Last week was the worst one yet, as the picks went just 6-10 against the spread.  It was a great week for the underdogs and my picks loaded up on the favorites.  In all, eight of my picks for the favorites didn’t cover.  Ouch.  That brings the season record to 58-63-4.  In an effort to change my luck, as well as being pressed for time, this week’s column will just have the picks.

All odds from yahoo!sportsbook with home team in bold.  This is for entertainment purposes only.  But having finished in the red for three straight weeks, perhaps you should bet the opposite on these…

Chicago (+8.5) over Buffalo

Atlanta (+6.5) over Baltimore

Detroit (-2.5) over Carolina

Cincinnati (-3) over New England

Minnesota (-4) over New York Giants

Houston (+3.5) over Tennessee

Cleveland (-3) over New Orleans

Kansas City (-10) over Seattle

San Francisco (-6.5) over Washington

Philadelphia (+4.5) over Dallas

Pittsburgh (-2) over Las Vegas

Miami (-3.5) over Green Bay

Denver (-3) over Los Angeles Rams

Arizona (+7.5) over Tampa Bay

Los Angeles Chargers (-4.5) over Indianapolis

This week starts off 0-1 with a loss in the Thursday night game.
