Seattle Seahawks vs Arizona Cardinals Betting Analysis
BetUS has one of the sharpest handicappers in the business, Steve Fezzik, as a regular contributor. He’s an old-school guy who was making money betting on sports long before these impossibly hot models wearing next to nothing began reading their NFL hot pick of the week on X and Instagram, even though they don’t know the difference between a Seahawk and a pork chop.
I bring Steve up because he’s spot on with his Seattle Seahawks vs Arizona Cardinals betting analysis, and like him, my money is squarely on the Redbirds for a few reasons. The Cardinals are a much better team at home, having covered in 4 of their 6 contests in the desert, and have been playing tough defense over their last several games.
Yes, they lost to Seattle only a few weeks ago by the score of 16-6, but that game was very much in doubt until Kyler Murray tossed a pick-six that was returned 69 yards. This is Seattle’s third road game in four weeks, and I see another tough, defensive battle brewing, but this time the Cardinals will emerge with a win and a cover.
Pick: Cardinals -2 ½ (-110)
Buffalo Bills vs Los Angeles Rams Betting Analysis
After checking out the entire slate of upcoming NFL games, I kept returning to the NFL game breakdown on the Bills and Rams late afternoon tilt on Sunday in LA. I believe this is a rough spot for the Bills after getting a statement win over the 49ers on Sunday night in prime time. It wouldn’t surprise me if they are looking ahead two weeks to the marquee matchup against arguably the best team in the league, the Detroit Lions, in what could be a Super Bowl preview.
If this doesn’t fit the definition of a trap game for the Bills, then I’m not sure what does. I can easily see Buffalo still reading their press clippings after Sunday night’s dominating 35-10 win over the Niners before they begin rubbing their hands in anticipation of the showdown with the Lions. But what about the Rams this Sunday?
Exactly. What about them? Well, the Bills better not get too complacent because this Rams squad has won 5 of its last 7 games and will likely be running the ball quite a bit to keep Josh Allen and the Buffalo offense off the field. I believe the Rams can do this effectively, as their 1-2 ground-and-pound punch of Kyren Williams and Blake Corum can keep the sticks moving and the clock ticking.
The oddsmakers are too generous here; even though the line has tumbled a full point since the broadcast, we are still getting north of a field goal with the hometown Rams, and we’ll take all of it.
Look for a Bills’ letdown in this one.
