Carolina’s 71 points are the most through two games in team history. The Panthers are also one of four teams this season to score 30-plus points in each game.

This total is too low for a matchup with explosive young pass-catchers on both squads.

Though he's been better than expected early on, I wouldn't be surprised if Browns fans turn on Deshaun Watson in Cleveland's home opener if he starts poorly. This will be his first game at Huntington Bank Field in nearly two years. He was booed there during the preseason.

The Panthers were one of my three featured NFL moneyline picks ahead of Week 2. Oddsmakers are still underrating Carolina even after thumping the Falcons 34-3 in Atlanta. Like last week, the primary reason behind this pick is the stellar play of Panthers QB Bryce Young.

Picking the Tennessee Titans isn't about having much faith in them, but my complete absence of belief in the New York Giants’ ability to create anything resembling a cohesive offense without Jaxson Dart under center. 

Jameis Winston was a ghastly 11-for-27 and amassed just 111 passing yards, along with a pick, in relief of Dart at SoFi Stadium on MNF.

Army ranks 10th in time of possession and will keep the ball away from Temple's offense by running effectively and keeping the clock moving.

Army leads the nation in rushing yards per game. Temple ranks 83rd in yards allowed per carry.

Navy's defense allowed 38 points to Florida Atlantic, an offense that managed just 16 against FIU. Meanwhile, UAB has struggled to stop the run, so Navy should find enough success on the ground to hit this Over.

Navy's defense just allowed 38 points to Florida Atlantic. And while Navy scored 30 points in that game, seven of its first eight drives ended with 32 or fewer yards and zero points.

This number is too high with Dru Brown starting instead of Zach Collaros. Not only has the Argonauts' defense improved recently, but the Blue Bombers have scored just 49 total points across Brown's last two starts.

While Makai Polk returning for the Argonauts is a plus, it shouldn't move the spread drastically. However, the Blue Bombers starting Dru Brown in place of an injured Zach Collaros is a significant downgrade, and the Argonauts should be favored in this spot.

It's been hard to justify taking the Under in a Lions game recently. BC has scored 45 or more points in two of its last three games, with the Over going 3-0 in that span.

BC is averaging 16.4 more points per game than Saskatchewan over its last five games and is coming off a 19-point win over the Alouettes, the betting favorite in the Grey Cup odds.

Free moneyline picks

A moneyline pick is simply wagering on who will win a game - no point spreads involved. Odds show favorites with a minus (‑) and underdogs with a plus (+).

Imagine the Knicks are favorites and the Nets are underdogs:

TeamMoneyline Odds
Knicks–250
Nets+400
  • $100 on Knicks (‑250) → Profit = $100 × (100 / 250) = $40 (total payout $140)
  • $100 on Nets (+400) → Profit = $100 × 4 = $400 (total payout $500)

Free Over/Under picks

Over/Under betting doesn’t care who wins the game, just how many points, runs, or goals are scored, or how long a fight lasts.

  • Book sets a line → i.e., Over/Under 54.5 for a football game
  • You choose:
    • Over 54.5
    • Under 54.5
  • Odds are usually around –110, meaning you bet $110 to win $100 (and your $110 stake returns $210 total)
  • If the final score is:
    • 56–22 (total 78) → Over wins
    • 24–20 (total 44) → Under wins
  • Pushes are avoided thanks to the half-point; i.e., 54.5 guarantees Over or Under wins
    • If the total is set at 54 and that’s the exact final score, all bets on either side will be refunded (voided) as a tie

Free spread picks

Our expert picks typically focus on picks against the spread as one of the most popular bets in any team sport. Run lines and puck lines are used in baseball and hockey, respectively, but refer to the same thing.

  • The favorite is shown with a minus (–) and must win by more than the spread to cover
  • The underdog has a plus (+) and must either win outright or lose by fewer points than the spread
  • Spreads often include a .5 (i.e., 3.5) to avoid a tie or “push.” If the final margin equals the exact spread, bets are refunded as a tie

Free prop picks

Prop picks allow bettors to target specific players, teams, or game events. Player prop odds vary based on probability - i.e., a prop might offer –110 odds (bet $110 to win $100) for a likely result or +250 (bet $100 to win $250) for less likely ones. Prop markets often present value opportunities, especially when sportsbooks pay less attention to niche events compared to main markets, and there are typically far more prop bets to choose from in any given game.

How we make our picks & predictions

Our No. 1 focus at Sportsbook Review is always on price shopping, and finding you the best betting line and odds for each pick. Why should you pay more (bet shorter odds) when you can fetch a greater profit at a different sportsbook all while needing the exact same outcome on your bet?

This is the most important part of the process for any game picks, player props, and futures bets. To be a winning bettor over the long term, you simply can’t be leaving money on the table by betting shorter odds when better numbers are out there.

However, this step typically follows our experts' analysis of matchups using advanced statistics, as well as player and team performance, to determine their best bets in any given betting market. Certain matchups favor certain players or positions, and we always look to who’s best equipped for success in those matchups when starting our game picks and player props.

We caution against putting too much emphasis on injuries, weather, or any narrative or news-based factor. The sportsbooks are almost always ahead of this when it comes to setting and adjusting their lines. Bettors don’t have an edge just because Patrick Mahomes won’t be playing against the Broncos on Sunday. That’s already been baked into the lines.

It’s important to balance betting on favorites, underdogs, and long shots. Favorites come with shorter odds for a reason, but they don’t always win. It’s equally important to know that longer odds represent a lower probability of a winning bet. Diversify your betting portfolio, manage your bankroll, and track your results.

Why trust our experts?

Sportsbook Review has been around for more than 20 years, and is a trusted source of betting picks as well as honest reviews of our best sports betting sites.

We carefully match our betting experts to the sports and topics they’re most passionate about to recommend picks they’re betting themselves. Our 1-to-5-star confidence rating is based on the matchup, their research, and the implied probability of the odds. It’s rare to see a 5-star pick on home run and touchdown predictions, as well as futures bets, due to the inherent nature of those betting markets and the lower implied probability of the longer odds.
