Picking against the spread blows.  Last week I went 8-8 against it.

Here’s week 4.  Winners (in theory) are bold:

ATL @ CAR
CLE @ CIN
HOU @ JAC
DEN @ KC
SF @ NO
ARI @ NYJ
GB @ TB
MIN @ TEN
SD @ OAK
BUF @ STL
WAS @ DAL
PHI @ CHI
BAL @ PIT

I’m away from my computer at the moment but wanted to get these picks in.  I’m finding going against the spread actually takes work, and that’s something I’m not really fond of, so last week sucked, too.

Anyway, week three picks are as follows:

KC @ ATL
OAK @ BUF
TB @ CHI
CAR @ MIN
MIA @ NE
CIN @ NYG
HOU @ TEN
ARI @ WAS
NO @ DEN
STL @ SEA
DET @ SF
CLE @ BAL
JAC @ IND
PIT @ PHI
DAL @ GB
NYJ @ SD

I have to come clean on something - last week I got distracted by cheerleading squads and was making picks by amount of visible skin as a percentage of total square inches of skin on body, belly button piercings and the level of tan and tone in legs on the respective teams cheerleaders. So the 6-7 record last week? If you’re scoring by pom-pom shakers, I’m 13-0.

As usual, winning picks are in bold:

Green Bay Packer @ Detroit Lions - The curse of Bobby Layne is almost up. Like it would matter.
New York Giants @ St Louis Rams - Superbowl champs versus one of lowest in the power rankings.
New Orleans @ Washington Redskins
Buffalo Bills @ Jacksonville Jaguars
Tennessee Titans @ Cincinnati Bengals
Oakland Raiders @ Kansas City Chiefs
Indianapolis Colts @ Minnesota Vikings
Chicago Bears @ Carolina Panthers
Atlanta Falcons @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Brian Griese has tried and failed in Denver, Miami, Tampa Bay, Chicago and now back in Tampa Bay. For as much a sGruden claims to love his quarterbacks, he sure knows how to piss ‘em off and shuffle through ‘em quickly.
San Francisco Forty-Niners @ Seattle Seahawks
San Diego Chargers @ Denver Broncos
New England Patriots @ New York Jets - Upset of the week as Mangini gets his revenge.
Miami Dolphins @ Arizona Cardinals
Baltimore Ravens @ Houston Texans
Pittsburgh Steelers @ Cleveland Browns
Philadelphia Eagles @ Dallas Cowboys - I’m loving this game. Philadelphia looked great, and it’ll give us another peek at Dallas before the Packers have a run at them.

Previous record:

Week 1: 6-7
