Free NFL Picks: Week Two

I thought the guy who played Bozo the Clown died last year?

No? Yes? Maybe?

Is he back as a creepy guy who tells you to buy online picks?

I don't think anyone knows for sure. But I can tell you this: Brandon Lang and Bozo the Clown have never been seen at the same time in the same location.

That's all I'm going to say.

I may not pick winners every week, but I can give you some solid advice when it comes to gambling.

Last week I suggested everyone stay away from parlays and teasers as they are generally "sucker bets."

Take a look at last week’s picks and you will see that only one selection would have benefited from a teaser. And if I parlayed my picks I honestly would have lost because my two top selections (Houston and Pittsburgh) both lost.

In the end I went 5-2. I admit the Washington cover was a small miracle. But in the end you will suffer plenty of bad beats to make up for the backdoor covers.

As many of you look at Week Two card please take this advice: Don't buy picks from the so called "experts."

I actually saw Lang go 0-8 with bets from Saturday through Monday night. He was a complete train wreck and he actually made people pay money for his picks.

Watch his Free Video where he stands in front of lavish TVs and ask yourself, "How does he have all of that even though he losses?"

He has build up a small fortune feasting off of people that pay him to make picks.

And what do you have to show for it?

Nothing.

Not only do you lose money paying for the pick, but you risk losing money betting on the game.

Lang is not a complete stiff. He won every document Super Bowl selection. He has a knack for winning big games too.

But in the end he's only going to have a winning percentage of about 52%. Toss in the juice and he's hovering around breaking even.

As a customer, you have to toss in the amount of money you pay him and the juice. Before you know it you're in the hole.

Use free picks as advice and then make your own plays.

If you need to rely on someone else's picks then you shouldn't be betting in the first place.

With that said, let’s get the Week Two card, which has seven picks once again. As before, the team I am selecting is listed first with a short write-up:

Cincinnati +9 @ Green Bay

I know this won't be popular, but I like this for a couple of reasons.

First, I think Green Bay comes out flat against this inter-conference opponent after winning a huge divisional game against the Bears. That game meant so much to the Pack. How pumped up would you get if the Bengals were coming to town after you just beat a huge divisional rival?

Second, Green Bay forced Jay Cutler into four picks and only won that game by six. I think nine points is a lot to lay against a Bengals offense that has the potential to put up points with Carson Palmer and Chad Ochocinco.

Not many people will want to go with this after the Bengals laid an egg against the Denver Broncos, but I'm sticking my neck out here.

Cincinnati 24, Green Bay 20

Buffalo -4.5 vs. Tampa Bay

As long as the line maker wants to install the worst team in football as single-digit dogs I will continue to bet against them.

Buffalo 23 - Tampa Bay 17

Tennessee -6.5 vs. Houston

This is a tough game to go with because I think the Titans are frauds and I think the Texans are due for a break-out year.

I am making this pick because Jeff Fisher has all of this extra time to prepare. The Titans played on Thursday so this gives Jeff Fisher more than enough time to devise a great game plan against the Texans

Tennessee 26 - Houston 13

N.Y. Jets +4 vs. New England

Let me get this straight.

The line maker is saying the following, "Either New England scores late to win or the N.Y. Jets will have the ball in their hands with a chance to win this game."

I can't believe those scenarios are actually legit, but I am going to listen to the line maker here.

N.Y. Jets 23 - New England 21

Seattle +2 @ San Francisco

The 49ers thought their stuff didn't stink after they beat the defending NFC Champs on the road.

Well guess what? The Cardinals are frauds.

Seattle is going to take this division and this game serves as a reminder to everyone as to how good they can be.

Seattle 27 - San Francisco 23

Dallas -3 vs. N.Y. Giants

The Giants offense is going to put under more pressure this week because they are going to be asked to score points to keep up with a much more potent offense than they saw last week in the Washington Redskins.

At least Eli doesn't have the arm strength to hit the scoreboard if a hail mary is needed at the end of the game.

Dallas 27 - N.Y. Giants 21

Indianapolis -3 @ Miami

I hate betting against home dogs on Monday Night, but I have to do it.

Peyton Manning won a Super Bowl on this field and on Monday Night he may give us another spectacular performance against an awful team.

Indianapolis 37 - Miami 13
