Week 5: Pickin On The NFL
I completely sucked in Week 4…but I didn’t receive any emails trashing me…so I’m assuming nobody took my advice. I was 9-5 straight up and a miserable 5-9 against the spread. There were definitely some tough games on the schedule, but someone did win my office pool by going 14-0. My underdog pick finally lost, but I’m still alive in the Survivor game. I guess my horrible production last week means I’m do this week.
Here are my year to date numbers:
Straight Up 44-18 71%
ATS 31-30-1 50%
Survivor lock of the week 4-0 (BAL, MIN, GB, IND)
Underdog of the week 3-1
My week 5 picks:
CIN @ BAL-8.5 The Ravens get back to their winning ways. BAL 27 CIN 16
CLE @ BUF-6 Flip a freakin coin, or take the home team. BUF 20 CLE 17
WAS @ CAR-3.5 The underdog pick of the week (the only dog I picked.) WAS 19 CAR 14

MIN-10.5 @ STL Big bully beatdown. MIN 31 STL 9
ATL @ SF-3 Singletary has his players and me, believing. SF 20 ATL 17
HOU @ ARI -5.5 This should be an old fashioned shootout. ARI 30 HOU 27
NE-3.5 @ DEN Denver will not be the ugliest 5-0 team ever. NE 23 DEN 16
JAC @ SEA NL Hasselbeck gets the Seahawks back in the W column. SEA 24 JAC 20
