Football is over and most of you can’t wait for the season to start again, but who knows we may not see the NFL again till 2012.

While you are waiting, check out our sister sites thetripledouble.com and theonetimer.com. Things are starting to heat up on the hardwood. King and I have been posting NBA and College plays on a daily basis and that should continue until the season ends. I have been working this season on designing  a new accurate computer program that predicts college games against the spread.  While there are several computer or simulation systems out there, very few are specifically tailored to determine the expected spread and then compare the actually line and then produce a winning selection.  The top plays of the SMART BET COMPUTER has prodcued considerable profits, but more impressively t he SMART BET COMPUTER has also produced a daily profit based on selections for every game on the card, currently at about a 60% success rate.

If you are a hockey fan, I have convinced a Vegas local to give me his daily NHL picks.  His first post was terrible, but I have been following his picks for a while now and he consistently produces a profit.

Gentlmen, I apologize for what transpired by our latest contributor Joey G. Here at THE PASS RUSH, we’re honourable enough to not delete picks. If we are cold, we admit we had a bad week and take it like a man.

Joey G started off hot, but has been on a cold streak and his shaken confidence may have gotten the best of him. He is now ejected and Brandon and I will keep serving up winners.

To recap what Vegas and Brandon have done:

Brandon: 2/2 for his Game of the Year releases. Both have been big winners. This is to follow up a 4-1 record for his 2009′s Games of the Year. That’s an insane record.

I have not had a losing week in the NFL since week 4. Now, I’m not on a hot streak either, but I’ll take above .500 every week since week 4 any year. My record for the past 4 weeks have been 7-6, 8-6, 7-7, 8-6. That’s a 30-25 record in the NFL against the spread, which is 55%. That’s dead even with the juice, but at least we’re not picking tons of losers here and our high confidence games are having success. We’re still beating Eric Allen, who can’t even put together a winning season straight up. Fact.

There’s something we have here at THE PASS RUSH and that’s INTEGRITY. November will be a killer month for Brandon and I. Thanksgiving is always our best week. Learn about it: 10-0 Thanksgiving Weekend!

I unfortunately came down with a nasty cold, which has left me sidelined this week. NFL picks are probable. I’ll …

Brandon is back to posting his NCAA basketball picks at THE TRIPLE DOUBLE.  He had one game on last night’s card and it was a winner.  You can read why he had to take a short absence over there.  He has an NBA over/under play tonight.  He’ll be back to posting college football during the thick of the Bowl season.…

The Monday/Sunday night streak has been extended to 6-0. Thanks to a dominant win by the Saints, we came out on top for the 6th straight time on Sunday and Monday Night. Sorry for those who had to watch that game with agony (Huskers #1) due to taking the Patriots. I was smiling the whole time as the look on Tom Brady’s face in the 4th quarter was simply priceless. How could anyone ever bet against the Saints at home on Monday Night? Their offense cannot be stopped and I told you that. I was, however, expecting the Patriots to look like a team that has won 4 Super Bowls in the last decade and that team just did not show up. I was expecting them to lose by 3-7 points and did not see the spanking they received coming. What a game by the Saints.

I also wanted to let you know that my NFL picks in sum on every NFL game this week were 10-6 (62.5%), which finished in 3rd place in our Pick ‘Em League (thanks for those who join and participate each week). It feels good to get back to our winning ways, especially that our top plays on Thanksgiving and our NFL SUNDAY SPECIAL TEASER all hit with ease! Phish has just been a stud in that league with a whopping 29-18 record. Phish, if you’re reading this, give out a shout out in the comments section. Deez Nutz is another killer player who has a 27-20 record. Well done guys. If you wish, post up your favorite football team so we know which team could conquer …

THE PASS RUSH: TAILGATE TESTED, TAILGATE APPROVED!

10-0 in my last 10 picks. Let me boast about it while you guys boost my ego in the comments section after my morale was busted after 2 poor weeks in the NFL.

If you guys wanted a rebound, you got one! I told you that I would not let 2 subpar weeks in the NFL get me down.  We are up BIG on the season, really BIG. We built up a bankroll, gave a nominal amount back in the past two weeks, but we fought back and got even higher than where we were just 3 weeks ago.

I mixed it up a bit, started doing some teasers, and it’s been working like a charm, and more importantly, I’ve gotten back to college football where there are more games to pick and EASIER games to win, especially at this point in the season when you can really get a good read on a team. In the NFL, anything can happen and it usually does, but in college football, you can do much better against the spread overall despite the occasional upset that leaves you puzzled.  That’s just because the disparity between teams in the NFL are much smaller than the disparity in college football and when you can spot that, you can make a killing (e.g.: Rutgers -3 over Louisville).

The teasers have just been money lately.  If you took my Pitt teaser per my recommendation, it saved your ass since you had Pitt +7 and WVU escaped with the W by a field goal. The under 55 in that one was practically a lock, so …

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

We hope we made your Thanksgiving just a little bit better with some big Turkey Day wins.

We gave out two THANKSGIVING SPECIALS that both hit. The first special was a 7-point teaser of Packers -3.5 and Cowboys -6.5, which hit with ease. We also won both of those games individually with teasers we gave out that had the spread coupled with the over/under.  The Packers -3.5 hit with the Over 40.5 and Under 54.5, which I flip-flopped on due to the uncertainty of Calvin Johnson’s status — I recommended the over 40.5 if Johnson was active, but under 54.5 if he was inactive.  In the end, it didn’t matter since the total was right in the middle at 46.  I also recommended Cowboys -6.5 (or Raiders +20.5) with the under 47.5.  That was another easy hit no matter which side you decided to play it from.

If you instead played the spreads straight up, there were no worries there as both the Packers and Cowboys got the easy cover, although I was worried after GB fumbled the first kickoff of the game that led to a quick 7 points by the Lions.

I actually played those games with a 4-way teaser (2-to-1 odds) with GB -3.5, DAL -6.5, and unders on both games, so I was pretty pumped about that!

Hopefully, you took notice of last night’s update on the Broncos vs. Giants game.  I was onboard with the Giants, but put a “buyer beware” notice to avoid the Giants game due a feeling that the Broncos are “due for a win” along with the road trip, on a short week, …

Attention Everyone,

I have a very important announcement to make: CANNON BALL!

If you’re a dedicated readers of the site, I’m sure you’ve seen me plug the pick ‘em league like crazy. I’m going to do it 1 more time because I want to ensure that we have a competitive league with active members. I want to make sure that everyone knows that it’s FREE to join and a prize will be on the line to keep things interesting and active.

The winner of THE PASS RUSH Pick ‘Em league on Yahoo will win one of these bad boys: an NFL Shop custom t-shirt with the team and player name/number of his choice. The league information, link to register, and link to the homepage is located on the right side of the page above the frosty beer mug (if you want to donate beer so we can continue our awesomeness).

You don’t want to be late to the party and have to play catch up next week, you want to start picking games this week, so hurry up and sign up. You still have 24 hours before 1:00 kickoff tomorrow.

I also wanted to note that Brandon is amazing at college basketball (9-0 in his last 9) over at THE TRIPLE DOUBLE and I’m getting hot with my hockey picks at THE ONETIMER (7-2 in my last 9) and I have 5 great picks tonight.

Thank you for your continued patronage of THE PASS RUSH.
