11-2

Nov 19

Posted by

 

 

11-2 this week against the spread with Green Bay, Tampa Bay, and San Diego all narrowly covering.  I’ve got Chicago tonight +5.5 with a predicted total of 51 as a tie breaker.  I don’t really think they are going to get anywhere close to 51, but I’m also not about to abandon the system that got me an 11-2 week.  So, I’m predicting San Francisco 27-24 tonight with the Bears covering in a loss.

Baltimore vs Pittsburgh

Nov 19

Posted by

I’m in two different NFL pools, and the spreads lock at different times during the week.  Early in the week Baltimore was +3.5, and by the end of the week Pittsburgh was +3.5.  So, I have Baltimore +3.5 in one pool, and Pittsburgh +3.5 in the other.  Winning both would be nice, and looks very possible right now.
