Week 7- WestGate Supercontest Picks

***Disclaimer- these picks are for fun and to see how bad I do. If you wager - only bet what you can afford to lose. Always assume you’re going to lose. Never risk the mortgage, rent, or your kid’s college education. There is NO such thing as a sure thing- especially with my lousy picks. If you risk more than you can afford and lose- that’s on you. I told you so! In the Supercontest - you must pick 5 games each week- whether you like them or not. I may not like some games but I still have to pick 5 so keep that in mind. Their rules not mine.

The 2018 winner beat out 3,122 other participants. Typically it takes around a 65% winning pct to have a shot at winning it all. In 2018 the winner went 70% against the spread- just unbelievable! Anyway I just want to do this for fun and see how it goes.

Week 6 Results 1-4

What started out so promising ended up in a crash and burn. Hopes of going 5-0 after a nice late cover by New England on Thursday night went down in flames on Sunday. Washington was in control of the game and then for some incredibly stupid reason, Miami, a team that’s trying to tank mind you, pulled QB josh Rosen from the game and put in veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick. Had I known that I never would have picked the Redskins. The Dolphins almost won it, but their comeback was enough to cover and ruin my Redskins pick. Dan Quinn should be fired. How Atlanta lost to the Cardinals is baffling. Equally baffling is the Chargers losing at home to the Steelers 3rd string QB. I missed the Packers game. I was on a date. Apparently the Lions deserved to win. Maybe the Packers felt a let down after beating the Cowboys in Dallas. Their WR core got pretty banged up. I have no answers except now you know why I put my disclaimer in every week. On to week 7.
