Last week showed us the drama and excitement that a confidence pool can create.
If you used our picks, then your Thursday/Sunday was just OK. Unfortunately it included seeing other players in your pool creeping up towards your top spot!
HOWEVER! Since we had our 14 point line still in play and a whole lot of justified faith in a record-setting Drew Brees and the Saints, we were able to put more space in between us and the rest of the pack!
As you’ll see soon, we will be doing the same again this week. So let’s get to it!
Week 6 – HERE WE GO!!!!
(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)
15 – GREEN BAY over San Francisco – If not for Mason Crosby, the Packers would have pulled out a big division road win last week. Don’t expect Crosby to do the same this Monday Night.
14 – ATLANTA over Tampa Bay – The Jameis-led Bucs still have some things to prove before they can gain any sort of confidence from the NFL fans.
13 – MINNESOTA over Arizona – Minnesota extracted a bit of revenge in Philly last week and I see them keeping that momentum going.
12 – TENNESSEE over Baltimore – I said before that the win over the Eagles would show the Titans are for real…but with the Eagles falling off since, THIS will be the game for Tennessee.
11 – HOUSTON over Buffalo – Houston pulled out a nail-biter last week. A home game against the Bills should be a nice cool-down for them.
10 – Los Angeles Rams over DENVER – I love when people say that the a team from a warm climate won’t be able to handle cold weather. Do you really think that the players have NEVER played a game in cold weather?
9 – Jacksonville over DALLAS – I can’t remember the last time the Cowboys were in this bad of shape.
8 – NEW ENGLAND over Kansas City – Patrick…meet Tom.
7 – NEW YORK JETS over Indianapolis –I still think that Sam Darnold can have the career that Andrew Luck should have.
6 – Seattle over OAKLAND (Game Played In England) – Seems fitting the Raiders are playing the Seahawks a week after throwing an interception on the goal line with Marshawn Lynch in their backfield.
5 – CINCINNATI over Pittsburgh – Possibly a passing of the torch game? My BOLD PREDICTION for this week is THE BENGALS WILL WIN THE AFC NORTH.
4 – NEW YORK GIANTS over Philadelphia – The week starts off with a matchup of by far the weakest division in the league. We’ll give it to the Giants since they are the home team.
3 – Carolina over WASHINGTON – I have a sense that the ‘Skins will want to come out strong after their Monday Night embarrassment, but I don’t think it will be enough.
2 – MIAMI over Chicago – The Bears look strong, and Khalil Mack will get his, but the Dolphins should be able to pull this one out.
1 – CLEVELAND over Los Angeles Chargers – I refer you to my previous comments on win-predictions for the Browns.
