Week 13- 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 12 Results 1-4

What a brutal week! Mom said there would be days likes this. I didn’t like last week’s card and it showed. My most confident pick was the Ravens- at least I nailed that one. They won in a laugher and saved me from getting a goose egg. Lamar Jackson could carry them to the title. The Raiders didn’t show up in New York. The Lions lost to the hapless Redskins led by rookie QB Dwayne Haskins- unreal! New England was close but couldn’t muster enough offense to cover against Dallas. The Steelers got hooked by the Bengals. QB Mason Rudolph was pulled for being lousy again. I feel much better about this week’s card. We’ll see how it goes.
