Spread ‘Em- part 6

Time for some quick picks before the game. Last week, I/Madden went 6-8. Christ, it’s like I’m actually letting a real 79-year-old make the picks.

The score so far: 1 push, 34 losses, 27 wins.

You may ask yourself why I’m still doing this. The answer is simple: because I said I would. I’m a man, I’m 28! come after me! The matchups for this week are very, very dangerous. The favorites are heavily favored, and that is always a bad sign. On top of that, Madden has me picking the favorite in 8 out of 14 games. I feel like a kid in church where the priest just said, “Open your mouth and close your eyes, and you will get a big surprise!”

1) What am I thinking?
Oakland vs NY Giants -16
Tampa Bay vs Philadelphia -15.5
New England vs Denver +3

2) Could go either way
Cleveland vs Buffalo -6
Washington vs Carolina -3.5
Jacksonville vs Seattle -1
Houston vs Arizona -5
Atlanta vs San Fransisco -2.5
NY Jets vs Miami pick em

3) Maybe this isn’t such a turrible idea
Cincinnati vs Baltimore -9
Pittsburgh vs Detroit +11.5
Dallas vs Kansas City +9
Minnesota vs St Louis +11
Indianapolis vs Tennessee +3
