Denver at Miami -6.5 O/U 48, 1:00pm ET

Sean Peyton and the Broncos hit the road east and head to South Beach for a week 3 clash with Tua, Tyreek and the Fish. This is Denver’s first road game of the season, getting games 1 and 2 of their schedule at home. While Miami started their season with away games in L.A and New England, making Sunday their home opener. Now these were two squads with tons of hype entering the 2023 season, also two teams heading in vastly different directions. Miami has lived up to the hype, currently 2-0 and clicking on many levels. Whereas Denver is still winless and are facing plenty of problems on both sides of the ball.

This is an awful spot for Denver. Why do you ask? Well, you always have the altitude factor playing at Mile High giving the Broncos players an edge in every home game. They were unable to come away with wins in either home game, and now head to Miami to play in the heat. For those not from Florida, truly have no idea the humidity factor playing in Florida in September. Like the Broncos getting that home edge, this situation greatly favors the Dolphin roster. Playing, practicing, and living in this heat is no picnic, but their bodies are surely more acclimated than any of the northern teams.

Now let’s talk X’s and O’s. This is set up to be a long day for Russell and company. Vic Fangio’s defense was able to get to Justin Herbert 3 times in week 1 and got to Mac Jones 4 times in week 2. Yes, I understand the Patriots were without two offensive linemen, but regardless getting to the QB has been no problem for his D. Now he gets to square off with a Denver O-line who has given up 9 sacks in just two weeks. Again, I understand 7 of the 9 came from the Commanders ferocious pass rush, but don’t think for a second Miami is that far behind them. Expect to see Fangio bring pressure on Wilson all game, causing chaos and hopefully a defensive TD or at the very least, short fields for Tua. Also don’t forget this is Fangio’s old team where he was the previous head coach, so I expect him to call an aggressive game with the revenge factor partially being in play.

How will Denver stop the Dolphins offense? Simply put, they won’t. Miami has too much speed on outside for Denver to contain. The second Mike McDaniel senses them consistently dropping back into coverage, he will unleash Mostert who ran for 121 yards in New England last week. Raiders WR Jakobi Myers had a field day week 1 versus Denver, with all their focus on Davante Adams. I expect a similar game Sunday with Denver focusing on stopping Tyreek Hill. Leaving an empty canvas for Waddle to, waddle into the endzone.

Let’s take the fish in week 3, with a strong unit upgrade. We will also throw in a few Waddle receiving props as well. Let’s go Dolphins!

Dolphins -6.5 (BetMGM -110) risk 2.2u to win 2u

Waddle over ___ receiving yards risk ___ to win 0.5u

Waddle *anytime* TD +115 (DraftKings) risk 0.25u to win 0.29u

Correlated Parlay: Dolphins -6.5/over 48. risk 0.2u to win 0.53u

Good luck if tailing any of these bets, as always bet what you can afford to lose, stay disciplined and BREATHE…

  • QB Russell Wilson is very benchable and could struggle vs Miami’s D.

Nasty Sleeper:   WR Jordan Addison.  This should be a high scoring game.

NFL Monday Night Free Play – When The Saints Come Marching In

Great start so far to the young NFL season as we sit at 8-4-1 with a few plays left for Monday night.

Looking at one of tonight’s Monday night match-ups for our Free Play as the Saints roll into Charlotte to take on the Panthers. The weather looks good with with 75 degrees and sunny skies. Light variable winds at 6 mph expected.

Current lines sit at the Saints -3 with it getting pushed to -120 at some books so this could hit 3.5 in some places before game time. Saints -175 ML and Panthers +155. The total is at 39.5.

The Saints edged out the Titans by a point at home in week 1 as Mike Vrabel played for the cover. The offense wasn’t overly impressive as they really struggled to run the ball against the Titans. That being said that was the MO of most teams against the Titans in 2022 who struggled much more mightily against the pass. Derek Carr looked comfortable in the passing attack racking up 305 Yards on 33 attempts. His receiving core with Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed and a healthy Michael Thomas present all sorts of match-up problems for opposing defenses. Their defense looked solid holding Tennessee to 285 total yards and intercepting Ryan Tannenhill three times. They should be able to replicate that script against the Panthers woeful offense.

The Panthers were a two touchdown loser to the Falcons Week 1 despite out-gaining them by 60 yards. Two Bryce young picks and three total turnovers did them in as they were forced in the second half to get away from their game script of running the football. They did have the fourth highest success rate Week 1 rushing the ball, but I think this Saints defense that held Derrick Henry to 63 yards will be a tougher task for them. Bryce Young threw the ball 38 times, but only managed 146 yards which is a paltry 3.84 yards per attempt. The Panthers defense did look good against the Falcons and got stuck defending a very short field following both Bryce Young INTs. I think they will be tough against the Saints running game, but will struggle more this week against Carr and his elite group of receivers than they did against Desmond Ridder. Also they lost starting top CB Jaycee Horn this week who went on IR so matching up with those Saints wideouts will be even tougher.

Let’s break it down. Everything says we should be on the Panthers here from a history standpoint. Early season divisional game. Low scoring expected. Home team getting a Field goal or even 3.5. Sometimes you have to throw history out the window and look at what you’ve seen on the field. Yes, one week is a small sample size, but looking at the Panthers defensive success rate last year and what they improved on in the off-season I don’t see them having the same level of success against the Saints as they did against the Falcons. The Jaycee Horn injury is huge, and if they want to slow down Carr they will need to find a way to get pressure on him up the middle and interrupt his rhythm. More importantly for me in this handicap is the Panthers lackluster offense. Young could not push the ball downfield at all. When your tight end leads the team in receiving with 5 catches for 41 yards you are going to struggle to stretch the defense and help the rushing attach. D.J.Chark is banged up, but expected to play. Adam Thielen is past his prime and has not found any chemistry with Young so far. Miles Sanders and Chuba Hubbard have to be effective for this team to have a chance and the game has to stay within striking distance for them not to abandon the running game. The Saints will not allow that to happen. Bryce Young cannot carry this team to a victory and I think the Saints find enough big plays in this one to force him to try and do that. I’ve got the Saints tonight in what I think will be a 27-10, 24-13 type of contest. Who Dat!

Official Play: Saints -3

Seahawks vs Lions -4.5 O/U 47.5

NFL week two is over reaction week and here we are with a team who looked good week one vs a team who looked bad.   So this means that we should be betting the Seahawks right?   WRONG.  The Lions are coming off of that Kansas City win knowing that they could have put that game away earlier without some of those boneheaded mistakes.   Detroit is coming into this game healthy and with extra rest.   Seattle has some pretty bad injuries losing BOTH offensive tackles from last week.   They also have a few linebackers questionable win Devin Bushe and Boye Mafe.  Defensive end Mike Morris is out.   Geno may have some serious problems throwing the ball today.  It is too early to get into stats, but the Lions looked very good moving the ball last week.   They are also unveiling a Barry Sanders statue today at home.  In Detroit’s last ten games, they are 9-1 against the spread.  The Seahawks are 1-9 respectively and maybe still overrated.   The Lions missed the playoffs last year due to Seattle’s win vs the Rams.  Take Detroit.

Lions -4.5 – 2 stars

Penn State vs Illinois +14.5 O/U 48.5

Big 10 conference play is starting up and this game should be a little closer than this line is proposing.   I do not think that Illinois gets blown out here.   I like how Illinois Coach Brett Beliema knew how to play this team in 2021 when they won in Happy Valley outright.  The fighting Illini slowed that game down with a much worse team.  They essentially muddied it up.  I do not see why Coach B wouldn’t do that again after that Kansas showing from last weekend.  Penn State’s numbers look good thus far but they haven’t played anybody.  According to Jeff Sagarin, Illinois has played the 24th hardest schedule while Penn State played the 120th hardest schedule.  I do not think that West Virginia was a good test, and Penn State had to get a garbage score at the end in order to cover.   Now I know that Penn State has more talent than Illinois, but this is big 10 country, and we all know what many of these games tend to look like.  My power ratings have this a 12 to 13 point game.  Take the Orange and Blue.

Illinois +14.5 – 2 stars and sprinkle

Kansas State vs Missouri -3.5 O/U 48

I honestly can not figure out why this line is so small here.  We have seen this dog and pony show before.  Missouri went to Manhattan Kansas last year and got blasted 40-12.  This year, the Missouri football squad looks almost as bad as Boston College as the Tigers struggled last week hosting Middle Tennessee State.   Kansas State at least played the Sun Belt champions of last year in Troy and pretty much had their way with them.   The Wildcats are disrespected.  Nobody is talking about this Big 12 championship team while Texas and Oklahoma are getting all of the accolades.  What has changed here for me to think that Missouri is competent enough to lose this game by less than 7 points?   This is the same Tigers team under Eli Drinkwitz that we have experienced for the past four years.   My power ratings have this game Kansas State -11 and I think that might be a bit short.  Take the Cats.

Kansas State -3.5 – 3 stars

NFL Week 2 Pick

Green Bay Packers @ Atlanta Falcons

Atlanta Falcons Moneyline -122 @Draftkings Sportsbook Risk 3.66 Units To Win 3 Units

Took a 1-1 split last week and looking to get a winner this Sunday as the Atlanta Falcons will host the Green Bay Packers. There’s a lot of love out there for the Packers right now as they blew out the Bears 38-20 last Sunday. I think that was more of the Bears being a bad football team as they are one of the bottom feeders in the NFL. This will be a much tougher test for the Packers as they are on the road again against a better defense in the Falcons which ranks 6th in DVOA defense. The Packers do have some key injuries to there team as WR Christian Watson is questionable, LB Quay Walker is still in concussion protocol, and RB Aaron Jones and has not practiced at all this week. If Aaron Jones does not go in this game I have a hard time seeing the Packers being successful on the ground as AJ Dillon averaged a lousy 1.5 yards per carry against a bad Bears defense. The Falcons should get pressure on Jordon Love in this game as they had a pressure rate of 33% per dropback and didn’t have to blitz a lot to create pressure last week against the Panthers. If the Falcons stay true to who they are with success on the ground and don’t turn the ball over they should beat the Packers this Sunday. My Power ratings make the Falcons a 3 point favorite in this contest so take the Falcons with confidence on the moneyline.
