2025 Pittsburgh Steelers Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/8/2025

Think what you want about the Steelers. But bet against Mike Tomlin and his boys at your own risk. Over the last 53 seasons, Pittsburgh has made the playoffs 34 times. Think about that for a second. The longest playoff drought that they have had over the last half-century was four years. And that happened back in the 1980’s.

2025 Arizona Cardinals Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/8/2025

Ken Whisenhunt increased Arizona’s win total each of his first three years, including a high-water mark of 10 wins in his third attempt. Bruce Arians did the same thing, increasing Arizona’s win total each of his first two years and then hitting a high of 13 wins in his third frame.

2025 Dallas Cowboys Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/8/2025

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I hate the Cowboys just as much as you do. I loathe their obnoxious, disgusting fans in their repulsive state. I’m an annoyed by their clueless, decrepit owner. The faux feeling of entitlement from everyone and everything surrounding this franchise is gross.

2025 Seattle Seahawks Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/8/2025

Seattle has beaten its Las Vegas season win total three straight seasons and six of the past seven years. Since 2011, the Seahawks have gone 10-4 against their season win total and they enter the 2025 season still underrated, sporting the lowest win total in the NFC West (7.5).

2025 Chicago Bears Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/8/2025

The Bears are going to be much better this season than they were last year. Undeniably better. New coach Ben Johnson can’t possibly be worse than all-time clown Matt Eberflus, whose 14-32 tenure featured one jaw-dropping decision and one mind-numbing loss after another.

2025 Jacksonville Jaguars Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/8/2025

Do you remember just two years ago the Jacksonville Jaguars entered the 2023 season with a Vegas season win total of 10.5 and realistic Super Bowl expectations? It’s true! That really happened! Peter King predicted the Jaguars to the No. 1 seed in the AFC that year. Pete Prisco had them as a legit Super Bowl threat. Other semi-serious media bobbleheads – the same people that crowned Trevor Lawrence as a “generational talent” – had these chuckleheads right below the Bills and Chiefs in the AFC hierarchy.

2025 Atlanta Falcons Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/8/2025

Maybe the 28-3 Super Bowl collapse really did just break this franchise. Has there been a more maddening team in the NFL over the last several years than the Atlanta Falcons? Despite being perpetually predicted to be a player in the NFC South – which is in a constant battle with its AFC brethren for the worst division in the NFL – the Falcons are routine underachievers.

2025 New England Patriots Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/8/2025

I say it every year. Beware the Trendy Team. There is always one or two teams, heading into every NFL season, that the general public has become enamored with. There are always a couple teams that everyone and their sister has tabbed as their “sleeper team” or as a “team on the rise

2025 Miami Dolphins Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/8/2025

Two years ago, Miami was a fun, exciting, up-and-coming contender in the AFC. They went 11-6, scored nearly 500 points, and made the playoffs for the second straight year, indicative of a young team on the rise. Then, Miami slipped to 8-9 last season. On the surface, that seems like a mild regression and, while disappointing, not catastrophic.

2025 Indianapolis Colts Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/8/2025

Hate to say, “I told you so.” Scratch that. I love saying, “I told you so.” We can deep-dive into why that is at another time. But for the purposes of the Colts, they are in a prison of their own making because they didn’t see what was obvious at the time: that Anthony Richardson was way more likely to be a bust than he ever was to be a superstar.

2025 Las Vegas Raiders Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/6/2025

The Raiders spent the offseason adding glitz and glam. They paid top dollar to haul in names that look good on the marquee. Pete Carroll! Chip Kelly! Ashton Jeanty! The idea is to get their fledgling Vegas fan base excited. And the Raiders franchise is doing so in the most Vegas way possible. Instead of adding brick-and-mortar pieces to build a foundation that could lead this organization out of the AFC West basement they have spent the offseason adding retreads and transients who won’t be here in five years.

2025 New York Jets Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/6/2025

I hate to do it. But I have to admit it. I was a sucker. I bought in to the belief that the Jets could stop being total-super-mega-hyper losers for like 15 minutes and be a competent NFL contestant. I bought into the belief that Aaron Rodgers wasn’t a washed-up toxic weirdo has-been underachiever and that he could provide baseline competence for a team that seemed to be a mediocre quarterback play away from being mediocre.

2025 New York Giants Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/6/2025

Since the start of the 2017 season, the Giants have the worst record in the NFL at 40-90-1. They are coming off a three-win season that saw them go just 4-13 against the spread. The Giants have gone ‘under’ their Vegas season win total seven of the past eight years.

2025 Tennessee Titans Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/6/2025

Each of the last two seasons have seen a rookie quarterback take the league by storm, lead their teams to surprising playoff appearances, and stamp their claim as the NFL’s Next Big Thing. First it was C.J. Stroud and Houston in 2023. Then it was Jayden Daniels in 2024.

2025 New Orleans Saints Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/6/2025

No team in the league has been a bigger underachiever over the last three years than the New Orleans Saints. Last year the Saints opened 2-0, outscoring the Panthers and Cowboys by a combined 91-29, before a crippling swarm of injuries gutted their roster and led to a 3-12 close to the campaign.

2025 Carolina Panthers Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/6/2025

Last season Carolina went 5-12. It was their seventh straight losing season and the fifth time in six years that they won five or fewer games. This is not a serious organization. Yet, all anyone wants to talk about with Carolina is the “progress” that they showed at the end of last year. The buzz around the league heading into 2025 is that somehow that “momentum” the Panthers built late last season will carry over into this fall.

2025 Cleveland Browns Season Win Total Picks
by Robert Ferringo - 8/6/2025

Someone must be The Worst Team In The NFL. For 2025 it might as well be the Cleveland Browns. It’s certainly a position they are used to. Cleveland has finished with a losing record in 15 of the last 17 NFL seasons. They went 3-14 last season and they enter 2025 with more questions than answers at several key positions, including quarterback.

4 Reasons to Bet on NFL Preseason Football
by Robert Ferringo - 8/6/2025

I know, I know. “Only real degenerates bet on the NFL preseason.” Well, are you still considered a degenerate gambler if you’ve turned a profit on the NFL preseason 12 of the last 16 years like I have? Or maybe if you’ve burned the books for August profit for eight straight preseasons like Strike Point Sports has?

2025 Big Ten Tournament Predictions and Betting Odds
by Robert Ferringo - 3/12/2025

It’s March. Which means it is time for the Big Ten’s annual NCAA Tournament humiliation. However, before we get to that, the conference should be able to give us one of the most entertaining and unpredictable conference tournaments of Championship Week.

2025 SEC Tournament Predictions and Betting Odds
by Robert Ferringo - 3/11/2025

The SEC has designs on sending as many as 12 teams to the NCAA Tournament this year. The league is clearly the beneficiary of conference expansion as well as down seasons from the normally dominant ACC and Big Ten. That still doesn’t change the fact that the SEC is loaded with top coaches, star freshmen, and future NBA All-Stars.
