Bet ✓: NFL Ranking$

 The Dolphins are hopeless at this point. 

 And so are you if you think a team incapable of moving the football downfield with one quick strike in this day and age -- never mind lacking one true marketable superstar -- is going to make any kind of playoff push or get you to the 💰 window.  

 But look on the bright side: The Dolphins, short favs vs. the Jaguars this week, play in London on Sunday, so you can watch off the terrible fish smell early before making plans to be on one beach or golf course. It's time for a 'Bet' ✓ post-Week 5:

 1.) Cowboys: That's five straight ATS covers for a team routinely ridiculed. Only this version of 'Jerry Kid's' is deep and talented across the board. Yes. Even on defense. Keep going against the market still enamored with Tommy and Bradley Cooper, while you scream 'How 'Bout Them Cowboys ?!!?'

 2.) Chargers: See above. A star quarterback, above-average defense and quality head coach will move you up the chart quickly. Another team you might want to buy low on right now.

 3.) Packers: See a trend here, right? 🌟 quarterback, above-average defense and competent head coach with the ability to adjust on the fly has allowed for a few heart-pounding escapes. The next four games, all against 2020 playoff teams, including Arizona, will let us know who the Packers really are.

 4.) Steelers: I'm not jumping off now. Too much talent across the board, as evidenced on Sunday, to believe Pittsburgh can't make a run through January -- especially with an improving OL and young 🌟 RB. 

 5.) Bills: Attitude-building ATS road take vs. Kansas City on SNF can only improve a 🌟 quarterback's profile, while bring a massive defense line to the forefront. Only thing going against the Bills can be asked with one question: How good is the AFC East?

 

No. 1: Can the Cowboys (4-1 SU, 5-0 ATS) improve to 5-1 SU for the first time since Dak Prescott's rookie season - with a SU win in New England on Sunday afternoon?

 6.) Panthers: Not very impressive to the naked eye, but built to last through January. Carolina has also improved it's roster significantly in recent weeks. Keep playing those under totals.

 7.) Cardinals: Sexy pick all of a sudden. But let's see more from a run defense which has shown cracks on occasion before we think the 'Birds can go bowling. In the meantime, track those over totals.

 8.) Rams: Something seems off on offense, despite the ATS win in Seattle. Can the Rams score enough to be considered a major player late into the season? Keep your soup warm.

9.) Browns: Do you trust Baker Mayfield enough to keep betting on the Browns?  Cleveland will go as far as their OL takes them.

10.) Bucs: Thumbs up - for the time being. But this team is no sure thing to get back to the Super Bowl. Especially with significant injuries on  offense, and Richard Sherman in your secondary.
