The touchdown market has become one of the most popular and potentially profitable props in the NFL betting world. Each week, we’re going to throw down three to four units as we try to uncover some of the best weekly NFL TD props and dig into the matchups that surround them. 

Last week, we were really close to a massive payday. Ty’Son Williams cashed at +290 but Brandin Cooks had 132 scoreless yards, Damien Harris fumbled on the 11-yard line in the fourth while Hayden Hurst couldn’t find the endzone. That’s in the past. On to Week 2.

It’s kind of crazy that the San Francisco 49ers and the Dallas Cowboys is the only game of the Wild Card round that isn’t a rematch, but even without that extra data, there is still plenty of value to be found when it comes to NFL player prop bets.

Dak Prescott and the Cowboys had one of the NFL’s best passing offenses this season but is this the air attack you should be focusing on when making your bets?  Find out in our free player props and predictions for the 49ers vs. Cowboys.

The Tennessee Titans and Jacksonville Jaguars face off in a win-or-go-home clash on Saturday. The victor will claim the AFC South title and a trip to the postseason while the loser hits the golf links.

With so much on the line for both sides, we know that players for both teams will be giving 100%, which doesn’t always happen in the final week of the regular season.

That has me betting on big games from Trevor Lawrence and Derrick Henry while backing Tennessee’s stout run defense with my best Titans vs. Jaguars NFL prop picks for January 7.

After almost knocking off the Chiefs in prime time last week, Zach Wilson and the New York Jets head to altitude to take on the Denver Broncos, who just gave up career-high numbers to Justin Fields last week before making a miraculous comeback. The home side has climbed to a 2.5-point favorite in the NFL odds with a total that is also heading north after sitting as low as 40 on the look-ahead. 

With some confidence coming off a solid performance vs. the Chiefs and facing arguably the worst defense in football, should bettors be backing Wilson for a second straight profitable week?

Here are my free NFL picks and predictions for this Week 5 matchup of Jets vs. Broncos on October 8.

The Chicago Bears host the Atlanta Falcons in Week 17 of NFL action this afternoon. While the 6-9 Bears have less than a 1% chance of making the playoffs, they are playing their best football of the season while the 7-8 Falcons are just one game behind the Buccaneers in the NFC South.

NFL odds opened with the Bears installed as 3-point home favorites with the Over/Under at 37.5. Here are my best free NFL picks and predictions for the Falcons vs. Bears on December 31.

A “Battle of the Birds” brings NFL Week 2 betting to an end when the Philadelphia Eagles host the Atlanta Falcons on Monday Night Football. 

Philly put its poor finish to 2023 behind it with a big win over Green Bay in Brazil last Friday. Atlanta, however, fell flat in its Week 1 debut with expensive addition, QB Kirk Cousins, looking more like $18 than $180 million.

My early Falcons vs. Eagles predictions and NFL picks expect Philly to fly high once again in Week 2.

It was billed as a glorious festival of football across 12 European cities, from Bilbao to Baku, with a final played at Wembley Stadium in July. But on Tuesday the Euro 2020 football championship became the biggest major sporting event to be postponed because of the coronavirus crisis, reset for 12 months later.

The decision was confirmed after European football’s governing body, Uefa, held a teleconference with the leagues, clubs and players’ union. Uefa’s hope is that postponing the tournament will free up space in the football calendar for the backlog of previously postponed domestic matches to be played in the summer. However, that will depend on the Covid-19 pandemic being subdued.

Pep Guardiola has claimed that Jack Grealish, Kyle Walker and Riyad Mahrez were “perfect” during a night out enjoyed by the Manchester City players and some backroom staff on Sunday.

Video footage that went viral on social media showed the players apparently being turned away from a bar in Manchester, with the person who filmed it claiming Grealish was “drunk”. The club denied this and said no rules had been broken with regard to the timing of the evening because Monday was a day off.

Guardiola brushed off the incident by joking: “I’m so upset because they didn’t invite me. I don’t like it – hopefully next time they can invite me for dinner. The video didn’t show exactly what happened.”

The word was that it had been an arranged marriage, organised behind Sandro Tonali’s back. Throughout Newcastle’s pre-season tour of the United States Eddie Howe’s £55m Italy midfielder appeared dispirited at times, surly even. It seemed his affections still lay elsewhere.

Italian journalists reported that the 23-year-old turned tearful when Milan told him the offer from north‑east England was too good to reject and Tonali subsequently described the move as a “very difficult decision” and the “start of a hard uphill journey”.

The WNBA will usher in a pair of rule changes for the 2024 season, revising the replay challenge format while also eliminating 20-second timeouts. Teams will be awarded a second coach's challenge if the first one was successful. In a continuation of the previous rule, teams still will need to have a timeout in order to initiate a replay challenge. Challenges are limited to a foul call, an out-of-bounds violation, goaltending or basket interference. Teams will now have five "team" timeouts and one "reset" timeout, in a change from four full team timeouts and two 20-second timeouts in previous seasons. A reset timeout allows teams to advance the ball and make substitutions but not huddle with coaches. Teams can use a reset timeout in the final two minutes of re…
