There are a lot of quality plays this week. Here are my picks. Penn State at Illinois (+28, 59.5): Penn State has been an awesome play the last two weeks but that was at home. Things could be different on the road against an improved Illini team primed for an upset. I’m taking Illinois as a home dog. Washington State at USC (-3.5, 53): True freshmen quarterback J.T Daniels has struggled the past two weeks but…

Dime Package: Ten Thoughts on the Week That Was in College Football
Here are some thoughts on the week that was in college football. 1. Alabama is a machine. Period! They absolutely pounded a good Ole Miss team 62-7. 2. I can’t say I’m surprised that Wisconsin lost to BYU. You could see it coming when they fell behind. Wisconsin is not built to come from behind. 3. Florida State has a lot of problems right now on both sides of the…
Patriots Pulse Blog: Josh Gordon Will Make a Big Difference for the Patriots Offensively
The Patriots acquired wide receiver Josh Gordon from the Cleveland Browns this afternoon for a conditional 5th round pick in the 2019 draft. The Browns made Gordon available this past weekend after the team decided to move on from the talented but troubled receiver. The Patriots were clearly in need of an upgrade at the receiver position.

Patriots Pulse Recap: Jaguars 31 Patriots 20
Game Rewind: The Jaguars beat the Patriots 31-20 in a game the Patriots were never seemingly in. After jumping out to a 14-0 lead, the Jaguars took control and never looked back. Here are my five thoughts on the game. 1. Sluggish Start: The Patriots got off to a sluggish start. I don’t know if was the heat or the Jaguars wanting it more but the Patriots were not engaged…

Here are five keys for the Patriots. 1. Slow Down Their Pass Rush: The Patriots have to slow down the Jaguars vaunted pass rush. The best way to do it is with max protections, screens and draws. Giving Tom Brady time and…
NFL: Week Two Picks vs. The Spread
Can Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Bucs upset the Eagles today? It will make for a great story if they do. It’s week two folks and here are my picks against the spread for this week. Remember. This is just for recreational purposes. Panthers (+6) at Falcons: The Falcons defense lost arguably it’s two best defensive players for the season when Deion Jones and Keanu Neal got hurt last week. That makes…
College Football: Week 3 Top Picks vs. The Spread
Oklahoma at Iowa State (+17.5, 55): Oklahoma rolled through Florida Atlantic and UCLA but something tells me they’ll have a hard time beating an Iowa State team in Ames by more than 14 points. I know the Sooners have revenge on their minds after losing to the Cyclones last season in Norman, but that won’t matter. Miami (Fla.) at Toledo (+10, 57.5): I cant believe Miami is traveling to Toledo. It makes zero sense to…
