Week 15: Mr. Peebles Slaps Himself Silly
OK, Mr. Peebles is officially passing on offering any more free NFL picks. He split the difference with predictions for Week 14 NFL Betting, in what should have been forgone conclusions. Sadly, the 2009-10 NFL betting season may be one of the books, and not for Mr. Peebles, who’s tapping into his trust fund to get money for betting this weekend. *NOTE: DO NOT try this at home, you’ll get your ass kicked, plus you’ll be without a trust fund pretty fast.
The great thing about Week 15 is that there are no Bye Games. There’s still a lot of jockeying going on for divisional playoff positions, except for the the New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts, who have already clinched. The devil is in the details, and Week 15 provides some teams with a final shot at propelling themselves into playoff positions.
Even better: We’ve got football Thursday through Monday this weekend, including the first college bowl game of the season on Saturday. Needless to say, Mr. Peebles will be in “Football betting Nirvana“, to borrow a phrase from his buddies over at SportsBetting3.com. If you’re keen on gambling this weekend, Mr. Peebles offers this advice: DIVERSIFY.
Now, you’re probably thinking, that’s what my butt-munch financial planner told me just before the Stock Market turned into a lolly pop stand. Well, Mr. Peebles agrees: it’s BS advice for stocks (these days), but NOT for NFL Betting. If you want to come out of Week 15 on top, you’re going to need to get ahead early, and then coast through to Monday Night Football action.
To state the obvious, that means on Thursday, December 17, 2009, you’re going to take the Saints and Colts as winners of their respective games. You may not win a lot, but at least you’ll win something, and you can bet your worthless shiny nickel that Mr. Peebles is staking significant sums of money on these games. In reality, Peyton Manning and Drew Brees have nothing left to prove: they’re the top 2 teams in the league, each with undefeated records and tons of great talent. What more can be said?
On Saturday, you’ve got the bowl game(s). Check out the complete bowl game betting schedule at Sportsbetting3.com. Take it easy on these games. If you come out ahead Thursday night, take the favorite and relax with a small straight bet.
Then, on Sunday, the rest of Week 15 NFL betting commences. The Atlanta Falcons/New York Jets game should be fun to watch: it starts at 1:00 PM EST from Giants Stadium. Another crowd pleaser will be the Miami Dolphins/Tennessee Titans. The Dolphins are hoping for a late season rally, and will need to topple the Titans to lock up post season honors. Aside from these games, the Arizona Cardinals will take on the Detroit Lions at 1:00 PM, in what should be an easy winner. Take the Cardinals straight up and mix them into your parlay bet: they’ve struggled a bit this season, but Kurt Warner isn’t quite done yet. Finally, the Minnesota Vikings will take on the Carolina Panthers at 8:20 PM EST. Can Brett Favre lock up the Viking’s post season with another win? This should be an interesting game.
Oh yeah, don’t forget about Monday Night Football, you clowns: The New York Giants collide with the Washington RedSkins. Eli Manning will need to steal some of his brother’s passing acumen if they want to win this game. The Redskins are the lesser of the two, but have had a couple surprise wins this season. Don’t count them out.
So enough with the trash can humor and NFL betting clairvoyance. Mr. Peebles will bow to YOUR expertise this weekend, while he’ll bet some games on the sly and have something to brag about next week.
Good Luck NFL Betting from Mr. Peebles!
