NFL Week #6 Picks


We got back on track last week sweeping the 3 college games and splitting the 4 NFL games. Dallas won but didn’t cover, and the Jets inability to stop the Wildcat shocked me. It remains to be seen if that offense is a gimmick or a valid NFL scheme. But if they are going to continue to lead the NFL in rushing and time of possession, at some point it has to stop being called a gimmick.

So after 5 week’s we are up almost 29%. Not bad. In a few weeks we’ll pick the charity that the winnings will go to. Oh, there will be winnings………

Week #1 = + $77.50
Week #2 = + $72.50
Week #3 = + $20.00
Week #4 = - $12.00
Week #5= + $129.50

Total = + $287.50 after 5 weeks.

Remember, we are using a $1,000 betting pot to start out with so we are up 28.7% after 5 weeks (winnings go to charity). Gotta turn it back around this week, here we go……

We are going to take Rutgers for the 2nd week in a row. This time we will take them as a DOG to win the game. Woof!
$50 – Rutgers +3.5 MONEYLINE (+150)

Iowa doesn’t lose until they do. Another DOG. Woof, woof!
$100 – Iowa +3.0 MONEYLINE (+120)

Air Force will fly (we’ll, they will run wild) in Wyoming
$50 – Air Force -9.5 (-110)

Central Florida will be no match for Miami
$150 – Miami -14.5 (-110)

Hard for me to see the NY Giants as DOG to anyone on any field right now.  Meow!
$50 – NY Giants + 3.0 (+160)

Detroit gets blown out
$50 – Green Bay - 13.5 (-110)

Oakland gets blown out AGAIN.  Ugh.  This one could be ugly.
$50 – Eagles – 14.0 (-110)

I don’t know how they are 0-5, but Tennessee just isn’t that bad
$50 – Titans +9.0 (-110)

That’s 8 games (a lot) risking $400. We mentioned what often happend when you take too many games (us usually end up going nowhere) but let’s see if we can really make some headway. See you next week. Good luck.
