🏈 NFL | Commanders @ 49ers 🕒 Monday 8:15 PM ET
⚔️ PLAY: Commanders +7.5 (-110) 📈 WHY • Line sits at +7.5 after opening closer to -5.5/-7, and I’m taking “the hook” early before tonight’s money influences the number towards 7. • San Francisco is 5-0 and a strong team but they’ve left things close in a couple of games this year. • I’m fully aware of how unpopular this selection may appear, but a theme is playing out. Dogs keeping it competitive, and 7.5 will be harder for the 49ers to cover than the public expects against a team that has the ability to grind and stay within a score.
Let’s keep rolling!
📋 2026 NFL Record: 16-4
🔥 2-0 on the day, in the NFL. Both dogs covered exactly the way the numbers and matchups pointed.
💰 Arizona +12.5 cashed as an outright winner, in a low-scoring, controlled game at SoFi. Mike LaFleur’s familiarity with the McVay offense showed up in how the Cardinals limited explosive plays and forced the Rams into a grind. The market had already moved off the opening -13.5, and the result validated the closer game.
💰 Jets +7.5 covered in a 26-19 loss. The NY defense kept Drake Maye and the Patriots from pulling away.
Process over narrative. The edges were there before kickoff.
This takes my record to 16-3 in the NFL so far this season. Stay tuned gang, there’s more to come.
Let’s keep the train rolling! 🚂💨💨
Hated missing @LockInLiveShow with @unclephilslocks this morning. Traveling across country this weekend. Also, sending thoughts and prayers to TheRailBird!
That said, Week 6, here we go! I look forward to reconnecting on the Lock In Live Show, next week.
🏈 NFL | Jets @ Patriots 🕒 Sunday 1:00 PM ET
⚔️ PLAY: Jets +7.5 (-115)
📈 WHY • Opened Patriots -9.5 and is now +7.5 after sharp money cut the number, showing the market no longer trusts New England by more than a touchdown
• Jets defense ranks 4th in total yards allowed, 4th in passing yards allowed, and tied for 5th in points allowed, with a pass rush that has 17 sacks (tied 4th)
• New York’s top-tier pass rush and coverage can disrupt Drake Maye before the Patriots establish rhythm in a divisional game both sides know well

🏈 NFL | Cardinals @ Rams
🕒 Sunday 4:05 PM ET
⚔️ PLAY: Cardinals +12.5 (-110)
📈 WHY • Opened Rams -13.5 and settled at 12.5 after money moved toward Arizona, signaling the market sees a closer game than the early number • Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur spent the last three seasons as Sean McVay’s offensive coordinator and brings intimate knowledge of the Rams’ scheme and personnel • Arizona’s defense can force contested throws against a Rams offense that has lived on explosive plays rather than sustained drives
Yesterday we split our two games by going 1-1. Time to redeem myself and put a little money in some pockets for NFL Week 5.
🏈 NFL | Buffalo @ Los Angeles 🕒 Monday 8:15 PM ET
⚔️ PLAY: Los Angeles -3.5 (-105)
📈 WHY
• Opened around -2.5/-3 and moved to -3.5 with sharp money still supporting the home side
• Rams are 2-2 after a 24-20 win at Philadelphia; Bills are 3-1 after a 29-26 home loss to New England
• Stafford and the Rams’ weapons have the home-field edge against a Bills defense that has allowed 26.8 points per game
🏈 NFL | Las Vegas @ New England
🕒 Sunday 1:00 PM ET
⚔️ PLAY: Las Vegas +3.5 (-110)
📈 WHY
• Dropped from a higher number earlier in the week and is still available at +3.5
• Raiders are 3-1 and strong ATS early; Patriots are 2-2 after an up-and-down start
• Road underdog value and Las Vegas’ passing attack remains hot.
🏈 NFL | Indianapolis @ Pittsburgh
🕒 Sunday 1:00 PM ET
⚔️ PLAY: Pittsburgh -2.5 (-110)
📈 WHY
• Opened -2.5 and has held or moved slightly toward Pittsburgh while still available at the number
• Both teams are 2-2; Steelers get extra rest after Thursday night while Colts travel back from London
• Home defense and field position edge against a Colts offense that has been inconsistent
@jockowillink 72 hours is strong! I needed 72 hours just to reassess the situation, once the leaves started blowing straight into my kitchen. And my wife was asking “Do you know what the hell you’re doing?”
🏈 Quick update X gang:
Washington -3 obviously didn’t cash. I was off on that one. @unclephilslocks NCAA record has been strong, so I’m shifting to the Notebook picks for the NCAA slate today. No need for me to overthink college today.
I’ll be watching the NCAA games while I lock into the NFL numbers for tomorrow, catch us on @LockInLiveShow at 11:30a ET.
Process stays the same. One game at a time.
Be safe X gang!
🏈 NCAAF | Iowa @ Washington 🕒 Friday 9:00 PM ET
⚔️ PLAY: Washington -3 (-105)
📈 WHY
• Opened -1.5 and moved to -3 after Iowa QB Hank Brown’s shoulder sprain
• Iowa is 4-1 after a 31-14 home loss to Ohio State; Washington is 3-2 off a 25-21 road loss at USC
• Home edge if Iowa is on a backup QB and a six-day Pacific trip
⚔️ LEAN: Under 41.5 (-120)
📈 WHY
• Total has sat 40.5–41.5 all week with the under drawing sharp money
• Both defenses rank top-30 in efficiency and neither offense generates explosives plays
• Iowa’s road script and possible backup QB favor a slow, field-position game
