I don't think I did my annual NFL thread last year but if anyone cares, I skipped week 17 and went 59-55-5 ATS to make a whopping $15 for the year in that department (I was only betting $5/game).
I also went 8-6 on a combination of futures bets. Those are a bit different because I tend to bet larger but inconsistent amounts, but I ended up coming out ahead by $95.
The big one though was betting $10 on the Eagles to win the Super Bowl before the season at 50-1, so my overall profits last year were $610. Obviously that last one is more luck than skill.
That said I've been in the 52-60% range I think for 4 straight years, which at least means I'm slightly profitable.
This year I made the following futures bets before the season started:
Total wins
CIN U6.5
CLE U5.5
DEN U7
DET O8
GB U10
JAX O9
MIA U6.5
MIN O10
OAK U8 (+OAK U7.5 sidebet with Erik Estrada)
TB O6.5
TEN U8
AFC North Winner - Ravens
AFC South Winner - Jags
NFC South Winner - Saints
Last week I went 9-2-1 ATS. This week I have:
BAL ML
NE pk
DEN -6
ATL -6
NYG +3
LAC -7.5
HOU -2
PIT -5
NYJ -3
SEA +3
WSH -5.5
DET +6
PHI -3.5
Also did a 3-team teaser of CLE +16, ARI +19.5, and SEA +9.5.
