MIT Simulator Thursday NFL Free Pick: Philadelphia Eagles +4 - The Patriots rolled by 9 points last week. The Eagles got destroyed by 17 points last week. New England, one could also argue, has revenge on their minds because of the Super Bowl loss to Philadelphia in February. However, the most important factor of all is the one that the markets appear to be overlooking here. That fact is this: preseason! The fact is that preseason games are an entirely different animal and one should not over-react to last week's results nor should one over-value the revenge angle here. This is simply a whole different ballgame when it comes to what used to be referred to as an "exhibition season" and what truly still is an "exhibition" when you think about it. Per all of of the above, along with what the simulation has projected for this game, there is great value with grabbing the underdog and the points as this line has risen to as high as a 4.5 as of Noon ET on game-day. That has MIT pulling the trigger on a Free Pick here in this one for Thursday! Best of luck from MIT Simulator and don't miss all the PREMIUM pick action as well as MIT is off of a 2-0 SWEEP yesterday and stays RED HOT all week long and right into a HUGE weekend as well!
Look for Zach Eflin was sent to Triple-A to make room for Justin Bour, not for any lack of success to have a big outing tonight. The righty has a 4.91 ERA since the All-Star break and held the Padres to two runs over six innings last time out.
He is a very good pitcher and should keep the Mets lineup in check.
Take the PHILLIES here in game 2 of the doubleheader on Thursday night.
You won't see Big Ben this week for the Steelers or even Landry Jones what you will see is a ton of untested Mason Rudolph and Joshua Dobbs both fighting for the 3rd string job and neither of the two are that impressive but we will see.
The Packers should have Rodgers out their for a series then we will see Brent Hundley fighting for his NFL life as he will most likely be auditioning for another team. Then you have who is very talented and should receive a ton of snaps Thursday. All in all I think the Packers will be playing more of their talent then the Steelers will and in the preseason a little research can payoff big time.
Betting is heavy on the Packers but the line is moving according to that action so the best thing you can do is get down asap on this one as line should move up around 6.5 by kickoff.
Invest 9 units on the Packers rotation #406
(Make sure you check out my season pass onsale now until the start of the season 4-1 so far 80% in preseason as I look to ride hot into the regular season)
Fp: The padres rank near the bottom of the league in offensive categories, so I expect the scoring to be one sided with as doing all the heavy lifting 9 runs to beat us will be a chore making the under my mlb free pick!

This is a Free #CFL play on the BC Lions.
The Toronto Argos are coming off a bye week, and their last game was a thrilling 42-41 comeback win over Ottawa. They were trailing by 24 points in the third quarter of that game, and were quite fortunate to have rallied for just their second win. Toronto has allowed opponents to average over 31 points per game this season, only the lowly Montreal Alouettes have allowed more. The Lions come in with just a 3-4 record, but they look a lot more dangerous since veteran Travis Lulay took over at quarterback. In four games as a starter, Lulay has thrown for 1,171 yards and five TDs. Three of those games came against the top three teams in the league (Calgary, Winnipeg and Edmonton). The Lions have won four straight at Toronto dating back to 2013, and I expect history to repeat itself here this week.
