FRANK’S CUTTING ROOM FLOOR FOR WEDNESDAY, 9/30:

My “Cutting Room Floor” plays are the situations I considered the closest to being worthy of investment but did not make the “final cut” for my official plays today for subscribers. Take the Tennessee Titans plus the points versus the Baltimore Ravens. Tennessee (0-3) remains winless this season after their 12-7 loss on the road in New York against the Giants as a 2.5-point underdog on Sunday. The Titans have covered the point spread in 5 of their last 7 games after losing three games in a row. And while first-year head coach Robert Saleh has a 23-35 ATS mark in his head coaching career mostly with the New York Jets, those Jets teams covered the point spread in 9 of their 13 games played in October which suggests his ability to make adjustments after the first month of the season. Baltimore (2-1) comes off a 34-31 last second victory against Dallas on Sunday in that game played in Brazil as a 3-point favorite. The Ravens return home where they have failed to cover the point spread in 8 of their last 10 games. They have also covered the point spread in 10 of their last 16 games when favored. Take Tennessee plus the points. Best of luck — Frank.

1* Free Pick on Steelers/Browns: under 38½

Neither of these teams has shown they can carry half of this number.

The Steelers are averaging 17.67 points through 3 games this season.

The Browns are at 18 even.

That's under 36 combined before you account for a Thursday night divisional grinder.

Pittsburgh's offense finally woke up Sunday against the Bengals, but that was one game.

Two weeks earlier they scored 3 points at New England.

Now they travel on 4 days' rest behind a rebuilt right side of the line.

Rookie Max Iheanachor just made his first NFL start at right tackle and guard Gennings Dunker is on IR with an MCL sprain.

Steelers back Rico Dowdle hasn't practiced this week either, so Jaylen Warren likely handles the whole load again.

Cleveland's side is worse.

Deshaun Watson was anything but efficient last week, Jerry Jeudy has zero catches in two straight games, and rookie KC Concepcion is averaging just 6.7 yards per reception.

This offense wins ugly.

Last week's 21-18 escape against Carolina needed a pick with 16 seconds left.

The Browns' line is a mess for a short week too.

Center Elgton Jenkins is in concussion protocol and unlikely to clear by Thursday, with Teven Jenkins and Tytus Howard both questionable.

That's a rough spot against T.J.

Watt.

Both defenses are the strength here.

Browns tackle Mason Graham leads all defensive tackles with 4 sacks through 3 games.

Last December these two played a 13-6 game in Cleveland.

Low-ceiling offenses, hurting offensive lines, short prep.

That points one direction.

I like the Under

Triple Perfect NFL Thursday night TOP play up. Prime time games 5-0 on. We also have a PERFECT CFB Side and Early Season NHL. WNBA Comp play below

The WNBA Comp play is on Indiana plus the points. Game 3 home favorites in round 1 have not covered off a road dog and spread loss in game 2 and a home win and cover in game 1. The Fever have won 2 of 3 here in Las Vegas this season and should hang around for the cover here. Take the point with Indiana. GL Rob V-

Free Play from Doc’s Sports: Take the Over in Maryland Terrapins at Nebraska Cornhuskers (4 p.m., Saturday, October 3, FS1). We faded Maryland with last week’s free play, and the Terrapins delivered a rough performance in a 54-3 home loss to UCLA. That result has turned up the heat on their head coach, and we expect a better offensive effort this Saturday. The bigger concern remains Maryland’s defense, which surrendered 34 points to Virginia Tech before allowing 54 to UCLA. Nebraska has been piling up points, scoring 49, 56, 34, and 31 in its first four games of 2026. With the Cornhuskers rolling offensively and Maryland looking to respond, we like this matchup to go over the total. Back the Over.

Colts -3

Indy has the cleaner path to controlling this game. Washington is allowing more than 280 passing yards per game, and opposing QB's have consistently found room against a defense that has surrendered 11 TD's through three weeks. The Commanders are also allowing TD's on 75% of opposing red-zone trips. That gives Daniel Jones a favorable matchup, but Jonathan Taylor is where I expect Indy to establish control. Washington is coming off an emotional win behind Marcus Mariota, while the Colts just handled a physical Houston defense. At only a FG, I'll lay it. Back Indy. Locking this in early.

My selection is on Arizona over New York at 1 pm et on Sunday.

While the Giants enter this game with the better overall record, I don't think there's any question it's the Cardinals that appear to have more upside through three weeks of the season. I really liked the fight Arizona showed in last week's loss but ATS cover on the road against the 49ers. Bettors wanted no part of the Cards after their blowout loss at home against Seattle in Week 2. Keep in mind, the Seahawks had extra time to prepare for that matchup after opening the season on a Wednesday. That's not to mention the fact that the Cards were in a clear letdown after pulling off a road upset of the Chargers in Week 1. The situation on offense is bad enough for the Giants that they elected to sign Vikings cast-off QB J.J. McCarthy. Last week's win over Tennessee had everything to do with the ineptness of the Titans and very little to do with New York's own crisp play. That was an ugly game all around that to put bluntly, someone had to win. While the Giants might have had a chance to compete this year with a healthy Jaxson Dart at quarterback, I fully expect them to quickly fall well back of the pack with Jameis Winston running what already looks like a broken offense (the fact that they're bent on featuring RB Cam Skattebo as the focal point is the biggest red flag). Take Arizona (8*).
