ADVICE

Pick With Weather And Injuries In Mind

  • Consider grabbing a Seahawks -1.5 if the early pro money lines up; weather and missing WRs complicate the Rams pick.
  • If you prefer Rams, wait for clearer weather info and injury confirmations before committing large stakes.
INSIGHT

Saturday Standalones Skew Public Action

  • Saturday standalone games often draw heavy public action which can distort lines; be cautious of overreaction.
  • Chad and Simon advise patience and looking for professional money signals before betting those specials.
ADVICE

Grab Bears Early At Small Plus Number

  • If Bears line stays at +1.5, consider taking Chicago due to momentum and matchup advantages.
