2019 Carolina Panthers Odds to win the Super Bowl with Expert Betting Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 8/17/2019

It has been a rollercoaster ride for the Panthers since they made the Super Bowl in 2015. The years of 2016 and 2018 were disappointing, while 2017 was a promising 11-5 season. They have struggled to maintain any momentum, and Cam Newton has really struggled to stay healthy. This is a big year both for the team and the quarterback. Believing in their core for the most part, they didn't make dramatic changes this offseason. But if it is another disappointing regular season then you can be sure that it will be a far more dramatic offseason. Can the team avoid that happening?

2019 Atlanta Falcons Odds to win the Super Bowl with Expert Betting Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 8/17/2019

It's a big year for the Atlanta Falcons and for Dan Quinn's coaching career. In 2016, they made it all the way to the Super Bowl, losing in overtime after a collapse for the ages. And they have never been the same since. They won 10 games and a playoff game the next year but didn't feel nearly as dangerous as they had the year before. And last season they lost nine times and had a long list of problems. It was an offseason of changes, and now they face a season of urgency. Are they up to the challenge? (Spoiler alert - I'm not at all convinced).

2019 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Odds to win the Super Bowl with Expert Betting Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 8/17/2019

The last four head coaches of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have failed to make the playoffs. The last one who did, in case you feel like it wasn't that long ago, was Jon Gruden in 2007. In the 11 seasons since they have had just three winning seasons. This is a franchise that is adrift. Lost. Confused. Perhaps even hopeless. But they have their fifth coach of this slump now, and when stacked beside Raheem Morris, Lovie Smith, Greg Schiano and Dirk Koetter, you could make a solid argument that Bruce Arians is the best of the group.

2019 New York Giants Odds to win the Super Bowl with Expert Betting Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 8/17/2019

It's one of the great mysteries in sports that teams in the biggest city in the country, aside from the Yankees, mostly suck. Consistently, and despite all efforts. The Knicks are such an embarrassment that they couldn't attract a free agent despite a bottomless bank account this summer. The Mets are the Mets - and that's not a compliment.

2019 Washington Redskins Odds to win the Super Bowl with Expert Betting Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 8/17/2019

The Washington Redskins last won a playoff game in 2005, back in the third year of the second Joe Gibbs era. And they have made the playoffs only three times since then. Jay Gruden was crushed by the Packers as a wild card team in his second year, and he has gone 22-25-1 in the three seasons since.

2019 New Orleans Saints Odds to win the Super Bowl with Expert Betting Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 8/16/2019

Let's just come right out and say it - the Saints were completely screwed in the playoffs. They earned a berth in the Super Bowl, only to have it taken away by brutally incompetent officiating. But that is in the past, and the success of this season for the Saints relies on their ability to leave that result in the past and move on from it. Many teams over the years have shown us that a hangover following playoff disappointment is very real.

2019 NFC East Predictions with Betting Advice
by Chris Vasile - 8/16/2019

If you are looking for a division in professional football that speaks parity, you need not look further than the NFC East. Since 2011, every team has taken their place atop the division, with the Cowboys claiming the crown three times, the Eagles and Redskins twice, and the Giants once.

2019 Dallas Cowboys Odds to win the Super Bowl with Expert Betting Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 8/16/2019

Jason Garrett should consider himself very lucky. The story around the Dallas Cowboys should be all about him. In nine and a half seasons at the head of the most iconic team in the sport, he has somehow won just two playoff games and has a .566 winning percentage that is a long way from impressive. Yet he is clearly a graduate of the Marvin Lewis Academy of Miraculously Never Getting Fired.

2019 NFC North Predictions with Betting Advice
by Chris Vasile - 8/16/2019

The NFC North has long been a division that has been dominated by the Green Bay Packers. From 2011-present day, the Packers own five NFC North crowns, while the Bears and Vikings share one apiece. This season, the NFC North is completely up for grabs as each of those three teams have what it takes to finish first.

2019 Philadelphia Eagles Odds to win the Super Bowl with Expert Betting Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 8/16/2019

It was a tale of two seasons for the Eagles last year. Through their first 10 games, they were 4-6, had lost five of their last seven, and seemed to be going nowhere fast. But then things changed. They won five of their last six games and lost the other in overtime. Carson Wentz was hurt in the first game of that stretch, and Nick Foles started the last five games.

2019 Los Angeles Rams Odds to win the Super Bowl with Expert Betting Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 8/15/2019

Of all the storylines in the NFL this year, one of the most fascinating from where I sit is how the Rams respond. They got thoroughly and completely humbled in the Super Bowl after such a great year. If you hadn't watched the game, then 13-3 score wouldn't seem awful, but it was far more lopsided than that. And on top of that, their win in the NFC Championship was hollow in that it was so heavily aided by the officials' incompetence.

2019 San Francisco 49ers Odds to win the Super Bowl with Expert Betting Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 8/15/2019

It has been an odd career so far for Kyle Shanahan as a head coach. He has won only 10 games in two years. Most guys would be in trouble at this point after doing that - if they were still employed. But while Shanahan may not have the coolest seat out there, he's also not massively at risk of being fired. It is as if he has - legitimately - been given mulligans for both years.

2019 Seattle Seahawks Odds to win the Super Bowl with Expert Betting Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 8/15/2019

The process of moving on from their past continued this offseason in Seattle, as Earl Thomas and Doug Baldwin were among the latest key cogs of the past who were sent packing. They were very successful with the team, but the Seahawks feel like they are treading water a little bit these days, and they hope that looking to the future will help them climb out of this funk. They are in a tough spot. They have won at least nine games the last four years, so they aren't struggling by any means. But they haven't felt very dangerous the last three years, and that needs to change.

2019 Arizona Cardinals Odds to win the Super Bowl with Expert Betting Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 8/15/2019

The one thing we can be sure of is that the Arizona Cardinals are not going to be boring this year. And that really is something. It has been since Kurt Warner was in town that the squad was consistently fun to watch - except, perhaps, for a few games with Carson Palmer here or there. This team might not be good, and they are still very much a work in progress, but they are going to try some stuff on offense that will make your eyes pop out of your head. It will either be amazing or an amazing train wreck. And either one will make for good watching.

2019 AFC West Predictions and Expert NFL Betting Picks
by Chris Vasile - 8/14/2019

The AFC West is going to be an extremely top-heavy division once again this year as the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers are the class of the division. The Chiefs come into this season as hot favorites to win the division for the fourth straight season, and with good reason. They have the reigning MVP, Patrick Mahomes, under center, and they have Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce ready to put up solid numbers.

2019 Green Bay Packers Odds to win the Super Bowl with Expert Betting Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 8/14/2019

The Green Bay Packers have been a model of consistency. Three coaches have coached the bulk of the years since 1992, they don't have any ownership drama, and they are so often boring in all the right ways. But last year there was indeed drama. An era ended. And now a new one is beginning. Their last two years were far, far below their typical standard, which got us to where they are now.

2019 Minnesota Vikings Odds to win the Super Bowl with Expert Betting Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 8/14/2019

There is a tremendous amount of pressure on the Minnesota Vikings this year. Two years ago, they went 13-3, and people thought they were very legitimate. They upgraded at quarterback - or at least they thought they did - and the respect for them heading into last season was almost universal. But winning is hard in the NFL, as they proved.

2019 NFC South Predictions with Betting Advice
by Chris Vasile - 8/14/2019

The NFC South has been an extremely competitive division for as long as I can remember. The Panthers, Saints and Falcons have each won multiple division titles over the course of the last 11 seasons, but it's the Saints who own the last two with records of 13-3 and 11-5, respectively.

2019 AFC South Predictions and Expert NFL Betting Picks
by Chris Vasile - 8/14/2019

The AFC South was extremely competitive last season as it had the honor of sending two teams to the playoffs - the Indianapolis Colts and Houston Texans. The problem was that they ended up playing each other in the Wild Card round and then the Colts proceeded to get trounced by Kansas City. This year, all four teams have a legitimate shot at making the postseason via the division title. Each team got better under their own circumstances. And outside of any major injuries, each team in this division should be entertaining to watch.

2019 Chicago Bears Odds to win the Super Bowl with Expert Betting Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 8/14/2019

The Chicago Bears are in one of the toughest spots a team can be in. After seasons of 3-13 and 5-11, the team turned a corner in a massive way last year under a new coaching staff, winning 12 games. It was no fluke, either - they were just that good. Now the team has to follow that up.
