NFL Pick'em Week 6

Introduction

Fairly crappy slate of games this week. I feel like there aren't that many solid teams, let alone great teams, in the league this year. You have the Pats, Colts and Cowboys and that's about it. I'd say half the teams in the league are "not good" to "horrible." But the season isn't half over so maybe someone else will emerge.

I feel like I'm getting stronger as the season wears on. Watch me eat me words this week.

1
 

STL + 9.5

 
Too many points, even for a team as shitty as STL.
2
Complete

Washington +3.5

 
I think Washington could be a contender. All depends on Jason Campbell. I think if they win on the road this week they are legit.
3
 

Tennessee +3

 
I like this being under a field goal.
4
Complete

KC +3

 
Can't give KC 3 at home. Cincy probably wins by 3. I wish I had that hook.
5
Complete

Philly -3.5

 
Huge game for Donavon. They blow out the Jets here.
6
 

Houston +6.5

 
I like dogs this week
7
 

Chicago -5

 
Chicago D gets healthy against a crap Minny team.
8
Complete

Cleveland -4.5

 
Browns rack up some points here
9
 

Arizona -4.5

 
Kurt Warner revival.

Hilarious quote from the Sports Guy column today, "My friend Ace had a really good theory about Kurt Warner's apparent resurgence: Yeah, he's 36 years old ... but those are Christian years. Warner never accumulated any of that smoking-drinking-partying wear-and-tear, so he's 36 on paper but maybe 27 or 28 physically. (As opposed to John Daly, who's 41 on paper but 235 years old physically.) It's like how boxers who spend extended stretches in jail are always described as a "young 35." So maybe Warner's comeback isn't as improbable as it seems."

Oakland +10.5

 
I am not back on the SD bandwagon. Prove it to me first.

NE -5.5

 
too good. Cowboys have show a little shakiness in their undefeated start, Pats not so much
12
Complete

New Orleans +6.5

 
They win the game outright
13
 

ATL +3.5

 
Giants win by 3

If the Chargers lose to Oakland they should forfeit the season. Oakland is horrible.

I'll check the winners after they are over.

The numbers represent the vegas line. So if you see Houston +6.5, that means Houston can lose the game by six points and people that bet on Houston still win their bet by a half point.

Conversely the favorite must win by at least 7 in this instance for the bettors to win on them.

Mr. Raant is picking his games straight up (without a spread) which should be easier.
