Handicapper Big Al McMordie Free Sports Picks

At 1 pm, our selection is on the New York Jets + the points over Seattle.  The Jets are 18-0 ATS when priced from -1.5 to +11.5 points in the 2nd of back to back home games, if they were not off a SU/ATS win, and their opponent has a winning record.  Take New York.  Good luck as always...Al McMordie.

At 1:00 pm, our selection is on the New England Patriots + the points over Indianapolis.  In the last 5 weeks of an NFL season, home dogs of less than 11 points (or PK) have covered 57.1% since 1980 off back to back ATS losses.  And New England is 58-33-1 ATS off a loss, if they weren't favored by 7+ points.  Take the home dog Patriots.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the Atlanta Falcons + the points over the Los Angeles Chargers.  The Falcons were blown out, 38-6, last week by Denver.  I like the Falcons to bounce back at home this afternoon, as home dogs (or PK) have gone 113-74 ATS off a road loss by 28+ points.  Take Atlanta.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the UNDER in the Los Angeles Chargers/Atlanta Falcons game.  Both of these teams have largely played unders this season.  The Chargers are 7-4 to the Under while Atlanta is also 7-4 under.  And the Falcons are 29-10 UNDER in non-division home games, including 5-0 UNDER the last five.  Take the Under.

At 6:10 pm, our selection is on the Cleveland Cavaliers + the points over Boston.  The Cavaliers have been installed as a home underdog this evening vs. Boston, and the Cavs are a perfect 3-0 ATS as an underdog this season, including when it got 7 from Boston in a 120-117 loss on November 19.  The Cavs are also 6-1 ATS their last seven at home when playing with revenge, and not favored by 6+ points.  Finally, the Cavs fall into a 293-200 ATS system of mine which plays on certain top-level teams vs. foes not off a SU/ATS loss.  Take Cleveland.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 3 pm, our selection is on the Minnesota Golden Gophers minus the points over Bethune-Cookman.  After an 80-57 win and cover vs. Oral Roberts to kick off the season, the Golden Gophers have gone 4-3 SU, but 0-7 ATS, including back to back losses to Wichita St and Wake Forest on Thursday/Friday.  We'll take the Gophers to bounce back this afternoon, as they've covered 60.8% at home since 1990 off back to back losses, if they were matched up against a losing team.  Lay the points with Minnesota.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the Jacksonville Jaguars + the points over Houston.  The Jags had their Bye week last weekend following their 52-6 loss to Detroit.  I like them to bounce back from that 46-point shellacking, as rested home dogs, with a losing record, off a SU/ATS loss, have gone 14-2 ATS vs. unrested division foes with a winning record.  Take Jacksonville.  Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the UNDER in the Pittsburgh/Cincinnati game.  The Bengals have gone Over in eight of their last 10, and their games are averaging 53.9 ppg this season.  But the Steelers are one of four teams whose defensive ppg is less than 17 points.  And only one of Pittsburgh's games had an O/U line this high.  That was its game vs. the Ravens -- another team playing high-scoring games.  Baltimore's games were averaging 57.1 ppg, but its game vs. Pittsburgh finished 18-16.  The Steelers are 47-26 UNDER the total in games with O/U lines at 47+ points.  Take the Under.

At 1 pm, our selection is on the Washington Commanders minus the points over Tennessee.  We played on the Titans last week, and were rewarded with a huge upset win over the Texans, as an 8-point road underdog.  But off that stellar game, we'll fade Tennessee on Sunday, as road underdogs, off upset road wins as an underdog of 8+ points, have gone 35-58 ATS.  Take the Commanders.
