Big wins for Pickswise Nation in NFL Week 11
The craziness of the 2021 NFL season continued on Sunday, but the Pickswise handicappers managed to read the situations well and pull off some big wins! Our Week 11 mega parlay cashed at huge odds of +1762 as the Colts, Football Team, and Vikings all won. Andrew Ortenberg is on a heater and also brought home a same game parlay at +1396 odds on Cardinals vs Seahawks.
Not only that, but all 4 of this week’s scorer picks reached the endzone! — and PropBetGuy absolutely crushed the Week 11 props with wins that included Jalen Hurts over 9.5 rush attempts, Dalvin Cook over 16.5 rush attempts, Robby Anderson over 2.5 receptions, Marvin Jones over 3.5 receptions, David Montgomery over 56.5 rushing yards, Jamison Crowder over 3.5 receptions, and Pat Freiermuth over 3.5 receptions! Check out all the news from Sunday’s games, which included a stunning loss for the Titans, in Ricky Dimon’s review of what we saw in Week 11.
LeBron ejected in Lakers win
There were shocking scenes in the NBA as LeBron James was ejected from the LA Lakers’ 121-116 win over the Pistons (who covered) for landing a heavy blow on Isaiah Stewart’s face, sparking a huge confrontation. After things settled down, Detroit’s top draft pick, Cade Cunningham, recorded his first career triple-double.
Great day for NHL handicappers
The Pickswise NHL team went 4-3 on sides and a superb 6-1 on totals in Sunday’s games.

Best Bet of the Day
New York Giants +11 vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers
8:15 pm ET, ESPN
The Bucs lost outright to Washington as huge favorites last week, and the week before they lost to a depleted Saints team. Tampa Bay is really missing veteran wide receiver Antonio Brown. The Giants are a great team to back getting this many points. They have been a lot better than most people realize. Just two weeks ago they played on Monday Night Football and lost to the Chiefs by only 3 points. Read our same game parlay (+998 odds!) for tonight’s game.
