On the Season 2 finale of Sharps Cover, the full crew is back and feeling grateful after a wild 2025 NFL season. The guys sit down with the two Pick 6 champions—our own Nicky the Foot and long-suffering Jets fan (and new friend of the pod) Rob Young. Ruger then gives flowers to the NINE contestants who split the $18K Eliminator pot. America’s Cousin follows with a recap of the preseason best bets and awards predictions—shoutout to anyone who tailed ACD on Tet McMillan for OROY! In the final locks segment of the year, Coach, Ruger, and AC Dave deliver their best plays for Super Wild Card Weekend. Coach likes the Rams to put up points, Ruger rolls with three plus-money locks, and America’s Cousin goes all in on the state of Pennsylvania. The season wraps with Super Bowl Exacta bets to send everyone off properly. Follow us on X @SharpsCover and keep an eye out for offseason pool invites to keep the action going. Until next year—stay sharp.

Season Recap and Playoff Predictions

The Degenerates pay tribute to America's Cousin, who sits at #1 in the Misery Index for a number of reasons. They also discuss proper social etiquette when hitting a longshot future on a Heisman trophy winner, review strategies for Nicky the Foot as he attempts to win the Pick Six pool, and review the locks for the final week of the season.

Week 18 Locks

On the Week 16 Locks pod, the guys are shorthanded without Coach, who’s out for a “business meeting,” but they push through and recap a wild Week 15 slate. With no eliminations in the Eliminator Pool and no Pick 6 winner once again, both contests are officially headed for a photo finish. The Misery Index welcomes the Raiders into the Perpetual Hall of Suck, before the crew breaks down a strong Week 15 for Coach and Ruger—and a brutal one for America’s Cousin. Looking ahead to Week 16, Ruger and Coach reunite as lock bros on a total, America’s Cousin goes back to the well with a Tampa Bay team total, and Nicky the Foot puts $100 on the line betting Ruger that the Philip Rivers experiment is one-and-done.

Week 16 Locks

Once again down Nicky the Foot, the guys kick off the week by sorting through the bloodbath in the Circa and Eliminator pools. With only 14 entries still alive in the Eliminator and four weeks left in the season, we’re inching toward a true survivor. Another week without a Pick 6 winner means Week 15 becomes a double week, and the contenders are finally starting to pull away from the pack. Coach takes the wheel for the Misery Index, featuring a debut appearance from the Kansas City Chiefs. From there, the guys try to flip the energy with their Week 15 locks—Coach backs Tampa, Ruger rides with one-handed Justin Herbert and the Chargers, and America’s Cousin officially joins the Shedeur Sanders fan club. As always, follow @SharpsCover on X and keep staying sharp!

Week 15 Locks

On this week’s Sharps Cover, the guys look back on a rough Thanksgiving betting weekend. Week 13 trimmed the Eliminator field to 55 and finally delivered a Pick 6 winner after a three-week drought. With Nicky the Foot stranded somewhere in America, America’s Cousin Dave steps in for the Misery Index and spotlights a handful of fanbases staring down bleak futures—and, of course, Younghoe Koo. From there, the crew dives into their Week 14 locks. Coach and America’s Cousin are lock bros on the simply irresistible Chicago Bears, while Ruger calls for a weekend defined by unders. They wrap things up with a look at some long-shot MVP futures that could get a little spicy down the stretch.

Week 14 Locks

The guys survived several internet meltdowns to bring you a Thanksgiving Week episode of Sharps Cover. A tough week in the Pick 6 means we head to Week 13 with a $1440 weekly prize ahead, the Eliminator slog is real with 62 entries still alive, and the Misery Index brings back the retired Giants. The guys then recap a 6-3 week of locks with TWO exotic bets that hit! When it comes to Week 13 locks - the guys like some bad teams: Coach is on the Browns, Ruger is back on the Falcons, and America's Cousin backs Tennessee. They wrap things up by unveiling their Holiday Potluck / BYOB (Bring Your Own Bet) Parlay for Thanksgiving and Black Friday. Follow @SharpsCover on X to ride along with the locks and see if this holiday special can bring home a big win.

Thanksgiving Week (13) Locks

On this week's Sharps Cover podcast, the guys welcome back the Commish after his two week hiatus while simultaneously lamenting missing Ruger for the first time this season. The guys reflect on a profitable Week 11 before turning their attention to the Misery Index, this week highlighting the miserable QB play from around the league. No winner for week 11's Pick 6 means we have a rollover for week 12, and an uneventful week in the Eliminator leaves 63 entries still in play with 7 weeks to go. The guys then give out their locks for Week 12: Coach goes back to the well with Tampa Bay, Ruger sent in locks exclusively for game totals, and America's Cousin can't resist the urge to bet against Kyle Shanahan. Follow us on X @SharpsCover!

Week 12 Locks

On this week's episode, the guys contemplate whether the Commish is locked in Nicky the Foot's basement before lamenting their Week 10 exit from the Circa Survivor Pool. The Eliminator is down to the final 64 and we finally had a Pick 6 winner after 3 weeks! The group then leans into the Misery Index and recap Coach and Nicky the Foot's trip to Soldier Field. In our Week 11 locks, Coach and America's Cousin have their first "Lock Bros" pick in a while, and Ruger can't stop betting on the Patriots. Like, Subscribe and follow @SharpsCover on X. See you next week!

Week 11 Locks

On this week’s episode of Sharps Cover, Nicky the Foot slides into the host chair while the Commish is off being “previously engaged.” The guys kick things off by breaking down the key games that wrecked players in The Eliminator and Circa Survivor pools, then sigh their way through yet another Pick 6 week without a winner. This week’s Misery Index calls out a couple of defensive coordinators who may want to freshen up their resumes, a Falcons kicker who unintentionally kept the Patriots’ fever dream of a 1-seed alive, and, naturally, Dallas—because it’s always Dallas. The crew then previews the Week 10 slate and makes their locks. Coach tries to climb out of his slump by betting on the Saints of all teams, while Ruger and America’s Cousin both back the Giants and the Rams—but in different ways. Finally, the guys go deeeeeeep on their Week 10 Circa Survivor pick. Can they keep the streak alive in what is shaping up to be the most volatile week in Circa yet?&nbsp;
