NFLX | Aug 17, 2019 Cowboys vs Rams |
Rams +3½ -105 at 5Dimes |
Lost $105.0 |
| Play Type: Premium | ||
|
Cowboys @ Rams 10:00 PM ET Game# 421-422 Play On: Rams +3.5 (5*) The so-called sharps have hammered the Cowboys to the point they’ve moved from an opening 4.0-point underdog to a 3.5-point favorite. This massive a move is something you will never witness in regular season action. Whatever betting value the sharps perceived Dallas to possess has dissipated with this current point-spread. Besides, the Cowboys have lost 13 straight preseason away games under head coach Jason Garrett. The Rams are 5-1 SU&ATS in their previous 6 preseason home games. Los Angeles is coming off a 14-3 loss at Oakland in a game they were outgained by 217 yards. Any NFL preseason team (Rams) that’s coming off a game in which they were outgained by 150 yards or more has gone 24-8 ATS since 2015. They also won 21 of those 32 games straight up. Bet on the Rams plus the points for a 5* wager. |

NFLX | Aug 17, 2019 Patriots vs Titans |
Titans +1½ -110 at Bovada |
Lost $110.0 |
| Play Type: Premium | ||
|
Patriots @ Titans 7:00 PM ET Game# 419-420 Play On: Titans +1.5 (5*) Since 2012, New England is 0-4 SU&ATS as a preseason away favorite and all with Bill Belichick. The Patriots are coming off a 31-3 win at Detroit and did so as a 2.5-point underdog. Tennessee is coming off a 27-10 win at Philadelphia. Any NFL preseason underdog of 1.5 to 2.5-points (Titans) that scored 9 points or more in their previous game, versus an opponent (Patriots) coming off a double-digit win in which they scored 33 points or fewer, resulted in those preseason underdogs going 15-0 ATS and 13-2 straight up since 2010. Bet on the Titans plus the points for a 5* wager. |

Ross Benjamin has made his reputation in the sports handicapping industry by being one of the sharpest prognosticators over the last 15 years. In professional sports handicapper Ron Raymond’s 2008 published book “50 Greatest Sports Betting Secrets” he probably says it best. “One of the most underrated handicappers in our industry and probably one of the sharpest ones I know is Ross Benjamin.” One of Ross’ often used phrases when speaking publicly, “if you want to be a successful sports handicapper then start by thinking like a bookmaker”. Ross is 61 years old and has been directly involved in many capacities of the sports gaming industry for the last 31 years. However there is nothing he enjoys more than the challenge of picking winners in the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, NCAA Football, and NCAA Basketball.
