Gobble....Gobble

First off we at Propick Sports would like to wish all of our avid supporters a happy and healthy Thanksgiving. Now lets talk some turkey. Today's NFL action features two highly anticipated games, along with what looks to be a snooze fest between the Cowboys and Dolphins. After crunching the numbers and making the necessary adjustments in this shortened week, we are quite confident that our readers will find themselves flush with cash come later this evening.

Packers and Over...Teased down. Despite failing to cover last Sunday against the Bucs, the Packers have gone through opponents like a hot knife through butter. Rodgers is in a 2007 Tom Brady like zone, and the Lions defensive backfield is a mess. As someone who usually takes the Lions on Turkey day, I must step aside and do the unthinkable- take the road favorite. However, this is the "sharp" way to play it: Tease the Packers down to -.5 and the over 49. Getting 6 points with the Packers and Over should be more than enough cushion. The release: Tease down the Packers and Over.....Gobble Gobble Propick style.

Cowboys vs. Dolphins. At first glance my instinct screamed "stay away". Once the Cowboys got rid of Wade "Wadeface" Phillips, betting these games just hasn't been the same. Constant expressions of dumbfoundedness have been sorely missed. Without an edge I am going to lean with the Cowboys -7 but this is not a strong conviction play. This is strictly a good way to pass the time and avoid those relatives you can do without.

Ravens vs. Niners. The total in this game is 39.5 or 40. Either way the common man has spoke loud and clear: "with both teams having great defenses, the Under is a no brainer". Guess what? The common man is a euphemism for LOSER. I will take the Over despite the myriad of reasons for this game being a low scoring slugfest. As I write this, some radio pundit just predicted a 9-7 game. If you need anymore confirmation that this, you won't find it!

Redemption Day...

After a lackluster performance yesterday, Propick Sports has circled the wagons and are releasing our Big NFL Sunday Night Play. Tonight's Giants vs. Eagles game should be a dogfight (no pun intended). However, with all the injuries to both teams-especially the Eagles, this is a difficult game to call. As a result, we are releasing the Under (45.5) for tonight's game.

Expect the Eagles to try and slow the game down. In addition, the Giants are notorious for struggling inside the red zone. Tonight's release......Under 45.5 total points.

Over-Board......

This is Propick Sports College Football release of the month. In an effort to spread cheer and give thanks, we at Propick are releasing another big totals play. Tonight's matchup between Arizona and Arizona state features what should be a wild west shoot out. However, at a total of 70, the line is begging you to take the under. With that said, I will run in the other direction and take the over.

Tonight's blowout play of the month.....Arizona/Arizona State Over 70.

*Ohio State -6.5 over Penn State. As putrid as Ohio State has looked offensively, I remain confident that Penn State will completely unravel throughout the balance of the season. After battling back and almost pulling out a big win last week at home, expect Penn State to spiral downhill from here. Buckeyes -6.5 over Penn state.

Cowboy Up!

After arriving home less than thirty minutes ago, it is now time for my NFL release.
Today's Bills-Cowboys game features two wide open offenses that are overdue for a breakout game. At 48, the total is begging you to take the Over. Call me a fool but the Over it is.

Game of the Year Release: Over 48 in the Bills- Cowboys game.

Release #2. Bengals +3.5 over the Steelers. At first blush this game is a complete mismatch. The perenial powerhouse Steelers, coming off a bitter loss a week ago, against one of the biggest loser franchises in all of sports. Not so fast my friends. This Pittsburgh team is banged up and are in the unenviable position as road favorites against a feisty young team with an excellent defense. At +3 this game has the earmarks of a push. However at +3.5 I absolutely love it! Close your eyes and take the Bengals, you will thank me later this afternoon.

Bear Trap......

When the line for tonight's matchup between the Eagles and Bears opened with Eagles minus 7.5, I immediately jumped on the hometown Eagles and bought the hook down to an even 7. Like the masses, I too felt like the Eagles had turned the corner last week and salvaged their season with a blowout victory over the Cowboys.

Fast forward to tonight and the Eagles are now laying 8.5 points and the whole world is convinced this is the beginning of a something big. Despite an erratic season thus far, the gambling public is convinced that the Eagles can not only win their division, but also challenge the Packers for the NFC title.

While I am loathe to jump on board the common man bandwagon, I will make a rare exception for tonight. The Bears are walking into a hornets nest tonight and i am expecting a 31-17 type of contest. Tonight's release.....Eagles -8.5 over the Bears.
