Cohen’s Corner Week 5 NFL Picks

We’re approximately one-quarter of the way through the NFL season…and for the most part we have a good feeling on what most teams are all about. The Rams are really, really good. Pat Mahomes of the Chiefs is really, really good. The Cardinals on the other hand, well not so much. While Josh Rosen gives […]

Week 6 CFB Expert Predictions

It’s been a rough college football season for me…and we’re only 1/3 of the way through! UofA is 2-3 and there’s simply no reason for optimism coming from the program. Kevin Sumlin isn’t coaching ‘his guys’ and the new offensive system has turned dynamic playmaker Khalil Tate into a substandard pocket passer. But I’m hopeful […]

Cohen’s Corner Week 4 NFL Picks

Looking for the correct Monday Night Football results? Evidently I’ve been pretty good in Cohen’s Corner thus far in 2018! In Weeks 2 and 3, I have given the exact result of the MNF game on this blog: 24-17 Bears over Seahawks and 30-27 Steelers over Bucs. I’ll try not to cough up a lung […]

Week 5 CFB Expert Predictions

Over the summer, I made a ‘friendly’ wager with a former USC QB acquaintance of mine that the Wildcats would absolutely win the game. In fact, I was so confident that I kept upping the wager until the two of us settled on a fair prize for the winner. Now I wish I could take […]

Cohen’s Corner Week 3 NFL Picks

Poor Arizona fans. The DBacks collapsed down the stretch and are all but certain to miss the playoffs. The Suns and Coyotes don’t appear ready to contend anytime soon so the next great hope was the Cardinals. And through two weeks they have 6 total points…how sad is that? The offensive weapons outside of Larry […]

Week 4 CFB Expert Predictions

College football can be the most unpredictable of sports. I mean – ASU losing to San Diego State, playing with an untested, backup QB…are you kidding me? Wisconsin losing…at home…to BYU…who barely held on to beat a bad Arizona team the other week? But that’s what makes this sport so fun. The roller coaster of […]

Cohen’s Corner Week 2 NFL Picks

How did Aaron Rodgers pull off the miraculous three touchdown 4th quarter comeback in Week 1 against the Bears?! As a Green Bay fan, I gave up hope after seeing my favorite player leave the game in the second quarter and eventually take a cart ride to the locker room. But sometimes true greatness is […]

Week 3 CFB Expert Predictions

Let me get this out of the way right now – I HATE college football already this year! My Arizona Wildcats, the team I predicted would go 9-3 and win the Pac-12 South, are a BAD 0-2 with little hope in sight. Khalil Tate, the supposed Heisman hopeful, looks no better than a benchwarmer at […]

Cohen’s Corner Week 1 NFL Picks

Last season I had a respectable 171-85 (66.8%) record picking NFL games straight up while still finding a way to stay above .500 against the spread (141-114-1, 55.3%). Can I improve on that in 2018? Looking ahead at this week’s slate, I don’t see a ton of upsets on the docket…here we go:

Week 2 CFB Expert Predictions

Week 1 was an unmitigated disaster for my college football picks. Most importantly for me, though, Arizona’s U-G-L-Y loss to BYU showed too many flaws for me to pick them for much more than a six win team in 2018. Optimistically I’m going to give them a shot in Houston this week but my head […]
