I’ve been placing collectively notes for each recreation that Judah Fortgang and I contact on in the course of the betting episode of the PFF NFL Present every week, and I’ve since prolonged that to game-by-game betting notes for the total slate every week.
However the combined narratives in Week 18 — with a number of groups resting starters and motivations being unclear — lends itself extra to per week the place you must scour beat experiences and sift by totally different sorts of data somewhat than break down matchups like regular. So, I will not make investments the time to interrupt down each angle of each recreation like I’ve the previous few weeks. As a substitute, I’ll spotlight 5 betting angles that stand out in a singular slate of video games.
I’ve included a single-game parlay round every of those 5 angles on the backside of the part that I’ll be betting in Week 18.
