You will not have any easier pick all year than when you pick the Minnesota Vikings as 16.5 point favorites this week home against the winless Buffalo Bills. I'll keep this part short and sweat. The Bills are very, very bad, and their best player, LeSean McCoy, has injured ribs. I will be surprised if they manage to score a touchdown against a tough Vikings defense.

Just in case you have already taken the Vikings, my next suggestion would be the New England Patriots, 6.5 point favorites on the road against the Detroit Lions. The Patriots rarely lose consecutive games and Bill Belichick relishes at the opportunity to crush former assistants. I am staying away from this one only because the Vikings have shown me more at this point of the season and are facing a rookie QB in Josh Allen rather than former pro bowler Matthew Stafford. I am planning on holding on to the Patriots until at least midway through the season when they really get rolling.

Cheers!

Drink Five!

Chicagoland native recently relocated to San Diego, California. Been out here since February 2015 and have come to the conclusion that the west coast time zone is amazing for sports fans! No game is too late. I envision the perfect football season ahead: waking up by 10am, start sippin on bloodies on the couch, planted drinking IPA's by the Sunday night game and passed out by 9:30 with plenty of rest for Monday!
