Well my first week of predictions against the spread did not go so well. Before I get into that though here is this weeks picks followed by last week’s results from week 2 in the CSR Blogger straight up game predictions.
Week 9 Picks
Week 5 | Evan | Jaxon | Erik | Blogger Summary | Comment |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Week 5 | Evan | Jaxon | Erik | Blogger Summary | Comment |
Atlanta at Carolina | Panthers | Panthers | Panthers | 4-8 | I think the Panthers defense gets some revenge on the falcons. |
Indianapolis at Houston | Texans | Colts | Texans | 1-11 | Colts sneak up on the Texans still reeling from the loss of QB DeShaun Watson |
Cincinnati at Jacksonville | Bengals | Jaguars | Jaguars | 2-10 | Jags defense is way too much for the Bengals offense |
Tampa Bay at New Orleans | Saints | Saints | Saints | 0-12 | Saints are on a roll, Bucs are not |
Los Angeles Rams at New York Giants | Rams | Rams | Rams | 12-0 | Rams playing well and the Giants are making due at best |
Denver at Philadelphia | Eagles | Eagles | Eagles | 0-12 | Eagles are the best team in football right now |
Baltimore at Tennessee | Ravens | Ravens | Ravens | 7-5 | I like the Ravens D even in Nashville |
Arizona at San Francisco | Cardinals | 49ers | Cardinals | 3-9 | I feel a 49ers win on the heels of excitement for Garapollo even if he doesn't play |
Washington at Seattle | Seahawks | Seahawks | Seahwaks | 0-12 | Seahawks playing better and better; adding Duane Brown sure helps |
Kansas City at Dallas | Chiefs | Cowboys | Chiefs | 8-4 | The Chiefs weakness is run defense and Zeke Elliot gets to play |
Oakland at Miami | Raiders | Dolphins | Raiders | 10-2 | I think the Dolphins play better with Cutler back and Ajayi gone |
Detroit at Green Bay | Lions | Packers | Lions | 10-2 | Packers pull one out at home on MNF |
Erik held onto the top spot but is now tied with Ivan who had a good week getting 13 of 16 correct.

My 3 pick Parlay of the Week last week was an awful 1-2 as only the Broncos won. The late scratch of Sam Bradford doomed my Vikings pick and the Falcons just shellacked the Packers. Geez...I’m hoping to do better this week.
Lock of the Week: Seahawks (+3) cover vs the Titans
Yes I picked the Titans to win straight up but I also think the Seahawks cover the three points. That is a pretty tight prediction so let’s go with 19-17 Titans.
