Sportsbooks took another beating last week as NFL betting favorites came through left and right.

Despite the reduced slate, there are still several betting favorites on upset alert this week.

The National League Championship Series continues on Thursday night with a massive Game 5 matchup. After jumping out to an early lead in Wednesday’s Game 4, the underdog Atlanta Braves are now just one win away from punching their ticket to the 2021 World Series. While the task in front of them may be difficult, if any team knows that it is possible to overcome a 3-1 series deficit, it’s the Los Angeles Dodgers. After all, the Dodgers did just that in last year’s NLCS against these same Braves (yes, there were baseball playoffs last year…sort of). The MLB betting…
Last week was actually a very productive one for tight ends in fantasy football. A total of 16 TEs scored double-digit PPR fantasy points. Considering how shallow and unreliable the position has been in recent years, it was a welcome sight for many managers. Add in the fact that four teams were on bye (including two top-5 players in terms of ADP at the position) and it was quite a pleasant surprise. Six more teams are idle in Week 7, making it paramount for managers to find adequate fantasy football streamers. Read on for three fantasy football streamers at tight…

The MLB betting odds give the home team a slight edge to do so in this Astros vs Red Sox Game 5 matchup. This MLB…
Another week of fantasy football is in the books. There were plenty of storylines that emerged on NFL Sunday in Week 6. However, none could compare to yet another dominant performance by Derrick Henry on Monday Night Football. Not only did Henry single-handedly propel the Tennessee Titans past the Buffalo Bills, but he won several managers their fantasy matchups as well. When it comes to fantasy football trade advice for Week 7, we do not recommend chasing after Henry. If his owners are even entertaining offers, you’d have to pay a premium for him. Instead, consider some of the buy…
