Five NFL Picks Against the Spread: Big Underdogs to Watch Sunday
By Jason McIntyre
Picking five NFL games each week against the spread is no easy task. Could we be turning it around? Noah Coslov went 4-1 last week, and so did I. That puts him at 7-13 for the season, and I’m at 11-9. Correction coming?
Using the lines from the Hilton SuperContest, this is a brutal week. There are five games with a spread of 7-points or more; there are three games with spreads of 6-points or 6.5. These trends from Oddsshark can help you navigate the card.
You’ll have to watch the video for our picks, but here’s a hint:
Underdogs went 11-5 in week one.
Underdogs went 8-7-1 in week two.
Favorites went 10-6 in week three.
Favorites went 7-6 in week four.
Will the favorites trend continue, or will we see the underdogs roar again after adjustments by Las Vegas?
