Swami’s 2025 futures picks

2dueces2dueces Posts: 6,624 ✭✭✭✭✭

I’ll bypass the fact that over the last 3 seasons Swami’s bank account has recorded a winning profit
of over $5000 and we’ll start from scratch this year with a bank roll of $1000. First the over/ under wins
Buffalo has the 26th easiest schedule in the NFL this season and picked up a few free agents (Bosa, Palmer, Moore and 2 more on 6 games suspensions to start the season. The OL remains the same. James Cook signed his contract and they have the reigning MVP.
New England with new coaching and a sold 2nd year QB is a very popular pick.
Now the unders.
Detroit lost all their coordinators. I expect them to take a step back
Tomlin finally has his first losing season
The Chargers hype is done. Last year with the 30th easiest schedule they still struggled to win and when finally facing a pass rush from a playoff team they folded. Their schedule is much tougher this year
Here’s Swami
Buffalo over 11.5. $200
New England over 8.5. $100
Pittsburgh under 8.5 $50
Detroit under 10.5 $50
Chargers under 9.5 $50

Week one and Superbowl picks to come

    Tonight’s game. I know Philly is a huge favorite and I am not a Dak or Cowboys fan but for some reason Dak has owned the NFC East. He is 9-4 vs Philly and 32-8 against the east. I’m hoping for a closer game and maybe a back door cover.
    Dallas +8.5 for $50

    I'll agree as long as the Patriots have a better season than the Bills.

    I know this is absolutely insane and I’ll regret it by 3 pm tomorrow. Cincinnati is 1-11 the last 3 years in the first 4 games of the season. Why? I have no idea. Burrow absolutely tanks against Cleveland straight up. Oh well.
    Cincinnati -5 for $50
    New England-2.5 for $25
    Detroit +2 for 25

    I got Cincy and Pat's both in a dreaded "Parlay" which I said I was going to avoid this year lol

    I like the dogs today.
    Cincinnati +3.5 for 100
    Houston +2 for 100

    I have more faith in Browning than Wentz and Houston has won 8 of the last 10 against Jacksonville.

    Green Bay was a shocker, tough to win on the road I guess but Cleveland deserves credit especially on D

    Dallas reminding everyone that they are not good

    700 upsets and I pick the two that we’re even close. Geez

    Tough beat. I escaped with a 43 push. I was hoping for OT.

    Those mind changing bets always seem to come back to haunt you. Had my share.
