"Solak, Seth Walder and Matt Bowen bring different perspectives into how they approach sports betting. Solak leans on his expertise in player evaluation and the X's and O's to find edges, while Walder relies on statistical models to pick out plus-expected value bets. Bowen, a former NFL safety, predicts positive matchups and game winners from tape study and his understanding of the league."
"These weekly picks will not be limited to a certain bet type. From spreads and money lines to totals or even defensive player props, a good price might be found anywhere. Results will be tracked throughout the season, with flat one-unit wagers for each listed bet. With that, let's dive into Week 9. As always, odds are from ESPN BET Sportsbook."
"Bowen: The Colts are averaging a league-best 32.9 points. Balance in the call sheet. A game changer at running back in Jonathan Taylor. Plus, Daniel Jones can play as a point guard, with versatile pass catchers at all three levels of the field. Expect more points here against a Steelers defense that lacks team speed. Let's take the Colts to cover on the road."
A weekly NFL betting column assembles three analysts with different methods to find betting value. One analyst uses player evaluation and X's and O's, another uses statistical models to identify positive expected value, and a former NFL safety uses tape study and matchup insight. Picks span spreads, money lines, totals, and defensive player props when available. All listed bets are tracked with flat one-unit wagers throughout the season. Odds for the picks are taken from ESPN BET Sportsbook and defensive prop bets will be added as they become available.
