XFL Week 4 Best Bets, Odds, Picks

The XFL enters its fourth week with two 3-0 teams and two 0-3 teams. The D.C. Defenders and Houston Roughnecks remain XFL royalty, which shows in their futures betting odds.

At DraftKings Sportsbook, the Defenders and Roughnecks are +200 and +225, respectively.

Below, we’ll offer our three best bets for Week 4 action.

Guardians vs Roughnecks

Best Bet: Roughnecks -8.5 (-110) at Caesars Sportsbook.

Here we go—a battle of an 0-3 team hosting a 3-0 team.

The Guardians still couldn’t get anything going on offense in Week 3 but managed to hold the Arlington Renegades to just 10 points. 

However, with Paxton Lynch under center and an offensive line that consistently allows sacks, it will be difficult for the Guardians to get anything going, especially against the Roughnecks.

Roughnecks head coach Wade Phillips has shown that his team is one of the best defenses in the eight-team league, racking up a league-high 13 sacks. 

Also, Roughnecks quarterback Brandon Silvers has played respectable football with the second-most passing yards in the league (723) and tied for the league lead in passing touchdowns with seven.

It’s going to be a brutal home game for the Guardians.

Sea Dragons vs Brahmas

Best Bet: Sea Dragons -4.5 (-120) at FanDuel Sportsbook

In picking up their first win of the season, the Seattle Sea Dragons finally showed their fans and XFL onlookers alike what their offense is capable of.

Heading into the season, even a more casual NFL fan would look at their depth chart, notice Josh Gordon, and reminisce over his 2013 campaign. 

Sea Dragons quarterback Ben DiNicci and Gordon had an incredible connection all game, resulting in Gordon catching six passes for 118 yards and two scores. 

The Brahmas lost 22-13 in Week 3 against a tough Roughnecks defense. That said, the Brahmas did hold the Roughnecks to zero points in the second half.

The problem for the Brahmas is their offense. While quarterback Jack Coan showed flashes occasionally, it will be tough for him to make offensive comebacks. Their rushing attack, led by former Miami Dolphins running back Kalen Ballage, has racked up yardage. Still, Ballage is sitting at a measly 3.1 yards per carry.

The Sea Dragons offense will be tough to contend with at home.

Battlehawks vs Renegades

Best Bet: Battlehawks -4 (-110) at DraftKings Sportsbook

The legend of A.J. McCarron (somewhat) continued in Week 3 as he tossed four touchdown passes. However, McCarron threw two interceptions to the now 3-0 Defenders, including one pick-six. He was also sacked four times. 

However, he and the St. Louis Battlehawks should be able to bounce back this week.

The Renegades posted just 10 points against a lowly Guardians team. They posted just 178 yards of offense, and Kyle Sloter played instead of Drew Plitt. 

Neither quarterback has looked effective this year. Plitt had just 292 yards in two games, and Sloter managed just 124, though he was efficient, completing 18 of 23 passes. 

The Battlehawks can score points, and if McCarron can limit the turnovers, they should easily put the Renegades away.
