First off, I just wanna say thank god I didn’t write a blog for Thursday. Whatever slanderous nonsense I would’ve spewed out would’ve only added insult to injury of the money we lost. I mean I actually said Washington -13.5 for a primetime game. But hey like I said last week Bick’s Picks is about arbitrary biases and having a short memory. So much like [Field Goal Boy] Ron Rivera forgetting about his timeouts let’s forget about those L’s and dive into some picks.
Life’s Too Short to Bet the Under
Jaguars @ Bills (48.5) (London)
I won’t lie it took me a minute to truly find an over I loved like I did last week. I bounced around for a bit, but inevitably always found myself looking at London. The way I see it, I’ve [Josh Allen] been slinging it in recent weeks so I feel confident I’ll put 35 on my own. Then on the flip side Mr. Ed and friends essentially have relocated to England, so I think the extra rest and lack of travel will work in their favor. Gimme a shootout and an easy win to start my Sunday. [Editors Note: Tottenham Stadium is 5-1 to the Over]
Dogging It
Bengals @ Cardinals (+3)
As avid readers of Bick’s Picks would know we have several pillars of integrity including, but not limited to, plums, bias, and a short memory. Today we reveal another pillar and that’s the pillar of accountability. Some say it’s the most important ability, but we all know that’s availability. Either way the point is MY bad. I know I’m not 100% to blame for the Patriots loss, but I’m definitely a little to blame. So like Atlas I’ll shoulder that blame and promise to never pick the Pats again*. Now that I’ve appeased the editor on to the pick. Simply put I don’t like the Bungles. Burrow isn’t right and they’re just an ugly team to watch. Meanwhile football Charlie V [Josh Dobbs] [Reference to UCONN legend and fellow alopecia gang member Charlie Villanueva] and the Cards are the type of scrappy underdogs this whole segment is built around. Cards cover and maybe win.
Bick’s Stone Cold Lock of the Century of the Week
Giants @ Dolphins (-12.5)
Now I know what you’re saying -12.5?? Didn’t you learn your lesson Thursday? And the answer is no, of course I didn’t. This goldfish is whistling past my graveyard of bets and hammering this spread. Giants OL is in shambles, Barkley is still hurt, Daniel Jones is Daniel Jones again, and Daboll is looking more and more like McAdoo by the week. There’s some concern with the Dolphins OL but that’s just me trying to come up with a reason the Giants hang around. Fins roll easy money.
