The clock is ticking for Aaron Rodgers as he faces one of the most significant decisions of his storied career. After a debilitating ruptured Achilles tendon benched him for the season, the Jets’ quarterback must confront the Aaron Rodgers retirement question that hovers like a Hail Mary: Is it time to retire or make another run at glory? Even the best NFL betting sites would find this outcome difficult to predict, especially given Rodgers’ penchant for defying odds. Recall that Rodgers undertook a unique four-day journey into isolation before this NFL season. Nestled in a 300-square-foot semi-underground Oregon cabin with…

The NFL season is finally upon us and do you know what that means? It’s time to overreact to Week 1! Each year, terrible teams start off with a win and then end up as a top-five pick. Just look at the last two years. The worst team and eventual first-overall pick won in Week 1!  The NFC North is no different. It’s a new era in the division and we are ripe with overreaction. Will we see a repeat champion? Is there a new sheriff in town? What will fans expect to find in an NFL Sportsbook review? Green…

The NFC North is going through some changes in 2023. A long-time, storied quarterback is gone, the usual bottom-dweller is surging, and one of the top offenses in the NFL continually gets exposed despite having the best receiver in the game. Realistically, the division seems wide open. There are questions facing each and every team in the NFC North. Some are a bit more existential than others but one thing is for certain: everyone is glad the NFL is back and all of the off-season talking points will come to an end. With preseason underway, let’s take a look at…

We are getting closer to the official start of the Jordan Love era. With the anticipation for his first season as a starter growing by the day, the question of what his season will look like is being asked by both Packers fans and sports bettors. From a sports betting perspective, the question is being asked while staring at Jordan Love futures and prop bets for the season, wondering what side of the over/under to lay money on. In an effort to help complete that process for sports bettors before the season, we’ll take a look at the bets and…

They’ve gone from the #1 team ERA in baseball last season to #17 in 2023 and, for the first time in years, seem to have a lack of trustworthy arms, especially in the starting rotation. Why has LA Dodgers Pitcher Tony Gonsolin Become Unreliable? Tony Gonsolin has surprisingly been one of those unreliable arms. After a dominating 16-1, 2.10 ERA, season in 2022, Gonsolin had big expectations to help lead LA’s rotation heading into 2023, even ranking top 20 in preseason Cy Young odds at +6000. If you want to learn a bit more about how baseball wagering works…

The balance of power when it comes to the greatness of quarterbacks in the NFL is severely skewed to the AFC. Arguably, only one of the top five quarterbacks in the league resides in the NFC. Even then, he is not known as a prolific passer but more a dual-threat, excellent runner. Even then, there are a few NFC quarterbacks who can toss it around the yard. As much as we are ready for Jordan Love to fill Aaron Rodgers’ shoes, that’s not happening yet. As far behind the NFC is in terms of top tier quarterbacks, there are still…

It’s not a secret that the Green Bay Packers have some of, if not the most passionate fans in all of the NFL. Look no further to the fact that the team is a publicly-owned team and not ruled by a single billionaire owner or a small group. Any team can sell out its home stadium but how many NFL fandoms can boast how well they travel to visiting stadiums and even other countries? The Packers fans travel well and it’s no secret. The four-time Super Bowl champions (and 11-time pre-AFL/NFL merger champions) have incredible fans who will follow their…

The Big Ten has cemented itself as one of the top two conferences in college basketball over the last three years. Big Ten basketball has finished first in NET conference rankings in 2021 and second in the previous two years. The conference has received 27 NCAA tournament bids over this stretch – – the most by any conference — and had 11 teams participate in the postseason last year (eight NCAA). While the Big Ten hasn’t had an overabundance of success in the NCAA tournament recently, Michigan reached the Sweet 16 (2021 and 2022), and Michigan State did so last…

Drafting well is essential to competing. The NFC North, as a whole, has drafted pretty well of late with the Green Bay Packers’ receiving corps, the Chicago Bears’ quarterback, etc. Going out and signing prime free agents is one way of doing business. However, not every team is capable of doing so so they have to rely on hitting on their draft picks. The division feels wide-open, so the team who drafted the best over the last few years is best equipped to take over. Each NFC North rookies class has at least one potential playmaker and each fanbase has…

At a time when Adam Silver looks to make the league better, the NBA decided that expansion is a possibility to move the league forward. There are three destinations rumored to be ahead of the rest. Do they make sense? Is there a case of “been there, done that” for at least one of them? 3 Most Likely NBA Expansion Markets Las Vegas Embed from Getty Images Tourists and Entertainment Dollars Las Vegas is the favorite destination for expansion. Las Vegas is a city that brings a lot of tourists as it has avenues of entertainment. Of course the world’s…
