Week 17 National Football League Picks
My Picks Week 10: 3-2 (60.0%) Overall: 40-34-1 (54.1%) BDC Lock of the Week Last Week: 1-0 Overall: 8-7 (53.3%) Week 16 Whiffs: — I thought Russell Wilson would go off a bit against the Bears. He didn’t, and they lost straight up. — I wrote this piece last week before we knew Tyler Huntley would miss the game for the Ravens. I’m not sure Lamar at his best would have made a difference on Sunday for the Ravens though.
The Back Door Cover: Week 16 NFL Picks
My Picks Week 10: 4-1 (80.0%) Overall: 37-32-1 (53.6%) BDC Lock of the Week Last Week: 1-0 Overall: 7-7 (50.0%) Week 15 Whiffs: — I overvalued New England and their ability to stop Jonathan Taylor. He made me pay, but on the bright side, we had a 4-1 week. Through Week 15, here are the ATS Rankings: As always, here is probably the most important line that you will read: Disclaimer: Please do not take these picks and expect to make any real money.
The Back Door Cover: Week 15 NFL Picks
My Picks Week 10: 3-2 (60.0%) Overall: 33-31-1 (51.6%) BDC Lock of the Week Last Week: 0-1 Overall: 6-7 (46.2%) Week 14 Whiffs: — Yet another whiff on my lock of the week. In what was a big game for Cincinnati to potentially take a lead in the AFC North, they squandered the chance in overtime. — The Ravens’ game looked like a guaranteed Cleveland cover early, but they clawed their way back and barely squeaked out a half-point cover.
The Back Door Cover on Russell Street Report, Week 14
My Picks Week 10: 2-3 (40.0%) Overall: 30-29-1 (50.8%) BDC Lock of the Week Last Week: 0-1 Overall: 6-6 (50.0%) Week 13 Whiffs: — Make that three straight locks whiffed on. So let’s remember now, after an AFC North game, Cincinnati doesn’t show up. Memo received. — Poor Minnesota. Even without Dalvin Cook, a loss to the Lions doesn’t bode well for their playoff chances.
National Football League Week 13 Picks
My Picks Week 10: 2-4 (33.3%) Overall: 28-26-1 (51.9%) BDC Lock of the Week Last Week: 0-1 Overall: 6-5 (54.5%) Week 12 Whiffs: — Two straight locks I have whiffed on. If you would have told me Philly was going to hold the Giants to 13 points, I would have bet the house. — The Rams had an opportunity to make a statement in the NFC with Aaron Rodgers (supposedly) ailing from a toe injury. Instead, they let the Pack put up 38 on them.

Coming off their bye, I thought they would come out hot. Joke’s on me. — I vastly underestimated the Titans. I thought without King Henry that they would fall hard. Color me impressed.
The Back Door Cover: Week 9 NFL Picks
My Picks Last Week: 2-3 (40.0%) Overall: 20-19-1 (51.3%) BDC Lock of the Week Last Week: 1-0 Overall: 5-3 (62.5%) Week 8 Whiffs: — I had the Lions getting their first win of the season against the Eagles. Should have known to never bet on Detroit. — Something is wrong in Kansas City. There is no way the Giants should have been in that game as long as they were.
