Ryan: Titans I will never pick Jacksonville. Never. Keegan: Jaguars This definitely seems like a trap game to me for the Titans. Nationally televised, a chippy and underperforming Jaguars team, and an inconsistent Titans … Continue reading ITB Staff Picks: NFL Week 14

Although the Packers kept their game closer, Seattle is only five days removed from their loss. This is a big time comeback game for a team vying for a Wild … Continue reading ITB Staff Picks: NFL Week 11

Sometimes I wish the Eagles didn’t win the fucking Super Bowl. I don’t mean to sound ungrateful, but as ITB’s marquee Eagles fan, I can tell you that the panic button and I have had an extremely abusive relationship this year. As many Philadelphians and longtime Birds fans can also attest to, the 2018-19 NFL season is unfortunately bringing with it pain that is all … Continue reading Why the Eagles Suck and Why It Doesn’t Matter

The Panthers are undoubtedly good, but not win-their-fourth-game-in-a-row-that-also-happens-to-be-away-and-against-Pittsburgh good. Ryan: Steelers I like Pittsburgh at home in this matchup. Carolina is undefeated at … Continue reading ITB Staff Picks: NFL Week 10

Watt than DeSean Watson would against the top Jags’ defense. I will not make that mistake twice, especially when substituting Watson for Brock Osweiller. Ryan: Texans Miami started hot, and now they stink … Continue reading ITB Staff Picks: NFL Week 8

Last Week’s Record: Locks: 1 – 0 | Gambles: 1 – 0 Overall Record: Locks: 1 – 0 | Gambles: 1 – 0 The NFL season is perhaps the best time of the year to make money off of your friends. Fantasy football is the predominant method of laid-back pseudo-gambling amongst fans, but it can also be beyond frustrating at points. No matter how well you know … Continue reading NFL Survivor Pool Picks: Week 8

Denver @ Arizona Nick: Broncos I’m picking Denver solely because they’re not Arizona. Until the Cards can implement David Johnson back into their offensive scheme like they did back in 2016, I will bet against them week in and week out. Plus, we still need more time to see if Josh Rosen is legit. He has the right tools, but still seems a year away … Continue reading ITB Staff Picks: NFL Week 7

The NFL season is perhaps the best time of the year to make money off of your friends. Fantasy football is the predominant method of laid-back pseudo-gambling amongst fans, but it can also be beyond frustrating at points. No matter how well you know the NFL inside and out, your fantasy team could still blow if you’re stuck with a bad draft order and injured … Continue reading NFL Survivor Pool Picks: Week 7
