Not ideal to go below .500 in the first week you start blogging your picks. It hurts even more when you drop a spot in the season rankings. The real winner this week was Vegas , the lines were spot on (How do they do it??). Three! of my losses were within 0.5 points! Three points is the difference between going 6–8 and 9–5.

My Favorite thing I got right

Green Bay -6.5 I was dead right about 9. J.J. isn’t ready and I don’t know if he ever will be. Could the Vikings call their ex girlfriend (Danny Jones) this offseason and ask for forgiveness? They may certainly think about it if J.J. plays like this

I’m still not convinced the Packers are at that contender level, but there certainly a good team.

My Favorite thing I got wrong

Bucs +6.5 The Rams really are the best team in the league and I don’t think its close at the moment. Baker didn’t have a great game and I think he is hurt. The only upside was that this game was over in the first quarter so you didn’t have to watch the rest of the game.

Next Week …

This week is special. Thanksgiving week, we boost the weekly pot in the Sleeper league a little extra. I could use a top 3 as I am down overall in the weekly contests. Let’s get a win.
