Following a perfect Week 18 where I cashed +8.13 units on a four-pack of milestones, I like my Wild Card odds card even more with the trio of players I’ve dug out.
I honestly can’t believe the NFL odds on the rushing total for one of the best backs in football indoors, hitting some hopeful garbage time yards in Jerry’s World, and betting a century mark in Houston.
These are my milestone NFL picks for Wild Card weekend.

The 2-0 Bills welcome the 0-2 Jaguars to Buffalo on Monday Night Football, but my NFL picks will focus in on Josh Allen, who has had a great start to the season and now faces a defense that has struggled to get going this season.
I’ve taken a long look at the Josh Allen odds to find the very best ways for you involved on the Bills’ QB on Monday Night Football this September 23.

West Ham United have signed the Australia goalkeeper Mackenzie Arnold from Brisbane Roar.
The move was announced on the day Manchester United strengthened their squad by bringing in the England midfielder Lucy Staniforth, whose contract at Birmingham had expired.
Arnold is West Ham’s first signing of the summer and has been the W-League goalkeeper of the year three times. The 26-year-old has spent most of her career in Australia but has also had spells in the US and Norway. Arnold was part of Australia’s squad for the 2015 World Cup and the 2016 Olympics.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe has been told to “forget” his £4.25bn bid for Chelsea by the US bank overseeing the sale but has not given up hope of buying the club.
Ratcliffe made his offer last Friday, two weeks after the deadline, but a consortium led by Todd Boehly was granted preferred bidder status and is in a five-day exclusivity period, attempting to agree a deal with Chelsea’s owner, Roman Abramovich.

André Onana is concerned that if he plays at the Africa Cup of Nations he could lose his place as Manchester United’s first-choice goalkeeper.
The Cameroonian is likely to be called up for the competition that runs from 13 January to 11 February in Ivory Coast and could miss four Premier League matches. Onana quit international football after a disagreement with the Cameroon head coach, Rigobert Song, during the 2022 World Cup but has since made himself available.
Onana was at fault for two of Galatasaray’s goals in United’s 3-3 Champions League draw on Wednesday. He has played every game for United this season, including in the Carabao Cup, but the pressure is growing on him after his latest mistakes.

Some people are fans of the Oakland Raiders. But many, many more people are NOT fans of the Oakland Raiders. This 2019 Deadspin NFL team preview is for those in the latter group. Read all the previews so far here. Your team: Oakland Raiders. As you know, the Raiders are moving to Vegas one day, but are bleeding the clock on their way out of California as we speak. After reaching a tentative deal to play out their NorCal run at the Giants ballpark—because the Raiders simply cannot get enough of watching their QB get sacked on baseball infield dirt—the Niners huffed and puffed and blew them back over to their side of the Bay. Now you know how Sheldon Adelson feels, Mark Davis. The Raiders then signed a deal to stay at their current digs for this year and through next year if necess…
I was on the Jersey Turnpike when I saw it. I was driving my family to New York for Thanksgiving and there, along the shittiest stretch of road in the shittiest state in America, I saw the Williams-Sonoma fulfillment center: a vast hangar that seemed to stretch a mile long, with shipping containers lined up along the side, like piglets feeding on a series of artisanal teats. It was located in a town called Cranbury because of course it fucking was. It made me wonder if Williams-Sonoma chose the town of Cranbury specifically for the whimsy of it, or if they CREATED the town and christened it Cranbury just so that it could match their mission statement of bringing holiday cheer and $75 baskets of glazed figs to the world. And I won’t lie, it was kind of nice to see the fulfillment center…
As the deadline for 53-man rosters came to a close, the Oakland Raiders made unique decisions while cutting players. In this case, "unique" doesn't necessarily mean "good." General manager Reggie McKenzie opted to keep undrafted rookie Matt McGloin over 2013 fourth-round pick Tyler Wilson as the third quarterback behind Terrelle Pryor and Matt Flynn, which isn't exactly exuding confidence about this season's class. McGloin saw 60 snaps in the preseason as opposed to Wilson's 42, according to Pro Football Focus, and he apparently did enough with them to warrant a spot. The Raiders actually kept four quarterbacks through Saturday before cutting Wilson today, maybe to get him onto the practice squad. Even with this move, it's still a battle b…
