2016 NFL Point Spread Picks - Week 7

Pick 1: Cincinnati -9.5 correct NFL point spread pick
Pick 2: Oakland +1 correct NFL point spread pick
Pick 3: Kansas City -6.5 incorrect NFL point spread pick
Pick 4: Indianapolis +3 correct NFL point spread pick

Ok that was a better 2nd week of betting and we did get a bit lucky on the Rams pick. This week AJ Green will get 3 TDs and help my first pick (and fantasy football team). The Raiders bring back Murray and the Jaguars' streak will end with a team that finally wants to win. The Chiefs defense will come out and quiet Brees and win by more than a touchdown. Finally, Luck and Hilton are starting to sync and should score more against Tennessee.

Increasing a bit to 17% of bankroll, each game gets a $435 bet. Enjoy your bets!

How to read the table:
  • Vegas Line: A NEGATIVE number implies the point spread favors the HOME team
  • Estimate: NFL Pickles' point spread prediction
  • Pred-Vegas: Subtraction: POSITIVE implies VISITING team will cover point spread.
  • Confidence: The probability that the point spread pick is on the correct side.

This is another week where our models don't see eye-to-eye. Fiftytwopointfour has the opposite side of each of your top four picks, Jaime. Hopefully we align soon!

Fiftytwopointfour's top 5 picks went 3-1-1 last week. This week, our most confident picks are:

Ravens (+1)
49ers (+2.5)
Titans (-2.5)
Rams (+2.5)

Good luck, everyone!

Thanks. Wish I had gotten 6 for KC somewhere else or bought the half point. Hope you did.
