This is the guy who nearly snagged the MVP award last season! But here’s the kicker, according to SportsLine expert R.J. White: Maye still tossed an interception in nearly half his games, and that was against an easy schedule! When the playoffs rolled around, facing tough defenses, the trend continued. Are our Hawks, with their relentless D, going to make him pay early and set the tone for the entire season? You know Lumen Field is going to be rocking, ready to welcome the NFL back with a bang.
MLB Action: Cubs Upset Alert
It’s not all about the gridiron, though! MLB is deep into Week 25, and the SportsLine Projection Model has been absolutely on fire, netting over $700 for $100 players with a 26-20 run on top-rated money-line picks. Today, they’re calling for the Cubs (+180) to pull off an upset against the Brewers. The Cubs are one of the only teams to actually get to Brewers phenom Jacob Misiorowski this season, scoring five runs in just four innings against the dude who’s the overwhelming favorite for the NL Cy Young. Chicago’s offense leads all of baseball, averaging 5.32 runs per game. The Cubs are sending David Peterson to the mound, who has a 4.88 ERA in 12 games with the Brewers this season, but he’s held opponents to two runs or fewer in three of his last four starts. The model projects the Cubs to win 42% of the time, way above their implied odds of 35.7%. Sounds like a steal!
