a sandwich for lunch today. And not just any sandwich, but grilled chicken with lettuce, tomato, onion and honey mustard. The process by which I arrived at this decision was more complicated than I expected. With so many deli sandwich options to consider, I had to take my time.
Ultimately, some [...]
