NFL Week Six Picks

Things started out well last week, but they didn't quite hold up as the games unfolded. In the early games, I won 5 out of 7 games both straight up and against the spread. But then during the late games things went terribly wrong. I ended up losing 2 of 6 both straight up against the spread in the late games. Things didn't get much better on Monday Night when Miami came back late and scored to cost me both straight up and against the number. So, my final tally for the week ended up being an identical 7-7 record both straight up, which is by far the worst I've done yet, and against the spread. Bringing my season record to 49-26 straight up and 37-38 against the spread. Which means I'm still fighting to get above .500 against the bookies. At least this week the spreads aren't quite as ridiculous as they have been the past couple weeks, although there are a few big ones. (READ THE ENTIRE POST ON HUBPAGES)
