Predictions

While we all have an opinion on what the 2012/13 Jets record will be, Las Vegas (Cantor Gaming) has already provided the point-spread/betting-line for weeks 1-16 in the NFL. You’re not supposed to make predictions in May but what fun would that be?  Here are some predictions based on the current lines for all the… Read more

Last Week: 0-2 Season: 6-6-1 Ravens +4 at Colts The Colts have not played a good game all season and could easily be 0-4. The Ravens have the power running game that Indy traditionally struggles to stop, and they can bring the kind of defensive pressure you need to bother Peyton Manning. Joe Flacco should… Read more

By Expert Handicapper and Internet Porn Expert Nick Ferraro Last Week: 2-1 Season: 5-3-1 Steelers -6 vs. Ravens The Steelers had big issues with the Eagles pass rush last week. The Ravens are still formidable on defense, but they’re not quite what they once were, and I’m betting pass protection got some attention this week… Read more

Nick’s Picks Season: 0-0 Baltimore +2 vs. Cincinnati The Ravens have an unsettled quarterback situation, but the Bengals have an unsettled team. Who plays under center for the Ravens shouldn’t matter much as the Bengals inability to stop the run. The defense is still solid for the Ravens, and they should help the offense out… Read more

By Nick Ferraro Jets at Dolphins (-2) The Dolphins are 5-2 in their last seven games and played the Bears and Patriots over that span.  With their playoff hopes dead, they will be set on dragging the Jets down with them on Christmas night.  The Jets are 6-3 since getting blasted in Jacksonville.  They come to… Read more

By Nick Ferraro Jets at Vikings (-3) The Jets were disappointing at home last week against Buffalo.  They are still alive for the postseason though, and they should be very focused on Sunday.  The Vikings were happy to see Detroit come to town after dropping five of their previous six contests.  For this game it’s… Read more

By Nick Ferraro  Bills at Jets (-3.5) The Bills have played well of late against solid competition.  They dropped a field-goal game against the Chargers, beat the Jaguars, and played the Colts to within one point in Indy.  The Bills and Jets have split their season series for the last three years, but this season… Read more

by Nick Ferraro Jets at Packers (even) The Jets have to be concerned about the weather in this one.  Right now the “expertsâ€? are calling for snow and strong winds.  A bad weather day is meaningless to Favre, but very meaningful for Pennington.  Chad’s lack of arm strength on a windy day will give the… Read more

by Nick Ferraro Raiders at Chargers (-13.5) The Chargers have become the fashionable pick for the Super Bowl after comebacks against Cincinnati and Denver.  They return home after taking control of the AFC West to face the lowly Raiders.  The Raiders have been more competitive of late, and the return of Aaron Brooks has given… Read more

By Nick Ferraro Last Week:  Who cares?  — Year to Date: The season starts Sunday! I’m taking a Mulligan on this season.  It’s time to change tactics, reorganize, and refocus.  No more will I attempt to handicap the unhandicappable.  I think I just created a new word in the English language – unhandicappable.  Feel free… Read more

By Nick Ferraro Last Week: (3-11 vs. spread, 6-8 straight up) Year to Date: (54-69-2 vs. spread, 69-54-2 straight up) I can’t pick my nose right now.  The strategy for you is easy: see who I am picking, and go against me.  I am on a brutal run the likes of which has never been… Read more
