Summary

Brandon Anderson is a staff writer at the Action Network, primarily focused on covering the NFL and NBA. He writes weekly NFL power rankings and makes picks for every team in every game each week, including spreads, totals, props, escalator bets, long shots and more.

Brandon also contributes to Action’s NBA coverage throughout the season and regularly appears on the BUCKETS Podcast with Matt Moore and a host of other Action NBA analysts.

Experience

Brandon has been betting on sports for his entire life and writing fantasy football columns, weekly NFL picks articles, and long-shot futures picks articles over the past few decades. 

Prior to joining the Action Network, Brandon’s writing has been featured in Sports Illustrated’s The Cauldron, Sports Pickle, Grandstand Central, Pivot Analysis, BetMGM Sports, and elsewhere.

Nobody loves a longshot future quite like Brandon, who has an incredible ability to spot a 150-1 longshot that somehow drops to 3-1 before losing with immense CLV and pride.

Education

Brandon studied Bible and Math at Wheaton College. He got his Master’s in Biblical Exegesis.

Betting Highlights
Favorite Bet of All-Time
Bet the Texans to go from worst to first in the division, and even doubled down with a Will Anderson DROY cherry on top. Joe Flacco CPOY +25000 and Nuggets over Heat +1600 exact outcome were fun, too!
Most Heartbreaking Bet
MVP bets. Tom Brady +1400 in 2021, odds-on favorite in December, but shutout vs. Saints on SNF. Nikola Jokic +900 in 2023, rightful leader all the way, but the moron voters get bored and go with Embiid last minute. Brock Purdy +5000 in 2024, odds-on favorite on Christmas, but the voters are too proud to vote for him or Dak. You're killin' me, Smalls!
