Recap
A look back at yesterday’s Picks 

📊 Yesterday was, admittedly, a bit of a curveball. Between an unpredictable day of college football and baseball games feeling more like water polo matches, teams behaved in ways that caught us off guard. We ended the day 3-6, adjusting our overall record to 10-11. Not our proudest moment, but remember, every day is a learning curve. Now, it's time to pivot. We thrive on NFL football, and that's where our focus lies today. We're confident, prepared, and excited to get back on the winning side. 🏈🔥 Let's turn the tide together!

MLB
Baseball picks for Saturday, September 23rd

1️⃣ Phillies -1.5 vs. Mets: 🧹 Looking for a sweep! The Phillies are making that final push towards the playoffs and with the momentum on their side, expect them to inch closer to clinching their playoff spot. Christopher Sanchez, their rising star on the mound, has been exceptional lately. While runs may be at a premium, anticipate the Phillies to take this one by a margin of at least 2 runs. Swing for the fences and let's see the Phillies drive this one home!

2️⃣ Over 8.5 runs - Cardinals vs. Padres: 💥 Fireworks expected! On paper, both the Cardinals and Padres possess explosive offenses, and while this season hasn't necessarily been a showcase of their full offensive prowess, today might just be that turning point. There's a sense in the air that these two teams will light up the scoreboard, so bank on them combining for a minimum of 9 runs. Let's buckle up for a high-scoring affair! ⚾🔥

NFL
Professional Football picks for Sunday, September 24th

🏈 Miami Dolphins -6: Fresh off an impressive showing against Bill Belichick's Patriots on Monday Night, the Dolphins are riding high. Up against the Broncos, who are coming off a loss to the Commanders, I fully expect Miami to not just secure a win, but to do so by a margin of at least a touchdown.

🏈 Vikings -1.5: All signs point to the Vikings being on the cusp of a major win. With Justin Jefferson primed and ready to make a statement on the field, I'm backing Minnesota to not only clinch a victory but also comfortably cover the 1.5-point spread. 🟣🔥

🏈 Seattle Seahawks -5: Despite being without D.K. Metcalf, the Seahawks have been impressive this season, thanks in large part to Geno Smith and Kenneth Walker. What tips the scale in favor of Seattle today? The Panthers will be missing their promising rookie QB, Bryce Young. With the veteran Andy Dalton stepping in, the balance seems tilted heavily in favor of the Seahawks. Expect Seattle to not only secure the win but also cover that 5-point spread. Go Hawks! 🟢🔵🌊

🏈 Chiefs -12.5: It might raise some eyebrows seeing such a widespread, but trust us on this one. The Super Bowl champions, Kansas City Chiefs, are going up against one of the league's most struggling teams. With Patrick Mahomes and his arsenal of offensive weapons, this game could quickly turn into a one-sided affair. We're expecting a dominating performance from the Chiefs today, so lay the points and watch them cover comfortably. 🏹🔴🟡👑

🏈 Arizona Cardinals +12.5: Don't let their season record fool you; the Cardinals have shown tenacity against the spread, going 2-0 so far. Even though they are winless, facing a huge spread like this presents good value. With the Cowboys missing a crucial piece in their secondary, cornerback Diggs, expect Arizona's receiving core to capitalize. Take the points with the Cardinals and look for them to keep it closer than many might expect. 🌵🔴🏜🦜

🏈 Buffalo Bills -5.5: The Bills are starting to hit their stride, and with Josh Allen leading the charge, they have the firepower to get the job done against the spread. The Commanders, on the other hand, just managed to squeak out a win against the Broncos last week after trailing by a significant margin. With momentum on their side and the talent gap evident, expect the Bills to cover the spread in this matchup. 🦬🔵🔴

🏈 Cleveland Browns -3.5: The Browns are eager to bounce back after a stumbling performance in Week 2. With the loss of Nick Chubb, many doubted their offensive capabilities. However, the addition of veteran Browns player Kareem Hunt is just the reinforcement they needed. After a solid week of practice and recalibration, expect the Browns to come out with a vengeance and cover the spread against the Titans. With their resilient spirit and determination to make a statement, it's Cleveland's time to shine. 🔶🔴🔥

College Football

Ladder Challenge
Ladder Challenge picks for Sunday, September 24th

Want to join us on an exhilarating journey to turn a small stake into a small fortune? Welcome to the Ladder Challenge! The mission: Transform $10 into a whopping $10,000 in ten days. Sounds wild, right? But here's the strategy. Each day, we'll pick a player prop hovering around the +100 mark. Then, all the winnings each day get rolled into the next day's wager. Through the magic of compounding, we aim to turn that initial $10 into a hefty payout by day ten.

Day 2 of the Ladder Challenge:

🔝📈 Riding on yesterday's success, we aim to elevate our $20 into $40 with a well-researched NFL player prop. Here's our breakdown:

🏈 Commanders vs. Bills Alt Over 34.5 Points: The Bills, led by the dynamic Josh Allen, have a track record of high scores, and with the Commanders' recent comeback against the Broncos, this seems like a solid pick.

🏈 Josh Allen 1 Touchdown Pass: With three touchdown passes already this season, and considering his consistency, banking on Allen to deliver at least one today feels right.

🏈 Buffalo Bills Alt Spread +11.5: While I'm leaning towards an outright Bills win, we're taking the safe route with a sizable cushion.

🏈 Josh Allen 200+ Passing Yards: After tallying up 274 yards last week and 236 the week prior, hitting the 200 mark seems achievable for Allen.

🏈 Stefon Diggs 40+ Receiving Yards: Diggs has consistently delivered impressive yardage. Facing the Commanders' secondary, we expect him to surpass the 40-yard mark comfortably.

Tighten up, folks, as we attempt to scale this ladder further upwards! 🚀📊Current Betting Odds: +119 (Available on FanDuel)

1️⃣ Justin Jefferson - Touchdown: This dynamic receiver is known for his endzone visits. I anticipate a score from him today.

2️⃣ Justin Jefferson - 100+ Receiving Yards: Jefferson has the speed, agility, and skill to cross this yardage benchmark easily.

3️⃣ Kirk Cousins - 2+ Touchdowns: Cousins is geared up and with weapons like Jefferson on his side, two TDs seem likely.

4️⃣ Tyreek Hill - Touchdown: Hill's speed and explosiveness are unmatched, expect him to find the endzone.

5️⃣ Tyreek Hill - 70+ Receiving Yards: As one of Mahomes' favorite targets, he's bound to rack up the yards.

8️⃣ Rhamondre Stevenson - Touchdown: With his ability to break tackles, Stevenson is a solid choice for a TD.

9️⃣ Tua Tagovailoa - 225+ Passing Yards: After a promising display recently, Tua's ready to air it out.

🔟 Kirk Cousins - 250+ Passing Yards: With a strong receiving core, Cousins is poised to put up some significant numbers.
