Week Five Picks

I finished second last week.  Clearly thinking less is panning out for me.

Sunday

BUF @ ARZ (-1)

This line makes no sense.  Earlier this season I would have assumed that meant I should go with Arizona.  Now, no.

KC @ CAR (-9.5)
Carolina might win the Super Bowl in four months and I'll still be explaining all the ways I'm not sold on them.

 

CHI (-3.5) @ DET

I hate this pick.

CIN @ DAL (off the board = straight up even)
Ok, I'll take the freebie.

 

TB @ DEN (-3)
Home team. 

 

ATL @ GB (off the board = straight up even)
Home team.

 

IND (-3) @ HOU
Houston looks like a team that's going to be tantalizingly close to not sucking all season.

 

PIT @ JAX (-4)
Jacksonville might have the worst home crowd in the league.

 

NE (-3) @ SF
Two weeks to prepare, I'll give the edge to Belicheat.

 

SEA @ NYG (-7)

Giants continue to romp through easy part of the schedule but seven points is too many.

WAS @ PHI (-5.5)
Ditto here.  I think Philly wins, but 5.5 is a lot in this division.

 

SD (-6.5) @ MIA
Unless this team really has started permanently sucking.

 

TEN (-3) @ BAL
Love that defense.

Monday
MIN @ NO (-3)
Score:  Not sure either of these teams should ever be favored by more than one.  NO 23 -- Min 21
