About Last Night
Patriots shut out Falcons on Thursday Night Football
NFL Week 11 began with the New England Patriots in ominous form, shutting out the Atlanta Falcons 25-0 in a game which saw 3 different Falcons QBs throwing interceptions. The Pickswise team made a great start to the NFL week with Andrew Wilsher’s picks of Patriots -6.5 and under 47 both cashing comfortably. We’re now 10-2 with our TNF picks over the past 6 weeks! The 7-4 Patriots are +270 to win the AFC East with FanDuel Sportsbook and +1700 for the Super Bowl. Read what Ricky Dimon made of the game in our TNF reaction article.
Great night in the NHL for Pickswise Nation
The Pickswise NHL team smashed their Thursday picks, going 8-3 on the sides for the 11-game card, including our 3-star pick on the Penguins money line. Not only that, but our Thursday NHL parlay of the Flames, Penguins and Wild also cashed at +355 odds.
Totals looking good in the NBA
It was an up and down night in the NBA, with little success on the sides but a 5-1 record on the totals! Our top player prop of over 1.5 Tyrese Maxey made threes also cashed at +128 odds.
