Travel update - last day in Cancun today and Iโll be heading home tomorrow. I need to be up at like 4 am Cancun time and I wonโt be back in Boston until 4 pm EST. I am planning on releasing tomorrowโs picks before I go to bed tonight so you guys will be good to go but my responses to your DMs will be delayed tomorrow.
NFL:
Giants / Falcons Over (53) - The 1-5 Giants will head into Atlanta to play the 2-4 Falcons tonight in a game thatโs tough to get excited for. However, I think this one will be entertaining because it should be high scoring. The Giants defense comes in allowing 27 points per game and the Falcons D is allowing 32 points per game. The Giants have struggled to score in a few games this year but the good news for them is that they get to go up against the 2nd worst defense in the league when it comes to points allowed per game. The Falcons offense should do their part for us by putting up points, they have put up 30+ four times this season. I like the over in this one.
NHL:
Jets (-160) - I like the Jets at home in this spot when they host a Blues team who hasnโt really gotten anything good going this year. The Jets are 5-2-1 on the season but the more important number is that they are 4-1 at home.
Capitals (-155) - This one goes against everything I usually do when giving picks but Iโm feeling the Caps tonight because they are too good of a team to keep struggling like they have been. They will be on the road tonight against a Canucks team who has won 4 of their last 5 and 3 of those wins were on the road. The Caps have lost 3 of their last 5. I think they will get a big win tonight to turn the struggles around.
NBA:
Spurs (-1) - It looks like the Lakers will be without two starters tonight after Rajon Rondo and Brandon Ingram threw punches in Saturday nights game against the Rockets. The Lakers come in 0-2 and have lost both games by 9 points. We have bet against LeBron in his first two games as a Laker and we have won both. Iโve said he doesnโt have the pieces he needs to compete this year and tonight will be even more tough without two starters. 73% of the public think the Lakers will win this game and are putting their money on it, not us though. Go Spurs!
