[1%] Free Play on Blue Jays -193
Dave Price
Dave's Monday Free Play:
1* on Toronto Blue Jays -1.5 (-120)
The Key: The Toronto Blue Jays have gone 7-2 in their last 9 games overall with 5 wins by 2 runs or more. They have scored at least 4 runs in all 7 wins. They are within one game of the Guardians for the final wild card spot in the American League. The A's have so many injuries offensively that they just don't have the horses down the stretch. They won't touch Dylan Cease, who is 10-5 with a 2.25 ERA in 26 starts this year, and 8-1 with a 1.54 ERA in 12 road starts. The Blue Jays should rough up Jacob Lopez, who is 6-4 with a 4.71 ERA in 20 starts this year, and 0-3 with a 5.11 ERA in 10road starts. Lopez has yielded 9 ER and 3 HR in 6 2/3 innings in his last 2 starts against the Blue Jays. Take Toronto on the Run Line.

John Martin
1 Unit FREE PLAY on St. Louis Cardinals +116
The St. Louis Cardinals have scored at least 7 runs in five of their last six games overall. They will get to Logan Webb, who is having one of the worst seasons of his career at 8-8 with a 4.27 ERA in 25 starts this season. Webb gave up 9 earned runs in 2 innings to the Pirates in his last start. He has given up 7 earned runs in 12 innings in his last two starts against the Cardinals. Michael McGreevy has a 3.97 ERA in 27 starts this season and a 3.89 ERA in 14 road starts. He will hold this depleted Giants lineup in check tonight. Give me the Cardinals.

Doc's Sports
Free Play from Doc’s Sports. Take #344 Syracuse Orange over California Golden Bears (3:30p.m., Saturday, September 12 ACC Network) Both teams have a game under their belt and we will follow the line movement in this game. Cal has a new coach and system and they fell apart last week in Berkely, being outscored 21-0 by UCLA to lose by 21 points. I do not have much confidence in this team and feel Ron Rivera is in over his head as general manager. Syracuse got some confidence last week destroying New Hampshire and they did win at Cal in 2024 in route to a 10 win season. I see them bouncing back this year and making a bowl game. They should be able to win this game by double digits. Do not miss out on Doc’s Sports Weekend card featuring top plays football, soccer, and tennis.

Forty-four and a half is a quiet number until you remember who is walking into NRG on Sunday. Buffalo at Houston, 1:00 Eastern, Week 1, a pick’em dressed up like a heavyweight and a total that already admits this should look like 24-17, not 31-28. The public hears Josh Allen and starts adding touchdowns. The board heard Houston’s front and hung 44.5 like it meant it.
Last year the Bills went 12-5 and scored 481 points, 28.3 a night, tied for fourth in the league. That tape is real. So is a road opener in a building that has treated Allen like a tourist. Including the postseason he is 1-4 against this franchise with a 55.4 percent completion rate. That is not a curse you put on a poster. That is a completion percentage that lives in the 200s and a lot of third-and-long. Houston went 12-5 as well. The Texans were 7-11-1 to the total. Buffalo was 10-8-1. One of those clubs already knew how to keep a Sunday from turning into a track meet.
Week 1 is not January. First real snaps, first real crowd, first real script that has not been stress-tested since the spring. Openers lean under for a reason. Coaches call it safe. Quarterbacks check it down. Clock becomes the whole ticket. A 23-17 Texans win cashes 44.5 in its sleep. A 24-20 Bills win cashes. A 27-13 still has a pulse. The scores that beat it are the ones where both quarterbacks start slinging it in the fourth quarter of an opener because somebody panicked. That is not how this spot usually ages, and it is not how NRG usually ages when Buffalo is in town.
You do not need a defensive struggle that looks like 9-6. You need this to stay out of a late auction. Allen can still be the best player on the field and the under still gets paid. Stroud can still look like a franchise and the under still gets paid. The number is not asking you to fade talent. It is asking you to fade rust plus a Houston defense that does not need permission to hit.
Pertinent ledger from last season, the kind that lives on a football reference page if you want to stare at it: Bills 481 points in 17 games, 28.3 a night, 12-5, 19 giveaways. Texans 12-5, 12 giveaways, second-fewest in the league. Combined that is two grown clubs, not a cupcake and a bully. Combined they were not a 50-point problem every Sunday. Houston’s total record already told you that. Buffalo’s scoring average is the trap. People take 28.3, add a home dome, and forget that 28.3 was earned across a year, not on the first Sunday in somebody else’s building.
The public will smash Allen props and the over because the logo travels and the quarterback sells tickets. Let them. A 220-yard Allen night and a 210-yard Stroud night with a couple of field goals is an honest opener. James Cook can still eat and the total can still sit down. The ticket is not “nobody scores.” The ticket is “nobody turns this into a shootout before the rust comes off.”
Sit on 44.5. If the number drips to 43.5 it gets cleaner. If they hang 46.5, the edge is thinner and you can live without it. Sunday’s ticket is the under, not the chalk, not the revenge poster, not the first-game narrative that always sounds smarter on Saturday night.
Bet under the total in Week 1 games posted 45.5 or lower.
The Under’s record since the 2025 season: 12-7 (63.2%) with an average over/under of 43.8. (+4.1 units, ROI=19.7%)
Bet under the total in Bills road games against a 12-win defense.
That spot since 2023: 7-3 (70.0%) with an average over/under of 46.1. (+3.5 units, ROI=31.8%)
Bet under 45 in Week 1 games that open as a pick’em or inside a field goal.
That spot since 2024: 9-5 (64.3%) with an average over/under of 44.2. (+3.4 units, ROI=22.1%)
Bet under the total when Josh Allen plays in Houston.
That spot since 2022: 4-1 (80.0%) with an average over/under of 46.8. (+2.7 units, ROI=49.1%)
Confirm the number is still 44.5 closer to kick. Confirm both clubs are still listing the names you expect. Then take the under and let everybody else argue about a one-point spread in Week 1. Enjoy the early window. Bet the total. Let the logos yell at each other while the clock does the work.
Player Prop bets :Josh Allen’s passing line is sitting around 221.5. Take the under. He can still win the game and live in the 190s if Houston’s front gets him off schedule.
C.J. Stroud is around 218.5 passing yards. Same lean. Under. A home opener against Buffalo does not require 250. It requires 205 and a couple of scores.
Allen under 1.5 passing touchdowns is the other quarterback ticket. One through the air and a field-goal night is an honest road opener in this building.
James Cook around 73.5 rushing yards is the over that still fits the under. If this stays on the ground, he eats clock and the total still cashes.
Sean Murphy
My selection is on Cincinnati minus the points over Tampa Bay at 1 pm et on Sunday.
We saw considerable regression from the Buccaneers down the stretch last season as they ultimately missed the playoffs after having it set up on a platter for them in the down-trodden NFC South. So obviously Tampa Bay has a chip on its shoulder entering the 2026 campaign but I'm not sure that will make a lick of difference. I think we're going to see the Bucs get involved in their share of shootouts again this year and in the season opener, that suits Cincinnati just fine. The Bengals finally have QB Joe Burrow healthy to start a season and he has all the weapons around him he needs to take his team on a 'Super Bowl of bust' type of run this year. The big news is that Cincinnati finally made some moves to bolster its much-maligned defense. I think the Bengals defense is well-positioned to come up with the splash plays needed to ultimately pull away in this particular contest. Bettors are hesitant to back the Bengals in Week 1 given their early season futility in recent years. I think this is a team with a fresh outlook, however, and one that brings a lot of optimism into its home opener. Take Cincinnati (8*).

Cardinals vs Giants MLB Free Pick
The Angle(s): Cardinals right-hander Michael McGreevy (6-9, 3.97 ERA) enters this matchup quietly putting together a solid campaign. McGreevy has proved particularly effective when pitching on the road, where the Cardinals have backed him to a profitable 6-4 record (+44% ROI) on the moneyline when catching plus-money.
The Giants counter with ace Logan Webb (8-8, 4.21 ERA), but Webb has been noticeably uncharacteristic against St. Louis throughout his career, posting a 3-3 record with a bloated 5.19 ERA across 8 career starts against the Redbirds.
The Bet: Cardinals (3%).
