- Pete Prisco's picks column enters Week 4 at 29-19 straight up but a dismal 21-26-1 against the spread, with the veteran CBS analyst writing "I am happy October is here" after going 8-8 straight up and 6-9-1 ATS in Week 3
- Eagles (+3) will upset the Rams in Philadelphia, with Prisco picking them to bounce back from their ugly Monday night loss to Chicago while the Rams limp east after blowing a lead at Denver, calling the Eagles "refocused"
- Texans (-2.5) will beat the Cowboys at home, with Prisco citing improved Houston defense and noting Dallas plays on the road following their Brazil loss to Baltimore, while the 0-3 Texans are home for the third consecutive week
- Chiefs (-4.5) and Raiders clash as two undefeated teams in Las Vegas, with Prisco picking Patrick Mahomes to have a "big day" and hand the surprise 3-0 Raiders their first loss
- Browns (+2.5) earn Prisco's "upset special" over the Steelers on Thursday Night Football, moving Cleveland to 3-1 in a surprising AFC North matchup between 2-1 clubs
- Derrick Henry faces his former team as the Ravens (-11.5) host the lifeless Titans, with Prisco calling it the "Derrick Henry Revenge game" and predicting a 33-14 Baltimore rout
- Colts and Commanders meet in London with Prisco picking Indianapolis to win 31-30 in a late thriller, both teams coming off their first victories of the season
Why it matters: Prisco is bucking the spread market on two of Week 4's most-watched games: he likes 3-point underdog Philadelphia at home against the Rams and 2.5-point home favorite Houston to knock off Dallas, which would deliver direct losses to public bettors siding with the Rams and Cowboys. With DraftKings providing all listed lines, a strong Week 4 from Prisco could rebuild the credibility of a column currently underwater against the number for the season.
