Pick 2: NY Giants -3
Pick 3: Buffalo +6
Pick 4: Arizona -10
Pick 5: Carolina +1
As the struggles continues, this week we get 5 visiting teams with above threshold confidence. There are a few that worries me but if I take them out I put emotion into them. Probably Carolina should be removed given Romo but underdogs? I like that, plus I want a Turkey pick. All the others I could probably talk either way about how they 'look good' but until this turns around I'll just avoid the chat.
This week we'll bet 20% of bankroll split evenly across the 5 picks to give us a bet of $300 per game. Good luck everyone and happy Thanksgiving!
