Good morning, Pickswise Nation, and welcome to a terrific Thursday of sports. The NFL returns for Thursday Night Football, and we also have more World Cup action, along with NBA, NHL and college basketball games, so let’s get straight to making your next bet better!

About Last Night

Celtics earn 18th win in style
At 18-4, the Celtics have solidified themselves as one of the elite teams in the league. On Tuesday night, Jayson Tatum dropped 49 points en route to Boston’s 134-121 win over the Miami Heat. The win was big for our NBA best bet as our Celtics -9 bet cashed  for our 24th NBA best bet win of the season!

NHL mega parlay cashes at +913 odds
We cashed a great parlay on the ice on Wednesday as our NHL mega parlay (Rangers -1.5, Leafs -1.5, Over 6.5 in Oilers vs Blackhawks) came up trumps. The Rangers and Leafs beat the Senators and Sharks respectively, both 3-1, while the Oilers beat the Blackhawks 5-4.

Mexico eliminated in dramatic day at the World Cup opponent
Wednesday’s World Cup soccer was full of drama, with Argentina and Poland just qualifying from Group C at the expense of Mexico and Saudi Arabia.

Today’s Slate

Best Bet of the Day

NFL: Buffalo Bills -4.5 over New England Patriots
8:15 pm ET

The Bills come into this game having not covered in 5 straight. They were a bit unlucky in not covering against Cleveland when the Browns scored on a meaningless final drive and then against Minnesota when the Vikings posted an incredible 4th-quarter comeback. The Bills lines have been a bit inflated in general leading to this streak but the market may have overreacted in the opposite direction. To only have to lay 4.5 points here is just flat wrong. We are finally getting the Bills at an attractive buy-low spot.

Stat of the Day

The over is 8-3 in the Patriots’ last 11 home games. The game total for Thursday Night Football in Foxborough is set at 43.5 points.
