Zolak & Bertrand: The Football Card – Week 10
The crew owns a record of 26-19 after Week 9 with Beetle, Zo, T-Bone, and Hardy all winning last week. Unfortunately, Milliken was the only loser once again.
Zo took the under (50.5) for Dolphins-Chiefs in Germany and nailed it. Beetle bet on the Bengals (-1) to handle the Bills and won his 7th straight. Hardy bounced back by putting his faith in the Chiefs (-1.5) to handle Mike McDaniel and company. T-Bone was right about the Raiders (-1.5) responding after firing Josh McDaniels, as they put a beatdown on the Giants. Lastly, Milliken fumbled the parlay again by taking the Patriots (-3) over the Commanders.
One of the biggest questions we get each week is what betting lines do we make our picks from. In past years, sports betting wasn’t allowed in Massachusetts, but that barrier has finally been broken down. Check out Bet MGM to see the exact same lines the guys are looking at.
Scott Zolak/Joe Murray (5-4): Commanders @ Seahawks – Seahawks (-6.5)

Zo is out, which means Joe Murray is in. After taking a beating against the Ravens last week, the Seahawks are due to bounce back against a Commanders team that barely survived the Patriots last week. Murray has been in on this trend all season, with it bringing home money when the Cowboys and Rams were in similar spots.
Beetle (8-1): 49ers @ Jaguars – 49ers (-3)

The 49ers had lost 3 straight heading into their bye, but Beetle is betting on them bouncing back in a big way after their bye. Deebo Samuel and Trent Williams are likely to return on Sunday and speculation about Brock Purdy not being healthy should be in the rearview mirror after a week of rest. Feels like the Jaguars are due for a letdown at home.
Hardy (4-4): Lions @ Chargers – Lions (-3)

Hardy is betting on his hometown Lions to take care of business against the Chargers. Even with the Chargers coming off one of their better wins of the season, the Lions are finally healthy with 3 starters returning to the lineup. Nice spot for Dan Campbell’s crew coming off the bye.
T-Bone (6-3): Lions @ Chargers – OVER 48.5

T-Bone is joining Hardy on betting this game, but he’s not picking anything with the spread. He’s all about the over, with both offenses currently in the top 10 for points per game.
Milliken (2-7): 49ers @ Jaguars – OVER 45

Milliken is betting on the 49ers offense doing some damage in this one, especially considering the strength of the Jaguars run defense. Trevor Lawrence’s knee should be in better shape coming off the bye. Both teams should put points on the board in a game that will come down to the final minutes.
