Dave Cokin (@davecokin), a longtime Vegas handicapper and host of The LV Sportsline, joins us to break down every line for Week 16. Are the Rams getting too many points against the 49ers who don't have much to play for in Week 16 (6:30)? Is Baltimore actually being undervalued as 10-point favorites over the Browns (20:20)? The Seahawks have one of the best records in football, but can they be trusted as big favorites (32:44)? Who has the edge when the Cowboys and Eagles face off in the battle for the NFC East (34:41)?

Joining us again to give his favorite bets for Week 15 is Andrew Caley, a Senior Publishing Editor at Covers.com. Do the Seahawks deserve to be big road favorites in Carolina (2:15), and will either team play defense in the matchup (10:08)? Neither offense is expected to perform well when Washington takes on Philadephia (12:42), but can the Eagles' offense do enough to cover (15:41)? The Raiders play their final game in Oakland this week, and we have a feeling it's going to be a shootout (6:40).

NFL Week 15 Game Lines Reactions (Ep. 34)
Rich Ryan, co-host of The Gridiron Gamble Podcast, joins us on the show again to look ahead at the lines for Week 15. The Texans and Titans meet for the first time this season, and while the game itself is a toss-up, could there be value in the under (13:47)? The Packers haven't looked good of late, but could this be the week they turn it around when they take on the Bears (25:30)? Are the Browns and Cardinals destined for a shootout (34:44)? And what is the right play in the Rams vs Cowboys matchup that has seen both teams favored already this week (47:06)? Sponsor: New Jersey Sports fans!

With a busy week for most, we've got our favorite bets for the week lined up a day earlier. Joining us to give his favorite bets is Steve Merril, a professional handicapper and owner of ProSportsInfo.com. After the Packers got throttled by the 49ers, is this a bounce-back game for them as they hit the road again to take on the Giants (2:26)? Another team that needs a win badly is the Rams, but can they head to Arizona and cover (5:38)? Two powerhouses in the 49ers and Ravens face-off, will the defenses step up or will the offenses explode to hit the over (9:27)? There's one game in particular that we want to avoid this week (27:06) and there are two props we fancy early on (33:06). Sponsor: BetMGM - New Jersey Sports fans! Don’t watch a game without downloading the BetMGM Sports app. Sign up before the games on Thanksgiving, place a $1 moneyline bet on any Thursday team and if a single touchdown is scored, you automatically win $200 in bet credits.

NFL Week 13 Game Lines Reactions (Ep. 30)
Rob Pizzola, a pro sports bettor, joins us to look ahead at the lines for Week 13. Can we finally trust the Bears facing a Lions team littered with injuries on a short week (1:14)? Will Andy Dalton be enough to help the Bengals win their first game of the season against the Jets (15:10)? How will the Browns and Steelers fare in their rematch of the game that ended in a brawl just two weeks ago (21:50)? The Packers are coming off a blowout loss, but seem like a solid play laying less than a touchdown against the Giants (27:30). And finally, is the total high enough when the Vikings travel to take on the Seahawks on Monday night (47:05)? Sponsor: New Jersey Sports fans!
