HI - Pick'em Week 2

[vegaspuck]

Thought it'd be fun to do a weekly pick 'em for fun. Show off your football knowledge skills. Last week I ended up going 9 for 11 against the spread in games I picked. Would've been 10/11 had the Cards not choked

So...I'll post the games and the spreads, you pick your winners and the lock of the week. Depending on how this runs, I may start doing weekly prizes down the road

Hopefully you all know how spreads work. Here's the Week 2 schedule:

Atlanta @ Jacksonville (Jax -10.5)
Buffalo @ Pittsburgh (Pit -10)
Cincinnati @ Cleveland (Cle +7)
Green Bay @ NY Giants (NY -1.5)
Houston @ Carolina (Car -7)
Indianapolis @ Tennessee (Ten +8)
New Orleans @ Tampa Bay (TB +3)
San Francisco @ St. Louis (Rams -3)
Cowboys @ Miami (Mia +3)
Minnesota @ Detroit (Det -3)
Seattle @ Arizona (Ari +3)
Kansas City @ Chicago (Chi -12.5)
NY Jets @ Baltimore (Bal -10.5)
Oakland @ Denver (Den -10)
San Diego @ New England (NE -4)
Washington @ Philadelphis (Phi -4)


Have fun!

What an ugly week. If not for the Pats and 'Boys games in the 2nd half of the day, I would've lost ugly.

4-10-1
(Lock - 0-0-1)

Still have some money on Philly tonight...may have to tease it up to try and break even for the week. But overall, a real ugly week. And from what I hear from my buddies in Vegas it was a big week for the house as week #2 usually is.

Still up $240 on the year with a strong week 1. However week 2 was painful...and only went 1 for 4 on the college bets on Saturday as well.

3-11-1 ATS - that's why I never bet games. Reverse karma.
Chicago should never be a double digit favourite - regardless of opponent. You can't cover if you can't score.
Just a weird weekend...

 

[Ironman Indy]

7-7-1 and I got my lock which I hoped I wouldn't

Yeah some double digit spreads that didn't make sense but still a rough week

.500 at least

 

[brisco10]

I guess I did ok not great but ok
5-9-1

Thanks
