Andy’s 2-1-1 record betting in Week 6 was the highlight of the week for us, apart from my making it another week in my work survivor picks, and his +220 on the money line for San Francisco looked particularly good. My 1-3 in the picks was..well, pretty much normal for me as of late. Pay attention to that when you evaluate my picks…
Week 6 saw me picking up one more game against Andy (thanks to my picking of Tampa Bay, which I’m not sure wasn’t actually a typo on my part), finishing 10-3 vs. Andy’s 9-4. For the season, Andy now leads 59-31 to my 57-33. Two more weeks and I should catch him.
Of course, weeks like this may separate the amateurs from the pros, with lots of terrible matchups that could go either way—in our head to head picking, it may be one of the worst matchups of the week (Denver @ Miami) that might be the turning point, although we had two other matchups picked differently…
It’s a good thing we have this website to earn a living, and aren’t relying on profits from our gambling on NFL games—we both struggled to another 1-3 week, with Andy hitting San Diego (-4), and myself hitting my super weak upset Cincinnati on the money line.
Week 6 best bets (to go the other way on):
I finally picked one game back up on Andy in Week 5, although 8-5 is hardly awe inspiring. Season standings are now 50-27 for Andy vs. 47-30. This week, just a couple of differences between us, with Andy taking a couple of upset chances like San Francisco & Carolina on the road.
By my count, Andy dropped another 1-3 week last week, and would probably have his bookie getting ready to break some legs about now, while I managed a respectable 3-1, missing only on my upset of the week (which, had I taken the points, I would have hit as well).
Our week 5 best bets:
My respectable 10-6 week in Week 4 dropped me even further behind Andy, as he hit on five of the seven games we picked differently to finish 13-3. He leads the season now 43-21 to 39-25. Five more games this week picked differently:
