Doc Brown’s NFL Picks Against the Spread: Week 13

It’s a shame I don’t crank these bad boys out prior to the Thursday games, because I can promise you the Eagles would have been one of my picks. That’s the thing about McNabb — the guy thrives under circumstances of adversity. …

Doc Brown’s NFL Picks Against the Spread: Week 12

If history tells us anything, Doc Brown always follows an 0-3 week with a 3-0 week. That’s a good sign, but maybe not that great considering it should have been 1-2 if it weren’t for the refs screwing us on the Steelers/Chargers game. …

Doc Brown’s NFL Picks Against the Spread: Week 11

I sure like the sound of 17-13 a lot more than 14-13. That’s right, a 3-0 week (our third of the season for those of you playing the parlay cards), puts us at 57% for the season against the spread, good enough to get the slight edge on the …

Doc Brown’s NFL Picks Against the Spread: Week 10

So this NFL picking thing not turning out as easy as we all thought. 14-13 on the year, still hovering around .500. With this as the last week of byes, the selection will become more plentiful in the following weeks allowing us to find favorable …

Doc Brown’s NFL Picks Against the Spread: Week 9

2-1 last week, 13-11 overall against the spread. Building up some decent respectability but there’s still plenty of work to be done. As I said last week, I always like taking advantage of bye weeks. Of course when we did that in week 8, the …

Doc Brown’s NFL Picks Against the Spread: Week 8

Life in the NFL: you go 3-0 one week, the following week, you give it all back going 0-3. Back to a game over .500 at 11-10. One trend you’ll notice now is the way we’re going to take advantage of the bye weeks. Teams have that extra week …

Doc Brown’s NFL Picks Agains the Spread: Week 7

Man, last weekend was like taking candy from a baby. We swept the board going 3-0 to improve to 11-7 on the year, and you didn’t even have to sweat for two of the picks. Considering the fact that last weekend was blowout city for Doc’s …

Doc Brown’s NFL Picks Against the Spread: Week 6

So you take the Texans expecting a home win, then Matt Schaub gets hospitalized the night before the game. Sage Rosenfels appears like a good bet to lead the team to victory and then he turns the ball over three times in the final eight minutes of …

Doc Brown’s NFL Picks Against the Spread: Week 5

OK, so I’m back and blogging again, which I hope is something about which we’re mutually excited. But as if getting hammered with emergency surgery on Monday night wasn’t enough, for some reason my database had a glitch and all my …

Doc Brown’s NFL Picks Against the Spread: Week 3

OK, so I’m not too happy about going 2-4 to start the season. Last week we got screwed by the bad call in the Chargers/Broncos game otherwise we would have been sitting in a decent spot at .500. Now, we’ll need a 3-0 week to surge back to …

Doc Brown’s NFL Picks Against the Spread: Week 2

OK, so Week 1 didn’t exactly start off with a solid showing. I went 1-2, with an embarrassing loss by the Rams as one of my picks. They only needed about 12 more touchdowns to beat the spread. The Saints won a close one and barely covered …

Doc Brown’s NFL Picks: Week 1

It’s that time of year! You know it’s not officially football season until Doc Brown’s Sports Almanac picks are released. To refresh your memory, last NFL season I served as the handicapper at AOL Sports’ FanHouse, picking 3 …

Week 14 NFL Picks

Three straight 2-1 weeks. You know what that means? I’m making you money. Every week. We’re now 14-9-1 on the year, a clip over 60% against the spread. For those of you a little new to the game, that’s like batting over .300 in …

Week 13 NFL Picks

So I took last week off for the picks (I was like 10-0 though, trust me). This week we’re back on, and although I had the Cowboys covering, the picks are only limited to Sunday’s games (duh, if you could find a book that’s still …

Week 11 NFL Picks

It was nice to get back on track with a 2-1 week. The Browns covered easily, and even were leading most of the game. The Falcons were getting points, and won outright. Only the stinking Lions lost last weekend, but this weekend they’re at home, …

Week 10 NFL Picks

Something about those road dogs, I dunno. It was pointed out to me that for the second week in a row, I took three road teams. Last week it didn’t work out so well. We’ll see how this week goes, but I’m taking three dogs and like …
