Gridiron Angles - Week 14
By Vince Akins

NFL PLAY ON ATS TREND:

The Seahawks are 10-0 ATS (9.75 ppg) since Dec 14, 2008 within 3 of pick when they had fewer than ten incompletions last week.

NFL PLAY AGAINST TREND:

The Eagles are 0-13 ATS (-10.50 ppg) since Nov 28, 2010 as a favorite after playing as a home favorite.

TOP NFL PLAYER TREND:

Matt Stafford is 11-0-1 OU (12.7 ppg) since December 2009 as between a four-point favorite and six-point dogs after a game where he threw no more than 35 passes.

NFL BIBLE ACTIVE TREND:

The Titans are 0-11 ATS (-15.1 ppg) since 2004 facing a team which averages over 8 yards per passing attempt put less than 5 yards per rushing attempt.

NFL SUPER SYSTEM:

Teams which had a rush of over 70 yards last game are 44- 61-3 OU. Active on Buffalo.

NFL O/U TREND:

The Dolphins are 0-10 OU (-8.85 ppg) since Dec 12, 2010 on the road when they have had a negative dpa in each of their last two games.

PICK SIXTY SPORTS WEEKLY TIP:

The Minnesota Vikings squandered a 13-point fourth quarter lead at Green Bay in Week 12 and then after playing an entire fifth ‘quarter’ settled for a rare tie. Last week at home it was the Vikings storming back from a double-digit deficit in the fourth to force overtime against the Bears and then after two missed field goals, Minnesota eventually won 23-20. It was the team’s 16th fourth quarter comeback in the past eight years at home and history shows the Vikes are just 5-11 SU and 4-12 ATS fol-lowing the late dramatics since 1996 (1-9 ATS on the road).

Adrian Peterson rushed for 211 yards against the Bears but he’ll face a much tougher test in Baltimore this Sunday. The Bears defense ranks last in the league against the run (154 RYPG allowed) while the Ravens have climbed to sixth (100 RYPG allowed). AP (groin) has been limited in practice this week and the Vikes are now heading outdoors to face a Ravens team with their sights set on the playoffs. With extra rest off that Thanksgiving win over Pittsburgh we can expect John Harbaugh to have his team ready and the line on this game has dropped to Ravens -6.5 at several outlets during the past few days. Our money is on the favorite.

Pick: Take the Ravens

Brady Kannon | NFL Total
pick 132 WAS / 131 KAN Over 44.5 5dimes
Analysis: A trend that we have seen develop this season is the game going OVER the Total when two teams meet from out of conference. We're banking on The Redskins getting their offensive act together here in their 3rd straight home game and The Chiefs defense softening a bit between division games.




Brady Kannon | NFL Total
pick 148 TAM / 147 BUF Over 42.5 BetOnline
Analysis: Both of these teams have decent defenses and their offenses rely on establishing a good running game - which does speed a game up and tend toward an UNDER but The Bills can put up points when they are rolling and the fact that these two clubs are not familiar with each other with this being an out of conference clash, we're feeling 42.5 is a little bit generous. Buccs & Bills OVER the Total


Brady Kannon | NFL Total
pick 154 SDC / 153 NYG Over 47.0 BetOnline
Analysis: First of all, we like that this is a non-conference meeting, breeding unfamiliarity. Secondly, we like the fact that The Chargers have a very good offense coupled with a very generous defense. Points a plenty from both sides today in Sunny San Diego. OVER the Total

Wunderdog Sports Free Pick

Game: Miami at Pittsburgh (Sunday 12/08 1:00 PM Eastern)
Pick: Miami +3.5 (-115) at 5Dimes

Pittsburgh's playoffs hopes took a major hit last week in Baltimore, as their loss to the Ravens left them at 5-7. I think that the 0-4 hole they put themselves in early in the season is one they aren't going to be able to dig themselves out of. At 6-6 Miami is in a spot to control their own playoffs destiny. A win here in Pittsburgh would go a long way to solidify a spot in the postseason. Since opening the season at 3-1, the Dolphins have not lost to anyone by more than 10 points, and four of the five losses since then have come by 4 points or less. You can be sure they will be around at the end here. Pittsburgh can't run the ball, and Big Ben has thrown 10 INTs on the season. The Steel Curtain defense just isn't what it used to be. The Dolphins have come up big off a big defensive game, one where they allowed less than 250 total yards, as they have followed by going 6-0 ATS in their last six. And, the Fins have really stepped things up defensively of late, allowing just 13 points per game over their last three. Losing has bred losing for the Steelers now at 2-5 ATS when following a loss. Barring a Mike Tomlin tackle here, I think Miami at least keeps this one close.
