Nick Wright· Nov 15, 2025

Hosting the Week 11 NFL gambling show, he gave five against-the-spread picks (Miami, Chicago, Tampa Bay, San Francisco, Kansas City) and several outright winner calls in games he was staying away from.

“I think Chicago likely wins this game outright, and I'm getting three points.”

Each one is scored on its own against the published methodology. A pundit naming several outcomes is graded on each, not on all-or-nothing.

  • San Francisco 49ers to beat Arizona

    “Just feels like San Francisco can control this game and win by three points. And I'm only laying the two and a half. So I'll take San Francisco minus the two and a half”
