About Last Night
Amazing day of NFL picks as we go 12-1-1 on spreads!
What a sensational Sunday the Pickswise NFL team had, going 12-1-1 on our spread predictions, including a 12-0 run on the games starting between 1:00pm and 4:25pm ET! We went 4-0 on our 3-star plays, making it a 5-0 Week 4 for our NFL Best Bets, and props expert Bobby “Prop Holliday” Stanley went 6-3, taking his total for the week to 8-3!
The Eagles remained the NFL’s only unbeaten team, moving to 4-0 with a 29-21 win over the Jaguars. The Seahawks won a thriller against the Lions 48-45, the Bills staged a big comeback to beat the Ravens 23-20 and the Chiefs got some revenge for their Super Bowl loss to the Buccaneers with a 41-31 win on Sunday Night Football.
Great set of MLB results too!
The Pickswise MLB team also had a super Sunday, going 11-4 on ML/RL picks, 9-5-1 on totals and 2-0 on our YRFI/NRFI Best Bets. Both our 3-star plays cashed at plus-money as the Blue Jays and Guardians covered on the -1.5 run line. Aaron Judge’s wait for his 62nd HR goes on after the Yankees lost 3-1 to the Orioles, while the Braves swept the Mets with a 5-3 win to move 2 games ahead in the NL East.

Best Bet of the Day
NFL: Milwaukee Brewers -1.5 over Arizona Diamonbacks
7:30 pm ET
Milwaukee suffered yet another disappointing loss on Sunday afternoon, losing in extra innings to the Marlins and dropping 3 out of 4 in the series. Those were crucial losses for the Brewers as they continue to fight with the Phillies for the final wild-card spot, with Milwaukee now sitting 2 games back with 3 games left to play. However, their hopes aren’t completely ruined yet as the Phillies have a tough series in Houston while the Brewers get to face Arizona at home. Look for an angry and motivated Brewers team to grab the win tonight. Check out our full Brewers vs Diamondbacks predictions.
